Forum Behavior and Personal Attacks

[The Chosen One]

Let it be known, we escaped from Scout because we were treated unfairly and because Patio ran that place upside down.

We formed a community here to have fun and talk braves baseball, other stuff without fear of the hammer.

I think I've run this place and invisionfree pretty leniently, because I feel the more open discussion we have the better. I'm not going to single or alienate a user for having a difference of opinion.

What I WILL not tolerate is personal bickering past a certain extent and trolling.

We're all grown ups here, act like it. A personal insult and a comeback is one thing, but dragging it on into 2-3 pages destroys a thread and turns off people. That's what we aimed to go away from, and that's what we as a community will not tolerate here.

You know who you are. I am not going to let anyone come here and start a huge riot. We've had nearly a 2 month solid run of posting and having fun away from all the drama.

Unlike Patio, I'm actually telling the truth. I can't give credit to the mods because the only mods I have are me and Meta and he is only on here when we're all asleep anyways. The users themselves have behaved and moderated themselves to where I haven't had to step in and take action.

But like I said, I WILL ABSOLUTELY NOT TOLERATE THE PERSONAL ATTACKS AND SUCH. I specifically have the Wild Wild Joe West forum for that. Do not bring it into the main forum here. I do not want to ban any of you, because I've been posting with most of you since I was 11-12 years old. I've known a lot of you longer than I know a lot of my friends and co-workers in real life. We are a very close community here, and any attempts at trying to sabotage that will be dismissed appropriately.

Stupid white people.

Speaking of this... where has Temo been?

I don't know. I thought he was in the NBA thread in a bit?

This message doesn't apply to 99% of the board, lol

The only time it happened was this afternoon.

[skidlee]

Sorry about that.

[BremanFan88]

You're all a bunch of knuckleheads.

[The Chosen One]

Temo has yet to apply here.

[The Chosen One]

And fwiw, I hope the mods from there who are posters here do not take offense to what I wrote. I'm sure a lot of you guys genuinely did your job to the best of your ability, but you had no control over the guy who was above you.

I'm speaking to tvsportscaster, nsacpi, and others.

Everybody here knew patio was full of crap with that mod appreciation thread. Saying activiy was "growing" when clearly it wasn't (the pulpit hadn't been posted on in 3 weeks, the bbq in 2, and the home page only had about 6-8 active threads).

PD actually put up that post the day after I handed in my resignation. Maybe I am a little self centered but I always thought that was a parting shot towards me.

[elmonthc]

Temo is rich now. Hes too good for us.

[Hulavol]

For my first post over here, I'd like to comment that all of you just suck.

[TURBO]

I love you guys

What is this all about? I hope its not over what we were debating.

[weso1]

A simple hello would have sufficed, but either way welcome to the board.

[Julio3000]

In retrospect, I really wish my very first post over here had been, simply, "Feel me"

[Dalyn]

I go away for the weekend and the whole ****house goes up in flames. :pimp:

I love you guys.

[Julio3000]

What is this all about? I hope its not over what we were debating.
No. From another thread.

[NinersSBChamps]

Who are all these new folks? I don't recognize these names anymore.

[ChapelHillMatt]

Nope

It's a result of the argument between AA and Skidlee

[weso1]

I've been taking mma classes just in case things get out of hand on this board.

[TURBO]

Which is a good thing. We want to grow these forums. This is an awesome community.

[NinersSBChamps]

I don't believe I was privy to that. Was it yesterday during the game?

[TURBO]

I tried to defuse the situation.

[NinersSBChamps]

Good because when you, TURBO, and myself go to the mall since we are a clique...you can defend us from other mall cliques.

[ChapelHillMatt]

Nope

It's in the pitching rotation thread.

[Dalyn]

Nope

It's in the pitching rotation thread.


Did they argue over who gets to be pitcher and who gets to be catcher?

[Julio3000]

Y'all best stay in the food court. Everything west of Sunglass Hut is my turf. Feel me

[Mrs. Meta]

What is sex?

[Julio3000]

He's a one-man clique.

[Dalyn]

Hope this helps. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5E5NI0vDGhM)

[nsacpi]

Something that can give you STDS

[Julio3000]

An online baseball forum is probably the wrong venue for that question.

Hell no. I handled that ****.

So much rep.

[AUTiger7222]

Thanks for the thread Sav.

Thanks for finally putting your avatar up thethe.

[Julio3000]

I'm pretty sure that coach taught the boys that personal attacks are normal and healthy part of adolescence.

[Julio3000]

So much rep.

Coach, my rep feels kind of funny and tingly. Is it ok to touch it?

[Mrs. Meta]

... From behind, maybe!

[jpx7]

This thread in no way constitutes "Actual Baseball Discussion Here". I call shenanigans. Shut the whole thing down.

Hey, we count on you to be literary, not literal.

[The Chosen One]

Some of you are out of control.

Mutiny?

This is madness.

Kwai not?

Well done

Everybody's in a clique and I'm just sitting here jerking it at an Orange Julius.

[Metaphysicist]

What is sex?

I suppose I've been negligent in my duties.

[weso1]

Well, you are married.

Winner.

Most. Archetypical. Mall location. EVAR.

You'd better sort it out, or SAV will claim the droit de cuissage.

[Knucksie]

Have to confess to not wanting to pay for the Premium service at Scout, because there were some posting in that forum who were not worthing chatting with for free!

[Metaphysicist]

Not too worried about that. I don't mean to besmirch the missus, but she didn't exactly wear white to the wedding if you know what I meanandIthinkyoudo.

[Julio3000]

Say no more, say no more, what?

[NinersSBChamps]

Can we say "base balls?"

[elmonthc]

Sav is a douche;)

Moved to Technical Support

[4maddux_cy's]

Can something please be done about Enscheff? The guy is making the forum a miserable place to be. He can't go 3 posts without making a condescending remark about another member or group of members. It's been long overdue.

I think a few talk to him, he is a much and better poster. We get the Dr. Jeckyll of him now. His put downs are way minor equivalent to what we do to each other in the normal way of posting things.

I love it and I will tell him that. He is so so so good at what he brings in that regards that it is hard to say anything bad about that part of him. He even helps people understand where to go to get stats and how he does it. That is invaluable.

None of that should grant him carte blanche to say whatever he wants to any other member of the forum. I haven't seen as much negativity lately as I did when I made my original post thankfully.

That’s Not an excuse for him to be a dick. He can post that ‘invaluable’ information without being an ass.

Debatable.
