Re: TOS Discussion
Check the "Controversial" and "NFL fandom" threads.
Chi introduced the thought, it'd been nagging at me for a few days, a lot more today, so I broke it down and found some proof.
Or at least coincidences masquerading as proof.

Re: TOS Discussion
That place is like a dream come true for Percy right now. He can post unfettered without anyone left who knows what a lunatic he (they) is. He's gonna be the elder statesman of GoAzCats. I think I'm gonna take a long position on Bitcoins and gold, he might just be able to convince some newbies. I just wish there was an exchange on which I could buy pee futures.

Re: TOS Discussion
Wow NYCat! It's probably best to let GoAZCats die in peace. No need to rub salt in the wound. Jim did try to upgrade to vBulletin 5 after all. It's just the way he went about it was the problem. In a way I feel sorry for him. He must live an isolated, bitter, untrusting, and unhappy life. He feels the need to control everything, which is an illusion. It appears to me he lives a self-centered life. Yet I don't live in his shoes, I just know there is something wrong.
I pray that he learns a life lesson and that he has enough of an opening in his heart where he can start to feel gratitude for what he has, and a growing desire to help others. He must be living in a life of hell and misery right now. He needs to get out of self. He could definitely use some spirituality in his life.

Is it just my imagination or are they inflating numbers over there now with fake usernames? Maybe I've just been oblivious but since when are there over 2000 people on the board at 11 pm? Then there are usernames like JJohnson and RSmith that reek of fraud!

You are not imagining things. It's been going on since the old forums returned. I wonder if Jim gets hits for registering new members?

I would think that rivals must have noticed the drastic drop off, which could spell big trouble for the site's legitimacy. Rivals could decide to cut the cord, like when a patent company doesn't like the actions of a franchise branch.

Re: TOS Discussion
Doubtful. For one, who would take over? Secondly, there are many Rivals sites with little traffic on their free boards. And lastly the board isn't a Rivals board. I believe GoAZCats is the only non-Rivals free board on the network.beames wrote:I would think that rivals must have noticed the drastic drop off, which could spell big trouble for the site's legitimacy.

First post, just registered. Not exactly sure what went on over at "TOS" but man it's dead over there now. Saw the link for this place and got a message from JMark. Was PatrickJ over there but use this name on most of my forums I go on. Mostly lurk but post occasionally.

Re: TOS Discussion
Basically GoAZCats has 3 reliable members now, Percy #1, Percy #2, MrBug (surprises me). They also have Killervibe, although he is not reliable and I'm not sure he is serious. One is a member here. Maybe they can work up to 5 posters by tomorrow.

Bravo.
I suggest - as ghostwhitehorse implies - let's dance so we can remember the time when Cyberbullies tried to spew utter garbage all over the GOAZCAT community. Is it a coincidence he choose a song about drug abuse and arabic musical notes in the background? The world will never know. But it's a point that he choose that music knowing full well I'm jewish and proud of it during a serious discussion. The difference between jokers and real posters is that real posters know when things are serious. Hence, why so serious? is Joker's motto. These guys are jokers. And with jokers, and their victims like Elliot Rodgers, doing real damage in society, do we want GOAZCAT to turn into the next PUAHATE or muscle building forums? Think about it. Think about the legal issues for the admin might have to deal with. Families suing in civil courts, etc. Why? Because the forum has turned into complete bigoted, anti-religious, anti-intellectual, non-sense, back-patting, cyber bullying machine lead by people who in their own mind where legends? Why should the admin support that? What value is there in that?
To have a recruit, say Ivan Rabb, not come here because he's see's the cyber bullies intimidating every other Cat fan with a brain? If anything, that's a major negative. Particularly if he is religious in any sense - because that is a common theme running from this group. You are not stupid or dumb in any way to believe in God - and the fact that there is an increasing religious belief among the scientific community alienates a good deal of University of Arizona alum like myself. As someone who works in technology and is also religious - this has become an increasing terrible stereotype that they try to portray. It's not true.
But that is what this crew does. Is it no wonder most of their "supermods" choose Avatars from the movie "Revenge of the Nerds?" Really? 1988 calls and says Hello. In 1997, when I first stepped on campus, Revenge of the Nerds was lame. That's 10 years and no one cared. 15 years later and these guys still think it's funny? Why?
1) Because it's biotry
2) because we accept it as true
Is not Revenge of the Nerds not stereotyping people into "Nerds and Jocks?" That it's a stereotype against the University of Arizona itself is not an excuse. This is much like saying that the Washington Redskin acceptance of a racial stereotype is ok because people take pride in it.
Standing up to bigotry is not bigotry. So for that, I applaud this board's admin. Enough was enough.

Wow! That is a totally insane post. It actually makes me think 4Life is not only Percy, but Jim Storey even more. He is taking it too personally. But again he isn't really breaking any rules here. And he has a right to make a fool of himself on TOS. He will probably drive even the ones who are left away from there.

To have a recruit, say Ivan Rabb, not come here because he's see's the cyber bullies intimidating every other Cat fan with a brain? If anything, that's a major negative. Do we not hold ourselves as UofA members to a higher standard?
This group has been particularly nasty to religious people, calling them all forms of names, from dumb to insane. So if anyone were to be reading 80,000+ posts of biotry and lack of intellectual thought - What is he to think? Why is no one speaking out? Why is the conversation so dumb? It may seem petty to JMJ, but how would we all feel if we lost some prized recruit over something such as a message board?
Is that so selfish to say? If it is, it does not hurt me to say it.
The point is, the internet has real consequences in the real world - but no amount of telling them them to stfu and sit down helps. That is a common theme running from this group of Jokers. This isn't 2008. Everyone is online. Look at dumb posts like "do you have an app for that?" What time or universe are these guys living in? What do you say to try to talk to people who won't listen to 2 words you say. You can't! They aren't listening. They aren't here to do that. They are here to get their jollies off making fun of everything. Everything is funny to them, nothing is off limits. Their biggest, most dangerous kick is to say "You are stupid or dumb or crazy"
Anyone who calls people dumb or crazy for believing in God is a bigot. As someone who works in technology and is also religious - this has become an increasing terrible stereotype that they try to portray. It's not true.
But that is what this crew does. Is it no wonder most of their "supermods" choose Avatars from the movie "Revenge of the Nerds?" Really? 1988 calls and says Hello.

1) Because it's biotry
2) because we accept it as true
Is not Revenge of the Nerds not stereotyping people into "Nerds and Jocks?" That it's a stereotype against the University of Arizona itself is not an excuse. The fact that as you read their posts and you see multiple posts have Ogre as their Avatar, it ends up looking like an old flip book cartoon of Ogre drinking himself to death. That's telling. Is that what we want young recruits to see coming to this University? Let alone the sports teams. This is much like saying that the Washington Redskin acceptance of a racial stereotype is ok because people take pride in it.
Standing up to bigotry is not bigotry. So for that, I applaud this board's admin. Enough was enough. Call it what it is - You can't argue with stupid.

Well guys, you have the whole thing - except here - enjoy it. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Some of us, including myself, are perfectly happy with how things have been resolved. The bullies are gone now. They have the whole interwebz to bully now. Maybe they will take that back to from where it should probably better go, the WOW forums. I'm sure that's will they will go after the they will get tired of bullying everyone the Forum for GOAZCATS Exiles ... er, the CO-OP.
Why that changed,

Because that's all these Jokers know how to do. That's what Jokers did at one time. Tricks of misdirection and guile. That's who they are. *Magic*
And who believes in magic?

Re: TOS Discussion
4Life keeps changing his post and becoming more bizarre by the minute. He's almost done everything but link this site. Obviously he's reading what we are posting. He must have something to do with GoAZCats, because there is no other reason to take what has happened so personally.
