Guest Gritz Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 For better or worse virtually anything flies here.You might as well get used to it.I tend to think of old, "let's bring this up again" threads as dog turds on the sidewalk......Just walk around them.

vel Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Yea the mods are awful. Make a thread about them and they delete it quick (I know from experience). But let something like this happen and they are nowhere to be found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this guy has brought back a bunch all at once just to be annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soon to be 51.It is against COC to try to embarrass other posters. That's what you're doing with bumping these posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peyton Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I don't think there is a COC anymore. I tried to look for it the other day, and when I clicked on it, I got a "This page cannot be found" message.So it is anything goes I guess.

Soon to be 51.It is against COC to try to embarrass other posters. That's what you're doing with bumping these posts.I have to defend Swift a little here. First of all, nobody has had more of their old posts bumped by other people than him, and it's rarely to say "hey look, swift was right about something".Second of all, if people are embarrassed about their opinions from 3 years ago, they should have been more measured in making them.I've spent a lot of time on this board saying that Chris Owens can't play. If the guy is in the Pro Bowl 3 years from now, I am going to laugh and say "well, I guess I missed on that one bad".It's not that serious.

It's about intent. If these old threads were ever brought up to make a valid football point or to add something to an actual football discussion I might agree with you....The fact of the matter is though that these are only brought up to embarrass the originator of the thread. That is their sole and only intent.I would much rather read the worst thread from a The Dirty Word II or this new Kung Pow guy than any rehashed thread from 3 or 4 years ago......but maybe that's just me.

That is their sole and only intent.So why not reclaim the thread and make it one of a relevant football discussion? Seems like bitching about the bump makes it an even more irrelevant thread. Payton does it all the time. he injects real football discussion into bs threads and then others input real football discussion and before you know it.....boom a real thread is born from the ashes of a bs one.

Peyton Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Here's is the thing:Half the threads on this board are started to express an opinion. Usually one that is not completely validated one way or the other. If they are particularly heated or controversial topics, they are going to get bumped one way or the other.I've had plenty of my posts and threads bumped months after the fact in an attempt to point out that I was wrong. I've never complained about it because I put myself out there.And you know what.....when I'm right, I got no problem pointing that out either. Especially after people tell me I am dumb for thinking Michael Jenkins is going to get cut, or whatever.It goes with the territory. If you don't like people pointing out when you are wrong about something, don't post your opinion. Like I said, it's not that serious. It should just be laughed off.
