Title: Should Ners be banned?
Post by: NersEllenson on November 20, 2014, 11:21:46 AM
Figured I'd give the board their chance to speak as I've ruffled a lot of feathers here.  I'll voluntarily go away if the majority of the board votes me off.  (And I think it will be a close vote.)

Have fun with it Scoop.

Hi, I'm an anonymous internet poster that is so cool that I'd like to create a poll about myself for other anonymous internet posters to participate in.

Is this really happening? Is he this dumb? Just when I thought the Internet hit rock bottom...

I voted "NO" because every one has a right to his or her opinion, but creating a poll about yourself is creepy.

Is there an option that just bans you from mentioning derrick and/or Dawson? Or perhaps puts a cap on how many posts you can do per day on the subject?

i voted yes, but not because it takes me 20 seconds to skim through the 5 page thread on the pg debate, but because you started a poll on yourself.  even better that you gave a prediction on a close outcome.  new poll...who strives for attention more, chicos or ners?

It was a sincere effort to give the board a chance to speak.  There's been a LOT of frustration with my viewpoints here and I've read many times I'm making the board unreadable - and that is not my intent.  I have no desire to "ruin" this board and if the majority feel I do - then I'll leave.  (And probably get more work done in the process.)

Agreed.

Ners has this incredible need for attention and validation.  I generally don't want people banned, but this desperate plea for attention swung me the other way.

Just to be clear, I don't think it's your viewpoint that creates frustration.

It's the constant attempts to share your viewpoint, and then the dismissal of any alternate viewpoints that creates friction.

You've used the term "adversaries" before. This doesn't have to be adversarial. It can be conversational.

Wow, you just don't get enough attention or what? 

+1.  I came in here thinking I'd see it was started by a newer poster and I was going to suggest letting the mods decide who gets banned and who doesn't and that they can just put him on ignore if they'd like (although people quoting him negates that).  The fact that Ners is the one who actually started this is...I think sad might be the best word to describe it.  But there are a lot of words that could describe it.  Pathetic might be the 2nd best.

Post by: Tums Festival on November 20, 2014, 11:56:07 AM
So your proposed solution to all the backlash you're receiving about your posts is to create a poll about whether or not you should be banned from Scoop? How about just stop posting about Derrick Wilson, or don't you have any control over your own posts?

The most self absorbed thing about this poll is not that Ners created a poll about himself, but the fact that he thinks he's potentially responsible for this board being unreadable.   MUScoop was unreadable long before your recent thread hijacking.

I voted yes.

The essence of this board is its free wheeling nature.  This is nurtured by the mods, who trust us  to be  self moderating.  They remind us of this from time to time.  

Ners has no ability to self moderate.  If this is a close vote, he will use it as vindication to go even further over the edge.

I often lurk but don't post too frequently. But I believe the few things I've said are balanced and so I'll add this: Ners is a total butt. Good riddance if he actually pays attention to the results of this retarded poll and leaves (not likely).

Post by: MUCam on November 20, 2014, 01:03:55 PM
I voted "no." While I feel it is improper to campaign for others to vote the same, I thought I would provide a top ten list for reasons why to vote no.

10. The thing about extremes is that they always exist. Strip away the extremes, and someone inside moves closer to the outside. No Ners means Big Daddy just became a slight bit crazier. I can't live in that world.

9. Without the lunacy of Ners, this board might just become the Dodds board. While I appreciate the Dodds board as a nice vacation spot from time to time, the Mu Scoop fray is much more enticing.

8. The BMA smackdown of Ners loses its luster if Ners isn't around to argue about how it wasn't a smack down.

7. Ners is a perfect reminder of why "logic" should be taught throughout a person's schooling and not just rendered an elective in high school or college.

6. Feeling like you might be a little crazy? Read one of Ners' posts and you'll instantaneously be reminded of what crazy really is; a true barometer for craziness.

5. Without Ners, we might forget who John Dawson is. Seriously.

4. Sticks and stones may break our bones, but words will never hurt us....unless they are written by Ners, the king of insults. A little trivia: In just his 4th post ever (as Ners, anyway), Ners wrote the following in a MU Scoop argument: "You come off pretty pompous and all-knowing, might want to re-evaluate your all-knowing attitude..." Whoa, baby. Genius from the beginning.

3. This poll is absolutely a reason to vote "no." Without Ners, gems such as this poll wouldn't be the property and province of MU Scoop. I, for one, am happy to be a member of a community that can boast that it has the most self-indulgent, ridiculous, popularity poll in the history of mankind.

2. Keep Austin weird; Keep Mu Scoop insane.

1. Ahh, F it. I am voting "yes."

PS. This list came out way less funny than it was originally envisioned in my mind. Honestly, it is pretty much comedic crap. Feel free to edit and revise as you all see fit.

If most of you actually posted polls and voted in polls at a high level like Ners, then you would understand.

Ners has been around high level polls for a long time and he knows what high level polls look like. He even coached about the use of polls in poll camps. Hell he may even have posted polls in high school.  So he has every right to post a poll about himself.

Ners should be banned. Not permenately. But given the two week vacation (also known as the Keefe politics special  ;D).  I changed my vote after reading a recent thread in which a mod warned Ners about going on and on about Derrick/Dawson. Ners responded by quoting the mod, saying he felt his comments were valid, and proceeded to go on and on about Derrick/Dawson. He has been warned by Mods several times about this issue and has ignored the warnings. That warrants a small vacation IMHO. That of course is up to the all powerful Mods, keepers of the legendary banhammer.

Ners brings good insight and opinions to the board. Its how he delivers them that I think most take issue with.

I have no problem with his opinions, and I can usually accept the way he expresses them.  The part that's getting most tiresome for me - expressed very well yesterday by FreeportWarrior - is his childish refusal to take his lumps and admit when he is wrong...or at the very least, just let it go.

Last year Buzz didn't get it.  This year Wojo doesn't get it.  But Ners once played basketball and now enjoys hot yoga, so he sees things our coaches don't.

It was a sincere effort to give the board a chance to speak.  There's been a LOT of frustration with my viewpoints here and I've read many times I'm making the board unreadable - and that is not my intent.  I have no desire to "ruin" this board and if the majority feel I do - then I'll leave.  (And probably get more work done in the process.)

Get over yourself. Just quit making E V E R Y thread about Derek vs. John.

If you can't do that, you should leave voluntarily.

I voted No. Ners is a key "character" in the MUScoop narrative. Without Ners, the story just won't be the same.

Who even thinks to create a poll about themselves, let alone post it. We need that special brand of loony. Plus Ners has to do more than shill soft serve frozen yogurt in the tundra, live in a hi rise, and practice bikram Yoga.


And day trade, don't forget the high risk day trading.

 But Ners once played basketball and now enjoys hot yoga, so he sees things our coaches don't.

For the hot yoga alone, Ners should stay.  Do you know how much tail is in hot yoga? (sorry if the language offends you, Chick).

Then I am reminded of the famous Einstein quote on insanity about "doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."  That is how I feel about any thread that Ners is actively participating in.

I change my vote.

Ners should be banned. Not permenately. But given the two week vacation (also known as the Keefe politics special  ;D).  I changed my vote after reading a recent thread in which a mod warned Ners about going on and on about Derrick/Dawson. Ners responded by quoting the mod, saying he felt his comments were valid, and proceeded to go on and on about Derrick/Dawson. He has been warned by Mods several times about this issue and has ignored the warnings. That warrants a small vacation IMHO. That of course is up to the all powerful Mods, keepers of the legendary banhammer.

Ners brings good insight and opinions to the board. Its how he delivers them that I think most take issue with.

If the poll is "yes" it shouldn't be a lifetime ban. Just until 1/1/2015.

Ners does love Marquette and the program. That counts for something.

Maybe play a game of 1 on 1, and loser gets banned?

OR the ban can just be in place until John Dawson plays over 25min. in 1 game.

OR maybe the ban is in place as long as Derrick has more points that Dawson (season totals).

But the choices shouldn't be in terms of weeks or months...they should be in terms of behavior when he returns.

Personally, I'd be happy having him back when he can refrain from turning nearly every thread into:  1. Derrick bashing, 2. Comments about the untapped greatness at the end of our bench, or 3. A Ners appreciation thread.  If we had to put that into a timeframe, I'd take the over.

Do people actually believe that if Ners didn't post on the Dawson/Derrick debate he'd suddenly become bearable?  It's his way of getting all the attention on him.  He knows that Derrick is the better player at this point, but he bought into him based on a performance against a no-name team so he can't back down now.  He has to remind us all that he once played basketball in high school and knows more than guys who get paid millions of dollars to make the same decisions for their profession are clueless when it comes to evaluating talent compared to Ners.  Again, the guy played freaking high school basketball!  Wojo certainly doesn't have those credentials!

If there were no John Dawson and no Derrick Wilson in this world he'd be reminding us he has a great basketball mind in any other way possible.  Heck, if everyone all of a sudden started crying for Dawson to get Derrick's minutes Ners would suddenly tell us why Derrick is the best player on Marquette and is the second coming of Lenny Wilkens.

I vote a resounding "no."  As frustrated as I am that discussions always seem to devolve into a "Derrick sucks/he's the best we have,"  I value Ners' opinion and devotion.  

I still can't recall ANYONE that offers "relentless unwarranted praise of Derrick."  If they are out there, they should be the ones banned, unless they are speaking about his character, which I don't recall Ners ever questioning.

And starting your own poll does seem a little needy.

All sorts of wrong here. No one goes out of their way to start threads talking about the "relentless, unwarranted praise of Derrick." If you'll notice though, Ners created 2 threads just in the last few days, this one and the "interesting quotes" thread. So, who is the one provoking? Who is the one constantly bringing stuff up?

Why in all hell with two games into the season are we making posts about Derrick Wilson who's averaging only 16 minutes/game?  While the PG play of last year was subpar, it has no bearing on this season and after watching both games I can definitively say that adding or subtracting Derrick's minutes wouldn't have changed the outcome in either game.

Come on Ners you're losing even those who have stood up for both you and your positions.

Complete rookie here/long time lurker so cast this off as you feel fit.  IMO..it's America and the internet so everyone is free to express their own opinion.  I voted 'no'.

However, if i could be so bold as to provide a personal allegory.... Not long ago the wife and I were at a party where we were not meshing at all with the other guests.  Political and religious opinions (probably aided by vodka) were causing differing points of view to turn into uncomfortable conversations.  We decided to leave via Irish goodbye but not wanting to waste a babysitter decided to try a restaurant we hadn't been to.  We went on to have a fabulous night and heard from many friends that the party was equally great.  The lesson is that most times everyone is happy when people are honest with themselves and do what they know is right and most times the Irish goodbye works for everyone.

Check yourself kid.  He's 6'1" and he played high school basketball, damnit.  He'll even play you in 1-on-1 to put you in your place!  He can still dunk!  Nothing short about him, especially in the pants!

So Ners....we have 260 votes...54% to 46% you go... When does this take effect?


Also, I don't think you should be banned by the mods. But I do think you should voluntarily go away.

Never.

The mods could simply ban hammer him every time he makes another Derrick v. Dawson post, but I understand that would be a significant effort on their part.  Still, an enforced 5 day vacation every time and he'd learn, eventually.

Oh bet it is true. How we disagree. Once again, Watson, you see but you do not observe.

I'm totally willing to admit that I'm wrong.

Show me a post where Sultan (or anybody for that matter) has praised Derrick Wilson.

Ironically, the closest thing we have is probably something from NERS last year comparing Derrick to Aaron Craft.

I don't think Ners should leave. There are certain posters whose relentless, unwarranted praise of Derrick probably provoke Ners into setting the record straight. These same posters continually "poke the bear," then complain we he brings up his points. It takes two to tango. The same goes for everybody who whines about Chicos.
I support Derrick, simply because Ners is relentlessly attacking him. Derrick has always given 100%. He is not a great player, but he is a great teammate and does not deserve to relentlessly attacked. The criticism should have been on Buzz for not recruiting a better point guard. It is quite obvious this season that Dawson is not a better point guard than Derrick.

If I'm not mistaken there was a post last year of the real life Ners having something to do with owning a yogurt chain.  I believe 'Ners' is derived from a portion of his name.  I'm not certain but I think you can search for it.

Wholeheartedly agree.

Ners hijacks basketball threads with basketball opinion.  I get tired of it, but the heart is in the right place.

I'll take Ners over the half dozen or so Chicos trolls, who hijack basketball threads to spew personal animus.  While some of them may have been slighted at some point, how long should a grudge be held?  They need to take a break, IMHO, and reconsider what made them originally choose to become part of the Marquette Family.

Just to set the record straight: I attack Chicos because he lied about me calling his wife a liar on this board. He has repeated the lie often.

That's it. I was never slighted nor do I hold a grudge. It is simply based on what he said and continues to say.

I bring word from the Dark Lord that he isn't happy about the Ners, potential ban.  He feels that many of the posters against him, don't bring much entertainment value themselves.  It's a classic case of groupthink.  Those with boring conversation, huddle together, feeling the camaraderie.  Instead, what they're doing is trying to eliminate a voice that is different.  Oooooooh........ I'm scared of different !!!  I don't know what to do or how to acknowledge different because my life is boring !!!  Ahhhhhhhhhhh !!!!!!!  Let's ban him so I can go back to my normal white bread life. 

Ners will not be banned.   The Dark Lord hath put a plan in motion.  He is disgusted that many of you would turn against your brethren. 

UNITY shall prevail, not this petty divide and conquer mantra.  You are weak like Juan Andersen in the paint. 

And I thought I posted too often. By the end of the night you'll be averaging over 20 a day. I'm at under 1.5. You have returned and not missed a beat.

I haven't posted in a long long time.

There are so many things about MU basketball that could/should be discussed,  but those threads are few and far between.

Making things worse, when there is actually the start to a good thread,  it is quickly hijacked by the usual suspects and devolves into total garbage....usually completely off-topic......usually a pissing match.

For this reason,  I voted "yes" to a voluntary ban.

I propose anyone who has been banned, be exiled to Rivals island.  Maybe Scoop would be readable again.

Why don't we just have an MUScoop pick up game and the losers buy the winners dinner and drinks.  It'd be a great bonding experience and would definitely make this place more interesting.  We could get MUTV to record it and post it on here for all of those who cannot attend.

Good description of last year's issue.  Ners' problem this season is that he hasn't yet come to grips with the fact that Derrick is still a better option than John...even though it now means that Derrick is option 2 or 3 (depending on whether Duane is played at PG or SG), and that John is still behind him - as option 3 or 4.

That's right - I'm a "Derrick supporter", and I'm saying that he is the second or third best PG this season...only ahead of John.  I guess that counts as "relentless unwarranted praise."

+1. Excellently stated. There was no one consistently praising Derrick. The best I remember anyone saying is "best option on the team right now" "very good defender" "high character kid." He certainly got trashed more than he got praised. This was never an argument about if Derrick Wilson was good, it was an argument about Derrick Wilson being less inadequate than Jamil/Mayo/Dawson at the PG.

Ners must be sitting back just enjoying what he created here:

But he did and TSmith34 found nada.  The lesson?  To this point there is no internet search engine that can search the dark recesses of your and Wojo'sMojo's imaginations.

My imaginations? It's funny how the tune on Derrick has changed. Now certain posters claim that they have always said he was just the best of a bad situation. That's bs and there were plenty of arguments about it on here. What happened to his elite game changing defense? His ball security and leadership on the court? We just need to adjust our lineup to fit his skills? And the best one, "he's the least of our problems." Im not going to go into search history to prove my point and posters can backtrack from their statements all they want.

My wife actually preferred Red Mango. As for myself, when she would suggest a Red Mango run I would always counter with a trip to a local single malt dispensary.


I've gone cold turkey off the chit since investigatin' the whole soft yogurt manufacturin' process. Basically, the softer the yogurt, the more sugar and/or sugar substitutes are involved. Sugar and wheat will absolutely kill one's ass. Can't completely eliminate all sugar, certainly can cut back. I like mine hard. So, stickin' to Purple Door or Go Greek in Chicos neck of the woods.
No human needs to eat any wheat or grains.

If Ners is banned, what happens to the bet? And just for a refresher, what were the conditions on that $500 bet?

Derrick does show good leadership.  Derrick does protect the ball very well - check out his TO numbers.

The "elite game-changing defense" was a mocking phrase used by the Derrick haters in response to the Derrick supporters simply saying he is a good defender...which he is.

Fail.
