    Very true. Kai can boot every single one of us if he wants. All within his rights. He is free to choose from a wide spectrum of choices, both good and bad alike.

    I did not originally intend for this to be about Kai specifically. His post was merely one of many posts I've seen with a similar theme. I wish discussion could be encouraged on this forum, not stifled. That was my only point, and I will leave it at that.

      Is this the post that got JH4P banned?

      If a post about stifling discussion is what got him banned, that certainly seems ironic.

        He is on a 24 hour mandatory vacation that was supposed to be 48 hours from last afternoon, but the system didn't work so I cut it short by about 12 hours to 24 left.

            Was Shaq really only a two star recruit? I am sure there isn't a single 2 star recruit from that class that is playing better than he is. I'd be surprised if there's a three star from that year playing better than he is. And that's comparing a freshman to sophomores since he redshirted.

              If that's what got him banned, then it is flat wrong. I like Kai, but if he banned him over this, then he needs to seriously reassess what a moderator is, because I see much worse from a number of posters everyday on this blog.

              Don't good moderator qualities include a sense of balance and fairness? Without bias?

              Is this board being run to cater to a few individuals with extreme opinions who are confrontational?

              I'd at least like to have some insight into why this happened. Yes, the owner of this blog can do what they want, but Jamar has posted here for a long time. I don't always agree with what he says, sometimes I think he was a little silly, but he never engaged in the kind of behavior that resulted in being banned, IMO.

                You were actively complaining that this thread even exists. You said it gets "really old" that you have to "deal with talking about this crap". Guess what? You don't have to talk about it! Posting/reading threads that don't interest you is not a requirement of forum membership.

                Sure, you weren't actively using mod powers to close a thread. In that sense, you weren't forcing people to stop. However, you were actively whining about a thread's existance simply because it does not interest you. THAT is the attitude that I'm saying needs to go away. If you (or any other poster) is disinterested in a thread, why not just stay out of the discussion altogether?

                    Come talk to me in a PM, I'm not discussing bans in a thread. I responded to let people know the situation, so they wouldn't keep asking. But there is more to this than just one post, don't kid yourself if you think one post got Jamar a 48 hour ban that's been cut to 36.

                    • No Kai, I was fine with the explanation that you provided just about the same time (literally minutes) before I made my post.

                      I thank you for your transparency and a brief explanation, I didn't want to hear all the gory details.

                      I also appreciate that you clarified that this was one of those 'time out' bans, not a permaban.

                        Ok, I sent you a PM before you made this last post. Just wanted to clear up anything if you had issues with how I handle the forum.

                        And, to anyone else, please send me a PM if you want to comment on bans. Posts after this one will be removed if they're in regards to banning.
