That could be anyone here.
Oh no. I must disagree. Many smart and well behaved peoples here, even when disagreeing.

If you can't handle an opinion, or are angry all the time, or are a loon, like making self glorifying, attention whoring threads, only then you are a contender. And while I historically really didn;t have anyone on the ignore, it has become a necessity. In the meantime I try not to get sucked into the negativity and do my best to be bearable to others.

I agree, I was just joking but refuse to use emoji so my sarcasm is easily misread.

Ah.

But this is what I mean. You take your time to explain so you're not misunderstood, that you don't mean to be harmful.

This place is pretty darn good. Misunderstandings get resolved and namecalling is in jest, or kept to a minimum. When someone comes in and introduces namecalling or negativity, they're often requested to tone things down by this community. That is not gang mentality (oh what a convenient dysphemism that reeks of self-proclaimed victimhood), that is self policing and upkeep of community standards.

That’s pretty much my opinion as well. Aggressive behaviour begets aggression so if you’re going to come into a thread and start insulting people and acting the fool people are going to react in kind. Treat people how you want to be treated and if you’re a cunt, well, I think you should realize what’s going to happen.

I say we try to replicate the smashing success of the TQN / Psychotropic Wanderlust fight extravaganza and get KnockoutThoughts @KnockoutThoughts involved on this thread...

It's at that point I'd try pm's.
Most of our issues are solved between that and the ignore button.
Life's too short imo
This is so far one of the best posts I've read in this thread
Pm and ignore really do solve a lot of problems people have on here

wish you were 100% correct

but there is a little more of the UG here every day IMO...Drama trolling is at a high

I think it partially has to do with no fights scheduled last weekend....the natives get restless and some turn into bitches

OP does tend to make it personal...but he is not the only one doing that here.
I think it was Wild @Wild who mentioned something like this the last time we had a lul and I got stupid and got pinked
It seems when ever there is a lul in mma, drama doubles or triples around here

You got these clowns rolling out their own red carpet coming in with big self-welcoming threads, foaming at the mouth for attention. These highly unstable characters, thirsty for internet fame, get their heart broken and they break down. Yup, another bipolar mental case getting personal with everyone.

You reap what you sow yes, so if you're new, don't come here big and loud and rude and expect a welcome. People made this place their home, and when you have a new person showing up, you don't expect a barrage of insults and self-idolization.

Bullshitting back and forth comes later, I'm sure, but you don't do that off the bat. You don't do that at a new place of work, or any other social situation, people will think you're an ass (not you) and rightfully so. But some good points made. I'm done with the subject.
Exactly
You have to have a relationship with somebody before you go making jokes or being a prick to somebody so that they know you are only playing around

Thanks a lot to a few people for turning my thread into a shit fest

This was about the shit quality of the PPV's, not sure how anyone who is a true fan can dispute, not even sure why people are talking about other revenue's avenues for WME when this thread was made to show how WME puts together shit PPV's at a even higher rip off price

SMH
The reason financials was brought in is because it goes hand in hand with the point of this thread
Wme no longer needs to put together amazing cards that cost them a fortune
They have found that it is a better business decision to have shitty cards that cost them way less
Basically it all comes down to it being more profitable to do business in this manner even with the drop in ppv buys

It's shit, but it is what it is

WME is a feckless shitty group of people for MMA, lol at any person that tries to act like these shitty ppv's are actually good.
We agree mostly on this point
They fucking suck if you are only looking at it from the perspective of an mma fan

Why am i pink now? I havent even posted today
I'm still trying to figure out why you got pinked
Maybe because somebody told a mod that you insult people?
But that can't be it, when I told them somebody was insulting me I was told that they can't follow everyone and to put them on ignore and the person wasn't pinked for it

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
