Well i could flip the f*** out like Dutchy after the drunk-posting debacle, but i won't.

 

The truth of the matter is that mods are supposed to be unbiased, like SOTK, MSU, and Coco, and if you judge people on the fact that for some reason, you don't like them on a personal level, you're not being a good mod.

 

The funny thing is that some posters get away with harrassing new posters and accusing them of being an old poster, being douchebags, or issuing personal attacks on a constant basis, but people that used to post a lot like me or a700 were moving targets for some people.

 

Take this RWTP character for instance, i attacked his post, he attacked me personally, so i retaliated. (i'm talking about the old thread by the way). But the mods don't like me (insert sad face here) so i'm the bad guy.

 

Look at Jacko jumping all the SoxFanforLife due, he's a good new poster, he makes sense, he likes the forum, but he's getting personally attacked, even being called pink hat, now, it's Jacko, so he can get away with it, if i do it, i'm getting an angry PM from yeszir jumping all over my balls.

 

Now the reason the site isn't as lively as it used to be has a lot to do with the double standards exhibited by part of the mod team. If you're going to implement rules, implement them for everyone, which is why i'd always reply ******** with ********. I'm not saying i didn't start a lot of the shitstorms, but i sure as hell didn't start all of them.

 

Same for Emmz, she got harrassed by "some" on the site to the post where she barely posts anymore, but some mods didn't "like"her because she had similar thoughts as me on a lot of things. Where were the angry PM's defending her from harrasment?

 

Ted too, i used to give the guy a lot of s***, but we talked off-site and he knew everything was in good fun, but where the angry PM's defending him?

 

In the end, unless the double standard stops, and you decide to measure everyone with the same stick, the activity will continue to decrease to the point where, like Jacko himself said after Crespo was banned "Next thing you know, the site is a graveyard".

 

You could have just banned me and diony instead of sabotaging the IP range, and creating the "Gift of the heavens"" as you call it, but it would have been an unjustified banning, i presume.

 

Well you can ban me now if you want, seeing as i'm not "liked" because i say what i think and respond when people attack me (not saying i don't start s*** though), but of course, it's seen as though i'm always the one on the attack.

 

Oh, and something could certainly be learned from SOTK's and MSU's way of moderating. Just saying.

 

Please continue to allow the "liked"posters to do whatever they while most guys who actually bring something to the site leave or get banned.

Quit whining. Seriously, your s*** starts fights, ALL THE TIME. You helped turn this place into a graveyard by driving away a ton of new people with your s*** and now you are being a hypocrite saying that others do the same. Why don't you tuck tail and leave again. You whine about how I and some others do harm to this site. Well, I've been here for 4 years and since my return, this site has survived my "harassment." But over the past yr that you have been here, a bunch of solid posters have left, mostly because your s*** propogates others to act like an *******. I have received 3 PMs from respected members who have essentially gone elsewhere or faded into the background because it isnt worth their time fighting with you. So why dont you do all of us a favor. You've seen some others hint at your decrease in activity as a good thing. Well, it is. Try decreasing it further.

In all fairness, you get away with crap that he doesn't though. I'm not supporting Dipre's actions, and I'm not saying that he shouldn't be punished accordingly, but it's a double, or even triple standard, when people like you don't get punished and disciplined, and Dipre does. To be honest, I feel that if it weren't for a quota of Yankee fans, that you'd have been banned years ago.

 

Look, pretty much everyone on this site is confrontational (except for MSU, but he's the nicest person I've ever met). Arguments are going to happen, as people aren't going to agree. However, it's not fair to treat people differently. Alot of things from some people get swept under the rug while others are quickly temp or even permabanned. Do I need to even mention Zonagirl?

 

As much as Dipre is out of line, he's right. Pretty much everything he said was true.

Well, you could say that or you could say

 

"Hey, if you want to stick by a biased opinion created by personal dislike for a player that's been disproven by two of the smartest people on TS while not looking very smart in the process, more power to ya"

 

Your words dude, not mine. If you can't see how you're provoking crap with the last half of that sentence, then you're blind.

 

say your piece without trying to dig the knife in every single time you think you're less wrong than the other guy. This forum will be a better place as a result.

Now again, you started the person attack on me (go back and read it) and I finished it. It the same old story with you. I called you out for it now and I called you out for it then. There is a big reason why I hardly come on here anymore. You do this with everyone and you get away with it. All you are good at is insulting the posters on here.

I am glad I am not the only one who see what is in most of Depre's posts.

I think we should all get a keg of Sam Adams' date=' a litre of Jack, some cigars and a hooker and get along.[/quote']

 

I would rather a liter of Cola.

This game thread has turned into a pointless argument. From the time that I've been here Dipre has been pretty cool. I've only been here a month but I'm just saying from what I've seen. Only guy I've really encountered an argument was with Jacko. Always seems to taunt us when we do bad and loves to argue about why the yankees are better. Seriously though even if Dipre a s*** starter(not saying he is) calling him out like that won't help the situation anymore. You don't like him that's fine but theres no reason to get in this dumb debate.

Thought everyone might want to see this(if was mentioned during the game, I apologize):

 

 

From ESPN game recap:

 

Game notes

Shields, who barely played last year before season-ending surgery on his left kneecap, made just his sixth appearance in the Angels' last 21 games. ... Angels CF Torii Hunter didn't play while mired in a 4-for-23 slump. ... A swarm of bees emerged from a hive under the upper deck at Angel Stadium in the seventh inning, but disappeared a few minutes later.

 

LOL!

Posted
Haha, that happened in San Diego not too long ago, and caused a game delay. In addition, the San Diego LF (who was the closest to the bees) Kyle Blanks, is allergic to bees, so he got the hell out of there.

Bees huh? Let's all calm down by reminiscing over a hilarious part of recent Yankee history.

All I want is to come here and talk about the game and express an outside-the-box dea and get a little feedback on it without perennially being called a tom fool, I don't really think that's really too much to ask.

If you want to do a "Best Red Sox Picture Ever" contest, I have another nomination...
