Pretty sure every thread on here goes "past the point" of the OP's topic. What you're doing is cherry picking topics you don't like to read personally and enforcing a rule on said thread without enforcing it consistently across all threads.

Look at the acceptable number thread on the SB forum. There is rarely talk of the actual acceptable number. It's talk about whether you'd date a girl you fucked on the first date, whether you'd date a girl who has fucked your friends, etc. It's not killing anybody, it's just going off topic. Is going, say, 50% off topic (that thread) that much worse than going 100% off topic (this thread)? No, you just don't want to read this shit, whereas you would want to read the other thread. It's not hard to see lol

No, what I'm doing is telling you to lay off BR because it's far more than going off topic. Is one person being constantly harassed in that thread like BR is here? It's not hard to do lol

Also, way to cherry pick one thread that has gone sort of off topic, but not really. It's still a thread talking about sex.

Yeahhh, but you do have a history of that shit.

Good talk.

And before anyone throws out the accuasations (sp?), I did not report any posts or anything like that. Justin took it upon himself to do this.

As S&L said I'm a "big (old) boy" and can defend myself if I need to.

Truth be told, I'm getting too old for this message board bullshit. Also thought I'd never see the day where the Steeler fan posters were less dickheads than my fellow Browns fans. I have to go throw up now after saying that.

SportsAndLady;1379310 wrote:Is there anything worse (besides Cancer) than someone on a forum who takes a hyperbole literally, and then keeps harping on it?

Stick to the OSU football, Duke basketball, Steelers, and Reds threads I92.

Keeps harping? Pot, you're black. You harping on BR not being like you or Weeden anything....yeah, that's less than my 2 posts. Hyperbole...great. If BR had said "I'd rather lose $500 in slots than win $5,000 playing BJ".....You'd never stop on that...you'd bring it up ad nauseum and /br'd every chance for months.

And your ridiculous ending of your last post....good god if you're going to try and make fun of me at least get it right. I might have made 25 posts about OSU football this season, maybe 25 about Duke basketball, Steelers threads are gone.....they don't exist on here unless they play the Browns. The Steelers fans have gone elsewhere to post....congrats.....definitely helps the site grow/maintain.....Reds? Yeah, love them and loved dominating the threads of the past, but I wasn't around much this year as people left/stopped posting. Justin knows where I'm at as it's far better to talk Reds as this is pretty much a Cleveland Browns forum....in which I go out of my way to be respectful.

You told me to stay on those threads because it shows bandwagonism as per rules of Cleveland Browns fans....you were going for kudos from your idols on here.....98% of my posts are away from those topics.

1) you won't go to Browns games
2) you'd rather play slots than watch Browns games
3) you seem to know a ton about the team, which implies you care, but #1 and #2 imply you don't... which leads to ...
4) You're a big freaking troll.

Please highlight all of my post that is incorrect.

Shocking you'd come to his side.

Calling BR a troll is laughable.

I would guess more people follow any respective sports team and don't go to see them in person than those that do. I don't think that's trolling.

Can someone please post the necessary requirements of being a true fan of a team? This is all so confusing.

Fan = short for fanatic

fa·nat·ic (f-ntk)n. A person marked or motivated by an extreme, unreasoning enthusiasm, as for a cause.

adj. Fanatical.

BR is not even close to being a troll.

You are getting off topic from the off topic, please get back on topic by getting off topic.

Didn't say it was incorrect, just saying you are being a drama queen. I don't go to Steelers threads, because the Steelers can go fuck themselves, but who other than rock (his blow up from a couple years ago) and non (good fucking riddance) have left??

justincredible;1379381 wrote:Can someone please post the necessary requirements of being a true fan of a team? This is all so confusing.

1) You must attend some games.
2) You must live within 45 miles of that teams stadium.
3) You must watch every game on TV. (The only thing that can excuse you from this is death.)

Ask ironman.

i think none of you know who really is and is not a troll. It's the internet, anything is possible. I just have a hard time taking someone serious if they exhibit contradictory behavior on a repetitive basis.

jesus this turned into a bitch fest.
