I know it’s your style, but you know that you don’t have to put asdf anymore in the title. You don’t have to put anything.

The mods have been consistent on this...

Dont post excessively short notes
Links to Stephen Jackson’s interview without interesting commentary belong in the fanshots section.

I hate Chris Rock, Eddie Murphy, Dave Chappelle, and Russel Peters because they make fun of white people like me. They also make fun of other kinds of people, which hurts me deep down because my ancestry is so mixed that I don't know what my official "race" is... so I get offended for all races!

You have got to be kidding me. I’m not even going to tell you why it’s funny, I’d like you to try to figure out why.

Wowww..

OK reading more of your comments below I actually think you might have completely ignored my entire post and only responded to the title? What is wrong with you?

Let me just pull a quote out from my post (Above) with bold letters so it’s clear:

I wrote an analysis and key points on what he thought about our offseason and his vision of our future with him as a leader.

Now here’s what you just said:

Links to Stephen Jackson’s interview without interesting commentary belong in the fanshots section.

Again, me:

I wrote an analysis and key points on what he thought about our offseason and his vision of our future with him as a leader.

Then you:

Please tell me you get why that’s hilarious?

i wonder how long it will take them to delete this

saying anything against the mods on this board is never taken too lightly

by 3Kings650 on Aug 22, 2008 9:26 AM PDT 0 recs

That's a lie

They’ll respond in, like 4 hours, with the official rules. At this point, they should just create a webpage for it and paste a link to it every time they have to inform someone.

and...

even though its a slow time for warriors news….why is it that stupid trade proposals that will never happen (and would be criticized and probably deleted immediately during busier times) are currently populating the “recommended fanposts”

by 3Kings650 on Aug 22, 2008 9:33 AM PDT 0 recs

Because some of us got tired of the existing ones that had been up there for 5 days

We wanted to see something other than “I hate SPAIN” up there. And now it’s gone, you’re welcome. Now, make some useful posts so these can go away.

i dont know

some of the ones they delete are very interesting. and some are really dumb. like look at the list now. their are some trades that make no sense.

So I don't have a signature well these words would do! Who knew that upgrades can have downgrades too!

i agree

last week I tried posting ESPN’s link to Vincent Askew’s sex scandal story but the mods deleted it. In it, I shared my memories watching VA…not really sure why it was deleted as I was only helping “spread the news”…

I enjoy reading all posts, whether they make sense or not. That’s the beauty of blogs…opinions!! Like a$$cracks, everyone has their own. Sometimes these mods need to get off their high horse.

lol

i never asked for all of my posts to get recs but it was tiring for me to see for a couple of weeks no new news or recommended fanposts. the people made their decision. I never asked for them to be recommended.

by montadaboss on Aug 22, 2008 4:18 PM PDT up 0 recs

leave it up.

true GSOMers are checking the site everyday anyway. If something goes up, we will read it before it gets cycled out of the 5. Another point: I’m not so sure how important your analysis was… but i’ll give u credit for trying.

I agree

why would my trade proposal for Dwight Howard get deleted? It’s just as ridiculous as the other proposals but mine got deleted.

by boomdizzleness on Aug 22, 2008 4:21 PM PDT 0 recs

the other day they (whoever) deleted a fanpost by a guy introducing himself

It was nice fanpost by a Duck fan up in Oregon and there were some light-hearted posts about favorite college teams within the thread. And it got deleted!!!

This like the third time a perfectly decent thread that I’ve commented on has been deleted.

Part of the reason I come here is to banter, make friends, and meet other warrior fans and I don’t see why every fanpost has to meet this high standard of analysis. Why can’t there be thread by people introducing themselves? It would be one thing if nobody was commenting on it, but when you delete a thread that his multiple posts by people who are engaged in discussion with each other, you’re just being RUDE!

Are you sure it’s the regular moderators? Atma and F.J. are pretty cool about letting things work themselves out. Is there a new addition to the moderator squad?

by bloodsweatndonuts on Aug 24, 2008 10:38 PM PDT up 0 recs

it is

completely necessary to delete some post. Some of them are just ridiculously stupid and a waste of time to read. If they didnt delete any post there would be probably over a post a day that is completely stupid. I understand why no post are that great right now because its not bball season and nothing is happening, but dont try to force one. And all you people complaining about why ur article got deleted I KNOW WHY!!! Because they were stupid. Nobody cares about Vincent Askews sex scandal, who comes to a warrior website and wants to hear about sex scandals. Nobody wants to read about the Oregon Ducks, i have an idea, post it on a Oregon Duck website. And Boomdizzleness, yes there are some far fetched trades up rite now from montadaboss, but they are possible. A trade for Dwight Howard, thats just dumb, there is no financial and reasonable way that we could get him. . . . keep dreaming. So next time ur fanpost got deleted dont right another one about why it got deleted or tell us what ur deleted one was about, it got deleted for a reason, BECAUSE IT WAS STUPID.

Stick to the subject

According to your own rules, your comment here should be deleted. The issue is this:

The leader of our team broke his silence for the first time in a 6 minute audio interview. Although it was linked on a fanshot, someone made a full out fan post discussing/outlining Jack’s main points in the interview and opening up a discussion about our future.

Now respond to that? Stupid and waste of time to read? Please respond to the subject first before attacking/responding to other commentors on here or else you are contradicting your own points which are fair.

by BaronsClipps on Aug 24, 2008 1:49 AM PDT up 0 recs

Hummm....

Although it was linked on a fanshot, someone made a full out fan post discussing/outlining Jack’s main points in the interview and opening up a discussion about our future.

Maybe, just maybe, your analysis belonged as a comment in the fanshot. It seems like you posted a duplicate of another person’s fanshot and added some commentary. So… if somebody posts a DHoward trade that looks good, am I supposed to post that same trade with my own commentary as a new fanpost? No, if you have a comment about something, put it in an existing thread about that something. Starting a new thread is either plagarism or egotism. Both of which are grounds for deleting. For instance, if you want to comment about the 2009 draft, there’s a thread for that already.

i think

you could just work in a random phrase and add an exclaimation point, and see if it catches on. here are a couple suggestions: “not on my dancefloor!” “this oven is closed!” “kick off the shoes, dickface!” or “hardcore trampled!”

by cap'n hack on Aug 25, 2008 2:55 PM PDT up 0 recs

I like the first two

The third uses dirty language. The fourth uses big words, a big no-no when trash talking because often the recipient won’t understand them and they’re harder to say in the heat of the battle.

I’ve always been a fan of ones that sort of make sense at first pass, but make absolutely no sense when you actually think about what the words actually mean. This is why I love “this oven is closed!”, I hope you don’t mind if I use it.

feel free

the confusing declaration of victory in an argument should become a staple here. i think i might use a modified version of #3, something like “kick off the shoes next time,” something that sounds like i’m giving them condescending advice on internet debating, but just obviously makes no sense.

Autism

Do you have it? If so I am sorry and I wish you the best in your quest to have a normal life.

But if you don’t, wow… you’re really something. A FANSHOT IS JUST A LINK! I WROTE A FULL OUT ARTICLE NOT SOME COMMENTARY! HOW ARE YOU STILL DISCUSSING WHAT I WROTE WHEN YOU HAVE NEVER READ IT?! DO YOU ALSO REVIEW BOOKS YOU HAVEN’T READ?!

I understand you want to make a point, but if you can’t win an argument you can’t just change the facts or pretend you were somewhere that you weren’t in order to make it sound like you weren’t wrong buddddddddddddddddddddy. I hope you’re in college or something out in Boston cause you really need some edumacation my friend ha ha.

No need to call someone autistic. I used to work with autistic kids and I’m honestly offended you’re throwing that around as an insult.

by Atma Brother ONE on Aug 25, 2008 10:00 PM PDT up 0 recs

Here’s your "FULL OUT ARTICLE":

"

Hallelujah… huge sigh of relief, great to hear from Jack… he’s helping me keep my sanity while I continue to have Baron withdrawals (see my username).

Highlights:

Discussed Jack 1 Foundation grand opening/giving back to his hometown
Was aware BD MIGHT leave, didn’t expect BD to leave, but respects his decision and happy for him to be back in LA
THANKED THE WARRIORS FOR MAKING THE TEAM BETTER THAN LAST YEAR!
Team is more deep, more experienced
Looked forward to being a leader his whole life
PASSION BABY PASSION – “I’m wid’ it!”
Bobblehead: Also a dream of Jack’s
“That’s when you know you made it, when you got your own bobblehead!”
Waaaaaaaaaaarrriorsssssssssssss

"
——————————————————————————————————————————————
Your FULL OUT ARTICLE was posted AFTER the Fanshot>Link which you have already acknowledged. Honestly it’s a little arrogant and disrespectful that you didn’t just post it as a comment in that existing FanShot. It makes a great COMMENT, but when there’s an existing FanShot I can’t say I truly understand why you felt the need to drop this.

Hey it’s fine if you disagree. It’s fine if you think the way user submitted content is organized on this site isn’t great. I’m not going to argue with you. It’s also fine if you find another place on the web that you think fits your needs and taste better.

by Atma Brother ONE on Aug 25, 2008 10:02 PM PDT up 0 recs

Thanks Atma

Now that I’ve read the “FULL OUT ARTICLE”, I fully understand what I already expected.

To “BaronsClipps”, please read what Atma has posted here. If you still have difficulty putting whole sentences together, depending on your age, I suggest either attending a writing class at adult school or getting your parents to proofread your stuff. I’m not trying to be judgemental here, just honest.

Speaking of adult schools… they have great, cheap classes for everything. Any recommendations out there? The Boston adult school teaches a class on how to get into the voiceover business… out there, but cool.

Is that why you’re taking pot shots at my mental capability and the city where I live? I don’t even understand what you’re getting at here. Are you calling me an aloof a-hole or something? Or are you saying that when I type I replace my "R"s with "H"s? I don’t even get it man…

Wow Atma did I irritate you that much buddy? Thanks for taking sides and showing what you’ve really done to this site: made it a place to enforce your own views and control the fans as you please.

P.S. Why was this the first time someone recommended one of my posts? Not once, but 4 times and counting????

by BaronsClipps on Aug 26, 2008 9:35 PM PDT up 0 recs

FYI - You're a hypocrite

I didn’t even see it in the fanshot so don’t start calling me names like arrogant and disrespectful when you YOURSELF are saying not to call people names.

What if I called you a name? then you’d erase my post lol. I clearly missed the fanshot and didn’t notice it until after I posted my fanpost. WHY?! BECAUSE FANPOSTS SUCK AND NO ONE READS THEM! NO ONE COMMENTED ON IT EITHER! IT WAS A HUGE DEAL! WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO YOUR LITTLE SITE BUDDY? IT STARTED WITH BD AND DIED WHEN HE LEFT, JUST ADMIT IT. YOU ARE WAY OUT OF LINE JUMPING IN AND TAKING SIDES AND ATTACKING ME WHEN ALL IM TRYING TO DO IS DEFEND SOMEONE ELSES ATTACK ON ME. KEEP YOUR EMOTIONS OUT OF THIS MAN AND THINK LOGICALLY. JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE HAS POINTED OUT SOME MAJOR WEAKNESSES ON YOUR SITE DOESNT MEAN YOU HAVE TO ATTACK THEM.

Maybe this site is converting to communism after watching the Olympics

Hell, the largest country in the world is communist, this site should too I guess. What ever happened to freedom of speech and expression? There are so many douche bags on this site, half the things they say should be deleted, but they aren’t in the spirit of the 1st amendment. Now why certain posts get deleted for things such as slander and libel are one thing, but just because the “quality of writing” isn’t on par with say Atma Brother or Fantasy Junkie doesn’t mean they should be deleted.

r u serious

“Al Harrington works perfectly.” u think Al Harrington for Dwight Howard works perfectly, even though i would love to see that happen, i hope u were in ur own little way being sarcastic, or u just have no idea wat ur talking about.

Also “By the way, the trade was a complete joke” if the trade was a complete joke why were u bitching about it getting deleted? boomdizzleness if ur younger than i am (i am 12) and ur 10 or something i am sorry for picking on you, but if u r any older thats just sad.

wow. ur 12

and that’s why you can’t detect sarcasm. Your balls haven’t dropped yet and which means your sense of humor still finds “momma jokes” funny.

Since you’re going on here trying to call people out, I’ll return the favor. This is my 2nd SN, you erased my first one last year when we all cornered you (when the site had more visitors) on all your mistakes like enforcing opinions, telling us not to talk about Obama, defending racist attackers on your site, controlling free speech, and making up rumors with no references as to where they came from.

While we’re at it, should I remind you that we found your personal webpage last year with your picture in a knicks jersey proclaiming the knicks were your favorite team and then the warriors 2nd? You removed it but we have the pic saved so be careful who you out buddddddddddddddddddy.

by BaronsClipps on Aug 27, 2008 7:57 PM PDT up 0 recs

an opinion that you guys control the site too much?

??? They are very hands off ? Maybe a little housecleaning once in a while but nothing drastic. Got any other ideas for a new fanpost? The other one is old news. It probably got tossed by random fate, try again, what’s new? What do you really think about Tonypsd? :>)
