It was a wierd game....Marshall's a very good coach. I use to watch him at Winthrop (in Rock Hill, right down the road from Charlotte) and wonder why no big schools were going after him, as he always had great teams at such a dinky place. They were clearly keying on Stokes when he was down low and were able to match force with more force..... |

I can't make any promises in that regard. I do want to clarify one thing. I can post on any of the previous boards you refer to, under the name I've used for years, Polemicvol. I have not been banned from OM or Gridscape as Polemicvol. I left both boards voluntarily because there was a small cadre of posters who simply couldn't leave political discussions on the political board and targeted me for ad hominem attacks on football and hoops boards, because they despised my politics. Most posters on both those boards were my friends. I'm not anti-social. Like many posters, I am sometimes passionate about what I believe and I'm not afraid to state it and disagree with others. And I can be a class A smart ass if I wish. You also know something about being a smart ass. Remember, you got banned from Gridscape as Jolly Volly and they wouldn't let you back, until I vouched for you a few years ago, because I had an excellent relationship with the moderators. So I think your comment about my experiences on other boards might not be exactly accurate. And if somewhat accurate, that behavior and issues is shared by you. I have an excellent relationship with the moderators at OM also. Because I don't cause them trouble, I don't secretly complain about other posters or about what they post. I'm not a whiner crybaby and I'm not high maintenance. I think this can be a good board, but the traffic is a bit light. We'll see where it goes, but I do know I respect the opinions of those who post here, there are smart folks here who know what they are talking about. We'll see if I fit in or not. It's not all that important to me either way, there are dozens of Vol message boards and I've only been on two for a decade. I've got a long way to go to be tossed from all of them, as you seemed to insinuate. |

I'm not sure how you took pissed off and turned it into banned. Again, I'd prefer you simply go with whatever I actually say, if you're going to quote or cite what I say.... |

I wasn't quoting you, correctly or otherwise, about banning. I said I wanted to clarify some points. One was to be sure your "pissed off" comment wasn't incorrectly interpreted by any readers to mean I was banned and couldn't post on other boards where I had most recently previously participated. Another was to say that you have also pissed off people on other boards and had to leave them, in your case at least once involuntarily. I have also been banned from Gridscape back in the Fulmer wars era, multiple times. But once new more rational management took over that board, I had no further issues with management and was never banned again. I've had thousands of posts at both Gridscape and OM, so I must not be all that difficult for the average poster to tolerate. I did have issues with some very obsessive compulsive political posters who just couldn't let things go. So I let things go by leaving those boards. And I intend to never mix politics with Vol message boards in the future, it just doesn't work. But I'm sure eventually, I'll tire of this board and leave it as well. I had a good start, but this seems a bit of a speed bump. I'll not fight with moderators on a board, I think you will agree with that sentiment, as such a situation caused all of you to leave OM and create this board. As I said, we shall see. |

I've got a long way to go to be tossed from all of them, as you seemed to insinuate. These are your words....I insinuated nothing of the sort. Thus my statement above. I stated that you have a propensity for pissing people off. I used your posts where you clearly mistated what I've said and made personal references toward me as an example of how it happens. If you don't believe me, then I'm afraid reality is not your friend. I hope you post here as long as you want to post here. Edited by JollyVolly, Dec 15 2013, 05:53 PM.

Whatever. Your complaints about what I post just keep moving ahead of and beyond my explanations. Nothing I post seems to be sufficient. I certainly didn't expect to get this kind of treatment on this board from you, Jolly. I didn't expect such a disparaging welcome. Looks like this isn't the place for me. |

And my treatment has been to not allow you to misquote me AND get annoyed when you made things disparagingly personal. I'm not sure how I live with myself. I mean...after all these years I would think you'd know by now....I'm nice to people until they're not nice to me....and then I'm not nice any more. Nobody here (who hasn't been here just to stir up trouble - we've had a few of those and I've made fun of them until they ran off) has ever had a problem with me. I hope you'll hang around...but that's up to you. I'm certainly not the face of TVO...just a small part. There are plenty of other posters with whom you can interact.

You are quite a strange bird. You took umbrage to my disagreeing with your coaching knowledge on the 1-3-1 defense. I tried to be just as nice as possible, but held firmly to what I know to be correct, which I posted. I made a joke that you teach your 6th graders better than Vol players on some basic fundamentals. Somehow you twist that into an insult. While a bit bewildered at your problem, I apologized for something that was not an insult at all and not meant as such. Then you started accusing me of misquoting you, when I clearly wasn't quoting you, this board has a quote function which I would have used if I wanted to quote you. No, I just addressed the negative connotations of your personal attack regarding my past posting experience on Vol boards. Here is the deal. You stepped over a line by attacking me personally, by saying I cause all my problems by "pissing off" people on boards and said that's why I had to leave those boards. Which is amazing, considering you had to leave those same boards for pissing off people. You are no better or worse than I. The difference is I admit when I'm wrong, I'll apologize to try to keep the peace, and in this exchange did both. You however maintain that it's my fault that you became an asshole in this thread. I can't do anything with someone who is acting as you are. I appreciate the welcome I got here from Tux, Rev, Alonzo, and others. But I'm not silly enough to participate on a board where one of the principals has a bug up their ass about me. Edited by Sapientvol, Dec 16 2013, 12:57 PM.

If you're not happy, then go post somewhere else. I really don't care what you do. Your joke wasn't a joke. It was a lame assed way to try to make your points again...even though YOU said we were done and would agree to disagree. Then you announce even more bull about how I ran my defense, despite the fact that I never said what you accused me of saying....with the amazing observation that Chris Lofton would tear it up. You ARE a basketball genius aren't you. I never said you had to leave any board....I said you had a propensity to piss people off....which you have proven again and again. Since you can't read and comprehend what I say...and then you report what you think I said....this is never going to work. I'm not going to allow you to misrepresent what I say without calling bull and you're too big of a baby to deal with that. I'm not sure who Alonzo is.....do we have a Hispanic poster and I'm missed him? Edited by JollyVolly, Dec 16 2013, 05:00 PM.

Yeah, no. Why I (we) left OM has absolutely no similarity with this at all you momo. You are as overly dramatic as a 15 year old girl. If you want to post, post. If you dont, dont...but damn no mangina either way. |
