Thunder stole my idea about Shakur

Dexmor · Post #1 » by **Dexmor** » Tue Mar 16, 2010 2:53 pm

Thunder picked up Mustafa Skakur who I said Bobcats should get a week ago. I rather have Hughes but we should of gotten both.
Oh well, good luck. He's not going back down, trust me.

I guess he is to replace Harden for a while while he rests that hammy?

That's a lot of PGs on their roster.

Westbrook
Maynor
Ollie

plus Harden can play there a little plus they had Livingston on their roster for a while too!

you are impossible to please dex.

first you scream about us not signing hughes fast enough, then you scream about us not signing mustafa, then we sign hughes and you proclaim we should sign him to a 5 year deal and he is our missing piece, then the thunder sign mustafa and you proclaim we should have signed both.

how in the world do you suggest we sign both? we have 15 players under contact. who are you going to cut to sign a dleague hack like mustafa? seriously, i am waiting to hear it.

Yes. I am also waiting to hear this. So much so that I quit lurking.

Guess who started 10 of the 22 threads on the first page of the board ?
No seriously though Dex, you could have kept this in your first thread about Shakur, same goes for all the threads about next offseason resignings/going over cap or not, which would have been kept together IMO. I'm not a mod, but I think it would be better to stop creating thousands of threads each time you have an idea, especially when they're already a thread talking about it (and even more when you're the creator of such thread

)

Maybe he should just get his special thread (similar to OT thread, could be even stickied if necessary) and then he shouldnt be allowed to start any other thread (or even better - not to post in any other thread). Bring good ol´ times back! I am voting for "Dexmor special thread", let him be a false VIP.

It really kills the board. Especially when almost all his threads inlude "I" in the title or at least "my something" like this one. Such a behaviour is a pest.

I know you can't hear tone on because it's writing but I was not screaming or actually upset. Maybe if the Bobcats couldn't resign Felts or get Ford and D.J. was starting with Sean Singleteray as a backup getting killed I would actually be upset but I was clearly posting this because I posted not 1 week before he was signed Mustafa Shukor should be signed.
I am extremely happy about Hughes and don't expect Shukor because of Hughes.
Don't make assumptions.

i am not really making an assumption regarding signing both. your original post said:

Dexmor wrote:Thunder picked up Mustafa Skakur who I said Bobcats should get a week ago. I rather have Hughes but we should of gotten both.

i was asking how you planned to sign both when we have a max of 15 players already.

Well the Thunder released Shakur without him ever appearing in a game.

I guess he wasn't overly impressive.

They learned the rule of don't listen to Dexmor the expensive way.

Am I reading this correctly? He got cut on the 9th day of a ten-day contract? That's cold....

Oh, I will.

The 25th was technically his 10th day.

What the hell is wrong with you guys? Ask yourselves why does it bother you to see a thread made when it could of went into another thread? Is the board flooded? Is there to many you can't read them all? This place is a freaking ghost town. Seriously im gonna make threads whenever the hell I want. Unless there is a specific thread already if I don't see a thread I will start it and being this is a MESSAGE BOARD and I am posting messages, if it bothers you you need to stop being such tight ace nazi's about it.
Get over it.

I don't think they are bothered about you starting a thread for this topic Dex - there is no problem there at all.

I think they are more pointing out what Shakur didn't last more than a 10 day in OKC.

chrbal · Post #16 » by **chrbal** » Fri Mar 26, 2010 8:50 pm

No, I give you **** on some of yours. A bunch of them are pretty good, but its the ones like "Will Bobcats resign Hughes-they better", before he even suits up a game.

Simple fact is, you're on the internet...you're either going to see **** or you're going to be given ****.

And if anyone thinks you are really bad, there was a guy before the Bobcats started off that would be make threads that were exact copies of other threads...he would just reword them. Can't think of the name, FatLever might. But it was over and over and over and over.
It would be like if you made a trade thread that said Catwoman was the worst movie ever, he would make a thread stating that Catwoman the movie his dislikes the most. And it was like that for about 1/2-2/3 of the new threads that would come up.

Then don't act like a crybaby when we are "Tight Ace Nazis" whatever it is. And thank you for calling us that.

You should consider visiting an ophthalmologist then.

Chrbal I don't care about people giving me stuff about opinions or even just busting balls but people actually get pissed at making threads and it is insane.

And slam I don't know if you saw the posts but people were getting pissed at my making threads. As for our other thing you wanted me to do, it's coming but ive been busy but I will get to it I promise.

thruthefire · Post #19 » by **thruthefire** » Sat Mar 27, 2010 12:28 am

The OT threads are by far the most ridiculous and unnecessary, because there's an OT thread at the top that always stays there. :lol:

Post #20 » by **fatlever** » Sat Mar 27, 2010 3:30 am

dex - please continue to be active and post all you want. all slam and i ask is that you at least check the first page to see if a similar topic exists before making a new one (for example, i believe there was an existing thread dedicated to larry hughes on the main page when you created a similar thread... also, try to keep OT stuff in the OT thread)

other posters - please leave the mod stuff (suggesting topics be merged etc..) to the mods.

thanks everyone.
