Especially when there wasn't anything wrong with that particular post. This thread is for the GM-a-Team game, we have a general discussion/think tank stickied, and he's since posted it there.

Was anything incorrect? Was I namecalling?

I made that comment because you were being condescending too. You had no idea what you were talking about and called out a move I was making. Even though you were wrong. You then called me out on another thread, even though I had already fixed my mistake.

Arrogant, "Overbearingly assuming." Condescending, "showing or implying a usually patronizing descent from dignity or superiority."

It's pretty clear to me that the "mod" title has gone to your head and you feel like you can go around condescending posters when they make mistakes, like posting into the wrong thread. You roam around attacking small mistakes from "regular posters." I don't think that's really the point of being a moderator.

Take it to PMs. We're done discussing this out here.

What are peoples thoughts about trades for nothing? Personally, at the very least I think a heavily protected future 2nd should be involved

Na i don't mind a player being traded for nothing as long as he doesn't have huge value if its just a min player i don't think it should matter


A suggestion that im throwing out there is making having an AIM account mandatory.....makes it so much easier to deal....

I don't have a problem with it. teams look to create TE's, dump players, etc. I am actually surprised we don't see it more in the NBA.

This is why mandating an aim account isn't worth it. Some people don't have the time, or don't take the time to use it. Everyone uses email.

Also, some people's main computer access might be at work, where AIM could either be blocked, or they are not allowed to download programs on their company computers.

Couldn't have said it any better myself. Some people may want to play, and not have access or want AIM. Sambone used to be like that, but he always checked his emails so it was fine. My LA team is still better though.

ok, so since the game is over now, we should schedule a new one to start at the end of July? A month off and by that time most of the free agents will have been signed. Or do we want to start another one around July 8th-12th after the big names have signed?
