    Why would you ban someone for calling us idiots or losers? Let their own words speak for the people they are. When did we become such Nancy-boys?

    Yes, Nate. I care. I care deeply.

    What I fucking care about is that we have a community where people can say what they wish. Banning people is a coward's way out of a discussion. We were ass-raped in San Antonio last night like a newbie in Brownsville. If some Spurs fans want to train us as a follow up while we're lying prostrate on the ground, so be it. Fight back or take the abuse and be their bitch. Don't run to the prison guard.

    Beating their chest is fine. Personal insults and obscene pictures are not. People can get in trouble for pictures of people defecating on their computer. And I have been very public in my stance against personal insults. It's why a lot of us left Oregonlive. Years and years of personal feuds and insults with very little basketball discussion going on.

    Again, read through the threads. Read all of the thrash talking that was left. Actually all of it was. I banned one person for personal insults and Nate banned one person for obscene pictures. We're not eliminating Spurs fans or saying anyone can't talk shit or give the Blazers or us fans a bad time for losing last night.

    If you didn't care, you wouldn't constantly bitch about it and reassert this opinion of yours.

    I'll tell you what, make a thread, put it up for a vote. If I'm hurting this forum or making it not enjoyable for people I will leave. That is truly the last thing I would want to do. If I've gone too power hungry and too full of my own importance I don't belong around here. I mod like mod and I don't see myself changing anytime soon.

    I've got some meetings to go to so I won't be around for a few hours.

    Are you fucking retarded? Can you not read? I told you what I care about, and it's not you, other than where your insecurities color the kind of mod you are.

    You and I have a different opinion about how this board should operate. And you're damn right I'll continue to state my opinion until I get banned for doing it. If you don't like it, ignore my posts or get rid of me.

    You're an emotional person Max. You should really calm down and take some deep breaths.

    Well, this is a forum where we discuss Blazers basketball. And we're playing the Spurs--not well, mind you--but that's who we're playing.

    More opinions are superior to fewer opinions. Trolling is fine as those being trolled have the power to stop it if they don't like it. The last thing we want to become is some circle-jerk echo chamber where we just make ourselves feel better. I like to talk hoops. If those threads are peppered with insults, what's the big deal? I've been called names before.

    Well, I have a low opinion of stupidity. And right now, you're either being intentionally obtuse or you should think about getting a padded helmet and Tri-Met bus pass.

    You can go to a Spurs forum or a general NBA forum for that if you want.

    Why are you going to keep sharing your opinion on how the forum should be run? Every one already knows what your opinion is, and you're not going to change anything with it, so why don't you just shut up? All you are is annoying.

    So you post this

    And then you follow that up with this, this, this, and this.

    Clearly there is an immature poster in this thread, but it isn't me.

    Hilarious. I love this tactic of "I don't like what you're saying, so I want to dictate what and where you say it."

    I'm reminded of the scene in "Ted" where the bear goes to the fridge, grabs a beer and sees it's a Michelob Ultra Tuscan Orange Grapefruit: "My God...America is imploding."

    You are that bottle of Michelob.

    I believe the word you're looking for is hypocritical.

    You know what I find? People that talk about being more intelligent than others are extremely insecure about their own intelligence.
