I personally don't care about the constant harassment, but having to wade through nine pages of howling monkeys distracts from the forum and chases good posters off. There are a couple posters (who I won't name here) that made a point of attacking certain posters after every single post.

I don't know if it's control issues and not being able to handle anyone disagreeing or what, but it's petty and childish and lowers the usefulness of the forum in addition to running people off. I like more Jazz input and am looking out for new posters who don't appreciate being harassed for not being a card carrying member of the bro club's talking points.

I recommend you call them out. I've done it before. We all troll at times.. but there are a few that ONLY troll.. or at least vast majority.
It doesn't really bother me much or I'd gladly be vocal.. though I'm a real man.
 
mods, please merge this with the thread entitled, "the legacy of letting Troutbum run amok for years." Thanks.

I feel ya... But srs this board would be down right boring with out some "trolling" and what I consider the "spice" of this board!!! Do we get a bit to much Paprika here and there yes, but usually that stuff gets sorted out!!

As a new member years ago I found it hard to break in and didn't feel like I belonged!!!

But just like the time I spent 6months living In an Indian township in South Africa, I had to get use to the Indian foods and all their spices, it took time but now Indian food has to be one of my favorite types of food cause of all the different flavored it brings to my pallet!!!!

But for some they'll never like Curry!!
 
I'm not talking 'some "trolling"'. Are you saying we should allow unabated trolling/harassment/stalking by a handful of posters (who might not even be Jazz fans)? No thank you.

Only think maybe two of those guys aren't Jazz Fans... The others are probably just sick with how this season has gone and have dropped their srs discussion for trolling Cuz this season for the most part has been a waste!!!

You can for sure put me in that group...

So my deepest apologies frank... But I ain't changing till the Jazz do!!
 
I am so tired of it too frank. That's why I haven't been posting as much lately. Its gotten so bad. The cyber bullying is out of control. Some guy (I can't name names) constantly harasses me about picking Blake Griffin in a fantasy draft, every where I go. I mean C'mon, who wouldn't pick him, and why do you keep bringing it up, its not helping your case, I won the contest. Plus I picked Blake in my fantasy basketball draft and I placed third. Its not just this guy either. Its 20-30 of them. All they do is harass and muck up threads. I don't have time to be sifting through all of it either. I just want some clean, fast, get to the point takes. Even adding some pictures would be nice. This place was great back in the day when I was a lurker. There were some great posters but they were run off.. Now its just the blind leading the blind
