View Full Version : Who wants to be an NBA forum mod?

Jeff asked me who a new one should be. So I figured why not actually let some sane OTC people have some input. Obviously the OTC crowd is a bit more, we'll say mature, and have an idea of what a rational discussion should consist of.

So who? Name names, many as you can think of. God knows the NBA forum needs at least 10 more.

Rose would be a good mod but I haven't seem him post around these joints lately.

I would do it but I've probably made too many troll posts regarding Lakers/Heat related threads so it probably counts me out. :oldlol:

I can't think of many posters who seem mature enough to handle the trolls in the nba forum.

Rose - objective poster and knows his stuff when it comes to b-ball.

bagelred - He's a Knicks homer but other than that he seems like a pretty level headed guy. I've never seen him hate on a specific player or team.

Jasi - another smart reasonable poster. Not sure how active he is though. that might be a problem.

I'm sure I'm missing a lot of you guys.

InspiredLebowski, ask Jeff to give mods banning powers, too.

The trolling in the NBA forum is pretty ridiculous, it is funny to see certain troll posts on there but it's pretty rampant. It's pretty sad I couldn't come up with more than probably 3-5 objective posters on there for the most part.

It's pretty sad I couldn't come up with more than probably 3-5 objective posters on there for the most part.This is specifically because Jeff's the only one that can ban people.

And he's cool with that. He suggested Euroleague mod the International Forum. Dead serious.

ShaqAttack, but I know he's apparently reluctant. Other than that, Rake2204 seems able to keep a level head, be objective and not really rise to trolling. I think qrich would be someone worth considering too.

Rake2204

would be my nominations since they are good levelheaded posters who I doubt would abuse their powers.

A mod doesn't have to know that much hoops in my opinion so I don't know why people keep nominating posters who are just smart. A mod just has to know what is bullshit and what should be posted and what should be deleted. You don't even know have to know the game of basketball to be able to do that job.

ShaqAttack

(might have forgot somebody..)

You think so? I take that as a compliment, those are great posters... maybe you can learn something from them, eventually might heal you from starting threads where your intentions are only to insult another posters for simply disagreeing with your delusional blinded Lebron hatred and immaturity (like lately me being your target).

more like you're that nerd that THINKS they're smarter than everyone else, but really you're not. don't feel too bad since theres lots of others like that here, its just you're one of the worst high horse posters that barely contribute, and pretend to judge from some perch. and there is definitely an aspect of extreme snob about you, and always has been. its about time Jeff starts picking some normal people as mods :sleeping

Creating good discussion is the point. Not just creating discussion. I can easily create discussion, insult someone i know will respond ad naseum, or post LEBRON SUCKS! or LEBRON IS THE MOST CLUTCH PLAYER EVER. Just creating discussion isn't the point. You want someone as a mod who seems to respect other posts. Some of these "good posters" get a lot of responses because they generally respond in a way that creates a lot of angry responses.

Clipperfan86 is not a bad poster when he's sane, but when he's in insane clipper homer mood and posting 27 "how dare someone try to hurt the greatest player ever blake griffin", that's not good psoting.

my 2 cents...

thing is nobody has to reply to what they don't want to reply to. thats what gets me about people who get all mad at people who post a lot of threads here, none of them have to read them. and a lot of them think if they don't like it nobody else will enjoy it or be entertained by it, when thats not true. look at how much crap slayerenraged got a week ago, and now people are slowly but surely responding to his threads for real....

and honestly 95% of ISH is scared to post threads for whatever reasons. and most first time posters are posting worse topics than any of the ones the regulars are from what i've seen. i swear people here just love to jump on people who post a lot of threads and its just so dumb when none of them are being forced to read them.

and if you look thru the post history of most of those on that list, they've all made very good threads every so often that garnered a lot of interest. while those that lurk and criticize from their perch are the least contributory, but seem to have the biggest ego's here. they remind me of constant complainers that get nothing done or never help the cause, just complain.

Agreed with this. CF86 is a solid poster when he's not on his agenda that everyone is out to get the Clippers and the Clippers can't buy a call or there should have been a foul there, etc.

I do. And I was next in the community voting to be added as a mod but Jeff never did.
Correct.

We've had this thread before.
Even I had a few votes.

But alas, Maniac... Our team got so irrelevant that it has rendered even us the fans irrelevant I'm afraid... :oldlol:

I just checked the NBA mods list and nobody has been added let alone ten, it seems like a practice in futility but Omni and Maniak got my vote.

You need a Clippers mod to balance the shit that goes down here.

Well shit, I'm flattered.

Anyhow, as much as I intensely dislike his posts, I think that maybe, MAYBE Pauk would be a decent choice just to both get rid of some of the anti-Lebron garbage that clutters up the forum and delete some of the more obnoxious Kobe stan threads.
