Allow me. He is what I call, a problem. He is not a productive member of your society over there, far from it. He is what I would consider - a major contributor to the chaos. His speak is illegible at best. I would suggest closing all the threads like the Pro Tank thread where lunatics like Jack are left to act out their madness. It’s a very divisive thread and is not helping to usher in the unity we sensible ones long for

I think the Tank Thread is far too necessary - if I'm being honest. It's better to keep most of it in one thread rather than scattered all over the board and it's easy to keep track of. To me, it makes too much sense to have it the way it is.

Exactly. You'll get exactly where I am coming from, as you're a mod. It may leak out to other threads but having a singular dedicated thread keeps a lot of the BS together. We were really left with no other option.

True. It’s best to contain the likes of Jack Burton. I get it. Sort of like Fantasy Island, a place where the loonies can share their dreams without prejudice

If his post is some sort of attempt to make me out to be a hypocrite by starting the thread, it was a pretty weak attempt. All he had to do was read a few posts down where I clearly take a stance for pro-benning/pro-playoffs/whatever we classify that side as now. When you guys link, it doesn't go to any specific post so I'm just assuming until he clarifies further.
I saw the playoff pump. Most excellent. Good on you. The title of the thread? Not so much. Why not Tank or no tank instead of Pro-tank?
I understand it is a Part Two, but if a fair and accurate barometer of your patrons is what you seek, why not simply tank or go for it.
I see Pro tank and I fear a somewhat weighty dog-pile.

And it has worked. There are posters who stick to that thread exclusively and that was the exact goal - it was achieved. They get to express how they feel and it's not being forced upon others - only way to see it, is if you enter at your own will.

I think that's kind of nitpicking. All I did was make a part II. There is a playoff thread with "pro" in the title as well. It's kind of just how they have remained named.

I knew I was going to get bombarded when I signed up. I doubt we've even reached the peak here yet today. I don't even know if I can multiquote or not, I have no idea how to work this site yet.

I made my stance clear last night, of where I land on the pro-tank/pro-playoffs/benning right now.

It makes total sense for that forum.

What doesn't make sense is that so many fans of a playoff-trending team with a great young core want/need a Pro-tank thread.

But anyway... you are most welcome here, enjoy! :drink:

Most of them have basically said it's more about Benning being fired, rather than tanking for good picks. I think that may get confused now, as the Canucks have tanked enough to get their core. I also think wanting Benning fired if a perfectly fine stance, as well as maybe keeping him. I can see both sides right now.

And thank you - you guys have been more civil than I first anticipated.
