QUESTION FOR DABODS!!! 

Post#1 » by 51X3RF4N » Sun Jul 6, 2008 3:04 am

I can't PM you back, so I did this instead. Hope it's no problem.

I just want to know what kind of language is unacceptable....the guy called me out with the way I type. Is that acceptable? I simply told him I'm not going to change. And that I honestly didn't know my writing was so hard to get.

But we really don't know for sure if he can't shoot the 3. He hasn't shot it much. Maybe he comes out this year and hits for 35-40%? We just don't know for sure, that's the trouble with only seeing him for like, half a season. Plus with offseason improvements, he may flourish.

In terms of knowing what Iggy and Miller will do when the defense focuses on them, I disagree.

Adding Thad and Smith to the offensive side of the ball this season will change all of that. They will not be able to focus on Miller and Iggy because as soon as they do, we find Thad or Smith open for inside scoring or drives to the hole, which in turn frees up Miller and Iggy. I think we were missing the true offensive abilities of Young last season, and if it finally shows through this season, along with adding Smith's offense, we could very well push Iggy to the #3 option (even though we don't play like that)...Plus, lineups with LW, Carney, Smith and WG off the bench give us good offensive potential as well. More options, more threats, more weapons, frees up MIller/Iggy to sink easy buckets. It just seems to me like adding Smith and Young(I say adding Young because his offense has yet to bloom, and I think it will this season from the 3 spot if Smith is signed) brings us 2 more weapons we didn't have before."

"Dude you need to organize your thoughts a little more. My brain hurts try to comprehend what you just wrote..."


"LOL maybe you just need to comprehend a little better. It's not that hard. Plain and simple english. How did you have trouble reading and understanding that? Not my problem.

I said Thad is unproven. Maybe he is better next year. I said adding Smith adds offense, which is good. I said maybe Thad is a better 3pt shooter, we don't know yet. I said we have decent offense coming off the bench. I said adding offense takes pressure off our main guys from last year, the Andres. And I said all of this adds up to more success.

Was it that unclear or unorganized?

I guess I will simplify my posts from now on so that you can understand them...how bout this to replace all that?:

I want Smith.

DUH.

I'm not going to change the way I speak or type just to dumb it down for others."


I want to know how that is unacceptable compared to HALF the CRAP that SendEm SPEWS on a DAILY basis. Please tell me. Does he get PM's from mods for half of his posts???? If you say yes to this and he is still not BANNED, then I know either you are lying or I have no worries to go on and post the same way I did. That's all that bothers me. He has been suspended multiple times, and has one shot left before a ban...and yet continues to bash people and posters alike, saying FAILURE and laughing at other posters nonstop thinking his opinion is all that matters, and yet is still around.

I'd love to know how.

And yet I was told in a PM from a different mod than dabods that he had one more shot and any personal attacks would result in an IP ban.....well....

FAILURE.

A couple things:
1) Everything is done personally. Just because you received a warning does not mean that the other parties did not as well.
2) Whether or not someone baited you is irrelevant. You are responsible for how you respond. This is not an eye for an eye society. We are civilized here. If you are provoked or attack, you report the post, and you prove that you are the better man and do not return the favor.
3) This forum is not up for debate on the merits of other poster.
4) You may email me at realgm@phillyarena.net if you wish to debate something.
