Yeah, it is a no win situation for Nas, Crest, and Jorr. I’d let anything go, but then you have aggrieved people either leaving the board or sending PM’s. There has to be some reasonable moderation.

No, we aren't. And there is no "new regime".

This is going to be the last I'll say about this. If anyone thinks I'm a petty dictator, I can live with that. Because I know I am not.

Sure, I didn't like McNown. At least I didn't like the character he played here. (The character he played when I met him in person and the one he plays on Facebook are perfectly fine.) Obviously my dislike for McNown played some part in my decision.

But this isn't a matter of me being thin-skinned. I don't mind being insulted within the context of a conversation. But with this guy, I had him on ignore for months and he was still insulting me out of the blue all the time. I could see it in quotes. I've had heated exchanges with many people here, sometimes in political discussions. Zeph comes to mind. He's a smart guy and hard to argue with. That's frustrating as hell. I feel like he has insulted me, but truth be told it was probably more the other way around. In any case, it has never once crossed my mind to delete his account. I respect him and his contributions to the board and I hope he feels the same about me. So please don't act like I'm running around the board looking for someone to axe. Caller Bob did something that I consider beyond the pale and I never considered banning him.

The real reason I did what I did can be found in McNown's own final post:

Baby McNown wrote:
This is the board that you want. This is the board that you let happen. If you want this palce to come back then turn the ship the fuck around. Ban the political talk.


So, I decided to take his advice. I don't think it's practical or even possible to ban political talk. But I was capable of banning the worst purveyor of it. And that's exactly what I did.

For anyone who wants to respond to that with a "what about...", there is no what about. There is no one else here who consistently just went around the board sneering and insulting without ever making any argument. Sure there are others who sneer and insult, including yours truly on occasion, but there was no one who did nothing else. You can howl about Cheap Charlie all you want, but he rarely insults anyone. He just posts nuggets of "wisdom" like some retarded Lord Chesterfield. And LTG and pittmike may go at it tooth and nail, but there is some content between the calls of "old drunken goat" and "damn stupid race baiter".

So I guess we'll see if this makes the board better than it was two days ago. I know where I'm putting my money.



I think its going to be difficult to make it better. I think people need to simply accept it for what it is. Really if you want my opinion (probably don't) the biggest problem here is that there are simply too many people that seek to make this place into the image that they personally want it to be.

Some people want it to be a lighthearted banter place where people show off their unending wit and comedic abilities.


Some want to turn it into a site that talks politics/
social issues.

Some want to turn into a site that talks about the Sports shows(though only a few care to talk about the shows)

Some want it to be a place where only the teams are discussed.


Some want it to be a place where only threads/sections/posters/state of the board is discussed.


While others want to make it a place where they only discuss themselves. i.e. Job/domestic life/ Social life.


Its impossible for everyone to use this site for the same thing. I think people need to accept this and derive from the site what they seek to deive and move on.


It just seems that there are a number of people here (coincidentally with no economic skin in the game) who make a concerted effort to shape the joint based on things that they deem to important.

If you don't care to comment then don't. If there is something that interest you then start a thread about it as a way of gauging others interest in it.

If there are topics that don't interest you then ignore them

The constant whining about the "state of the board" is frankly whats killing it too.

Let it do "what it do" and see what happens..The agenda people and their constant complaining about everything is what is adversely impacting the place more than anything.

Seriously? There are a million other websites for that. Those were fun threads, but I have no issues with the Wisemen not wanting to have that type of section here. I can go to Xhamster just as easily when I need that itch scratched.

Or you could quit being a fucking baby. It's really simple. You've read all the posts of people bitching about Bigfan trying to control the conversations and being all over the place in what was deemed acceptable. When the 3 Wisemen took over I had no hesitation in saying that you would be the first one to let this go to your head and become Bigfan. Thanks for proving me right. Now how about growing up?


Yeah, he wasn't asking for it or trying to get banned...

Stop being a person constantly complaining about everything. That is what is adversely impacting the place more than anything.

JORR is right, here.

BigFan would have deleted someone like Baby Mac right away when they started ripping him after warnings. Jorr gave warnings then still took some time, put him on ignore and stopped interacting with him and Baby Mac wouldnt let it go.

That's not thin skinned.

He sort of extended an olive branch earlier. Sounds like in response you're trying to light the branch on fire.
