Nope you're not seeing things.
He's pink.
I missed it, what did he do?
What in particular was the straw that broke Kori's back?
She's incredibly patient, he had to piss her off to get pinked.

[duncan228]

Search is still off, it probably won't be back until after tonight's game.
I can't find his last post to see what he did.
But I'm curious...

[remingtonbo2001]

I see floaters. They annoy the shit outta me.

[Mister Sinister]

Ha ha ha. Oh, wow.

[Brutalis]

Sometimes I wish Kori and LJ would just go big. "Sell out" so we can evolve, and delete these kind of people and about 150 others just like him. Get some ads, pay service games, rid the troll forum, ban profanity and go big with the forum. Instead of this place turning more into a local bar each season.

[duncan228]

Almost 11,000 members on ST.
Only 6 are pink.
He really had to cross a line.

I doubt he'll be back under that name, it looks like he logged off 3 minutes after his last post.

[duncan228]

LEONARD is going to be bummed. :lol

[remingtonbo2001]

What does pink mean?

[Mister Sinister]

LEONARD is going to be bummed. :lol
I know I won't. His shit failed more than Spiderman 3.

ST does not have 11k members. Only about 70% of them are not trolls or con-names as they are called. And out of that 70 not everyone stuck around.

[DazedAndConfused]

Can someone please explain to me what going pink is? I assume it means he's been banned?

[Brutalis]

pinked = banned/deleted/murdered in a back ally

[duncan228]

I know the majority are unused or trolls but I went by the stat on the index.

I figure there's a couple of hundred that post fairly regularly.

Even so, 6 out of a couple of hundred...he had to do something rash.

[remingtonbo2001]

And what about the Green and the Black usernames?

Is there some type of underground ranking order I am unaware of.

[duncan228]

I think you can still post when you're pink but you can't start threads.
And you may not be able to PM.

BTW, the link it leads you to is the timvp "I Have A Dream" thread.
Great reading if you haven't seen it.

[ancestron]

LOL @ Jeff

[duncan228]

Green hasn't has their title changed from "Believe."
Usually, though not always, when your title changes you go black.

[Brutalis]

black means your a regular. you dont have to be old school as some of us are, but just prove youre here for the long run by posting alot over some times and you get a spur and considered a reg

green means youre just not as regular, or post often.

without punctuation or details theres a short rap

I don't know specifically what he did but it can't be much worse than stuff I see here everyday.

[Brutalis]

is that what changes the color? i figured kori and lj only changed peoples titles once they became regs

[duncan228]

I agree, there's much worse stuff than him.
But Kori is so patient.
I didn't see it coming.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

this is the greatest message board of all time

I wouldn't change a thing about it

[duncan228]

That's what I've noticed in my time here.
But it's not always the case.
There are a couple with green names and a title change.

I don't think it has anything to do with post count or length of time you're here.

[duncan228]

Neither would I. :toast
I love it here.

[Mister Sinister]

Neither would I. :toast
I love it here.
The only board I love more than this one, is the one that my sister runs. :lol And that's because A) She's my sister and B) I help write her comic, so I'm actually important over there.

[duncan228]

You're important here too Shagia. :)

[Mister Sinister]

Aww. I've never gotten that impression, to be honest.

[Brutalis]

I'm really curious to see what happens with Spurstalk in the future.

Honestly in my short 3 years this place hasn't changed a lick except for flash at the top (spork and spam dancing around) and some sub forums changed around. Other than that it's the same stuff.

The occasional ex-Spursreport person comes by, claims why they hate the place, when they got banned, post, and never come back

I think mouse by accident created a major downfall to ST and that's the trolls and all the fake user names people post on. I doubt when he did it he realized it would spark a revolution of ignorant noobs and fans of other teams. To me that's the main problem amongst ST because of all the threads, argument it ignites, and then Spur fans here draw lines, and start hating on each other.

I think Kori would say however, if you don't like it fuck off. But in a long term sense this place has to change, evolve or something eventually because I've seen it happen to bigger forums before, these kind of places die in a span of 3 months tops and on two I have in mind, it all started over trolls and just people doing whatever the hell they want.

Not complaining, just making observations. SpursDynasty getting licked struck some issues in my mind.

[Brutalis]

Aww. I've never gotten that impression, to be honest.
You're as important as the blue in spider-mans outfit. Imagine, no blue. Hahaha.

You raise interesting points.

You're here a few months ahead of me.
I lurked over a year before I joined. (Not brave enough. :lol)
I don't see it the way you do.

For me, ST has grown and evolved.
The trolls are part of it, I think most of them add a lot of fun.
The obnoxious ones I try to ignore.

I do see Spurs fans against Spurs fans more now than before, but that's predictable with so many passionate posters. People love the game, love the team, love their favorite player, and have the freedom to speak their minds.
I think that's a good thing.

I also love the fans of other teams here. (Not the trolls, but the fans that can talk basketball.) I think they bring a great dimension to the board that other boards don't have because people can't speak their mind there.

I see it as an ebb and flow.
There's a core group of regulars, then there's the fly-by-nights that come and go.
It's the regulars that keep me here.

I'm really quite happy here.
I wouldn't change a thing and I would contribute in any way Kori wanted/needed to help her keep ST just like it is.

Home. :)

You're right about some things there, ST has grown and evolved in some ways. Trolls being apart of the way of ST isn't so though. I mean obviously it is, but in the long run the immature non-sense will have to stop eventually if this place is to grow outside of the same number of people posting that was 3 years ago it appears. And if it has grown not by much. Unless there is no goal or outlook for the forum then, ...haha.. whatever. Then trolls will always be here and this place will always be like a high school.

As far as Spurs fans fighting with eachother I didn't mean like that. Any fans are passionate and will bicker each other. But here it has gotten out of hand with the Scola crap, the Manu vs Parker ordeals. It's just old, and seeing that with the trolls, no telling how many people that alone has turned away. Not that ST is a popularity contest of trying to promote itself. I know it's not, but will it always be like this?

I like it here too. I lurked for about 6 months or so before I posted. I posted at Spursreport often and it just seemed too commercial. And maybe that's exactly why I like ST because they are so the opposite. We may be little brother to SR but we are more friendly and easy going.

I suppose also I don't know ST true intent or future plan if there is one. I often wonder if this place is always going to be like a loud bar, or will it expand. Will it just sort of be a free for all forever or will mods take over at some point and control things? Will there be added servers or a makeover? I don't call it selling out. Don't sell the place to some firm, but if I owned ST and had the free time boy, I'd do some things to this place. Advertise, grow, update, remodel, some order.

Just speaking with a loose tongue and off the top of my head really. I have the feeling this is just not a priority thing to the head honchos, I think its taken as just a simple this and that, not much to it deal. Just a place to flame whatever, say whatever, relax, stay up to date. etc etc etc.

I couldn't stand spursreport.
I lurked there too, joined it and only posted 5 times. Maybe less.
Just "news," Duncan updates, never an "opinion."
I lost my taste for them fast.
It's the complete opposite from ST to me.
No freedom, things taken completely the other way as here.
I'd much rather have the lean be towards freedom than not.

Obviously no one knows what the future will bring, on ST or anywhere else.
I'm happy here now, I have been for years.
I'd miss it horribly if something were to happen to it.

Kori and LJ are doing something right, in my eyes anyway.
They've brought a core group of people together from all over the world and created a place to be yourself. Whatever self you want to be at that moment.

ST works for me.

[Brutalis]

You must be on those happy pills? What are they called again?

Just kidding. I'm happy too, just see things I wonder answers for.

[duncan228]

I'm not sure...

I generally try not to stress the little stuff though.
It's easier that way.

Well, I'll keep his Official predictions thread going so we can see if he ends up with more than 10% correct... :downspin:

venom is forever teh gay now.

[monosylab1k]

And my guess as to why SD was pinked is because he can't start threads when he's pinked. Maybe his comments weren't that bad, but his 8 new threads a day could have done it.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Can someone please explain to me what going pink is? I assume it means he's been banned?
It's the equivalent of a slap to the face by Kori.
It's the step right next to ban.

You can still post when your pink. Norcal was pinked and i think gtown is still pink.

It means either a)he's gay b) has aids or c) has never been close to a girl
