RealGMs standards arent equal for fans

Recently i got a 2 day ban for saying:

ninjabelly wrote:lakers fans still not over vetoed trade i see


I admit it might be baiting, but lakers fans were talking like the trade was horrible and obviously trolling, plus it's nothing compared to half the stuff posted about the heat and our fans daily, i'm going to post a ton of proof here(even though i'll probably be locked or banned for it) because i noticed a couple other heat fans talking about it saturday vs the bulls and how bulls mods recklessly ban heat fans.

Example 1.

Brenice wrote:Does being the leader of the championship team factor in? Kobe led the Lakers. Dirk led the Mavs. LeBron.led....excuse me...my bad, LeBron couldn't take the pressure...Wade has/will lead the Heat.


How is this not baiting? he's clearly trying to get heat fans to react.

Example 2.

Jedi wrote:I would honestly consider going after Wade and trying to hurt him early to level things up. Hopefully Thibodeau is thinking the same thing.


Seriously this is beyond baiting and should be auto ban, but he was a bulls fan so it's ok i guess.

Example 3.

dice wrote:not 6, not 7, not 8...but zero. just a friendly reminder


This was on a heat game day thread, he got a verbal warning for it and was banned for less than i was afterwards for calling heat mods trash, that's beyond baiting.

Example 4.

BooRadley wrote:Actually sounds loud in Miami. Is the announcer playing crowd noise?


I guess attacking other teams fan bases directly is ok now?

Example 5.

MVP Rose wrote:lol do the Heat have flop sessions in practice?


This guy has been attacking Heat players and fans since he's been here, haven't seen him warned once though!

Example 6.

MVP Rose wrote:LMAO chalmers. watch your ankles scrub


this one isnt so bad, still seems inappropriate though by the rule standards, seems like baiting.

Example 7.

DrewBynum77 wrote:"head is part of the ball"

if you are playing against the heat, obviously.


A lakers fan that always bashes and tries to bait heat fans.

Example 8.

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1157118

This one is the one that irks me most, it lasted 4 pages and is clearly trying to bait heat posters by accusing heat of unfair ref treatment, and then 4 prominent bulls posters start talking about wade using steroids all of a sudden, if i had said that about rose id be gone in 5 seconds, but since its wade its ok?

Chicago-Bull-E wrote:Check out the jawline on that pic of a young Wade. The things syringes do to you.


High0ctane21 wrote::lol::lol:Reminds me of David Boston, former WR in the NFL. His jaw got huge, and all of a sudden his face was too big for the helmet. A little while later he gets busted for steroid use.


ndnow wrote:Yer those bone building drugs are awful.


Pit Dog wrote:omfg LOL. Poor Wade, his fall from grace from beloved young superstar to grisly, post-roids crotchety villain has been an absolute hoot to watch. But hey, he does have a Finals trophy with a lowly, goofball expansion franchise, right? LOL!! :lol:


oh and inb4lock, but i dont think this should be locked, its a valid complaint, posters of other teams are constantly bashing our team and obviously trying to bait us, yet most get away with it.

and by the way a mod{UGA Hayes} posted on page 2 of that and let it go on.

Just move on and avoid posting in GB. IF you absolutely have to post in GB, don't post anything against Lakers or Bulls.

It's ok to bash LeBron and the Heat though, from what I see. Yes, this is a known problem but nothing you can do.

I can sympathize with this 100% the bias of some of the mods on RealGM is suspect to say the least. Won't name anyone specifically but I was recently singled out and received a 3 day ban for trolling on the GB in a thread that was filled Heat hate and baiting, but apparently I was the only one to receive punishment in that thread. I just don't get it.

Same happened to me in the general board. That place is full of haters man.. realgm has gone down to tubes IMO .. I remember back in the early/mid 2000's the general board wasn't like that. it was the BEST general NBA talk message forum on the internet.

That's how it is I'm afraid,since REALGM is comprised of mostly Raptors,NY and Chicago fans/mods so you will see a lot of bias as most of them hate the heat.You really have to be careful on what you say about Rose,Raptors or the Bulls or anything like that to avoid suspension. You see a whole bunch of posts on LeBron's hairline, Wade's Jaw him taking steroids and Bosh,etc with little or no consequences with it going like 10-20 pages but the minute you see a post/topic on Rose choking or him being overrated or something of that nature you will see that that topic ends up being locked or posters being suspended for "baiting".

Yeah that's what RealGM is, their only excuse is that Heat kind of brought it upon themselves, but honestly theres this double standart for Heat. Whatever, one ring to make them shut up :lol:

Pretty much. It's not going to change any time soon either.

Some of the mods here are as bad as the worst fans, which is sad. I don't even think the raptors board is that bad, but some of the Bulls and NY mods are highly erratic.

I rarely, if ever post on other teams boards.

GB once in a while, but I stay away from Heat-related topics since there's bound to be trolling in them.

On a brighter note, I got Kobe 24 Revis banned last night in the Mo Williams thread. Well done coolstorybro. :clap:

Same here. There's a "Why is Wade overrated?" thread right now that I don't even want to open.

Oh and great job getting him banned. Is that the guy that has like 20 million user names all involving Kobe?

I suggest going to the feedback board with this if you want to bring it to attention to those in power -

All you're going to get here is commiseration, and sooner or later someone will report you for complaining about mods

It's better now than it was right after the finals, btw. Usually, it's ball boys who like the feeling of "power" via posting on a message board - I mean, like they have any impact on their team anyway :lol:
