Every time this board gets back to talking hoops (without the Drama) Some banned poster comes back and starts it all over again. Like clockwork. For years now.

Not suggesting anything nefarious. Would be nice that they didnt feel so free to act out. Posters who are banned everywhere else feel right at home at UK. I dont consider that a good thing.

Think that is a good idea if he pisses you off.
The extremes on most fan forums are just funny to me. Don't see why they bother some.
You take away NYKMentality's over positiveness and muscle twitch responses and the overly negative takes of several troll like posters and what are you left with?

Been on other forums and there dose not seem to be the amount of sensitivity. Plenty of **** talking. Some choose to ignore or engage. Eventually those guys fade away due to so many ignoring them. That's what a forum is. Feel there is still plenty of good basketball talk despite those extremes. Only guys that should be banned are vulgar one subject regurgitators. Imho

Im ignoring anyone who regularly turns hoops discussions (repetitive and otherwise) into personal attacks or call outs of the fan base, ad nauseum. Thats what usually will get a poster at least checked.

Im here for hoops, not Drama over Fandom and "Hating". Those professional athletes will be just fine.

this is a website that endorses free speech. Unlike another sports messageboard nykmentality got banned from that is snowflake ground zero

Rumor is you did too. Is this true? Something about Zach Wilson?
Free speech is a privilege, not a right to promote empty thoughts.
Respect is earned, not given.

Free speech is a privilege? Did you graduate the 1st grade? I got banned for being right about a particular topic that a bunch of snowflake mods over there were calling anyone who disagreed with them a retarded person for 2 years until their position became indefensible. Those people were mentally weak and insecure even more so than yourself and that site has never made money from what I heard

Oy...

Not being subject to laws passed by the united states congress abridging speech is the ONLY free speech right you or I possess.

Only.

You or I do NOT have a right to say whatever we want here, there, on Twitter, in someone's home, in MSG, in a movie theater or pretty much anywhere else.

You should not mock people for being uneducated when it is you who doesn't understand this basic principle.

Martin can ban my ass right now for identifying the abject stupidity of your remark, and it might be a dick move, but he'd be 100% within his rights and in no way, shape, or form would he be violating my rights.

This is FAR too important to get wrong.

Stop getting it wrong.

When you resort to name calling when you run out of facts, the debate is usually over. Its now something else.
When its about "being right" about a prediction and not about the games, its now about seeking validity.
I might guess ones banashment as you described it in your words was not about being correct about Zach Wilson, but perhaps the manner by which you conversed about it.

Also weren't you (PhilC) insisting Obi couldn't shoot?
"Couldn't throw it in the ocean" or something like that

Did this become the PhilC thread? Couldn't think of any more boring thread
