Why was PapaG banned?

[The_Lillard_King]

I find you spelling my name wrong to be a personal attack

Damn auto correct

I see your point and agree. Posters can stay within the rules and still make their insulting point.

I think common sense rules over everything else. Papag got suspended/banned because of his history on this board, not because of one comment. I don't think there is a strict interpretation of rules going, we have real people looking at the situation in it's entirety and making a judgement call. It''s a tough job because inherently when you are given discretion and have to make a tough call, some are not going to like it (no matter what call you make). But can anyone really say the mods here are out of control. Anyone who has any experience with other forum chat rooms would probably say this is one of the easiest going and non regulated chat rooms around. The mods here aren't perfect, but they do a pretty damn good job, IMO.

I do agree Nate is a little controversial as a mod. He is emotional and times irrational . . . but this is a volunteer job (as far as I know) and he does spend a lot of time and energy trying to keep this place in check.

100% volunteer.

I haven't fought with a mod forever.

Had to say that to insert veiled insult/joke.

It seems to me the staff(1) was primed and ready, even goaded the man on.
My first encounter with Nate was not so great, now I am convinced he is a bully with a hammer.

I would fire his ass, might make a better man than what we get. One member of the staff tried to talk him down but Nate ignored the suggestion.
Overall, I rate the performance, poor.

Well... lets not say staff when it's one person. Lets not lump all into one. Leave that for the media to do, and they suck at it.

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

That's such a ridiculous double standard.

1 person says they called the post mindless, another says it was insinuating that the poster is mindless.

Your post is awesome. Every other post save a few is fukn retar.....well, dumb.

Yes this example was mostly nate but he is certainly not the only mod to be antagonizing or condescending.

I realize we are talking apples and airplanes here but so I understand....a neighborhood watch guy can just shoot people because he volunteers?

Oops, Zimmerman.

 

[Strenuus]

Sure if it was done in a civilized manner most replies though are god that was stupid etc. It makes people defensive and turns threads into a cock measuribg contest. Rarely do people use actual stats or basketball terminology to counter an argument.

To be fair, when you use stats or anything the CBA its usually wrong, and you've said you don't care. So, I don't exactly know if you're the one that should be waving this flag.

Name another? Sly owns up to his shit when he does it (which he hardly has to do, anyway, since it doesn't happen often).

Damn it, I was going for complete asshole. I really need to work on that.

Except you guys gave me the gun. Zimmerman brought his own.

You would have to use stats to refute his bad stats so..........

I'd have shoved the gun straight up that Mexican's arse and pulled it back out sideways. What is the forum equivalent?

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

My only friends in Vegas are Mexican and El Salvadoran????? I just say Mexican for El Salvador...sue me

I will concede my interest in the salary cap is lacking. However, my statistical arguments are factual and compelling. If I actually believed Portland was going to make deals I would spend more time researching.

Holding a new forum election, being voted in as mod and then banning me.

Thank you for pointing this out . . . I find incorrect stats and bad usage of the CBA to be a personal attack.

 

[cmeese47]

Here?

Yes here

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

By the way, people probably moved out of that neighborhood right after the shooting. Just saying.

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

Yes here

Names and examples please.

Sounds like effort required.

The Blazers made this their official forum after I became mod. My gun has done good!

Isn't because people kept confusing Batum's salary and the weight of your posts mother?

They picked Meyers Leonard too.

Say whaaaaaa??????

Come on . . . you can do better than that.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

LOL! Hey, I did my best to ban Meyers from playing this year. I blame Nate for the minutes he got.

 

[cmeese47]

Names and examples please.

Sly does it but he fully admits it, brianfromwa is not innocent either and barfo loves to make smart ass replies from time to time. I would suggest if you looked hard enough all mods are guilty of this at least once.

 

[cmeese47]

Come on . . . you can do better than that Swiss.

I talked about your post you are not doing the same stop personally attacking me. Bullying is wrong.;-(
