How is simply saying "they've lost 3 in a row" give off the indication that I'm upset? Give me a break.

 

Why do you guys bother? Just ignore and live happily ever after.

This forum; apparently criticizing players and specific plays is indicative of being negative. Some people enjoy things by analysis, others by math, others by following the roller coaster of emotions - if you have an issue, just ignore and continue with your day/forum posting endeavors. Why do you intend on using sarcasm, flat-out derision, or supposed "ban-threats"? Are you afraid that these supposed "negative posts" are going to scare people away from the bandwagon? Except those that are high on the hierarchy, everyone else is expendable, apparently; yet you all take extreme care to pinpoint every error, jumping-the-gun, or an emotional outburst. Fandom is based on emotion, not numbers or rational thought; maybe if you are going to be this condescending towards everyone, you should screen people better before allowing them to make an account and/or post.

 

This isn't a tirade; this forum isn't an end-all-be-all for me. And I am not a bandwagon fan; at the same time I watch Jays for fun - and so I play by observations. From the weeks I have been here, all I have noticed is a clique of "respected posters" and anyone else is guilty 'til proven innocent. Change the attitude guys; the rest of us aren't idiots - this is how we deal with Jays', their games, their players, and their wins and losses. If you don't like it, ignore it. If you are an admin and don't like it, maybe you need to reevaluate your criteria for posting here (a good suggestion from Bioware Forums: first 10 posts are screened by moderators before the posts are accepted; once someone gets 10 checks, they are allowed to post freely.)

 

Tl;dr: Love.

Spot on man, sums up this place, it's miserable place really until you ignore certain posters who think they can dictate what everyone else should say, do and act like.

Not great, not awful awful but on the awful side of middle of the road.

 

Dickey is nothing more than an innings eater. All I ask from him is to keep things reasonable close most nights.
