Stan's Vendetta

Wow. A Steeler fan saying Browns fans don't get it. One is widely known as the most loyal, hardcore fans in the NFL (Browns), and the other is known as the bandwagon, only-follow-their-team-because-they're-winning-which-makes-it-trendy-fake football fans (Steelers). Most steeler fans have no clue what it means to be a football fan. It's not going to someone elses board to brag about your team and pretend they represent you (which is something a shallow frontrunner who only CHOOSES winning teams would do because it's trendy and convenient, obviously) and make yourself feel better by trying to identify the success of one team over another with yourself over another person.
Steeler fans take pride in the winning - that has nothing to do with them, in fact it just shows that they're frontrunners. Where was all the crap about away fans and Steeler "nation" when they were sucking balls in the 1980s? Ask yourself that question.

Browns fans take pride in being...Browns fans. It's totally different fanhood -- it's real.

Maybe someday you'll understand what it is.

Steeler nation was everywhere in the 80's. Sold out every home game that decade. I love how you Retards ignore that the Steeler fans have been determined to be the most loyal and best traveling fans and you just flat out deny it...

Stan does get a bit hefty with the delete key sometimes...hehehe.. sometimes i will post a reply and the thread is already gone.. lol but he prolly gets a lot of people whining about some posts im like rich and chuck on that issue i dont like to see posts deleted unless its utter garbage...some of that stuff stan deletes is just flat hilarious and not to offensive really i like freedom of expression/speech but thats just me..not everyone can handle it though...hey stan that cardinal helm avatar is offensive!
Delete it! lol

I recently hired a couple of new Moderators ... their response to a full day on the job is, "Are you xxxxing serious? You put up with this shit everyday?"

I am unfairly characterized as pulling or altering every post that get pulled or altered. Actually, I spend very little time here most days. I am however, guilty of prompting my Mod's to xxxx with anyone that becomes a nusiance.

Some ask, "Why does Rich's post get altered and most Steeler fem's post do not?" ... easy, the Steeler fan, although of a different opinion than most of us, isn't a nusiance. Whereas Rich will call everyone assholes and idiots in every thread he touches ... his attacking posts will be removed to prevent an all out war breaking out within a good football discussion and he will keep putting the same violating post up time and time again. What do we do? We say "xxxx-it' and we start altering his posts. It's either that, ban him, or keep spending all of our time her baby-sitting him.

Why do new posts that might not be all that bad, and even might by funny to respond to disappear? Because the asshole who just put it up probably just had several posts moderated and we aren't about to let him start a new post that is among the same topic as a thread already started which he just got done basically posting about the same thing. It is an attention getter post, and we don't feel he deserves the floor.

Like I said, come Moderate this mosh-pit for a day or a week. You get to the point where you just say 'xxxx-it' thrown down the gloves and start going on the assult. Screw these Steeler fems ... a heavily altered & Moderated forum here is way better than anything else they've found among their own kind ... if it weren't why else stay here?

This place has a pulse ... dissorted by all means ... yet a pulse never-the-less.

I'll gladly take the bullet for all Mod's here ... but just like with any profession, you can't manage every minor aspect of your employees decisions. However, I certainly don't blame them. The energy is turned up here, it's why we all frequent here ... but don't question the way we guard the wall.

It's the off-season. The Steeler fems are allowed in as a joke, just to keep things fun. After we are done with them, they will take a reduced role or be tossed. It will be on my call at the request of the Mod's here.

Ask any Mod here ... if anything, we allow way too much, so don't go crying about censorship and freedom of speech. Your free to leave.

GO CARDS!

You whiners don't seem to get it.

Stan foots the bill for this board. While it is open to the public to join, it still requires registration, and it is a moderated board - you agreed to this when you joined.

It is not funded with public money; it IS funded with private money (I know some of you xxxxing commies don't understand the concept of private property, bear with me anyway). That makes this board HIS property. He can boot you out of his house if he doesn't like what you have to say. This is just like his house. He can boot you out if he doesn't like what you have to say and can censor or edit posts. Similarly, the mods are acting on his behalf and carry the same authority.

If you don't like it, go start your own board. THAT is what FREEDOM OF SPEECH and FREEDOM is all about. That is what is American. Not expecting someone else to foot the bill, then bitching that you don't like how it's run.

In summary, you dumbaasses whining about getting posts edited, can go someplace else.

Stan:
There are countless NFL team forums out there that don't have the theatrics and freak show that you harbor here. You are proud of your freak show and you invite people from all over to come see the freak show by your poor handling of this board. A mature, intelligent, person who had final say would never encourage his mods to xxxx with opposing team fans.

I have actually seen reference to this site on a totally non related web forum where they where flabbergasted by the ignorance displayed here by Browns fans......particularly you!

You are obviously a very bitter and small person and it shows to anyone open-minded enough to see it.

Back to the freak show...........

Let me just point out that you not only frequent here often, but that you are on your obvious second/multiple screen name and have even moved with us from our old forum.

What was that you were saying again?

Formerly Stone said:
Not sure I follow your gibberish but I think you are accusing me of having a second screen name? Yep, because your mignonettes blocked my original when the transition occurred; as they did with many others. Any more stupid comments?

No, my point is that you not only keep coming back, but you've re-registered multiple times, and even moved with us and learned an entirly new format ... all to point out that we are the biggest 'freak show' on the net?

It's obvious Stone ... you see the entertainment and you're hooked. One don't watch David Letterman because He is a big fan of Jay Leno.

Oh and on learning a new format? One of the web forums I frequent most uses this format so it was no trouble at all

I see ... nice avatar, btw.

Hiwaygal I respect your perserverance, but ultimately it's a futile exercise to attempt to edjumacate an inbred Yinzer of the magnitude of poor sad Still Stoned.

You aint real bright is ya? A public forum that is private property? I'm sorry girl but you just aren't sharp enough to play in this sandbox. Stan owns the rights to the forum......the......"public"........forum?????? I typed that real slow for ya

What kind of idiot starts lecturing on a football board about the difference between public and private?

Please go away. Maybe you can find a Blackstone forum where you can discuss your favorite subject.

If you don't like your posts getting deleted or changed, then stop posting here. Lets not make a message board out to be the daily news. or great works of literature. It is a message board.
Lets not break out the soap box over everything.

Stan edits and pulls my shit all the time. Personally, it doesn't bother me because i just post it again, unless my ever active mind comes up with some other shit and then I jsut move on to something else.

I always thought my crap was far more offensive to Browns fans than Rich's stuff since I choose to only include a bit of football with my posts. Rich generally sticks to football and facts. His interpretation pisses a lto of people off but honestly, when it comes to calling out players, picking who we should draft and football related topics, nobody here has been more accurate than Rich.

I don't think Stan gets personally offended by any of this bullshit, however without spending his entire life examining each and every post, I think he just makes some gross )as in general, not disgusting) overall decisions to clear the highway and hopefully keep it on track.

Rich and I will always be targets, me mostly because I have entered most of your wives, but that's a whole different issue altogether. But Rich? I never have understood why he pisses you guys off so much.

Seriously, many of you really are simpletons to get that worked up over words on a message board.

Rich ain't that right all the time, he just states that he is right all the time more than the rest. It's his fence-sitting Steeler bullshit coupled with his 'better than thou' attitude that follows slured attacking posts on the heels of squandering a bet.

Besides that, the guy is genuine.

@hiwaygal said:
You think I don't get it...after spelling it out for you at least twice.
Stan owns the forum because he pays for the server space to host the forum. Server space to host a board like this isn't free...and I don't know the specifics, but the recent move had to cost some coin.

He allows it to be "public" because of HIS CHOICE. He could ask payment to be a member here. He could ask for donations to help support the costs of running this board.

His board, his rules...why is that so hard to grasp?

Private board doesn't grant anyone the license to libel, slander, impersonate of falsify another person's words. NBC, ABC, CBE, Fox etc are all pirvately held companies. They have every right to edit whatever they want to edit, but they DON"T have the right to change another person's words, or do any of the other crap.

There is plenty of precedent to back that up. LAw is law, buying a website doesn't give you immunity from any of that.

it's the reason you piss me off, for sure. and i know telling you will just encourage you, but i'm too amazed when you're actually sane and reasonable for me to be anything but honest.

why do you choose to be such a dick all the time?

<<Maybe if you and your TROLL STEELER buddies weren't such assholes you and your opinions would be welcomed. YOu have to admit Rich, you have always been a dick.................................a real big dick.>>

Dude, NOBODY, not even that asshole Jack and his guaranteed picks is/was a bigger asshole than you. You stupid, dumb old bastard, it wasn't that long ago you were "investigating" me by talking to some ursuline HS jackoofs who barely knew me back in 1970.

You are a lowlife piece of fungus infected feces. When you open your pie hole feces is all that comes out.

Hey, why don't you tell me again how your asshole buddy who is a coffee fetcher for the Bears ASSURED YOU, that Romeo Crennel was a first -class football brain who would absolutely be successful in Cleveland? Do you thinkg Jerkmeat Angelo is going to give wunderkind Crennel a job in Chicago? Funny, I don't hear anyone fighting for Romeo, do you? Lotsa head coach positions being talked about but Romeo's name is nowhere to be found.

You blow and your family tree is a fat, rotted stump.

A couple reasons,

Look man there might be some truth to this ego shit, God knows mine is huge, but really, it aint that because in person I am a pretty supportive guy, HOWEVER, my style is not that different from Goose Gosich. He threw in a lot of unhittable shit with his fast balls, AND, he only threw fastballs. People still swung at his shit because they knew if they backed off the phucker would throw one down the pipe..

Ghoolie Gosich, that's me.

MODERATORS:

Let's not waste time deleting or altering posts anymore. If you have to pull more than one violating post by ANY member of this site, let's just ban them. Send me a PM, if you need help in this new procedure of banning a member. No reason needed, just say the word and I will ban them.

I already banned one this morning after having to pull the same themed posts all last night and again already this morning. These guys obviously don't take the hint and the good-natured altering of their post that allowed them to continue to post here with merely a humorus and obvious play with their known violating posts.

Hope this is the black-n-white moderation, that most who had the light-hearted moderation enforced on them, will be more happy with.

If you had your post(s) altered or deleted in the past, you're welcome for the limp-wrist warning.

Moderators, we have a quota set to ban at least five accounts today, so let's get busy.

I absolutely can't believe the stupidity of you people. Even for Browns fans! Do you honestly believe that simply owning something gives you the right to do anything you want with it? How about a gun? Do a little research.....it may help you to prevent making a fool of yourself......again.
Owning a forum gives you the right to delete posts and ban members who fail to follow your rules as long as those rules are consistent with accepted practice within a "public" forum. I never saw a rule that said you weren't allowed to speak truth about the host or his favorite team. Stan is the biggest and most prolific offender of the rules which govern public forums and he is too stupid to even understand it......he, too, thinks that because he paid his $13 for a Browns message board he can do anything he wants.

Back to the freak show................The 8th time I saw Culture Club I got backstage. Needless to say it was a good time.

My last post on this thread................let's put it to bed

Pretty good insight Stone. And thanks for presenting rational thought and indeed that public or private does not give anyone the right to "publically" fraud other people. You understand and kudos to you for posting like an adult on this thread.

Now Stan made a false claim as usual that I say I am always right. Hell, nobody is always right. Me I just happen to correct way more than most. Call it wisdom or situational awareness. Not long a ago a few weeks, Stan reincited the Lewis was better than McGahee BS.........I defended with stats as to why that was not the case. That thread disintingrated into "ME' being full of crap. Well, I say after Sunday's performance anyone who thinks tap dance Lewis running on an empty tank is better than McGahee is well footbal deificicient or has severe myopia. That is just one of way more than a hundred where I took a position opposite the herd.

Being right all the time is impossible being man enough to acknowledge whom is correct way more than anyone else is class.........so far Ghoolie stands nearly alone in exhibiting true class.

BTW, Stones assessment is correct.............and that is just the way it is......

GO BROWNS ............ it takes a great man to love the Browns and Steelers for fifty years and be able to compartmentalize year by year and player by player among the "bandwagon fans" who are de true fans .....DUH.............

WE NEED A RB BAD.............LEWIS IS DONE!
