BLACK FLAG LIST

Bob's right. Generally speaking, banning IS a bad idea. I can understand Willie's frustration with some of these bozos, but closing this board down to a privileged few is a very un-Iowan thing to do, and very short-sighted.

BTW, how many of you folks talk trash on the P-State or Minny boards just to stir things up? Fess up. What goes around comes around. We get the crap that YOU deserve.

Looks like I'm still alive, nobody mention my name so far. What would I do if I couldn't post on your board. My wife would be pissed at you guys because I would have to start hanging out with her again.

Your wife appears to be rather scary.

Don't kid yourself, Mike, everyone has you on ignore. I drew the short straw this week and "have to" respond to your posts.

My Mike T watch is up at midnight, FWIW. I think WWDM is next.

I am confused on how I feel about this.don't like the witch hunt feel of it, but I really dispise people who post only to slam on others.

Ban hammer?
When did this become bwi?
Can't everyone that loves to bash Iowa continue to do it on the mat? What's the big deal trying to get rid of these guys from the Hawkeye board. Maybe you could invite them to the gopher board and see how the gopher fans like it.

it's killing me ... trying to find out who you are .... i'm sure we were good friends in HS 50 years ago (give or take 20). i'm rick (the guy that blasted his C5 and C7 spine discs in the last HS football game my senior season)
 
I think Stollhouse would agree with you.

Haha...I think I busted Wildturk's balls the most on that one but he is an Iowa guy.

I guess we need to define troll...is it anybody who is an opposing fan and comes over to tout their team? Personally, there are only a few like Greenwave and his multiple aliases. Every time he posted, he would logon under another name and agree with the original post...like he was getting backup from someone else. So Willie, going to have to disagree with you on this one unless we can somehow get WWDM banned again just so he has to add another W to his name...I'd buy you a breakfast burrito or something to see that.
 
I think I'm for not banning people, although that could change tomorrow. I've put a few people on ignore and I think that works well.

I'll get the coffee on that. Plus, I heard the next time WWDM gets banned (which would be his fourth or fifth?) he's coming back as WDMHawkeye! which sounds exciting and scary all at the same time.

Seems like I recall some American Revolution Patriot saying something to the effect of "I may disagree with what you say, but I will defend with my life your right to say it."

That pretty much says it for me.

Censorship not needed here. Bad idea, bad idea.
 
I understand that some people like to come on here and rile us up with some d*&p#$%t comments, but this is a slippery slope, gentlemen. It's easier to not let these people, who confirm that it's not a good idea to marry your cousin, get our goats. Also, some of the crap that comes out of their mouths is pretty entertaining.

I graduated from Sheldon in '80. I'm guessing you are younger than me, Rick. I'm Scott and you might know my younger sister Shana?
 
Doesn't Rivals have like a 10 day sin bin if you break their rules? It's not like temporarily banning a troll violates their human rights or anything. Neither life, liberty nor the pursuit of happiness are at stake here.

A ban for isolated or periodic smart ass posts is one thing, but if a poster's main aim is to instigate the home board's regulars, he's breaking the rules and needs to suck it up, sit it out for a bit, and learn some manners.

My 2 cents as an opposing fan
 
I think the only thing that needs to be banned or censored is.......HIWILLIES original idea to make a Black Flag list.

I mean c'mom guys.....Willies the guy that started that epic Brody thread.....and look what happened there. How'd Brody do this past weekend. Talk about dashing Hopes.

Like others have said....use the ignore button. It's there for a reason.

And Ferentzin04, myself and several of my other alias will FIGHT ANYONE WHO DISAGREES WITH US. SO THERE. :mad:

You take the first round Ferentz...:eek:

That doesn't happen much because they ban negative posters.

Get it done Willie. If you can ban a few of them, they will start being more respectful on here. Might have to do a yearly clean up.
 
Personally, I think that unless threats or objectively inappropriate behavior is noted that banning is not really a good idea. I definitely could do without Lemon Pie but the rest are just meh. People shouldn't be banned simply for being asshats or being critical of our wrestlers. For the most part the ignore feature does it's job.
-------

I have no problem with mikeT or jammanz. They support other teams...so what. wildturk shanked one, but at heart, a loyal fan. Wouldn't want any of them banned. FTigs makes idiotic and misleading posts, but doesn't deserve banning.

Lemonpie, on the other hand should be booted. A pure troll whose contributions consist of "hahahaha" when an iowa guy loses.

Lets not make this board like the little sissy Husker board....I do not post often on wrestling threads (just read) b/c I am not that knowledgeable about wrestling as other sports...but being from Iowa and being a Hawkeye fan I love to keep up to date. With that said the wrestling threads pale in comparison to the football and basketball boards as far as trolls are concerned. It probably helps that Iowa is by far the most historically successful program so what are most other posters going to say??? Granted it seems that if we do not win the Title and finish 2nd or 3rd it is a major disappointment, but it is what it is I guess

The only person who should be banned is the guy who set up the Nationals pool a few years back and took the money and ran.....

Who was it again? And they seriously never paid out anything?

I don't remember who it was, but it was about the time I started following the board. I thought it was a joke at first. I probably shouldn't even mention it as it still may hit a nerve with some of the posters.
 
Communism, Socialism, Fascism, authoritarianism, totalitarianism, all rolled into one........I LIKE IT!!!!!!:cool:
 
I thought that guy eventually settled up with everyone. I remember thinking it was a hoax, but I thought someone later posted that he did settle up.
 
We don't need a PC Police Force. I like to read posts from people with different views and who support other teams. It makes the discussion more interesting and livelier. I like jammenz posting here.

This is a terrible idea.
Why do you call yourself Big. Bob?

Amen on that Tognetti, a man's man of all teams except OU. As for that jammanz, doesn't know what he is talking about. A real homer!

I don't mind mike jammanz or miket or a few others who respect the long time Iowa fans and posters here on the site. I agree with a lot of what they have to say and they tend to use humor to make points along with their OCCASIONAL jabs.

On the other hand you have the incessant pen state trolls come across as know it all goofs who really have a limited -- very limited -- grasp on reality. They are like an inbred pack of rats who tend to stick together in word and deed. It's as though they use talking points from the bwi board. They are here for one reason--to irritate and infect our site with their proven, perverse views.

If we can't ban them-- which is unlikely to happen-- I'd like to see a more spirited defense when we do see these rats scurrying about on our site spreading deceit and depravity.

Poison the rats with words. Sounds like a job for Bob Dylan.
