TROLL HERE! (Insults, trolls welcome) GOT A LOPSIDED TRADE? Post it here so we can sneer and lob derision at you..

[Jay81]

i would like the mods on this board to take care of me and bring back myJi profile. What i said on the heat board was not close to trolling. It was a basketball opinion.

[Induveca]

Pine, agreed try to help out Ji. The Miami mod Flash3 .. needs to be checked.

He has been suspending/waiving people on the general board as well for just speaking their mind. Not the brightest fellow to have representing the customer face of a company.

What can I do to help. PM me if you want to go back-channel.

[pineappleheadindc]

Actually, I heard it was because he refused the "enhanced" patdown...

I read a web interview with a TSA agent who complained about how folks didn't just realize how much he did NOT want to be "touching their scrotums."

It made me laugh because no matter how crappy my job can be sometimes, I never have to utter the phrase "touch strangers' scrotums" as part of my job description.

I couldn't find a good Ji weather thread that called for 6 feet of snow (and in real life resulted in 80 degrees and sunshine). So I'll use this thread -- which memorialized his Ji screen name banishment -- to gin up a couple of weather posts. Ji, if you're around, honestly -- how about some info on the weather front.

My amateur guess based solely on what I read on WP Capital Weather Gang is that, yup - snow and ice this weekend. Just about guaranteed. It's just after midnight as I type this (Friday night/Saturday morning) and I'm just in from the office. I'm gonna take a shower, make a sandwich and then I'm honestly going to the 24-hour Giant to restock our food.

1) The cupboard is kinda bare right now (we shop every week on Saturday morning and had family in earlier who ate me out of house and home).

2) I don't want to fight the crowds of folks tomorrow getting ready for the storm which is going to hit Saturday night or Sunday.

It's not that I'm worried about being snowed in for days on end without being dug out. The reason I'm going to get few supplies (beyond food -- batteries, etc) can be summed up in one acronym:

PEPCO

Snow and ice coming, gents. If you see me driving in the stuff and you want to live, stay off of the sidewalks.

Pine

P.S. Ji, I'm begging you, please come back to post your weather expertise. Please????

[mohammed10]

Thanks for necrobumping this thread.

So....is Ji reincarnated as Jay81 now or what?

[Knighthonor]

Hold the phone! Do we have the post that got Ji banned? That should be placed in the HOF thread stat!

In terms of getting banned it was pretty weak:

Lebron only 13 shots? WTF/// Lebron way better than Wade....he should not be shooting 13 times. Bosh just sucks. thats going to be a contract you regret

Finkle is Einhorn, though. Castor Troy is back under a new name.

Wiz go on a historic streak now. Can't decide if it'll be a winning or loosing [sic] one, though.

why would somebody get banned for that statement here on this forum?

I dont know this person.

[pineappleheadindc]

Ji, come back! (By the way, if you read this Ji, I don't think your "Ji" screen name is banned any more. When I go thru old threads, your status - under your screen name - says "analyst", not "banned").

It's snowing lightly in Cabin John, MD. But the light powdery stuff that you can't make good snowmen with. Perhaps 1/2 inch on the decks and cars, not sticking to the roads yet and lightly coating the grass.

Freezing rain and ice on the way.

[Jay81]

i have a weather page on facebook..check it out. Called this storm a week in advance:)

Bumpetty bump!

Boston: It's a wonder the pilgrims didn't hit Massachusetts and immediately turn back around.

[pineappleheadindc]

Let's all endeavor to keep this on the front page, preparing for the series with the Toronto America-lites.


EDITED TO ADD:

Ji/Jay -- did you ever check the status of your "Ji" username? As I mentioned a long while ago, I'm not sure that you're banned by that handle any more.

[Zonkerbl]

Could it have been a temporary "cool it!" ban?

Can someone enlighten me on the history of "Ji"?
Referenced a lot on these boards and I ALWAYS feel like its a big inside joke that I'm not in on. And honestly. that hurts a little.

He's the former incarnation of Jay81.

He has an odd fascination with forecasting weather, and he of course gets mercilessly pounded by the board whenever he is wrong. But his biggest claim to fame is in being a world class jinx. He had a stretch back in the Eddie Jordan era that whenever he started a thread, it was a guaranteed loss. It was truly uncanny. And it was made all the more infuriating because he constantly started game threads without giving anyone else a chance.

IIRC correctly, he ultimately redeemed himself by predicting that we would land the #1 overall pick in the John Wall lottery. When he started the lotto prediction thread, the board went apoplectic, but Ji had the last laugh.

Thanks nate. I feel like a real RealGM Wiz board member now. Like part of the gang. We're all friends now!

[Ruzious]

Ji also picked the local major storms more accurately and quicker than the professionals this winter/spring. It's almost like he knows what he's talking about.

If I could expand on Nate's comments a bit. Nate's a gentleman, so he'll be kind with his description of the Ji experience.

Ji isn't just a jinx. He's a JINX. Just about every game thread he'd start would guarantee a Wizards loss. As Nate says, it's uncanny.

And he wouldn't just JInx the team in a "normal" fashion (if there is such a thing). I swear, Ji would willfully and purposefully wait until the Wizards got a nice little winning streak going, maybe 3 in a row or so, then he'd swoop in to start a game thread in front of whoever had started game threads for the little winning streak and guarantee a loss. I swear he did it on purpose just for laughs.

I think Ji is actually a meteorologist IRL. It's scary for me to write this -- but I think he makes his living at weather forecasting. And, like his uncanny skill at killing Wizards winning streaks, Ji was (under his original screen name) horribly bad at weather forecasting. Not bad, but BAD.

He'd usually start new threads with titles such as "Historic Snowstorm Headed to DC Area on Tuesday!". And when Tuesday came, what would happen?









Yeah, it would never snow. Not only would it not snow, it would be clear and warm. He did it again and again, to the point where nobody would believe him.

And Ji was a troll in a good way. He knew where the line was. The worst he'd ever do was drop something like "Nice game, way to play guys". On a losing team's game thread. For something equally innocuous, another mod banned (suspended?) Ji. But I swear, his Ji screen name is still active.

Oh, and Ji had this habit of starting random, duplicative threads. Just because.

And that's the essence of Ji, "just because". Yeah, he's a JInx, yeah he screwed up weather forecast after weather forecast, yeah he was a sneaky troll, and yeah -- he'd just jam the front page with needless new threads. Why? Just because.

But through it all, he was and is OUR Ji. He never took umbrage to folks harassing him about his weather forecasting acumen, or his ability to JInx the Wizards or yelling at him for starting yet ANOTHER new thread about Eddie Jordan. No...he was and is a good-hearted poster and was (when he posted more) a really important member of the daily RealGM Wizards board community.

He posts now as Jay-something or another. But I wish he'd go back to his original screen name. And I wish he'd come back more regularly to post often. It's not the same board without Ji.

Lastly, Nate noted how Ji finally redeemed himself by calling the Wizards moving up in the lottery to get John Wall. I've found the thread and it (for us old timers) makes for fun reading. Link: viewtopic.php?f=35&t=1011900
