Funny, I thought this thread was going to be started by Mixum, er Carlito, er Rudy, stating the elephant in the room was the Blazers not being able to beat a team at full strength or some bs straw man like that

That said, I agree trolling does not lend itself to quality discussion.

This entire thread is to troll one poster, though. Hence the low level of discussion in this thread.
 
Is there a quantity discount point, like, at 20 posters the price drops to $35?

How do I know another moderator won't unban them and demand $50 each to reban them?

I'll do a group discount. Not a problem.
 
If he really bothers anyone here, they just need to ignore him. I look at it this way, we're all intelligent, grown ups (I'm assuming everyone here is an adult, I admit), and it's not that hard to just see his name on a post and skip right past it. No need to allow your emotions to boil over or to even waste a minute of your time. Personally, I think he's a rather amusing troll. Way back when many of the folks here were on the BBB.net forum, I recall a great deal of us added him to our ignore list, and pretty much only new posters ever carried on a conversation with him, until we pointed out that they can just block the seemingly imaginary person they were talking to.

He really isn't worth the two microseconds. Just ignore, and move on, or do as I do and giggle and laugh at his posts and occasionally make fun of him.
 
I wonder if his DJing is as bad as his trolling? If that's true, I doubt he makes any good money

53 teams have started as well as us, 13-2. In over 60 years, that's less than one team per season.

And some of them never even won a playoff series, including the Spurs just 3 years ago.

Worst case scenario might be the 02-03 Pacers--started 14-2 but went basically .500 the rest of the way, including a 1-12 stretch. They finished just 48-34, lost in the first round, and fired their coach.

Of course, they made the finals the next season...

I'm just wondering why this obvious troll thread is allowed to continue. Seems a bit against what some of us were told when we were "brought back" to S2.
 
Of course he's a troll, and a liar, too. Even though it's been proven he's Mixum posting under a different username, he continues to lie and say he's not.

He's a troll because he enjoys it when the Blazers lose and makes excuses when they win. A fan of the team enjoys it when they win and makes excuses when they lose.

He posts in the EXACT same style (trolling and baiting) that got him "permanently" banned as Mixum. Why he's allowed to behave in the same manner because he changed his screen name remains a mystery to me. It makes a mockery of the forum rules. Either this behavior is acceptable, or it is not. It got him banned once, so it must not acceptable. I'd like a clear explanation of why he as banned as Mixum, but allowed to continue the same behavior as Carlito.

Hey mags, sorry buddy, but I'm the one he's referring to. He and DLJ both decided not to speak to me. It's all good, I still have crandc and Denny, and of course you (for now).

I don't ignore anyone, even bgd! Sometimes I want to make an exception with him though

Good to know. I'm glad, I thought I was a ghost to you. Cheers

And yes, I was wrong that one time in 2011
 
Threads about mixum are worse than mixum

My 2¢

Agreed.
 
TBH, I saw nothing in that list of Carlito posts that was ban worthy. Or insightful. Or correct. Or positive. You can't ban someone for being a Negative Nancy. Treat it like a birth defect. Ignore it.

I had him on ignore for years as Mixum, but it really doesn't solve the problem. He is so pervasive in his bating and trolling that he destroys otherwise useful threads. If he would limit his trolling to threads he starts, he would be easy enough to ignore. Unfortunately, he doesn't do that. While there was nothing ban worthy in what he posted in the game thread last night, it's just part of a pattern of trolling and baiting. I thought he wasn't going to post in game threads anymore, or was that just another lie?

I agree, he isn't worth the attention he gets. But, he's like a spoiled child. He got scolded (banned) once, but he didn't learn his lesson. He's right back here, behaving exactly the same way, without consequences. Like a spoiled child, his behavior will never change unless there are negative consequences to his actions. Evidently the mods think it's OK or him to continue to break the rules. So, why even pretend to have rules if they aren't enforced, or when they are enforced, it's meaningless (like banning him as Mixum, but letting him post the in exactly the same way as Carlito)?
