Yesterday 

Post#1 » by Howard Mass » Sat Jul 12, 2014 3:53 pm

RealGM Miami Heat Forum Posters,

I want to thank everyone for how they handled themselves yesterday. You are all true fans and not the bandwagon jumpers that are out there.

In this week's addition of Mass Dispatch, I warned users not to troll this forum no matter what happened with LeBron James.

Unfortunately, 28 users decided not to take my advice and trolled this forum yesterday during a difficult time for this fan base.

Those 28 users are all now suspended for 7 days and will receive an individual Board Ban from our Miami Heat Forum. This means when they log in, they do not see anything in between our Memphis Grizzlies and Milwaukee Bucks Forums.

While everyone knows I am not a Miami Heat Fan by any means and did want LeBron James to go back to Cleveland, I have your backs and keep my promises.

Your all wonderful fans and it's great to have you a part of this community.

Thank You!
R.I.P. Dharam Raghubir (A.K.A. Magnumt)

If Miami can withstand hurricanes, then all those trolls mean nothing no matter how hard they try.

But it ain't finished yet.

I expect a lot of trolling today.

Only 7 day suspension? Thought it would merit a Permaban from RealGM.

Trolling a fan base, on their own board, against the rules of the forum, on the day they lose the best player in the league. Heat fans have been permabanned from RealGM for a lot less. But what do I know.

Really appreciate it. Was a tough time for everyone.

Sports should bring us together rather than act like 3rd graders.
This isn't tmz or any other crap site.

We come here to discuss basketball. Let's leave the trolling to the kiddos on fb

Thanks for issuing such rules Howard even one less troll post is better than anything. Since LeBrons leaving this board has continued to post in masses in Heat support, it's great to see users still staying strong (whether GB people think the heat fans all died or not).

As for Heat mods and the guys who came back part time, you all are great :).
