Please do not Hijack GMG Threads

What if I post a  thread about an actual hijacking?  Would every comment thereafter be kosher?  And what if UNT90 implies that RV was the actual hijacker and has some legit evidence to back up his claim?

This is an interesting theory. 

[GOMG2013]

When I come on GMG, I expect it to be like a cyber man-cave with the fellas, cyber sports bar, a barbershop type atmosphere to talk about sports.  Mainly UNT sports.  Instead, it's a hair salon with gossipy women.  And not hot women either.  The scorned women that b!tch about everything and can't find anything positive to say about a man.

There's very little football discussed on this forum.  And it was still lacking in 2013.  I already know the excuse, RV made us this way...No he didnt.  You are either a sports guy or you are not.  Some on here just like UNT and are not into sports like that.  Thats ok, but we need much more balance.

Some are flat out scared to offer a sports take because they are afraid of being wrong.  They would rather predict failure and be pleasantly surprised.  Some predict failure and have sports related reasons, and those are good.  Those that say UNT will fail because we have always failed, offer nothing to the convo.  You are the scorned woman that let one bad relationship ruin her.  The young, nice looking girl needs to get away from you before you ruin her.

We have some that don't want to call out "kids" and their performance, but just let a thread about a brush with the law come up on here...thread will be about 7 pages with all kinds of comments and analysis.

If you are going to bash, then you should also give credit when it is due.  You can't have 20 long negative posts and when it's time to give props, you have one post saying good job...GMG.

And I'm not talking about just one poster.  If there were more fans talking about sports, those bad posters would not get much attention.

BillySee did a good job on the recruiting forum.  I'm not sure if it was even worth it though.  Once again, a post about a recruit may have a few views and comments, vs a post about RV getting pages.  Having articles and posts about a recruit can be a good thing and sell the program, but what happens when a kid comes across it to find out what the fans say, and it's crickets.  We had a recent commit, and it barely makes a blip on here.  

Article about Zac Orr...yawn.  Article about a starting corner moving to WR...yawn

...let's talk about crime and RV...breaking news...

I thought thread jacks were a part of the GMG culture...

This thread is sorely lacking in gifs and nostradamus pictures.

Indeed.  Hoping this rule can be applied judiciously.

To contribute to a discussion about hijacking threads, go back and see what MIKE JACKSON wrote.  It's very subtle.  "Our patience is dying of liver cancer..."  Now if this was written to be ironic, I'm very impressed.  If he misspelled "patient", well, I'm hijacking this thread to discuss spelling and grammar.  And football.  And how fond I am of Harry.

hmm, does the above constitute a personal attack or trolling of another poster?

It certainly does appear that way, though it could also be construed as arguing the rules with the mods which could also subject that NM to board discipline...

[pastorgrant]

Harry is not suppressing free speech. Anyone who wants to talk about any topic can start a thread. But now we can talk about other things, too.

Thanks, Harry

Or, you can imply that he is about to hijack the thread by saying something like "here comes Nation92 with another Villarreal comment," then when he does comment, cry to the mods about highjacking.

Bunch of freaking crybabies.

He's not wrong about the cycle here. The same 4 people replying to every post is just as much of a beating. You can't water a plant every day and then be pissed it grows bigger.

This board belongs to the people - like Banner Man, those who won't stop disagreeing with Banner Man, his son Florida Man, The League of Extraordinary Coaches of Youth, and the Flantabulous Flantabulum of Properly Angry, Aggrieved Men in Their Dusk to Twilight Years. There is no country for old Quoner anymore. Time marches on indeed, Tracy Lawrence.
