… will cleanse this place the way it should be and it is now under way. If anything, this past week has shown us that whatever the divide is on board opinions, the most harmful divide is the attack dogs, belittlers and badgerers who leg hump other posters from thread to thread like dysfunctional rebels without a pause… and then some.

The board many of us love has come to a point that a few problematic posters are running off really good members because guys for one reason or another can't debate civilly and move along when they can't agree and then they resort to this destructive behavior.

Ultimately posters decide that they can keep up with this team without being a target and they go elsewhere. It’s not only toxic to be on the receiving end but it's also toxic to read…. repeatedly. We’re tired of it… just about everyone is.

So… from this point on this behavior will no longer go unpunished. If people want to be extreme towards each other we will be extreme with how we deal with them.

If you do this now - stop doing this now. We gave you fair warning… beware.

Careful here.

A known leg humper was allowed back specifically to leg hump other posters, ie, “get their goats”.

That aside, i think one has to be careful not to neuter this site and take away some of the freewheeling nature that makes it unique.

Just my 2 shillings.

Minor stuff is one thing. Taking it from thread to thread to thread and insulting other posters is another. Baiting and non-stop badgering is a problem. It could be as simple as thread bans people don’t visibly see or it can be a lot worse.

A good example of badgering and baiting is what just happened to MackMiller. People want to take Bama shots at him. You’ve taken them as have others. One guy took it further - every time that MackMiller posted he went at him and then used insults until Mack had enough and legit asked to “meat” him.

No one has a right to do that to another member here. Non-stop goat getting will not be allowed either if it’s badgering and baiting behavior or just flat out ruining threads. Like I said, it may be as simple as thread bans you don’t see or it could be more extreme.

I thought this was going to be a thread previewing Manny’s next game against Mack.

Nothing ****es me off more in sports than leagues assuming that referees are incapable of making obvious "judgment calls" to punish stuff that goes against the spirit of the game like Euro/take fouls or foulbaiting (Trae Young/Chris Paul) BS in NBA. I think - regardless of how useless you think they are - we can trust the maudes to tell the difference between isolated incidents of bickering and toxic trolls who carry vendettas into every thread.

Cleansing the board is long overdue.
