WTH are you talking about. that makes no sense. Always to the defense of Yale. It is baffling. But that quote has nothing to do about my posting history. I guess you are trying ti say that we give in. Idk.
You quite literally said he could be there to do stuff to help the police. Also what you just described is bad. Why should powerful organizations be able to have a direct line to police to be able to formulate a PR message before damaging news breaks? Come on now
can anyone tell me how to make this discussion disappear on my screen. A bunch of grown men who have no interest in talking about football on a football site.
You always get down in the dirt with Yale. You know exactly wth im talking about. Im defending no one. Im presenting that many of these conversations would die naturally, but you won’t let them for whatever reason.
He’s literally arguing with 6-7 other posters. But I won’t let it die. Gotcha
Don't know how to make it disappear, but you can choose to not click on it.
wish i could. I am OCD and have to clear all of the new message indicators when i see them.
You literally argue with him about every issue. But you aren’t the problem. Gotcha.
This is laughable and false. You must’ve missed a few posts. I have agreed with him before. not many times but there’s been a few. I have missed the ones where you’ve called him out for his bs or other posters that debate back and forth with him too. But I’m not on here everyday. I’m sure there’s some.
I wouldn't say down in the dirt. Sometimes it's hard to tell when Yale is trolling or being sincere. Either way, the dude has a track record of intentionally offending people and taking an argumentative point of view just because. People are going to react. This is a public forum and that's what we do. We read and write. Maybe instead of warning the people who provide honest and sincere feedback, maybe you should focus a little more attention on posters who consistently stir up drama. I mean, on this thread we literally have 2 active lawyers saying nothing unethical happened, but Yale thinks we are all "s.tupid" and "morons" (his comments were removed, in case anyone missed his recent post).
If we have a regular who is known to "get down in the dirt" (implying someone who tends to stir up trouble), don't you as a Moderator think that might be an issue with the peace and free-flow of ideas and opinions on the forum?
Ok
everyone that isn’t a UGA football fan knows what happened is inappropriate. Y’all just want to act like the university can do no wrong. If this was coming out of Tuscaloosa, you all would be furious
I haven’t warned anyone for anything. As far as I can tell no one has broken any forum rules. You’re free to engage with whomever and however you choose. But if you complain about someone’s opinions that are different than yours, then you share in that and need to admit your own culpability. You are choosing to take offense and choosing to respond.
Why would a moderator need to get involved? If we did, someone would complain we stifle conversation and don’t allow differing or negative opinions. So which is it? You want us to let you guys go at it or do you want us to close the thread? Can’t have it both ways. And as long as it stays mostly respectful I don’t see what the issue is in me pointing out how the same 6-7 posters always tangle with Yale and/or Mike Griffith and wonder why they keep doing the same thing.
When you as a mod and an official representative of the DN forum tell others to stop getting in the dirt with certain members, it comes off as a warning, or at least counseling... and a defense of the one who instigated the dirt play. It is also a recognition that we have someone in the group who is known to stir things up. Pretty much every time one of these heated controversial topics comes up you tend to focus on the responders, not the instigators. I see no problem with a healthy debate so long as it doesn't descend into name calling...which one member tends to do.
Nobody is complaining about another person's opinions. All I see are people providing constructive feedback (except when Yale called everyone s.tupid morons). Just seems to me that you know that we have a poster who enjoys stirring up controversy. It shouldn't be a surprise when people react. Some of us actually enjoy the mental exercise of a spirited debate.
The instigators are the ones defending such obviously inappropriate behavior from a representative of the football program
