Save Spurstalk

[romain.star]

People will agree that this place has really turned into a dump lately.

What if NO ONE replies to any of the posts/threads coming from Apalisoc, Dabom, Malik Hairston, FKLA and Clipper Nation? Just let them (or him) post in a vacuum and see how long they/he can handle it.

In other words: don't feed the troll(s) and save Spurstalk

[wildchild]

What's about TGY, hater, Chump hate/trolling threads? Your point seems so biased if you don't mention these guys.

There is a tendency to see oneself as less annoyed than other people...

[KL2]

They use facts and advanced statistics to prove their arguments, old Spurs fans can't handle change, sometimes the truth hurts.

When you post facts and advanced stats, you prove an argument. When you post the same thing 10 times per day, you're just trolling.

Most sensible posters don't post in their threads already, or do it very rarely.

When an on ball screen is employed it is the responsibility of the dribbler to space properly and use the correct angle to set up his man to be effectively screened. To actually observe this requires EYES. If they would like to draw the geometry of how this is done effectively, fine. BUT...

To use #s the way some posters do to prove faults in tactics, and or strategy, or physical ability , is just stupid. Use the statistics correctly. Those of us who can WATCH a basketball game and realize Tim Duncan did not necessarily have a great game last night can have a legitimate discussion about what was going on defensively. So do you think Duncan is just too slow, he was matched up improperly, or the kid he was covering most of the night is really good? A little of all of it? Did Duncan require more off ball help? It is my opinion that Duncan had a very tough night on D. I don't even know his opposition's numbers.

When one takes #s, and misuses them, it becomes disingenuous OPINION. This board's discussion is largely based on opinion. And that's an opinion. The Spurs won last night, fact. The Spurs outscored the opponent, fact. How did it come to this, opinion. Use the #s properly please. Not to bash a player(s) one had an obvious bias against. (Or vice versa, it's really tiresome. Imo.)

Well we won because of the clutch shots of TP and Ferrari tbh.

I mean I'm fine with occasional trolling...forums aren't fun when everyone is just 100% serious all the time. But people here take it way the fuck overboard. Have one thread for trolling Parker and bump it every time he plays like shit - I'm fine with that. But having the entire front page constantly filled with 10+ topics about the same things is just annoying and ridiculous. I haven't even been coming here as much recently because there's almost no point. You go to SpursTalk and it's just like "Oh here's one interesting article, and then 10 topics about how Kawhi could be the next MJ if Parker wasn't holding him back. Cool."

Like I know Parker has been shit this year, but fuck...give it a rest. And then you have tons of people here who either a) don't realize these people are trolling, or b) don't care and want to try and troll them back. It's a never-ending cycle.

Trolling is great when it's smart and funny. That's why not everyone should do it. Everybody wants to be a fucking message board all-star now. Fucking scrubs need to know their role, if you ask me.

FWIW, I am Spurs fan since DRob and although I appreciate Parker, he is far from being my favorite Spur. I actually don't care if people hate him (although you must be pretty retarded to hate someone you have never even seen in person). I'm just advising regular Spurstalkers not to feed these non-funny trolls.

No one hates tony tbh. He just sucks and we're stating the obvious then parkertards come in and try to say he isn't and then it turns into a heated argument.
I think some of them still think he is a top 5 pg at the moment. :lol

In what way are they using them? Everything they've posted about Parker is 100% fact, the stats do not lie.

You don't think I know what I'm watching? Don't tell me you think I created this account 3 years ago calling Leonard MVP, just pulling it out of my ass, I knew exactly what he could develop into. I know the responsibilities of each player, I know what they're supposed to do, when they're out of position both offensively or defensively, whether they're truly hurting the team or not. I see their full positive and negative impact, I go into depth to see just why, I don't just label them bad players lol.

I used this to realize how overrated Parker always was/is, and called his decline as a few others have, who is really watching the game?

Oh neat. A thread complaining that Spurstalk has gone downhill. It's been at least a month since the last one.

[Biernutz]

Save SpursTalk....Maybe we could get Jerry Lewis and have a telethon to save it because it wont survive...RIP!SpursTalkRIP

[wildchild]

Those guys do not start 10 threads per day on Kawhi or Parker.

Maybe you're wrong. They didn't start 10 threads every day, there are not 10 new threads on front page today or yesterday.

However, you basically say that TGY, hater, Chump can make a thread trolling Manu after a good game like yesterday, but Malik can't make a thread about Parker's defense or decline or whatever happens with him after a bad game...

Just for the record, I never troll a player.
You can't find a post where I used insults, called them names, Enrique/Evita, or said something about their personal/private life issues, I never said anything about Tony's divorce or Amy's scandal...I don't judge players by their off-court actions, I just talk about their games.

But those three guys -who you defend- are doing those annoyed things on Manu and Kawhi for years so if you don't mention them like part of the problem, if you don't talk about the both sides, I'm sorry to insist, but you try so hard to prove a bias point.




Chump And Hater pepper their trolling with decent takes though.

That's why I can't trust in any proposal to improve ST. If someone can think this ^...we're done.

I've never created a thread to belittle a player on the team that I'm rooting for. I would never create multiple threads to do so. Because I'm out of high school and I don't need to show off my leet troll skills on an internet forum.

Outside of Hater, who is denying that Parker is having a shitty season on ST? Now if wishing that your struggling starting PG will turn it around is being a Parkertard, then count me in.

[Rapper]

One of the best ways to save spurstalk is to let me start some discussible threads.

Kori has been banning me to start threads on spurstalk since 2 year ago where I predicted the spurs would win the title in 2014.

USA is not a country where people have their right to share their opinion in sports.

Take a look.at Skip Bayless he always.goes tough on players due to certain performances but people.in tge states never shut him up it is brcause.they think that USA is a place.where all people can say anything they want no matter what their skin color are.

Unfortunately, the spurstalk fourm is not.

I don't post much on this forum and read much less frequently mostly because of what it has devolved into. There is no need to make thread after thread insulting player after player, stating this fact proves this or that. If I was a moderator of this forum, I'd delete every new thread that comes up insulting one of our players because it's just a rehash of the same thing that has been said 1,000 times. Why do we need a thread that insults TP and refers to him as Enrique when we have 100 other threads doing the same damn thing? Grow up. Get a life. If you've got a new take on the Spurs go ahead and post a new thread but if its just a rehash, then stick it in the old thread and insult a particular player until your face is blue.

[DMC]

It was always this way. It's even been encouraged by site ownership to have creativity in your trolling. So it's not that you're a troll, but that you're an uninteresting troll. There's a difference, and it's sanctioned.
