People who engage in a heated, drawn out debate; and then in the middle of it try to discredit the other person by reminding them that they're "arguing about it in a basketball forum."
Posters who do not have the IQ to see the immense value of Shane Battier on the basketball court. :grin:
People who start a thread and in the first post they say: "Discuss". how about you give your opinion, and then people can give their opinion. when people do racist posts.
-People who don't carefully read another person's post and then quickly respond with a question or comment that could have been answered by the original post. -Trolls, no matter how articulate or elegant they can write. -What's wrong with that? Name me ONE fan you've ever met who doesn't bring up their team's championship runs? That's subjective. Do you have some kind of PhD in humor which makes you the final judge as to what is funny?
I love all the posts in the thread that do exactly what a bunch of posters have mentioned bug them......(minus the jokers who have been doing it on purpose )
People who desperately seek the intention they don't get in real life on an Internet messageboard - generally by playing a 'character', trolling or trying to be a general douchenozzle. People who think that 'being on the Internet' means devolving into illiterate, incoherent, neanderthal asswipe. Iz don't has to spel gud or rite gud or nufin i on da internetz People that use words like 'asswipe' or 'douchenozzle'.
The only positive thing I see from this is when I'm reading the board on my BlackBerry, and zooming in cuts off the names but shows the entire posts....with the initials I don't have to scroll over to see who wrote it....although in the cases of the people who currently use their initials at the end....I can pretty much tell it's them from the post.
Also, "cool story bro." For a few months I just shook my head... now I'm ready to, as Kenyon Martin would say, "put my hands on you."
1. People who post a picture saying cool story bro 2. People who put cool story bro in big fonts 3. People who reply cool story bro to any thread.
