King Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 If the ridiculous attacking in this thread doesn't stop immediately I'll be closing it. grow up people. too many whiners looking to pick fights. O2 is laying down the hammer
o2cui2i Community Moderator Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 O2 is laying down the hammer yes... make sure you don't end up on under it
King Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 yes... make sure you don't end up on under it I'm merely an outside observer in this conversation, if you havent noticed
TRM Verified Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 yes... make sure you don't end up on under it I hope I end up on or under your hammer o2. I've always had a thing for swedes
o2cui2i Community Moderator Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 I'm merely an outside observer in this conversation, if you havent noticed I'm just checking with Admin to see if openly agreeing with Boxy is a ban worthy offense I'll get back to you. lol
vdubmvp Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Anyone else need a white knight? Yes. Say something nice about King.

King Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 I'm just checking with Admin to see if openly agreeing with Boxy is a ban worthy offense I'll get back to you. lol I heard you wanted to ban me yesterday for saying Agreed, in reply to Boxys post, so I can assume this is true. With that, I will say Good bye.
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 5, 2015 Author Posted August 5, 2015 Yes. Say something nice about King. Ugh...
reedjohnsonfan Verified Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 That's an absolute double-standard and you know it. Anybody could use that cop-out to get away with essentially anything on this forum, outside of personally attacking somebody else. This forum has ostracized people for holding unpopular opinions ever since it went up. It happens every day, in nearly every thread. "I hope the Rays beat the Jays and cost them a playoff spot" might be an opinion, but when it's voiced on a Blue Jays board, it absolutely is trolling. That would be seen as trolling on any fan site or message board that supports a sports team. You know that and I know you know that. You're purposely turning a blind eye to it to defend TheHurl, and I very strongly believe that you wouldn't be doing that if this same comment was made by an average board member. Completely true. The old forum was much more diverse and active, and therefore more interesting. If it wasn't for a couple of idiot posters it might still be the #1 place.
King Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Sorry King, I tried. Thanks. I appreciate it
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 5, 2015 Author Posted August 5, 2015 I have to say this thread was a resounding success. Filled with intrigue, e-fisticuffs, ban threats, and butthurt TwistedLogic posts. I really just wanted to talk about about how the playoffs would be easy to make.
o2cui2i Community Moderator Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Sorry King, I tried. so did BTS. you have no idea how hard it was for him to get the "ugh.." out.
TilsonBritoFan Verified Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 He hopes the Rays beat the Jays and cost them a playoff spot. That's not trolling, that's just how he feels. He shouldn't be banned for not thinking the way you expect a member here should think. If he were a broken record s***ing up every thread and getting a rise out of people? Sure, ban him at that point. But that's not what's happening. He shared an opinion. If a Red Sox or Yankees fan came here and said that they'd be labelled a troll and banned.
o2cui2i Community Moderator Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 If a Red Sox or Yankees fan came here and said that they'd be labelled a troll and banned. difference is that BTS and Hurl are parts of this community and have been for years. big difference between that and trolls coming here just to start s***. they are valued members of our community. if you can't see the difference then I really can't help you.
Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 If a Red Sox or Yankees fan came here and said that they'd be labelled a troll and banned. We have 4thOFFan, who despite being somewhat of a troll has been accepted into the community.
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 5, 2015 Author Posted August 5, 2015 If a Red Sox or Yankees fan came here and said that they'd be labelled a troll and banned. I don't think that's really true. I would hope that the forum would welcome a Red Sox fan that contributed to discussion, but admitted once that 'you know, even if my team is out of it Id love to play spoiler to the jays down the stretch'. Not banworthy at all. Now, a sox fan that did nothing but s*** on jays players with every post is obviously a different story.
vdubmvp Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 We have 4thOFFan, who despite being somewhat of a troll has been accepted into the community. I'm so dumb when it comes to recognizing who these posters used to be. I just figured out that one like two days ago, and it was probably months before I knew that Deadpool used to be BTT. The worst was not seeing that RealAccountant is Dogg, but once I saw someone say it, everything made sense.

Valued members might be a stretch, but members no less.

GD Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 The most surprising to me was that GD was tercet from the old forum. I literally weigh 3 of him.
o2cui2i Community Moderator Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 I literally weigh 3 of him. lol... yeah, I'm probably close to that as well. rocking the beard to hide the chins.
GD Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Wait, Tercet weighs like 80 pounds, right?

Ah well, the best case scenario then would be the Jays locking up a playoff spot before the last week of the season, then TheHurl can go suck a lemon.
Rajais Mitten Verified Member Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Wait, Tercet weighs like 80 pounds, right? Soaking wet and holding a 5 pound bag of flour maybe.
