There are 4 pinned threads to this forum that stay atop all the other threads. Two of them need to go. Or at least unpinned so they can drop to the back pages where all other old threads end up. The two that aren't relevant anymore are: 'The New MVC Blog' hasn't been around in over a year. 'The Aces Hoopcast' hasn't had any podcasts in over 3 years. Both the MVC blog and the Aces Hoopcasts were pretty good when they existed, but just sit at the top of the forum doing nothing now. Why mention them in this thread? The person who did the Hoopcasts is the same guy who delivers personal attacks to ATP and Nostradamus without ever adding any informative dialogue. It's obvious from those old podcasts that he could contribute to this forum from a different perspective than most of us. But instead, he just makes snide remarks and is so smug about it because as he once pointed out, he has a whole thread of his pinned at the top. Well, after 3 plus years, maybe time to unpin it and stop getting away with talking to people with such a pompous attitude. Furthermore, the soundcloud links on Aces Hoopcast are no longer available. Aces Hoopcast is as dead as a thread can be. Elvis has left the building.

If you think all I contribute to this forum is pointing out that ATP is crazy (he is by the way); I suggest you dig a little deeper. This forum has been highly informative and entertaining in the past. Two people have dominated each thread for the past several months and quite frankly, neither have an opinion worth listening to - which makes this forum worse, not better. Take the Hoopcast off the pinned threads if you want; it has been awhile since I’ve been able to dedicate any time to it (not that I would have wanted to over the past several years) and it’s due to be taken down. That said, assuming you align yourself with someone as delusional and nonsensical as ATP is very telling about what you are looking for in a basketball forum. Govern yourself accordingly.

I can't even find the words to thank you for insisting that I am crazy. I'd hate to be sane if it means harvesting compliments like that. But I do want you to know that, not only am I insane, I am your worst nightmare on this board, starting now. You started a long time ago

Great discussions always get derailed on this entire site and it is OLD!! I guess ridiculous trolling, threats of being someone's worst nightmare, creating multiple parody accounts to back an opinion up, etc. are all good here. If that remains, this board will lose all members who actually engage in real dialogue.
Anyway, my rant is over. I for one really miss aces44's Aces Hoopcast.....I like hearing material from a former athlete and/or a basketball player who has been in the AAU and recruiting scene. I hope you bring it back, and please don't let the vocal minority on this board (posing as a lot of different screen names) impede you from sharing interesting Aces news and recruiting/playing insight.

I don’t think you are Nostradamus after all! Yes, I just figured it out. Simple reason. I ignored it from the very beginning. I predicted that you'd end up being nothing more than a privileged personal insult slinger. Nailed it.

Who has multiple accounts? I only have one. Just one. What members did we lose who "actually engage in real dialogue." I can't think of any. There could be some. The average age here is close to pushing up daisies. One day they engage in real dialogue and the next day they may become a memory. What is "real" dialogue? Yours? I do agree that aces44 should once again share his interesting insight. It would sure beat the privileged personal insults and trolling.

Both of them have more knowledge than you think you do. They never bad mouthed you. A quick read of your posting history shows your arrogance, always talking down. I know what kind of person I am, and know how those who know me have a lot of respect for me. You're simply a bully and this forum is your pulpit. I'll govern myself the way I always do, and you have no right to tell anyone else how they should act. Get over yourself.

We received a few requests/complaints tonight about this thread. Block it, delete it, ban certain users, etc. We aren't going to do any of that because frankly, I wouldn't even know where to start. Yes, it has gotten off the rails and there are personal attacks that really have no place here. I have no interest in being judge and assigning blame. Let's put the pillows down, and return the topic to tracking transfers.
I will address the concerns on the pinned posts. I need to get in here and spend a little time cleaning up some links, media references etc. i will try to get that done in the next few days. As far as the two mentioned:
1. The MVC Beat - They didn't post links to updates this year, however, if you follow the link to the last one, they have been updating the blog on a regular basis still. There continues to be a lot of good content there. If they aren't going to post updates here any longer, I could move it to the media/reference section and just have a link to the blog. Whoever it is knows their stuff.
2. Aces Hoopcasts - I haven't removed it because (A)-I have been hoping it would get resurrected, and (B)- I assumed the links would still work to past episodes. If it is dead, and Aces44 has no plans to resurrect it, I can remove it.
If anyone has any suggestions for links or how they would like to see it categorized, your suggestions are always appreciated.

First off, it's OK to disagree with somebody without questioning their sanity, which is rude, callous and mean. I also seriously doubt you are qualified to make those diagnoses.
Telling me to get off the forum -- it's not working. I intend to keep posting my pallid opinion here so long as the people who run it allow me. So stop trying to bully people. It's snowflaky and whiny and shows you aren't at all friendly.
While you are at it, some fairly decent comments are included in the baseball section here. I actually WATCH THESE GAMES, which I realize isn't as interesting as a 23-second Twitter video. UE has a cracker-jack baseball team. (Baseball is a real sport.)
If you want to discuss sports that are actually being played instead of positing that we need "a point guard and a big," you could try that. Stats links are included.
This ain't all that difficult.

I'll add walk-on internet psychiatrist to your brilliant resume (but I hope your malpractice insurance is up to date). Please use the block feature. Please use the block feature. Please use the block feature. I will certainly block you. The privilege of unlimited personal attacks that you have been granted is vomit-worthy. Bye bye, but before I go, please use the block feature. I don't want you to read anything I write. Seriously.
