Cool, Grundle. Now, pull my finger.

I've never called anyone a POS except Fatters, Griswold and Ektard! Does that count?

I thought the main reason people came here was for the taint licking stories - no?GrundleStiltzkin said:Just received this message from a guy (who shall remain anonymous) that I've interacted with over the years on DM and HH: "Just a quick personal note to say thanks for your perspectives on UW football over the years. I haven't always agreed with you, but I've appreciated your passion for the program. I had hoped this site would be a place to have fun discussing football, but even the few promising threads ultimately devolve into insults and name calling. While I certainly don't always agree with Kim, after hanging out here for a while, he has a point: some of the shtick gets old after a while. The older I get, the more I judge activities by whether I enjoy them, and I simply don't enjoy having my intelligence questioned by a bunch of internet idiots. Perhaps I will catch you in the future at another site somewhere between DM and HH. Anyway, carry on the good fight and feel free to drop an email if you want to discuss Dawgs."
The guy that sent me this note is NO fan of kim or any of the other jerks over at DM.
Look, I'm not going to advocate for people to be censored (like the d-bags that ruined DM), nor am I going to lecture anybody. I will only say that this website has the opportunity to become a REAL and UNFILTERED alternative to DM. The problem is that a few folks on here insist on turning threads into name-calling and 8th-grade-level cursing contests, or just an opportunity to 'zing' other people.
I'll be the first to say that at times I've been guilty of that BS as well.
I guess my only suggestion is that some folks should decide if they want this to become the website that ALL OF US have described at one time or another - a place of INTELLIGENT analysis where INTENSE criticism and UNSCRIPTED opinion is welcome - or do we want HH to be just a place of one-liners, biting insults, and contests to tear down others. I realize that it's often both, but I tend to agree with this guy that it tilts a little too much toward the latter.
Just a thought. Peace. Now fire away. -
I was a bit harsh with PGOS

This forum is what happens when 20+ trolls meet. I get really fucking irritated with some of the repetitive jokes here...it's not funny IMO. I yawn.. That said, I post on some various facebook boards and typically become one of the dominant-asshole-trolls myself on many of those boards, out of boredom. I probably get called an asshole at least once a week on at least one of those. Ive realized that I am an arrogant prick. There are a lot of narcissistic trolls here on this site, myself included....perhaps we are just naturally drawn to one another...sort of like how inmates are drawn to each others' criminal knowledge in a prison. I accept that some are going to possibly annoy me as much as I will probably and inevitably annoy them with my own style of posting...but ultimately I would appreciate this site more if it cut out the fat and were less repetitive and had more creativity. I get bored easily with the 23 daily repitions. Props to Derek Johnson for moderating this site...I wouldn't want that job.I suspect one day hell get very tired of doing it, especially with the repeated stuff.PurpleThrobber said:I will side with whoever can get Jen to flash her tits.

It just seemed like a natural fit for my annoyance. -
Well, here's the thing. For it to be unscripted and unfiltered, we must allow 99% of what transpires to remain without deleting or banning. People here can post about virtually anything they like. In 11 months I've deleted less than 10 posts.DerekJohnson said:I was a bit harsh with PGOS

Overall I love the jokes and barbs, but there are some things that I find juvenile, distasteful or worn out. I read some of these threads and we're hammering the same points over and over and it can get monotonous, especially if you're not getting the humor.
Recently I was concerned about the overall content of the boards. I asked a friend about it, who has many more years of message board experience than I do. He said that a football message board is always going to reflect how the season is going. And he's right. If we hadn't screwed the pooch against Stanford, and/or had beaten Oregon, do you think the tone on here would be bitter and negative? No it wouldn't. As Race Bannon said in his podcast, we would be changing our handles and doogin' it up right now.
You and I see the world very differently, and yet we both have major issues with Sark. And that's the whole point: This is an unfiltered board and it is reflecting the season and people's current thoughts.
If anybody wants to come post football topics, there are plenty people here who will discuss them. But our board isn't for everybody, especially those easily offended. -

When genuine husky news occurs, THIS is where posters turn to comment and read diverse opinion.
The rest of the time?... a lot of filler -
If anyone wants to go, just fucking go. This melodramatic passive-aggressive "soon-to-be-former" shit is fucking ridiculous loser bullshit. Sack up or fuck off. Nobody's holding a gun to your head.

I don't see why people give a shit about having their intelligence questioned on an internet message board. If you think you're right, then it shouldn't matter to you if 20 people disagree and post about how stupid you are. At least you're getting your point across and people are reading it. Isn't that the goal?
Besides, this is a "manly" message board. Name calling is just how people say "I disagree" around here. It's like when you were in middle school, and you'd go hang out with your buddies with no adults around...you'd call each other names like "retard" and "faggot"....and "retarded faggot", whenever somebody said something the others didn't like. But you still hang out with them, right? They're your friends. Grow a pair and accept your role within the group. There's nothing wrong with being the disagreeable one, so try and have some fun with it. -
This sounds like a "I want to give my opinion but don't want to tell people it is me" kind of post.TurdBuffer said:If anyone wants to go, just fucking go.

This bored is fine. No one is stopping others from opening an online forum where they can moderate it at somewhere between here and doogman. -

It's true that we've been saying the same thing for years and that we've been consistently right ever since Rick was fired. If it's unintelligent to keep repeating ourselves to the ignant (Hi PL_SS!) masses of Doogs, then Boobs is correct.
I believe the conversations that take place are intelligent because unlike Kim or Eklund or F3, we're not simply trying to appease the coaches and AD so we can maintain access. Unlike the Doogs, we are blinded by unquestioning loyalty or simple ignorance. The intelligent conversations break down why Sark and Pool Boy suck. Why Emmert was and still is the worst enemy of UW and college football.
That's why this place still has intelligent yet crude conversations about UW football. -

Some of the posts are a little over the top, and I'm guilty as anyone sometimes, but this site has a good balance between the fball talk and frivolity right now.Fire_Marshall_Bill said:This bored in June. Jesus Christ.
The gifs, memes, and girls are great. You're not going to find that on the corporate sites. -

"LEAVE" is probably a good way to screen out the boring and thin skinned, and ensure you get only the most interesting, zany posters. Most trolls will take "leave" as a challenge and stay on purpose.ThomasFremont said:
