    I suspended his account for 7 days. His posts about Maurice Lucas were outrageous.

    I'll leave it up to the Blazers mods/staff to decide if the suspension becomes a ban.

    Thank you Denny.

    I'm glad someone can stand up for common decency.

    I'd like to know what he posted so I can offer my opinion on whether he should be banned or not. PM me if you have to.

    Re: MIXUM has been suspended

    Was it for the comment that the team should have played harder in Mo's memory? That seems a little harsh IMHO.

    I don't think the opinions of us regular folk matter in regards to that.

    He said something (addressed to Maurice Lucas) about this is how the team plays for him.

    His comments about Luke in his 'Blazers bench is horrific' thread were horrifyingly inflammatory at a time of grief.

    Re: MIXUM has been suspended

    IMO, he was mocking Maurice Lucas' death, and using it as a tool to intentionally rile up forum members.

    It was purely for shock value. Terrible.

    Re: MIXUM has been suspended

    We're quite open about how we do things here. This is the reason, and he posted something like that in more than one thread.

    Some of you knew Lucas personally, and certainly the players did. It's amazing they played as well as they did in their grief.

    Re: MIXUM has been suspended

    You guys have to give us time to work. The posts were deleted almost immediately, but it takes time to delete the post, and all the subsequent posts that quote the deleted material. At least give us a couple minutes before you start bashing the staff and the site. Thanks.

    Re: MIXUM has been suspended

    Well to be honest that doesn't seem ban-worthy to me. As long as he isn't disrespecting Luke he can say pretty much say what he wants about the team. It's a free country after all.

    Understandable.

    But if MIXUM hadn't gone unchecked for so long, we wouldn't even have a situation like this.

    Meh...isn't this kind of like when the U.S. Government got Al Capone for tax evasion?

    You may be next, bucko. I've been monitoring some of the back-room discussions and, trust me, it ain't pretty. :lol:

    Re: MIXUM has been suspended

    Bullshit suspension. MIXUM was the first to post about Luke's passing. We Blazer fans are pretty raw right now because Luke passed away. I think we all thought he would beat it. People react differently when confronted with reality.
