    This thread is already being derailed enough. All naming names would do is get the people named on the defensive and make this thread devolve into another slew of personal attacks that seems to happen to pretty much every thread here.

    Like I said, not the point of this thread. I think my complaint is valid, and I don't have to name names to get my point across. I'm actually trying to bring up a problem that I think is hurting this board. Calling people out would do nothing to help that.

    If you think this is a "stupid-ass" thread, you are free to not read it.

    I think BTB is right in that at times, there seems to be a double standard here.

    Also Coach, I hope the fact that I have less than 10,000 posts doesn't mean that you aren't my polish/black brother from another mother.

    If someone is really that concerned about this board "going to shit" or "going to the toilet", they're free to not visit. We have a lot of members who give it out plenty, but can't take it at all or start whining to the Moderators. Pretty stupid if you ask me. Don't like it? Leave. Pretty simple.

    You've named Zam, which really makes the topic difficult to discuss without bringing it back to Zam.

    Is there a possiblity (I'm not talking about Zam, but just in general), that there are some posters who really don't add much to the overall level of the football conversations, and tend to derail threads on a consistent basis, and disrupt the board overall?

    If so, if those people get "attacked" by an undefined "clique" who do post here regularly and do contribute to the overall conversation, what action would be better for the board overall?

    In other words, what is the community asking of the moderators? Do we try to keep the overall peace at the expense of one "trouble-maker" being suspended, or do we go after several active and long-time posters who seem to be understandably upset with one poster who goes into each thread like the tasmanian devil?

Kind of the same way here.
    Exactly.

    In Zam's case, if you have followed his bannings since he's been here you will also notice that he chose to take his fight public with the mods. I dont care if you are a new timer or old timer, that will most certainly get you banned regardless.

    You dont post as much as the rest of us with nothing better to do...but you've been around regularly and forever. You can claim my brotherhood any time

    I've always wanted to have a public fight with a mod. Unfortunately, I've always respected the mods here too much. Dammit!

    Yet you participate in the same behavior....like calling out Chaz in any Rahim Moore thread, even if he hasn't posted in it. Stop being a hypocrite.

    NTL posts some food for thought. Over moderating does suck. It's why us Mania people are here.

    At the end of the day you just have to find a forum that works for you. There are many to choose from so if your not happy here or think this board is "shit" than by all means move along to another. Its really not that big of a choice to make. This forum and the world in general will continue to spin without you.
