Protests in Warsaw.

steeleagle70 said:You've got two whole pages of "Clinton's" stuff on Offside. Seems like plenty to me, even though I mentioned earlier that like 90% of the action was happening over at the tavern.

And come on, you know as well as I do that you don't protest red cards or bans inside the specific thread—you take it to the main board. And let's be real, don't go expecting any "legal defense" to work here.

But hey, when it's time to pull out the receipts

We gotta stick together on this one. All of us.

I mean, they basically nuked half the PDF. Plus, there were at least that many fans involved.

Why didn't you quote the emojis too? Is that because it would ruin your little fantasy that this post is actually serious?

The thread opened at 1:54 PM. Ryan Vaughn7’s warning (which was also his first) telling everyone not to draw parallels to fans—even though the whole reason the thread exists is because you guys keep ignoring that—didn't come until 5:21 PM. Nothing happened before then; the conversation had already moved in its direction. For three hours, people were posting stuff that was perfectly on topic, and then they got banned. Brilliant work by the mods.

Credibility? We never had any credibility with people like you to begin with. And it wasn't our fault.

Once you realize that just because people were following what the OP intended (who also got banned) doesn't mean they weren't breaking the forum rules, you'll see how useless it is to use that as a defense.

The reality is this: the thread has a specific title describing a concrete event, but a group of people wanted to use it to keep rehashing a previous topic. Most of them were openly saying things like, "I don't care about Horvatinčić or the Warsaw game, that's all old news, I want to talk about fans and double standards..." which isn't even remotely the point of the thread.

Imagine if someone comes onto the Soccer forum and opens a thread called "Dinamo - Hajduk" (a game happening right now), but instead of wanting to talk soccer, they just want to rant about how all fans are addicts. Then 20 people jump in and start talking about addiction, claiming the OP intended for the thread to go that way, while others are trying to talk about the match play-by-play. The soccer mods would definitely flag those posts as trolling.

You can't seriously expect that you won't get a card when you say you don't even care about the Warsaw game during a thread about it. ☕

Also, take a look at who fight is quoting in the 4:45 PM post—hollowtrucker77

who, back at 3:16 PM, is guiding and warning everyone

Stop with the fairy tales.
