Beta Starting?

[Dave The Man]

When does it start?

[HoustonGM]

Dave, how many times have you asked this? WE don't know.

[Jeff Olsen]

And, Dave, if you do participate in beta: please report each bug you find once and only once. Better yet, keep your bug reports confined to a single thread.

[ohms_law]

No need to worry about that anymore.

[Red Sox Fan 734]

Was this permanent or just another week?

[ohms_law]

permanent this time. Between here and Football, and with what I brought up earlier... he's just become too much of a problem, unfortunately.

Note that this isn't an IP ban or anything. Dave can still visit, he just cannot post any linger.

I realize that Dave was participating in the "Create-a-player" dynasty and all, but enough is enough. Sorry about all of this.

[EVEN11323]

A late Christmas present for the board!:D

[dave de man]

i am not banned i am back

[ohms_law]

Avoiding a ban is cause to get you IP banned Dave. Please, don't go this route. I assure you that I will win.

[dave de man]

your just to white and nerdy

[dave de man]

no i will win i follow mgsports route

[ohms_law]

well, now I don't feel so bad at least.

[HoustonGM]

I bet he's been mgsports all along. His entire posting style is exactly the same as mgsports.

[ohms_law]

nah, the IP's don't match. Believe me, we've looked.

[ChrisJNelson]

You are sad, pathetic little man.

[ohms_law]

well, I take that back... maybe.
The latest "dave de man" is mgsports... he doesn't share "Dave the man" IP addresses at all though.

I don't know. I think that we just got "lucky" in that mgsports decided to start up just now with his usual BS, right when I got rid of Dave. I've never actually though that Dave was actually mgsports. Their both disruptive, but different enough that I've always felt that they were two different people. I don't think that Dave falls into the same class of disruptiveness as mgsports, really.

[Red Sox Fan 734]

So that Dave De Man is mgsports?

[FRENCHREDSOX]

So that Dave De Man is mgsports?

yep seems so but "Dave de Man " is NOT "Dave THE Man"

[nicktx1]

even though i only know dave the man, could dave the man and mgsports be the same person but using a different computer. this could explain about both of them being annoying asking for the same info all of the time and have different ip addresses.

[thunderfox933]

don't forget proxy's. They all have different ips which could mean mgsports is dave the man

[RickD]

Sad that it has come to this and that it is becoming such an issue. If only he would just not post.....

[nicktx1]

Sad that it has come to this and that it is becoming such an issue. If only he would just not post.....

Yeah, like that was ever going to happen.:)

[ohms_law]

Sad that it has come to this and that it is becoming such an issue. If only he would just not post.....

I agree. I tend to agonize over situations like this, because it's not really clear cut. Should someone be kept from speaking here just because some of us are annoyed by their speech? As an American, I tend to fall on the "absolutely not" side of that argument. But, there comes a time when the disruptiveness just get's to be too much...
*shrug*

Anyway, it's done now. I don't foresee Boomboom overriding my decision or anything.
;)

[RickD]

ohms_law I totally respect your decision. Though I believe in freedom of speech there is a point where you have to say enough is enough.

[Jeff Olsen]

You are sad, pathetic little man.Shouldn't that be "you are a sad, strange little man"? :D

[ChrisJNelson]

**** it, I knew it didn't sound right. Should have checked first.

[Dave is da man]

no i will win i follow mgsports route

i said i am taking his route and so far i am winning

[FRENCHREDSOX]

i said i am taking his route and so far i am winning

Victory is being a PAIN ?

Sad sad life you have......................

[HoustonGM]

Dave the Man seems to be UNBANNED now, so it's kind of funny that you're still making fake new names if you're truly Dave the Man...

[disposablehero]

Dave the Man seems to be UNBANNED now...
:eek:

someone overruled ohms_law? this is a travesty!

Dave must have some inside connections. maybe he's really clay's alter ego :D

[Clay Dreslough]

Dave The Man should be banned just for having underlined text in his sig THAT ISN'T A LINK!

[thunderfox933]

Now he is unbanned after creating all of those names( if that is him)? i am confused

[HoustonGM]

Dave The Man should be banned just for having underlined text in his sig THAT ISN'T A LINK!
LOL. You've said that exact same thing before, I remember.


Now he is unbanned after creating all of those names( if that is him)? i am confused
I think it's NOT him making all the new nicknames, but rather mgsports.

[boomboom]

Yes, I unbanned Dave the Man. But if he continues, He will be banned for a week again. (Ohms, I think that is what we should do...just do a week at a time)

Dave da man, or any variation is mgsports or another troll. Dave the Man doesn't mean to be disruptive, he just is. mgsports means to be disruptive.

[boomboom]

Dave The Man should be banned just for having underlined text in his sig THAT ISN'T A LINK!

Clay you still try to click on that fake link of his...lol :D

[HoustonGM]

Nah, he's unbanned;)

[Jeff Olsen]

Yes, I unbanned Dave the Man. But if he continues, He will be banned for a week again. (Ohms, I think that is what we should do...just do a week at a time)I suggest that, instead of displaying "banned" under his name, have him listed as "suspended" when you feel the need to give him a break.

[boomboom]

oh, we don't have any choice with that...if you temp ban them, it would say banned.

I think that suspended would be better name for it.

[RickD]

Wow!!! :eek:

I have got to say I am shocked Dave is allowed back....I was enjoying reading the forum again without the insanity....

I just hope he doesn't act like he is victorious now that he is unbanned. It may make things worse!

[rockiesfan4ever]

Instead of banning eveyone of his names can't you just ban the IP number that he posts from

[FRENCHREDSOX]

When is Beta starting ?


lol - just thought I do a "Davide L'Homme"

[thunderfox933]

Instead of banning eveyone of his names can't you just ban the IP number that he posts from

There are proxys that cover your ip and use fake ips

[ohms_law]

Yes, I unbanned Dave the Man. But if he continues, He will be banned for a week again. (Ohms, I think that is what we should do...just do a week at a time)

Dave da man, or any variation is mgsports or another troll. Dave the Man doesn't mean to be disruptive, he just is. mgsports means to be disruptive.

Yea, I'm just tired of doing it is all...
*shrug*
It's no problem, really. When he does come back, it'll only take a week or so before he's gone for another week.

[rockiesfan4ever]

Just ban him for life

[Dave The Man]

I see That everyone Hates me at the Moment. So I think I might go in to hiding and all I probably do is Reply to a Thread Here and There!


Reading the Thread really opened my eyes to what people think of me on this Board. What they think of me I can't say on this board!

[Dave The Man]

I am Sorry!

[Dave The Man]

u joined my league

Is it Free?

[Dave The Man]

yes here is the site http://z11.invisionfree.com/sboards/index.php?act=idx

How Does it Work?

[Dave The Man]

just join and chose team like registar ur self

Did That - But How Do I get A Team?

[RickD]

Dave I don't think people hate you just maybe you should cut back on the repeat posts on the same topic.

[Dave The Man]

Dave I don't think people hate you just maybe you should cut back on the repeat posts on the same topic.

So You are Saying me Posting about the Same Thing is Driving everyone Nuts.

I will Try not to do it know that I know why people are getting annoyed!

[RickD]

Yes pretty much that was what I was saying. If you could just post a bug or question once and leave it alone no one would get annoyed.

Thanks for listening.

[FRENCHREDSOX]

So You are Saying me Posting about the Same Thing is Driving everyone Nuts.


Repeat posting like "Bumping" is ANNOYING & also an actual DETRIMENT to the poster

.Also IT CONFUSES Clay/SM team as they CANNOT identify the problem or makes them think it another problem entirely BECAUSE of the multi-posts


I will Try not to do it know that I know why people are getting annoyed!


Keep your WORD Dave & remember that WE ALL WANT THE GAME TO RUN WITH NO BUGS but posting repeated DOES NOT HELP anyone

[boomboom]

Hey ohms, I didn't mean to insult you by overriding your decision to ban him forever. Letting you know that Publicly. I am sorry if I did.

Dave the man, keep your word please. You are a valuable customer to Sports Mogul (you care about this game, as we can clearly tell by the mood of most of your posts) but you are on the verge of being a troll.

[ohms_law]

Nah, not at all. If he takes the advice to heart this time, I'll be extremely happy. He's welcome to stay and talk with us as long as it doesn't become a problem.
