The Hootie thread
 

If we're going to have another 2000 post thread, it may as well be here.

Should be titled the Phobia thread.

I know I'm not a big donor or anything, but I will not donate anything else to this board unless/until the ban is lifted.

What happened this time?

Hootie mad:

Phobia got butthurt.

LMAO

Nice sig.

No one made Dane, Mecca, or Hamas leave.

Hmm....

Hootie and I don't get along at all but he shouldn't be perm banned judging from what he said in that thread it wasn't bad at all.

Hootie banned again?

That's actually hilarious.

Looks like it.

Yeah. It's great that the good posters are leaving in droves.

I'm lazy, what did he say?

What were the terms of his "short leash", if I may ask?

I don't like Hootie at all, but I don't think this was warranted.

Phil sighed, Hootie cried.

Though it probably isn't smart to egg on Phil or Bob Dole. This is pretty common knowledge.

Chiefs are red
My balls are blue
Hootie got banned
Phil, **** you!

Arguing with Hootie can be like arguing with a 12 year old girl, but at least he comes/came here to talk football and sports.

More than a couple of posters around here contribute.

I get all the girls cause I de shit. You Billay suck & live in your moms basement & are a virgin.

The funny thing is he'll blame you and me for it - anytime anything bad happens to him its our fault because we "sent PMs to Phobia."

This to. Every time like clock work.

Yeah he said the same shit over and over claiming I don't have a life now he's the one talking about lurking a site he was banned from lol.

Ooh, ooh! I get to use this for once!

I'm way out of touch, I know, but what did Hootie do to get put on the "short leash"?

Ummm.... a guy. He post stuff on here sometimes.

UNLIMITED POWERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

LMAO
FILTER EVASION

well i hope he gets unbann'd.

this is an awesome site, no one should ever have to leave. :thumb:

You still owe us two for the last two bans that were lifted. Honestly, it's your fault he's banned this time because you haven't come through with that $7.50.

him love you long time........

What are you talking about? I've never offered to pay to lift a ban on anyone, and I've never been banned.

LMAO

It's funny seeing Saul butthurt.

Link to the thread that got hoots run?

i have, no one really knows. most don't care.
sec

The rapist is gone?!?!?

No one made Hamas leave.

He'll be back.

Hootie wasn't banned without a good reason.

I'm sure he took a shot at a deity or something.

I just donated. I was overdue.

Nobody made Mecca or Dane leave, either. They're gone, though.

No the Chiefs winning made Mecca leave.

7-9?

Leaving in droves? Really?

Dane left because the mods didn't do what he wanted them to do.

He hasn't been posting as often since the 2010 season.

Dane
Mecca
Hootie
Hamas
Peanut
htis
banyon

All of them are either gone or rarely post anymore. I didn't even like a couple of those posters, but you're never going to have a board where all of the posters like each other.

They won the division so he couldn't come around here and tout who they should have drafted this put him at a huge disadvantage for 2011. He did make a few posts this year but disappeared once again when the team started play well in December.

LOL! That was a really ****ing short leash.

How many of those were run off by bad moderating?

The correct answer is none.

People change over time and find new things to occupy their time. Others think too much of themselves and feel they are wronged because things don't go their way. Then you have others like Hootie that constantly push buttons and then act outraged when they actually get the banhammer they were making a push for.

You forgot MrBlonde.

LMAO

In case anyone wonders why I'm taking a break from the mod gig, posts like this are why. Unless I've missed something, the mods had nothing to do with Mecca, Hamas, Peanut, or banyon "leaving" at all. Dane left because he didn't think the mods were strict enough. Hootie's gone because the mods are too strict. htis left because he WAS a mod and got shit all over when people didn't agree with his decisions.

Moderating is a completely thankless job around here - no matter what you do (or don't do), you get bitched at for it.

So, with that...**** all of you, and goodnight.

Even me??? :deevee:

I like to think that banyon and Dane are living on a farm now with plenty of sheep to worry, and room to run until they find rest under a perfect, peaceful shade tree.

FYP

I got banned for two days. Why? Because Im the only REAL fan on here and people can't handle the truth. Nice banning.

Other than Hootie, what do the others have to do with Mods?

I'm facebook friends with Dane - if anybody wants me a pass along a message, I'd be happy to.

I would guess Dane, but that has to do with how he wanted a situation handled and it wasn't handled the way he wanted it to be.

Ya tell him to come back so we can talk shit to you together

It's simply not true. I don't mind criticism. If I banned people for criticizing me, half of the posters on this thread would be banned, no? Hootie raised a valid point. In fact, I brought back the 3 Honorable Mention bans after I read it.

Hootie was allowed back on this site 2-3 times after earning legit bans over the past year.

I'm not going to share the exact quote of the terms of his ban because it was a private correspondence and it wasn't from me, but it essentially boiled down to "don't be a douchebag or you're going to be gone again".

Since receiving those instructions he's been banned for 2 days as a reminder and been warned at least once that he's on a short-leash and what being on the "short-leash" means.

This isn't just Phil doesn't like Hootie. That's true. I don't. I don't like a few other people either but I don't run around banning people I don't like.

This is an issue that has been discussed ad nauseum by the mods. It's not something that we take lightly and just decided because one of us may have been on the rag.

It's not over any one post. It's a body of work. It's a process.

No you didn't. **edit, actually you did get banned for 2 days for Honorable Mention in the DOTY contest.

But, I brought you back early. I do feel badly about it though. I'm going to add 2 days to the end of your tenure here.

Yeah, that'll get him back.

Yeah he promised me a grilled avocado burger.:thumb:

Haha what like an hour? Whatever

It constantly amazes me how you handle everything so perfectly.

It's like a gift.

:hail:

Damn, that sounds tasty.

It's the Patriot way.

Yep,still waiting!LMAO

apparently you do.

it's some Weak Sauce. like when I got into with Pawnmower the other day and you tried Guilt Tripping me with the "my friends daughter died of cancer and you two are arguing on a message board"

it's your job to Moderate, not be the Fun Police.

Thanks for the explanation. Makes more sense now.

I didn't say it had to do with the mods. I said that lots of good members have been leaving, and they have. Why ban another one for no good reason? Maybe if he really provided solid football takes by creating a douche tournament, he wouldn't be seen as a troll.
