Chanel was called a troll for his essays on how rj sucked and meLo is called a troll cause he thinks randle was better than kat. And some posters take it way too personal.

Yet its okay for mp and nodope and iron to talk mad sht about thibs cause thats the consensus around here.

Its not constant spamming or agenda trolling. This is a basketball forum were we have really intelligent posters who understand the nuisances and stats of the game and that boy is nice fans who like to crack jokes and an artist with crazy photoshop skills and also meLo.

I was about to say you sound like one of my hippy friends who cant keep a healthy relationship and is trying to justify their disorder and loser ways.

Basically youre getting closer and closer to joining the militia. Which if this war gets crazy the north cascades is prolly a great place to hide out in.

Think about it.

Perfect example. Jimmits constant spamming and lack of arguments did him in. We gave him plenty of leeway.

Chanel is not a troll and brought in well thought out arguments. Don’t think he ever even got a warning or ban. He brings great content to the forum that sparks legit debates.

So that’s the difference. A ton of people had bad things to say about RJ and weren’t banned.

KAT vs Randle can def be argued, just doesn’t belong in every single thread. A ton of people bring up Kats flaws which are certainly fair game. People could talk about Thibs flaws, Brunsons flaws, you can talk about Mikals flaws, etc as they are relevant to the games being played.

The Randle talk just spammed too often in too many threads that weren’t even about Randle. A lot of times they weren’t even arguments and just troll bait posts which was the bigger issue. I mean, we even did let a lot of these things go on, but like Icarus flying towards the sun they just took it too far.

It’s unfortunate because it undermines the foundations of this message board. This is not about basketball anymore, so they’ve basically ruined it. I’ve said it before, it is beyond repair imo. The Towns trade was obviously great for us, we know now that the Bridges trade was market value, Randle has proven himself to still be the same bum he was with us and now we said, “no thanks, we don’t want Durant at all”, while they wanted to give them towns for him :noway: the problem has always been the audacity and tone despite obviously being wrong. And you know, Durant is certainly an incredible player and this Houston team, to me at least, looks like a very serious contender, but the Knicks were obviously right for collecting and now sticking with our core.

This is the typical BS we are talking about. Comments like this, that are fanning the flames with lies and then acting like there's no reason to have rules in place. Nice work.

Me agreeing with the mods and calling out the problems that everyone else had with the board is not hating chaos and, you're implying that I have a problem with jokes. Simply not true. FFS I was part of the chaos that was spawned by the trolling of board. I have since learned not to be a part of that BS. I was going through my own personal tragedy that admittedly found it's way in here in the form of aggression. I'm healing though. I can recognize my contribution to the problem.

Keep up the good work. You can stay a part of the problem if you want. Just keep it in here bro. I'll see my way out. Talk all the shyt you want behind my back in here. It only reinforces my point.

I'll find the discussions worth having elsewhere on this site. Thankfully I won't have to sift through twenty pages and baby BS to have those discussions anymore.

This thread is garbage. Good day sir. The room is yours.

I agree Chanel isnt a troll. He is an intelligent poster who "knows ball" but he was harassed and labeled a troll by the same posters here who strongly disagreed with his takes.

And to the point which you brought up i. Your first post being whats the limit and range that is acceptable is the issue here. Cause some posters would let the fck thibs ammo fly and rarely was it met with derision but any randle > kat stuff would send posters.

The problem is a lot of the posters complaining about it did the same sht. As evidence by the lack of self awareness by certain posters in this thread.

And honestly like ICH said this issue really doesn't bother me as much as mods jumping on post with a wall of blue text cause its "derailing".

circling back real quick we're going to argue thibs vs new coach all year and this kat vs randle, gallo vs chandler, ect, ect will live on cause thats whats we do here. We pick sides (except me cause I like to be allusive)

Been a long dark road brother. I'm getting there.

I hope you don't sense any aggression in these replies. You're one of my favorite posters. I enjoy the point/counterpoint aspect of the board. The ball busting. Some of the chaos is fun too but, it was getting way out of hand and needed to be reeled in. I haven't seen any instances of over correcting but, if that's the case, it is to be expected with the shyt show this place was becoming. I think the mods did what was necessary honestly. Including a few of my bans. It was just getting a little one sided with the bans and the board really did suffer as a result of all of the beefs. It's a better place when some control is enforced.

Hats off to Cap for getting the ball rolling, while providing a space where we can go a little ham and not ruin the place while doing it. Win/win. I believe that's the reason we are where we are now. The board is probably losing post counts to an extent but, the quality of the posts are better. Perhaps that will inspire people to rejoin the discussion. We have already heard from a few posters that they are back as a result. I'm down with that. Just make sure to sprinkle some chaos in when you can bro. :lol:

We're always good. Even when when we're not. I've worked real hard, painful lesson of parenting, that its not personal - even when it feels like it is.

Im truly glad things are on the up. Its fcking hard out there - the fcking grind. And this place should be an escape from it. I get that some have to blow off steam here. And Im also painfully aware that some(a lot) dont find me charming.

The Randle talk just spammed too often in too many threads that weren’t even about Randle. A lot of times they weren’t even arguments and just troll bait posts which was the bigger issue. I mean, we even did let a lot of these things go on, but like Icarus flying towards the sun they just took it too far.


I agree Chanel isnt a troll. He is an intelligent poster who "knows ball" but he was harassed and labeled a troll by the same posters here who strongly disagreed with his takes.

And to the point which you brought up i. Your first post being whats the limit and range that is acceptable is the issue here. Cause some posters would let the fck thibs ammo fly and rarely was it met with derision but any randle > kat stuff would send posters.

The problem is a lot of the posters complaining about it did the same sht. As evidence by the lack of self awareness by certain posters in this thread.

And honestly like ICH said this issue really doesn't bother me as much as mods jumping on post with a wall of blue text cause its "derailing".

circling back real quick we're going to argue thibs vs new coach all year and this kat vs randle, gallo vs chandler, ect, ect will live on cause thats whats we do here. We pick sides (except me cause I like to be allusive)


not to be a fed and lord knows i've never reported anyone but the same posters complaining about it, are doing it right now in the knicks coaching search thread.

It’s unfortunate because it undermines the foundations of this message board. This is not about basketball anymore, so they’ve basically ruined it. I’ve said it before, it is beyond repair imo. The Towns trade was obviously great for us, we know now that the Bridges trade was market value, Randle has proven himself to still be the same bum he was with us and now we said, “no thanks, we don’t want Durant at all”, while they wanted to give them towns for him :noway: the problem has always been the audacity and tone despite obviously being wrong. And you know, Durant is certainly an incredible player and this Houston team, to me at least, looks like a very serious contender, but the Knicks were obviously right for collecting and now sticking with our core.


The audacity... you call randle a bum, who helped lead his team to the WCF and then have the unmitigated gall to act like the paragon of posters. And act like others who post like YOU do are the problem.

To be real clear idgaf that you call Randle a bum or that you want to talk a lil sht for hating on the mikal trade but to whine about the quality of the board when YOU are apart of this "mess" is what is truly absurd.
