Johnnyapplebot 1,532 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Too many people either they are trolling or either they are wishing “I’ll will” on people they see as a threat is trash. Times change and this forum has changed. 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post fabrar 2,489 Posted December 29, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 29, 2020 What I hate are the crazy reactionary takes. Literally anytime a player has a bad quarter it's as if the world has ended and they need to be dropped or traded right away. It's stupid, frustrating and exhausting to read. IDK how some of these people have ever won a matchup in fantasy. 9 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tazdingo 363 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 (edited) I'd also say there are a lot more people who are set in their ways of "drafting player X and refuse to have their opinions changed". My advice would be just to tune them out if they continue being hard-headed and only really engage with those who seem like they are trying to understand the different nuances of what makes a team/player good or bad, or willing to have their minds changed. You can spot the "Heheh Harden go brrrrrrrrrrrt from 3" guys a mile away from here. Edited December 29, 2020 by tazdingo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CFN 1,646 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Use the block feature. Still plenty of good posters here. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RedRaider27 531 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 This forum is great during the offseason. All the bozos are off playing baseball or football and it’s mostly knowledgeable fantasy players discussing player outlooks. You actually can have real discussions about players IRL, their fantasy outlook, team outlook, etc. But during the season all that goes out the window mostly and all we have are guys that overreact and are super toxic. It’s been that way for years. That’s mainly why I don’t post much here during the season. I lurk from time to time but as the season goes on I generally am on less and less. Unfortunately, there’s just too many trolls and dummies spamming the forum. There’s still great posters but they just don’t come around as much either. If you really want to have a good basketball discussion and want to actually improve your knowledge, come here during the summer. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MikeXScott 144 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Sounds like whiny "experts" who can't take someone disagreeing with there expertise From experience, a few hasty drops have led me to the league winning piece , just by freeing up a roster spot Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gile Pile 1,206 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 People do not change, they are still people. Some things I like here: "I told you so" and "f@#$ you all" moments when player with preseason hype has a good game/week (see Mitch Rob,Wod, Boucher threads) and their owners feel good at the moment but nervous about return for an entire season) Lakers fans and their inability to accept any criticism of their team/players. Bold predictions thread, despite the fact that people engage in serious discussion about some of them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MalevolentMelon 6 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 But forreal though, drop Kelly Oubre for Timothy Luwau Cabarrot? 🤣 Jokes aside I find that there are still measured takes here which are worth sifting through the "drop city" and "trash" posts for - thankful to those of you who make an effort!

maxim730 617 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 (edited) fyi, check out reddit/fantasybball lot of great analysis there.

Pirate 904 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 (edited) Lost its way prob a few years back. More so with the annoyance factors one which is the constant “I drafted him (obv shoulda gone earlier) in 8th round” not to inform on value but because they think anyone cares. Equivalent to people posting there whereabouts during the day on Facebook. Edited December 29, 2020 by Pirate 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brosephd 1,308 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 i like the simplicity of being able to go into certain player threads and get info specifically tailored to that player. when you hit on a RW hypetrain, there's no stopping in that thread lol.

RedDogNamedClippers 2,317 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I’ve almost moved on to the Reddit page. More insightful, less clutter. As I’ve mentioned in other threads, mods should lock threads during games. I see a “Hot Thread” I’m thinking “okay maybe the player got hurt, or maybe player may have been traded or something”. Nope it’s 2 pages of: This player is trash, I can’t believe I drafted him round 3, I could of had Lugentz Dort instead of Anthony Davis if this is what I’m going to get. The coach sucks, anybody wanna trade KAT for Bazley? 2 pages of that crap. Nothing insightful. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
My Dinner With Andre 5,752 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Also, I think the availability of information, data, and analysis has improved. That is to say, you don’t need to come to these forums for the in-depth takes and analysis that you did 10 years ago: It’s everywhere. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
perkinsfor3 433 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Reddit is a good source. The hot takes and ignorant 'drop city' or 'bum a**' are posts you generally see often early in the season. Lot of casual managers who'll disappear throughout the season.
