I can't say I didn't see it coming. He was almost spamming to make himself heard about all this, but that doesn't stop me from being pissed off about it.

The mods have it out for Bobcats' fans. That's the only reasonable answer.

Everybody, we need to chain ourselves to the next Jonas Valanciunas thread that pops up on the GB until they give us our equal rights.

It doesn't.



Seems like there's a lot of "it's okay to talk **** about the Bobcats because they're the Bobcats" going around. Members are supposed to be stupid, but the mods having this double standard is beyond (Please Use More Appropriate Word)

Update: advanced has been **** waived. Are the mods actually weak enough to go and WAIVE him for disagreeing? This **** is getting ridiculous.

The only way (most of) other fanbases would notice is if it starts happening to them as well. Yuri seems to be worried about his image or took something to heart as he is on a mission in the very same thread warning people (Hero from your quote included). Maybe we could actually help mods by clicking on exlamation marks 8-)

Most importantly I hope only our three mods rule this board.

Most of these people shouldn't be allowed to be mods. This is ridiculous. Almost as bad as the GameFAQs mods back in the day. If you've been there, you know what I'm talking about.

I have to say that Sachmo and Fats are pretty good mods. I have no idea why the GB mods are so, uh, inconsistent.

why you gonna dis slam like that? haha.

you guys have to realize how difficult of a job it is to moderate that general board. i would not want that job. the best thing you guys can do is to use the "report post" button that looks like an exclamation mark. if you post in a thread, make a contribution and not just some comment like kemba made. and try not to be a ridiculous homer because it gives all of us bobcats fans a bad name. we want to be known as a fanbase that is intelligent, thoughtful and fun, not a bunch of whinny homers.

in the meantime, i have reached out to get more info on kemba and advanced.

I don't remember having a bad mod on this Cats board, no matter if it is Fat, Sachmo, Walt before, even drunken Slam gets the job done.-) We have nice haven here.

I just realize that Howard Moss the site admin from the feedback board is active on Magic board. Maybe there is an origin of anti-bobcats bias although they swept us? Maybe some things don't change (they don't kiss Dwight Howard's ass anymore though). Raptors may be just bitter they couldn't send us Calderon for Diaw, who knows, and if realgm is their major gathering, then it gets all sorts of them unlike some not so active realgm boards. And Detroit, it seems to be a wave of only few individuals, I would see it as insecurity after that lost trade, ensuring themselves that their future is bright or at least brighter than those lowly Bobcats. Other than that it is just random trolls and bandwagonners (I mean primarily those having a nerve to go bananas in our game threads last year).

Not sure how far it already went so just for sure, a disclaimer: ass is a type of ungulate, a donkey for example, nothing wrong to see here.

Howard is a top bloke and as professional as they come. He has no bias.

advanced and kembawalker have been reinstated, however they are banned from the general board. assuming they are OK with those terms they are free to return to posting here. its the best we could do. advanced/kemba, if you are reading, check your PMs.
