I dont give 2 shits where you come from on the issue, but the infighting, bickering and all out assholery is going to stop.
That sums it up right there for you all. JH thinks this had to do with his opinions but it doesnt. It has to do with the fact I have received several PMs from long and short time posters who are sickened by this. They have made the forum what it is and dont want to see the place go in the toilet. All that JH was asked was to let up. He said he would, he lied.
If it takes me looking like a bad guy or jerk for cutting off dead weight then so be it. I will sacrifice my reputation for the good of the forum any day.

The one post I made was directed at the peoople who are name calling and telling others what they can and cannot post. Show me where I instigated any of the name calling and fighting that happened before I even showed up. I made a couple posts, none of which were personal insults at anyone and now I'm banned for infighting in the name of the good of the forum. Yeah right. It's because you can't control me and the weak minded people on this forum can't win a debate on ideas and words so they resort to "please ban him" rhetoric of a wimp who can't win his own fight. First they name call when they can't win, then they want it banned. Cowards.
I'll go. I have no choice, but you feeding the "in the name of the good poeple of this forum" is a crock of shit. This is in the name of cowards not being able to win an arguement so crying to authority to bail them out.
YOu're a wimp. I give you credit for standing here and giving me a day to say my goodbyes but you're full of shit and the wimps whining about this are not people filled with strong ideas. They're the 3 or 4 posters in the Bret the Jet thread who don't post any packer topics anyway.

My name was in that post. Did I call names? Did I tell you what to post? Well did I fucking do it or not?????????????????
NO, I said stop with all the bickering because it is bringing the place down.
For the record technically I can control what you do here. I check a box and hit Submit. Thats all it take to shut yuou off so why have I not done it already? Why hasnt Retail or Zool done it? Think about what you are saying for once. If you really cared about this place like ytou try to claim you would realize all this petty bickering is not in the best interest of the forum.

Funny how you dont have a choice yet you are still posting. Funny thing is those arguing with you have not contscted me AT ALL. The posters not involved in the arguments are the ones PMing and if you think they are cowards that is on you.
Wimp huh? Yup, real tough guy you are calling woman bitches on a Internet forum. Go on with yo bad self babyboy.
Whatever happens, happens but I am pissed that people go and complain and don't say a word to me about it and now I'm gone after the whole thread was a fricking mess before I even showed up.
And for the record, every packer forum is fighting about this shit. Go look around. This is the only one I contribute to, so obviously I"m not the sole personality bringing Packer nation down.

Your pissed??? What about all the people who like to discuss football and now dont even show up because every thread turns into a Favre Wars battle.
Why cant you just show respect????? Is your generation really that lost?? I think fighting is healthy and enjoy it but not everyone feels this way. Quit being so selfish.
Alright. I'm done. I'm hoping at some point you let me back (the day before the Viking game and community service if I can request action from the court) but it's out of my control right now and I"m about be say things I don't mean to people I don't hate.
I'm done. There is a beautiful day out there to be had.

There hasnt been any banning and if you just take the high road we can forget all this crap.
Harrell, you're not banned, you're here, but for the love of all that is good you're begging to be banned. I would not be at all upset if you get a good timeout. You say you're not inflammatory, but note that no one in the thread had said anything disrespectful to anyone when you made your post about "Favre lovers" attacking "Favre realists." Come on now. That defines incendiary.
All this fighting going on and people refuse to believe that it's costing contributing members of the forum, but let me ask you guys this? When was the last time any of you saw Patler? One of our most respectful and most knowledgeable posters and I haven't seen him since he was attacked by a poster over some insignificant point that I don't even recall.
Don't give me bullshit about thick skin. This has never been a forum that requires thick skin to post and I don't expect it should start to be that way now. We've always prided ourselves on the great discussions we have here, but all this BS is overshadowing the best parts of this forum.

Wow, I opened this thread to see why red was so worked up in the RR and I see all this.
JH, as a friend, listen to what I have to say. I have agreed with you on most things football from the day I got on rats. You are a good poster when it comes to opinions and ideas..BUT, you and cpk imo have gotten a little carried away in telling the "favre apologists" what you really think. I'm not saying you started it, or that it is only your fault, but you have crossed the line of discussion a few times. I agree with your opinions on it, but again, no need to let too much emotion into it.
Now I'm not privy to all the PM's mad gets and I wouldn't tell him how to run his forum...he put the sweat and effort into making it, not me. I wouldn't be in favor of banning anyone, ignoring, yes, but not banning. But again, his forum and I respect his rules. I do think that just as many people on the other side have been just as annoying as you and cpk have, even more so imo, and I also don't ahve a clue if mad cracked down on them at all, not my business...or yours.
I think if I were you I would ignore the favre threads and continue to post opinions on practice squad or OL or anything else...I value your opinion. You will never convince the other side on favre any more than they will convince you. Who cares, in life we disagree sometimes and move on. Anyway, take a breather, drink some cold water, go for a run, whatever, and come back and be the same guy I enjoyed posting with before all the BF BS. I hope this coming from someone who usually agrees with you and enjoys your posts can be of value. Hope to see you around, no emotion involved.

Another nice post; I'm getting soft.
BTW - how does one "go for a run"? Do you walk then run? I'm confused!

I had to call you out on a previous thread where I thought that you were just plain disrespectful and mean-spirited. You apologized and toned it down.
You have posted so much on this subject - what original, new thought do you have left to impart on us? Do you think that we are all so dense that we wouldnt automatically know by now what your opinion is on the subject? I could probably write posts for you at this point. In other words, GIVE IT UP AND MOVE ON. We all know what you thnk, what your opinion is, and what you would say on the matter.
Enough is enough - I'm sure you could contribute on this forum on some other topic in a meaningful manner.
