Bip was just allowed back in after a temporary ban for being the only remaining fan holding out hope for the next Elton Brand to fall into our laps.

I'm not going to pursue this much because its not my place or my interest to get involved with the banning of posters.... But I dont know what you've been reading over the past couple of years. Of course we're all not perfect, but those two were in a class by themselves.

The threads and posts from those two have consistently been laced with an antagonistic bent. Its not to be confused with strong opinions and against the current thinking. I mean they were ripping the new regime and coming up with corny nicknames and they haven't had the chance to do squat.

If I had a dollar for every thread they derailed...

ok, ur entitled to ur opinion... i ain't gonna argue w/u over this stuff... just wish we could all just get along & keep the personal insults out of the equation... this goes for every debate that escalates into an argument & this hasn't been the case with only those 2 posters... that's all i'ma say on that.

now back to the nyk4ever is a douchebag topic...

I'm saddened to learn Islesfan is gone. Not sure what he did, but I hope he can undo it.

I never had a problem with either guy. I think I had better discussions with Isles. I can see how people might have found one or the other or both annoying, but I found them funny because of how hard they tried sometimes. I also found it funny that some people would bite. I know it's hard for people, as evidenced by prior clamoring for an ignore feature, but if you don't like a certain poster's style or ideas, or someone has rehashed the same argument over and over again, don't reply to them. Don't feed into it.

Martin and Andrew probably don't like doing what they have to do sometimes. They are pretty mellow moderators. I think certain posters get away with more than others because there is always a context and, whether you like it or not, people have developed reps. For similar behavior, Rasheed get a tech whereas Tim Duncan would get the benefit of the doubt.

I think the closer you are to acting like a normal human being on this message board, the more leeway you get. People should pretend like they are in a bar, face to face with each other. Be a little well-rounded and not such an obvious and forced character. With that said, I don't know how DJ get away with being such a douchebag.

When I debate with my friends in bars, it seems to end with a lot of smashed bottles, shoving, cursing and crying. And that's just the discussion about who's turn it is to be the designated driver. I don't even what to describe our debating tatics for politics and religion.

Isles and TrueBlue banned. Hmm, that's not cool. I hope they were at least given a private email to discuss before banning.

The real WTF is how they are banned and Bippity isn't.
Wishing everyone well. I enjoyed posting here for a while, but as I matured I realized this forum isn't for me. We all evolve. Thanks for the memories everyone.

I don't think it's so hard to figure out why they were banned. They brought down the whole level of conversation. I didn't even know they were banned until I read this thread, but I said to myself the other day, "wow, I enjoy coming here much more recently." With TB it was like wading through spam to find something of value.

I'm sure they're both fine guys but taking pleasure in pissing people off is selfish. It's annoying as hell for the rest of us who have to deal with the aftermath. I know several posters who share their same views but can put them forth like adults.

just my 2 cents (which is worth less than a peso in this ****ty economy).

Isles is one of the few posters that actually made me laught out loud. His ridiculously one-sided, but he will admit it. Hes a good guy. Trueblue has always struck me as a bit of a troll, ever since he joined under the name seatsblue (as a tribute to blueseats? Weird...). Hes on the realgm board the last couple days acting like a complete fool. I wouldnt be heartbroken if he didnt come back. Has Briggs been banned too? I havent seen him post in a couple days. I figured hed have three threads already about how Gallo sucks!

TB comments on the ban over at RealGM.

Note: He wasn't talking to me.
I have a stench following me. Getting banned isn't the end of the world it happens quite comical in many respects when you look at why. Happy to know you're wetting your pants over it.

Lol I think he got mad at me because I mentioned he got banned from UK

true blue was inarguably the biggest coward i've come across, if such a statement can even be made. the fact that he now posts on other msg boards bashing UK and calling it "comical" is just pathetic. good riddance, i hope he never comes back.

isles at least contribued on the yanks talk thread w/ relevant stuff, he must've really just loathed isiah i guess i can't blame him.

man i am happy trueblue is gone.
