Is Whiteside better than a healthy Nurk?

[Blazers1977]

Wow, after all he does in here you're going to allow him to threaten me simply because you think he's joking?

Bro I would never threaten you or anyone else. I thought the comment obviously seemed like a joke, bu I was just trying to take a goofy jab at you after you mocked me. My media influence amounts to me
screaming at the tv while watching nba league pass.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

I wouldn’t have the ability to threaten his livelihood if I was Steven A Smith. How could you have possibly
taken that comment seriously

If you were Stephen A Smith, that would explain why nobody here agrees with anything you post.

Right because Stephen A Smith is always right.

Still, can't make threats, not even jokingly, especially after all the shit that has gone down recently. Not a funny joke.

You have to have the self awareness to realize that with your posting style it's impossible to know your intentions joking or not.

I'm on Blazers Uprise for fun. I don't get paid and I have a job/career already so I'm not trying to "make it" in media. Nor could anyone do anything to "finish" our show since we have never broken any YouTube rules. So the funny part of your joke would've been if you actually thought you had enough influence to do anything about it.

What was surprising to me was @TorturedBlazerFan's reaction to it considering everything that has gone on in here lately.

He's new at being a mod. He'll grow into being a dictator like the rest of us.

I just dont delete stuff very often. If someone threatened to come to my house and beat me up, it wouldnt matter to me if it was deleted from a forum post or not. The threat would either be credible or its not whether its in writing doesn't matter. My reaction for most things has been to tell people they need change their actions, then if they dont then to actually have actions. Its how I parent my kids, its just the way my mind works. I explain to them why they shouldnt do something, what I plan to do if they continue to do it and then let them make a decision for if they’re gonna continue doing what I asked them not to do or do something else.

This poster AFAIK has 0 to do with the other situation, I dont think I have ever seen him in OT and may or may not even know all the stuff going on over there, I cant just assume he knows it because I know it.

You may not agree with me and thats fine, but I wasn't condoning it. CC’s right tho it really doesnt belong and I probably should have deleted it. I thought about it, but went with what felt more natural which was my response.

Look, Tortured just has a different style of moderating. Nothing wrong with that. He is more laid back with how he handles things. I respect that. I think it is a good thing that us moderators have different styles. That we see and handle things a bit differently. If we all saw things the same way, we probably wouldn't work very well as a team. Tortured did nothing wrong. He did what he saw fit.

I hate when posts are deleted. I think they should be left up to show people's true colors.

As a mod though it's your responsibility to enforce the rules of the forum. Of course people should be allowed to joke around in here but that post took it too far.

 

[hoopsjock]

I said to come say "Tank!" to my face. I never said what I would do if you did!

I agree that it's good you all have your own style, but a post like that has no business being allowed in this forum.

I don't necessarily see one about threatening people, there is some stuff about how mods/staff see fit to do things.

4. Flame wars are not allowed. We do tolerate poking fun of one another ingood fun, but hateful posts towards another poster are not allowed.

7.Everyone is here to offer their opinions, so be prepared to have people disagree with your opinions. There is a difference between attacking someone's post (their opinion) and attacking the poster with the latter not allowed. The staff is here to monitor for such occurrences.

I said I thought he was joking, that's why I "moderated" it the way I did. There isn't a rule that everything that falls under this thing gets deleted rule. There is however room for mods to react differently to different things. I monitored it, responded to it other mods were aware of it. I don't feel like I shirked my responsibility, but if you do, I can respect that.

So you honestly read that post and thought it was "poking fun of one another in good fun?"

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

seemed sarcastic to me.

Well that's why I have an issue with your response. Even with the assumption that it was a joke he took it too far. That's not even factoring in his posting history and style which you are certainly aware of.

I asked him to not put that stuff on the board. I think the implication was there that if I saw more of it I would delete them.

[BonesJones]

So I hear that this guy said he's going to try to hurt my personal life/job, and it was passed off as a joke by a Mod? Could I see this post that this guy made? And I assume this guy is going to be banned for what he said, right?

Mods should be consistent. But they aren't.

I'd like to see what was posted because it pertains to me and this guy is threatening my life outside of the forum.

 

[BonesJones]

Do you honestly feel threatened...?

What the hell?

Yeah I'm confused as to how this guy would try to "ruin" the channel.

 

[BonesJones]

I'm pissed that a Mod didn't reach out to me with what was said and just tried to sweep it under the rug. Someone threatens my work and one Mod passes it off as a joke, another Mod deletes it, and nobody lets me know? Seriously? WTF...

 

[BonesJones]

Bro I would never threaten you or anyone else. I thought the comment obviously seemed like a joke, bu I was just trying to take a goofy jab at you after you mocked me. My media influence amounts to me
screaming at the tv while watching nba league pass.

You obviously have no fucking CLUE as to what lines you don't cross kid. You don't joke around with messing with or ruining people's lives off the forum. I can't IMAGINE what clicked in your brain that made you think that was okay, but I wish I could say I'm surprised.

You've done a better job than anyone of hurting this forum, and I'm struggling to understand what your purpose is here other than to piss people off. Fuck off and troll somewhere else.

I've gotten into it with people in the past but I can say this is the first time something from this forum has actually pissed me off. Don't screw around with me kid.

It was directed solely at me. I understand that when he mentioned the show it effects you though.
