OT A bunch of angry posts moved from the main forum

[ABM]

I constantly ignore him and Cup.

They constantly act childish and go after me over and over and over again. At some point, people are gonna be in a bad mood and wont care about snapping back.

Agreed.

All right, I've tried to inject a little leg hump humor into this stupid thread, but it doesn't look like that's going to be enough to deflect some of you back to your senses. IMHO, the main problem around here is that some of you seem to lack the ability to sense when someone (HCP) is just fooling around and you take him seriously when that wasn't his intent. I pretty much assume that anything he's bullshitting in just about anything he posts and it works out about right most of the time. Return bullshit with bullshit. Gives me ample opportunities for the Mrs. HCP jokes.

Heres what you dont get bro - Were not cool like that. Thats why I dont make racist jokes, or jokes about his wife. I dont want to. Saying I should is fucking ridiculous. You're not saying anything I haven't heard a million times. I let so much of his annoying little shtick slide too. You dont get free reign to talk down to people as a "joke", especially when it derails another thread.

See this geek gets it. So I can safely put you down in the 75% that LIKES THE HCP?

the Mrs. HCP jokes.

Oh Geez!

 

[BonesJones]

That "pause" and "no homo" stuff is pretty offensive to many homosexuals if you didn't realize.

I wouldve said pause if it that comment was in reference to females too...

 

[BonesJones]

It's an at times offensive response to something someone says. In this example The HCP says: "Actually I’ve had a bunch of guys join me at work and said they really enjoyed it." Which can be interpreted as he just pleased some dudes. Bonesy says "pause," which means I didn't mean it in a gay way, or points out that that could be interpreted as a gay encounter, and that need for clarification comes off as super homophobic. It's like a homophobic version of "that's what she said."

That it could be interpreted as a sexual encounter.

 

[BonesJones]

More attacks from the guy that constantly openly whines about other posters posting style. You have plenty of your own issues. You have a complaint, take it to pm with a mod and quit making this forum such a cluster fuck.

Cup amd HCP - The Tag-Team Duo

Funny, I am half with you. Don't much know the other half though.

 

[CupWizier]

You know how much shit I ignore from both of you? A lot.

actually, you don't ignore anything and you create plenty. You talk a lot of shit, but can't handle it if anyone fires back at you.

you can have the last word again as it's obvious that is so important to you.

Goodbye.

 

[BonesJones]

Nope, not people, just only to those that think dragging other posters through mud in the open forum like buttercup constantly does.

So hypocritical... At least its in a direct conversation and not on a fake account.

 

[e_blazer]

More in the LIKES MRS. HCP camp, but you don't get one without the other.

BTW, when does the Blazers' schedule come out again? Gotta get the HCP out of town dates down in my calendar.

I'll take the last word if it gets you to shut up.

"Cant handle if its fired back at you" ... Arent you the guy who made a fake account to talk shit to me? Burned many paths in previous forums, and talked shit about my family?

Meanwhile I dont go after you or HCP yet someome Im the same? Thats generic BS.

 

[BonesJones]

I’m here cause I love basketball. I’ve never been on any other one of these forums ever. This is my lone experience of online interaction with others. I guess you can include twitter and Instagram in that maybe. This place and BBF before the great migration is it. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve made friends on here from the meet and greets and tours I’ve given. But I didn’t come on here to be friends with anybody. My life is too busy for my “real life” friends let alone you cyborgs. Was that the right term?

We WISH youd simply talk basketball.

 

[BonesJones]

Exhibit A as to why a PM to him is just a game. VVVVVVVVV. Others get public lectures here. I have. I've yet to read one aimed at HCP without being a vague generalizing one.

Hes been PMed 10 times before too. Never fixed anything.

You're also not saying amything I haven't heard a million times. I let so much of his annoying little shtick slide too. You dont get free reign to talk down to people whenever you want as a "joke", especially when it derails another thread.

I don't make racist jokes because they're offensively stupid and I am not.
I make Mrs. HCP jokes because HCP gets a kick out of it, not because I have any interest in any other woman than my wife.

Look, everyone is wired differently and one of the hardest things to figure out on a message board can be when someone is joking around or when they're just being an a-hole. I pretty much assume that it's almost always the former and ignore it when it's obvious it's the latter.

 

[Shaboid]

it's kinda ridiculous that some of you would give up a chance to meet people within the Blazers because there might be someone there who you do not like.

What if the person I don't like is within the Blazers, huh? Riddle me that, puppy.

This whole 25%-75% thing is funny. Put me in both camps. I dislike @THE HCP .. Don't we all? That doesn't mean I haven't sat in the broadcasting truck with him. He isn't on ignore, either.

I can't wait for the sole person on here that is on ignore responds to me.

Thats the thing though, it doesnt matter if hes joking around or not. Were not cool like that. Would you make the same jokes towards strangers as you would towards your friends?

You nailed it in a nutshell right here.

This is fairly common knowledge, so you would think that if you are being misunderstood as an ahole when you are joking, you might let that person know in a friendly way its jsut a joke, instead of ramping up the jokes more to look more like an Ahole?????

I mean if its so easy to be missunderstood, then why have a conniption fit when you are misunderstood? Why not be cool and respectable to that person and simply explain it to them in a friendly manner? Maybe because he isnt always joking and hew has people he intentionally enjoys being an ahole to? I have some PMs you should read where he makes it very clear not everything he says is a joke.

Seriously. People need to stop defending his behavior if it is known how difficult it is to know these things.

I know for me, ONE sentence form the outset would have solved everything. "Hey bro, sorry man, don't take me so seriously, im just a jokester around here." But the sentence I got was, "lighten up Francis, Im kinda a big deal around here. Dont like it, leave."

From then on, its BEEN on. And he could have easily solved that by not being such a disrespectful POS. But he made a grown mans decision to NOT do that and let this shit continue and continue and then bitches about it when it does.
I hope you see the incredibly hypocritical behavior he exhibits here. You may think its all a joke, but I assure you, he is not joking with some of us. He has made that plainly clear.

You aren’t the first one to ask about that.

 

[BonesJones]

I implore some of you to knock this shit off. Just stop arguing and picking at each other. You are here because you are Blazer fans. Fanatical Blazer fans. That is 100% fact. This fighting and hard feelings are only going to hurt you and your love of the team. I think some of you are losing focus of the big picture. This forum has provided chances to meet and interact with Wheels, Rice, Schonz, etc. These are unique opportunities for fans. You're constant fighting and hate of each other makes organizing these things very very difficult. Also while you're free to hate whoever the fuck you want to it's kinda ridiculous that some of you would give up a chance to meet people within the Blazers because there might be someone there who you do not like.

This is the 50th anniversary of a team we all love and follow. The Blazers are planning a lot of fun things for fans this season. I am going to do my best that we are included in as many as possible but your fights and insults are going to make that very difficult. Please, instead of multiple long posts of why many of you hate each other why not just not say anything at all? I promise the fights will stop if you do.

If you want it to stop, take care of the problem.

Who's giving up a chance at what, exactly?

Why not say anything at all? Exactly. None of this wouldve happened without HCP. There wouldve been no fight. He derails thread after thread to make it about himself or with some sort of dig at someone he shouldnt be.

 

[e_blazer]

I consider a lot of people on this board to be virtual friends even though we either haven't met in person or have only attended a group event together. If you pay attention, you get to know their on-line personality and can enjoy giving each other crap from time to time. I don't know about you, but I work alone from my home. I don't have much chance to talk Blazers other than this forum. I wouldn't continue to do it if I didn't respect and enjoy most of you. Who needs the grief if you aren't having fun?

I respect your knowledge of the game and your basketball takes are generally informative. I also know you don't joke around much so I don't give you crap. I'd say that the flip side of the HCP discussion is that he pretty much assumes everyone knows he's screwing around when he posts here. Obviously, some of you aren't wired that way and you get annoyed by him. All I can tell you is that to a person, everyone from the board who has taken the time to meet HCP and/or gets invited to visit the broadcast trailer with him, reports that he's a good dude.

I pretty much assume that most of the HCP's stuff is written in green in his mind. I don't really have a problem with him though I can understand why some people aren't feeling it.

What in the world...

 

[Orion Bailey]

Ill Leave you with this.

IF you rode the Max every day and had come to know some of the passengers and be friendly with them, but then one day a new person shows up and tells you to get off the max until you are 30, you in turn respond that you will do what you like, and that person responds telling you to lighten up and calls you a name and tells you he is a big deal around here and asks a security guard to deal with you.... would you just assume its a joke? or would you be , what in the fuck man is this dudes problem???????

There is such a thing as etiquette. Ill leave you all with that thought and bow out of this crap.

 

[Shaboid]

Hey. Since when did you start to dislike me?

All honesty, you rubbed me the wrong way when I first got here too. I just ignored you and took the perks from the Mrs HCP. We shook hands and had a good time at the Magic game, which was cool. Water under the bridge. I'm not one to hold a grudge though (not saying anyone here is, this is not my fight). So alas, that is why we now have a love/hate relationship, like everyone should.

I've made it crystal clear that HCP needs to refrain from calling me "son" or "kid" or make jokes like he did to start off this shitstorm. I even told him why he shouldnt call me those things, he defended it with "Thats how I talk", and now he goes out of his way to do so (If you want to know why, you can PM me. It's too personal to post).

But guess what? He still does so consistently and I ignore most of them. He's trying to cause all this. He knows that with me, it isn't some "joke". I would have no interest in interacting with him in person either, unless there was some sort of apology involved. But "The HCP never apologizes!" so whatever. Screw that guy.

But that doesn’t apply here man. We were rolling along just fine for years with no problems with me until you and your boy showed up. Isn’t that more how it happened? I didn’t join YOUR party...... you joined MINE.
