Just saw that a MOD used the term "Trumpesque" in a post on the GB.

This post was deemed to NOT be trolling a fan base.

Can we get some clarification as to what actually is trolling a fan base?

Bear in mind this is a road b2b and 3 games in 4 nights for the Warriors. It's as bad a scheduling disadvantage as you get. Still, they should be much better in the 2nd half if they can cut the lead a bit early. If not they'll throw it in to enter the 4th.

Can we bring in a rule where anyone who says “not even a true rookie” gets a 24 hour suspension?

Thx

So this seems to be wildly popular and active forum. Locking up threads (basketball related!) which was discussed in respectful and non confrontational manner on GB and moving “discussion” topic here smells like censorship because this is as dead as dead can be.

Suggestion for GB mods; rather than merging threads, can we just get duplicate locked and a link to the main thread?

Using the Jimmy Butler thread as an example of merging sucks, the thread jumped by 25+ pages overnight, but the posts from each thread are randomly dispersed throughout the new super thread. This is a pain in the ass if you have read all of one thread but not the other.

I don't know why this is so controversial ,

This forum is here for us to talk about sports and really only sports. There are tons of political forums where you can discuss politics if you want to , heck I post on one but I come on here so I can talk and debate about sports not politics. Sports to me is a breath of fresh air away from politics and I like the fact that Realgm wants to keep it that way and hope it stays that way.

No talking about basketball in the Current Affairs policy thread! No, j/k, in general, I agree it can be frustrating if two large threads are merged. Ideally if mods are around and there is already a big thread, and a new smaller one starts, the smaller one should be merged if similar.
