Default Re: Time for some bannings?

Actually, to save you time, just go ahead and ban me. If this needs to be a poll, then there's no point in me posting here.

I was eager to have some real discussions here with many of you, but the contrast in our ages and games we play is somehow causing drama instead of generating decent discussions.

Some of you were genuine to me in pms, and that much I appreciate, but right now there's so many more interesting things to discuss, and quite honestly I'm bored with reading about myself and speculation about who I am.

This will be my last post here, go ahead and ban me. God bless.

I'm a SSNL player, and really don't belong on this forum - so preemptive apologies for weighing in on something that is none of my business. I will say that I have gotten into the habit of searching on every login for Time4Pizza's latest posts. Dude is hilarious (it *has* to be intentional, right?), and I've ended up reading some much better strategy discussion than I get in SSNL as a result. Plus, it doesn't seem like his assertions are totally off base (like knowingly refusing a 53/47 edge cuz it's just too risky), right? I'm going back to lurking now...

while Time4pizza is really, really annoying, he hasnt really said anything too stupid or wrong. He can tone it down a bit but should be tolerated.


Swings on the other hand, has cluttered the forum, has posted horrible, incorrect advice, and has started useless arguments. If you wanna ban him, by all means go ahead and kick his ol' ass out.

I sorta draw the opposite conclusions. T4P is massively spamming and providing pretty much no content. That's a recipe for banning. If he geniunely wants to contribute, he can make a new account and try to do a better job.

I'm pretty sure that swings is a troll but I don't think he has quite crossed the line to the point that he deserves to be banned, although he's walking a very fine line. In particular though, posting "horrible, incorrect advice" is not against the rules. It's pretty clear that he is misrepresenting himself in some form, but again, it's not against the rules.

WTF, Maybe if its for your whole bankroll.

If I knowingly folded a 53/47 edge cuz it was too risky I
would want someone to kick me in the nuts for being a dumb.ass

Definitely. I was contrasting Time4Pizza's funny but reasonable posts to this gem from swings100:

LMAO

T4P has something that eats into fragile egos (of other posters) like nothing else. It's called sardonic wit. Why would you want to ban that?

They're both idiots. They both suck at poker, and both probably suck at life in general, ban them both, and drop kick them in the throat.

I voted ban both. T4P is pretty funny though. I don't care at all about trying to find the silver lining with swings; he seems to be fairly unpleasant.
