    HCP and I agree to insult each other with humor....like mags and I used to...we like each other's insults because it's just light hearted...I'm willing to have this arrangement with anyone here ....I don't mind insults that make me laugh...jlprk makes me laugh...Sly makes me laugh...barfo makes me laugh...it's why I frequent the forum really....it's not what you say....it's more how you say it. Friends can smack talk in good spirits...it's the ugly angst that sucks...I thought at one time it might be a good thing here to have likes listed by number and without names....people get angry sometimes because I like somebody's post that they are arguing with....that could change the hatfield McCoy vibe that seems to have rooted itself in here like a session of Congress

    Please don't lump us all into one group. Besides I've heard this place was getting bad before O-Live closed down.

    Ya know, when ya have a Prez who has lowered the bar so far on insults etc, is it a surprise that many forum members have "lowered the bar" as well? I mean we can say whatever we want right, with little to no consequences? For me its a sad sign of the times. Be nice if we all tried to be better and show some respect.

    I think it’s kind of a microcosm of where the team is at. A lot of the people in here posting at this point are passionate about the Blazers, but the season didn’t end the way anyone wanted it too. There are a lot of strong willed passionate people who have very different opinions on how to make the team better next year and moving forward. I bet when the Blazers are winning or have a successful season the tone around here is different.

    @SlyPokerDog If we want to insult someone can we still say something along the lines of "Fuck You SlyPokerDog" or "SlyPokerDog is an ASSHOLE" even if it is pretty obvious we aren't talking about you.

    Like others have mentioned, sometimes people just need to call someone an asshole.

    Corrective action would certainly help, but I won't hold my breath on that happening soon. :lol:

    This is very true and further more, some posters will disappear when winning happens but resurface when losing happens. This makes the winning times even more peaceful.

    In the Similar threads at the bottom there is a pretty similar thread from 2013. Just pointing it out.

    I'd prefer that you don't insult anyone but if you really need to.... and I am an asshole.

    Yeah and I’m fairly new here and opinionated so maybe I am also making excuses for my self too. O-live had its moments as well. I try to steer clear from letting things get personal, but it happens.
    I just wanted to point out that when the Blazers are in the conference finals next year we will be better behaved heh.
