Spanky absolutely despises the negative Nancy type...even when the negative Nancy happens to be right from time to time. That spells a lot of premature hammers.

 

There is no rule about being negative, people vent in different ways..... I never understood why he seems so upset when someone vents? Like get a grip. People are allowed to vent frustration or criticize and be negative. People are all different. Obviously some people go over board andthose should be dealt with, but those are the minority. Do we want everyone to be a robot and the same and act the same?Life is not like that, learn some tolerance.

Just need a mod that allows people to express their opinions and not get attacked by the "Click" group of posters that come into every thread and whine about trolls, and think they run the board. Obvious trolls should be dealt with fast though obviously. Seems a certain group of poster get too much leeway here and attack anyone who doesn't conform to their hive mind.

 

You're saying some posters get too much leeway? lol

It's a forgone conclusion North is going to be a mod, right?

we do have a venting thread. constant negativity is not conducive to a tolerable community. the same time you call for tolerance in the GDT you need to understand that a lot of people want to simply cheer for the jays and enjoy the games together with others who also want to talk baseball and enjoy the game.

 

this guy sucks

fire that guy

DFA that guy

ban

mods

gibbons is an idiot

 

 

these things can be left for some place other than the GDT

I never said anything about "Constant"....People are going to vent at times, there is no stopping it especially online. Constant negativity and trolling is not what I am talking about, that is different then some venting and being critical. Do we really want to get rid of critical thought?

I never did anything wrong.... LAck of tolerance for others opinions.

and the mods can check post content to see patterns.

 

 

let the mods take care of it and learn to use the ignore feature. not responding to trolls is something else that would help a lot. many times other people have trolls on ignore but still have to read their comments because so many put an effort into responding to trolls which just makes everything worse

?? Nothing I said was trolling.....

 

You're GDT posts are almost 100%..."Oh we are headed for a tailspin now" after something as simple as a base hit. Also, I don't care to hear, "game over" after the Jays go down at any point during the game.

Agree...and the constant calling people trolls derails the GDT's more then anything. If people PM'd mods and ignored they would not get the attention they want.

No they are not.....selective memory. I often just talk baseball or joke around.

The constant whining for mods and banning people has become so unbearable to read. I do think the occasional posts about Gibby being an idiot and should be fired is understandable in the GDT, just not 15 straight posts saying the same thing.

Well your jokes probably sometimes come off as trollish. Tone it down a notch maybe?

Agree, and often it is for people who don't even deserver banning and are not even trolling, they just don;t agree with their opinion...It's silly. Comes down to a lack of tolerance. Saying somehing like "Tulo has struggled lately" should not lead to me being called a troll and spouting his lifetime stats......a guy can be a Hall of famer and struggle for a period of time. That happened to me. Or "The Jays have not hit well with runners on lately", How the frig is that trolling? Nothing wrong with that. It's always the same posters too.

Well it looks like i leave the board and everything goes to hell. Not saying, just saying.

 

Where the hell have you been???? Your absence cost the Jays 2 losses.

Jaysfan2014 is a knowledgeable level headed poster who would be a good man for the job.

 

I also nominate him for tomorrow's GDT. He's got a pretty good record.

I like you but you need to shut up.

The guy who suggested Atothe is funny. Horrible suggestion.

 

Mods need to be level-headed

Mods need to serve justice swiftly and fairly

Mods need to be active posters

Mods need to not be idiots
