Message: [QUOTE="nelsonmuntz, post: 2754447, member: 833"] There is something defective about the basketball board the last couple of years. Thee are a lot of posters on this board that just attack other posters rather than have a discussion. It is bad enough when that happens on the Cesspool or with the visiting trolls on the Realignment Board, but this board is for UConn basketball, and it has the biggest problem of any board on the site. Most threads on this board degenerate into personal attacks, and most of those threads degenerate the same way, starting with an attack like inmo1's that comes out of nowhere and whose only purpose is to hijack the thread. inmo1 knew what he was doing when he made a post that starts with a personal attack and then mischaracterizes what I posted. My 3 options are 1) launch a counterattack, which is clearly what inmo1 wanted, 2) ignore it which will cause inmo1 to make a second, third and maybe even fourth trolling attempt, or 3) call him out on it, which I will go with this time. The basketball board is by far the worst board on the Boneyard because of this posting dynamic, and there are many posters that do this. Basketball is my favorite sport, and I love talking about it. I don't expect or even want others to agree with me, but can we stop the bs "gotcha" troll-thread-hijacking and just talk basketball? [/QUOTE]
