Indeed. I'm going to start banning a random member weekly.

Step 1. Ban member.

Step 2. Wait for outrage.

Step 3. ???

Step 4. Profit.

Are you questioning not hating the mods isn't taking their side or the fact I don't/didn't know who the mods are?

Maybe S&L has something here. If he gets under your skin, just ignore him. Don't respond to his posts, replies, etc., and eventually, he'll just fade away.

pretty indifferent about all of this but will say that the recent banter has made the basement much more active/enjoyable.

Keep up the good work!

I guess I just don't get it. Most of us enjoyed the huddle and you weren't allowed to do much of anything deemed out of line. This site goes way beyond and has from the beginning. I fail to see how a moderator ruins things on here. I think I've been warned once and that was something I did on purpose.

like_that and COA have failed away at me and didn't give a fuck dozens upon dozens of times.....I defended myself how I always have and they either QQ, don't give a fuck or ignore and move on. I'm not alone and they are equal opportunity for sure......but it's the internet and it has been very permitted on here with minimal punishment. It's permitted....why cry. Give it back or ignore......reporting? Lol it's the Internet.

I don't understand their need to constantly stay on some or change a lot of names....but they don't understand why I root for Pittsburgh or talk about my kids. We're different...it's ok. They are both very knowledgable and are two of the tops in knowing what is going on in this site.

My problem with like_that getting banned for a bit is that he's probably done equal to or worse a 1,000+ times.

A lot of people seemingly aren't here anymore....some Browns posters have left but a ton of others have left also. The Reds threads are dead....Steelers threads are worthless. What are those reasons? I don't know.....but can't imagine it's because of a moderator posting on a thread.

As an outsider to all of this (because I honestly have no idea who a lot of these people are) I can say that the basement and cleaning up the site a little bit is a really good thing. I stopped posting here because it was the same old stuff... stupid, tired jokes and 7th grade humor. I came back and noticed the change, so I post again. I'm not sure how that information helps, but as an objective party, I think OC is in a better place than it was a year or so ago.

@Justin- I will request a perma-ban if we can't inhale narcotics and watch Trailer Park Boys soon. That is all.
