Who gives a fuck? Typical of you being a dramatic little girl. CoA helped out a new member, by giving him guidance on where to discuss this particular Browns subject, since you know we actually know where everyone enjoys discussing the Browns. Notice how Clecon didn't bitch and immediately posted the same post in the Browns thread? He is now having good discussion on the Browns thread as well. Nice fail. There is a reason why you are known as cry4fail. Now let this thread die, or shut it down. Thanks.

Just a note on the thread. Obviously CoA did nothing wrong. He was a little brash, I was just trying to be welcoming to the new poster in my own way.

What like_that responded with was completely out of line in my opinion. It's one thing to have a difference in opinion (like CoA in that thread). It's another to just flat out be an ass.

You don't about the Browns coaching search, yet you read and posted on a thread entitled Browns Coaching Search.

This is one of if not the worst infractions I have seen.

Like that was typical like that douche, but I don't see the point of your comments to begin with. Bad infraction

That's how he pretty much responds to me every time. I was getting sick of so decided to put a stop to it as it's in the rules to not continually harass even mods.

But this time you really butted in for absolutely no reason to begin with. All the 2013 browns thread was about was the coaching search. Not to mention you were a day late in even responding.

I do't read every thread every day? I saw a new posters name and decided to check it out.

I'm sorry, but there is absolutely no reason I should have to constantly put up with shit from Like_That. CoA at least responds normally sometimes. All I get from like that is name calling and personal attacks. I believe that falls into the continually harass category.

I stand by this infraction.

I would have probably just locked the thread had I seen it since the coach talk has been going on for weeks in the offseason thread. That would have avoided them ever responding, but hindsight is 20/20

I agree that this is a weak infraction. Other members say much worse to non-mods and no infractions are handed out. The "harassment" rule, as I see it, is to keep people from following others around into threads and dropping nothing but an off-topic insult or attack.

Arguably, this is all CoA and LT have done for the past 24 months with jordo, dynasty, and F4F

That's pretty much what like_that does to me though. He doesn't do it to every post, but any time he responds to me it's something along these lines.

Hence the action I took. I guess you and I are the only ones that see it.

Nobody's saying they don't give you shit. We know this. We all see it. But I'm sure there are other things he's said to you that are worse than this.

I agree that generally I let it go. That is why I made the CoA comment, he does talk a lot of crap towards me, but at times he does have a reasonable comment.

But we were discussing recently like_that continually harassing jordo and dynasty even though they haven't done anything lately (especially Dynasty). I just think Like_That has been out of line too many times and finally decided to do something about it.

I would have had someone else do the infraction on your behalf so it doesn't make you look whiny to them.

I agree with the general premise of the infraction, I just don't know if that was the post/thread to do it on.

I agree that there are worse things he said. I think the spirit of the continually harass rule is perfectly in line with the infraction. It's not about 1 comment, it's about the constant badgering.

If he wants to talk shit about me, he can do it all day long in the basement.

Like someone mentioned above, there is much, much worse said in that forum towards others.

Yeah. It just seems like a weak post to single out. I understand it building up and getting sick of it but it's like someone calling you a ****** in 5 posts and then infracting them when they call you a girl.

Well the general premise of continual harassment doesn't seem in doubt. Some of you think I should have either waited for a more serious attack from him or just had another mod do it. But I did what I did.

We can either reverse it, which I don't think it should be done as it is warranted under the rules in my opinion. Or we can just let it stand. It's a month ban to the basement. It's not the end of the world.

I've already had my say in the matter.

I don't know why, but most of the mods seem to enjoy like_that and CoA. They should be in the basement for all the unprompted attacks on jordo and dynasty. I'm not sure this was infraction worthy, but I don't care what happens to like_that or CoA. They're like the school yard bullies, and they get away with it for some reason.
