  So, if Trolls are banished to the basement, are we allowed to go there and troll them?
  
  That is a big mind fuck!

  Who is getting the gong? No one is getting banned for trolling.

  When have I ever been a Cleveland troll? You mean because I had a differing opinion? You mean because me and a few others told everybody that the Celtics would give you everything you could handle? You mean because I said the Decision was a terrible idea (before the decision) and said it wasn't a good sign for Cavs fans (they initially sort of defended Lebron)? Or that I pointed out the irony that Cavs fans thought the goofy billboard Gilbert put up was a great idea, but anytime New York did something it was "desperate" and not going to work because Lebron was coming back to Cleveland Haha
  
  I think those are the only times I have ever really been involved with Cavs fans, and I had a pretty good track record of being correct. I guess the truth hurt.

  It is going to be fun. Believe it or not...the idea was suggested by a troll...haha

  
  Sort of. The separate forum was his idea.

  Guess I should have read more carefully Just assumed that was the logical conclusion after habitual line steppers have crossed that last line.

  Basically we are just trying to clean up the forum so that every thread doesn't turn into a huge bitch fest after trolls drop in. If Art Modell wants to start a thread about how much Cleveland sucks in the troll forum he is free to bash the hell out of them there. If ccrunner wants to start a thread about how shitty Notre Dame is he is free to do it in there.

  As long as he doesn't bring in AAF to spend 23 hours a day on the forums prowling for rule breakers and SHUTTING THEM DOWN IMMEDIATELY....this will be fine.

  Right.
  
  These are the things I believe people hated most about JJ's:
  1. The fear of being banned without warning for generally no reason
  2. The lack of reasoning from the mods and admins. i.e. What we say goes and if you don't like it GFY.
  3. The abrupt implementation of a yearly membership fee (after already collecting "lifetime" memberships from a large number of users, no less).
  
  Obviously things are more loose here. No one, other than spam, gets banned without warning. In the year this place has been around there have probably been less than 10 bans handed out to non-spam users. And none of them were permanent, most were just 1 week vacations. I'm also not a hardass admin that doesn't listen to the masses. I'm always open for change and trying out new ideas and encourage people to make suggestions and or question our reasoning.
  
  I can't talk much about the money thing, though. That's definitely coming soon.

  Ok you big tub of lard! First of all, I'm sorry my newborn baby is cuter than your inner thigh. Secondly, I have had such a better post- Idol career as proven here... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Idol_alumni_album_sales . Finally, rather than focusing my efforts on losing weight, my skinny buns have been tearing you up on the record charts.

  And I could be wrong with my list above, that was just what I hated about that place.
