Agreed. I enjoy reading your guys' forum (it's the most active one here) and although Mixum may be overly pessimistic, he usually makes one or two valid points in his rants. It's a nice balance to those of you who think Roy is the second coming of Jordan, Batum the next Pippen, and that Bayless needs to just be given minutes, whether he deserves them or not.

If anything, block the myriad of people thinking Durant would have been the better pick for the Blazers!


And it's childish to make a post essentially saying "ha, ha, I'm ignoring you."

Well you are a wussy too then. God damned wussies.
 
The ignore feature is for pussies who can't respond to a challenge.

Coward!

so true.

really, it IS possible to ignore people without the aid of a forum feature. just dont bother reading them. next people will be having sex with their computers hard disks and uploading virus protection that will invariably fail.

then you will have computer aids.

That wasn't funny.
 
i think you need all sorts in the fanbase to keep things in balance. god knows we have a TON of rose-tinted people at the other end of the scale.....

I never said this person challenged me. He has never said anything in my direction. I am also somebody who likes different opinions then mine. It is just I got tired of reading what seems to be purposely negative at all times posts! It bugs me just like the always positive ones! But c'mon, we win by 15 one night and he actually complains about stuff.

I don't really see the problem with MIXUM. Sure, he's incredibly negative, but his negative observations often have an interesting point to them.

You can be negative, wrong and yet still interesting.

Being negative is one thing - we all are at some point about somethings.

But to do it as an "act" to get attention or to purposely irritate people - well, then you deserve whatever comes your way.

I mean come on, does anyone really think that a person can really, honestly think and behave in their day to day life as this wanna-be forum villain does here? What coworker, boss, significant other, uncle, niece or whatever could put up with his BS every single day?

He lacks something in his real "life" that he thinks the attention he gets from being a troll on forums provides for him so he does and says whatever he has to in order to seek out that attention. It's all a sad act and something of a drug for him.
 
I love hearing the other side of the coin but MIXUM goes WAAAAYYYY over the top. You would think your team consisted of the Heat players at the end of last year if you just listened to him.
 
Meh, there are 4 or 5 posters here I always read. Most of the posters I generally at least skim. There are a couple I only tend to look at when they draw enough controversy to themselves. Guys like MIXUM and Shooter tend to fall in that category for me. They don't really upset me because I just really don't notice them much.

Which brings up an interesting idea--wouldn't it be cool if Ignoring weren't so binary? I mean, instead of Ignore/Don't Ignore, the user had choices to always show posts by their favorite posters, show the first three sentences of most posts (hover over and an AJAX call would show you the rest of the post), and the first couple of words for posters the user finds least interesting?

That'd be sweet. I could get at most of the best content quickly and only read the rest as time permits.

I would hope that i am one of your preferred posters!
 
Hey, if you want in on my Fav 5 you've got to show me the goods.

"The goods" being posts prominently featuring pictures of the players' hot wives.

Did my avatar make it into your Fave 5?
 
Mixum is harmless. He's a lot better now than when he got banned over on BBB. My only issue is that I wish he wouldn't start so many threads and would just post his comments in threads already started. I put HAP on my ingnore list. It's been nice. Haven't heard from that douche in months.

Really, just 4 or 5? I enjoy reading mostly everyone's opinion here. There's a lot of good posters on a wide range of spectrums in this forum. MIXUM on one end and HCP (or maybe we should call him MB now?) on the other, and everyone else in between. It's a good mix IMO..
 
Yeah, I don't mind MIXUM too much, but I do have one person on ignore. It's almost more annoying though sometimes.

well, to be fair, when I'm really bored I read more closely. Right now work is pretty crazy, so I'm pretty selective.

Why, I didn't even read beyond your first 4 words! :)

Better than that. Each cheek is occupying a slot, leaving me only 3.

And one of those remaining 3 is of course myself.
 
I must say that my life here is much more pleasant since I put Mixum on my ignore list (which consists of 1 person.)
 
for all that people who put me on their "ignore list" they still comment on me which is amusing.

Especially over the internet. I wouldn't block someone but I see no problem in someone else blocking someone. In fact I'm thinking about blocking every single person on this board except for myself.

And the reason I don't block people (although some people relaly get on my nerves) is because I would find it weird during conversations to just have blank messages.

So that's what it's all about to you, Mixum? Being amusing... even though it's not in a good way?

Well said HCP.

I honestly believe Mixum is really a Laker/Jazz fan that enjoys his contrarian alter-ego and the juvenile elation that comes from it.

That's my boy, but I think if you went back and looked at my posts, I am a realist, not a homer. KingSpeed is the homer freak!
