exsqueeze me - notice the link i post.

I think you're mixing up threads here. You linked to the post you're referencing to in another thread, not this one.

that guy posted somehting about hi rookie of the year....
which turned into
SIXTEEN FRICKING PAGES of

is too
is not

Some guy posting about a bad rookie of the year, I posted agreeing that the rookie of the year decisions are often bad, and said that I am in favor of allowing the option to choose your own awards, and was told by somebody that he cares what I do in my own games. I, myself, did not turn that thread into a flame war, nor do I recall ever flaming anybody. Also note that there were multiple other posters, including ohms_law, who took the same side as me that there is no issue with allowing an option, and that they also posted multiple times ("back and forth"). Stop trying to lay all the blame for long arguments on me.

and speaking of altering words, funny how you changed my sentence from
"fray" "argument" to discussion.

"Frays", "arguments", and "debates" often result from a discussion. All an argument or a debate is is a discussion with two opposing sides. Moderators should not be forced to remove themselves from any discussion that results in a two-sided issue.

also kinda funny how you dont notice at the people in your closer topic who disagree cuz they are as plain as day ,

I've reread the entire thread, and frankly, you're the only person I see "disagreeing." In fact, many different posters said that they've noticed the same thing and that it is a problem. I personally believe that you're only disagreeing out of your dislike for me. IMy "stance" is that Mogul does not use closers in a manner consistent with history. I don't see how you can disagree with this, when a simple simulation of any season and comparing the closers to those in real life show this crystal clear.

and its also funny how the initial post and several replies have vanished. i recall that thread started with you giving a specific example with mariano and torre, thats magically vanished.

so if youre going to say something like "show me where"

dont edit the threads beforehand.

very convenient !

I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Deleted posts remain on the forums, but are hidden from non-moderators, and all the other moderators can vouch for me that there are no deleted posts in the closer thread. In addition, posts which have been editted say so. I did edit the original post. I forget exactly what I changed, but I don't ever recall having some example about Mariano Rivera and Joe Torre in that thread.

And now I see:

JUST to be fair to HGM,

i think maybe i am just confused and it is this closed thread about basically the same thing that i was thinking of when referring to editing.

http://forum.sportsmogul.com...d.php?t=157502

So you were talking about an entirely different thread, one of which had no relation to my comment in your thread with the screenshots. Even in this case, there are no edits nor deleted posts in that thread. (There are actually 4 deleted posts, all 4 of which were deleted by their posts, 1 of which was my final post in the thread which I posted before realizing that the thread was closed, so I respectfully removed it)

so now im going to outright challenge you.

IF you can manage to simply not hit reply ,

i wont see any need to further share my actual opinion of you or the situation.

You've attacked me and made false accusations. Sorry, I'm not going to let those stand.

That's baiting.

In that case, I believe that, as with most internet forums, baiting and trolling should be prohibited and posters that do show should be warned, and those that continually do so should be suspended and/or banned

If HGM wants to "debate" everyone on the forums until they're banned, then let him.

That is NOT what I want to do. I want to simply post my thoughts, as does every single other poster. As with all discussion boards, there are going to be different thoughts and opinions, and people are going to discuss and debate them. Discussing and debating different ideas does not get anybody banned. It is when it gets to the point that insults start being thrown that such things occur, and rarely by me.

Word. Again. Muhahahahahahahahahahaha!

Then do it! Have fun. Type in Phoenician and translate it into pig latin. Write it in crayon on your monitor, take a digital picture and post it. Submit it in crossword puzzle form.

I d_o_n'_t c_a_r_e!

No! I have to have the last word!
