I think this is the kind of stuff Justin is talking about. My posts are on topic and I have never posted on a Cleveland Indians or Cleveland City Stars, Cleveland Coba's or the Lake Erie Monsters thread.

What ever happened to troll points or whatever? I thought the basement was created to banish people but that idea fizzled out.

Football and basketball forums are the worst. Man if you dont like OSU on here you might as well be called stupid.

If you would of made me a mod on day 1 of this site I would get more respect.

You are such a D-bag.

Ever heard of making your own bed? And justin could make you the webmaster of this site and you would still get zero respect.

Is that who that is? I figured it was someone using a second (or third or fourth) username, but I thought it might be sleeper since he's an 'vacation'.

I know. But look at the threads that turn into shit shows. Most are sports, which is what happens when people who will never agree post on the same board. And then go through some of the serious business threads, most are really dumb and good for time killing. I just think people get their panties in a wad over nothing. I understand justin getting annoyed because it's his site, but for posters to get annoyed and take things personally or actually get annoyed by anything written on this site is ridiculous to me.

Do you post some dumb things? yes. Do i enjoy making fun of those dumb things? yes. Do i think you're going to go cry and take this shit personally? no, there's no reason to, it's a message board.

I hate the constant "fify" adjusting quotes. That shit stopped being funny a while ago.

I'm sorry, but these first three posts are just QQ posts. These aren't even personal insults or over the top insults. If you can't handle a "fail," every now and then you grow thicker skin. Also also at this "nerd," talk. Get over yourself. You are not the only guy with a fighting background and goes to a gym.

They might be annoying and old (lol at it getting under your skin), but it's still not a personal attack. So, keep on QQing about it!

Also, hey pot, meet kettle. If you don't think mocking mentally handicapped children post after post isn't idiotic and old, then I don't know what to tell you.

This as well. I love how we mock the whole "serious business" aspect of forums, yet we have people here QQing, because an anonymous person said fail, or made fun of them. BOO HOO :(. Might as well start taking "serious business" seriously.

This seems accurate of every single idiotic post your throw out there.

Also for the record, I say fail to most of your posts and threads, because they are stupid as hell 95% of the time. I call it like I see it. If that hurts your feelings (clearly it does), then quit posting.

Yes, clearly you are not, because I definitely haven't resorted to posting personal information about posters.

This is long overdue. The personal attacks for no reason other than someone not liking a poster is childish. Just ignore people and the problem is solved. There are several posters on here that I refuse to respond to, because their posts are idiotic or it turns into a pissing match.
