Maybe if I wake up on time I'll catch the main and co-main but I can't be bothered to watch a bunch of guys I've never heard of and Noob Saibot silhouettes fight.

I want to see the trashweight fights but the 6:30 am ET start time is rough

Edit: Looks like the main card starts at 6:30 not 3:15, that's the prelims

I jsut went back to check to see if the card was on Saturday or Sunday in North Am and found that the main card starts at 5:30 AM - I thought that was the prelims!

Early prelims start at 2:15 AM central time. :suicide:

I'll probably blast through them over my morning coffee, hopefully to catch up for the fatweights.

I guess another thing that differentiates B leagues from UFC is that B league commentators actually put the microphones inside their mouths to create a sense of excitement and urgency.

i won't criticise the moderation because hey, illegal r word, but i've got something to say about the hurrr only a 6er babby brigade that gbs has spawned - just because it's a negligible amount of time doesn't mean the moderating decision doesn't suck rear end (not commenting on your recent decision, j-man, take your finger off the trigger)

gently caress all that poo poo man, look at this loving majestic line up. as you go down the list, remember all the good posts they did. they might have wrote a sick op and actually put some effort in, even if it wasn't funny. they might have said a sick one liner. or if you're jerusalem you're probably remembering all those cool pms they sent you about whatever snivelling bitch made poo poo leapt out of the screen and made them feel inadequate this time

I absolutely want everyone to post in the manner they find pleasing. I don't want to see anyone forced out or be told to leave. I even agree that some of the probes have been a bit much. I mean we're talking about the most carny but still legit sport there is, no one should be taking it that seriously.

I apologize for coming off as attacking a few posters. These slapfights are just tedious.

you just made an argument for why "6ers are nothing" crowds aren't fully appreciating bad moderation standards and the standards of SA and now you're complaining that people don't break the rules enough by posting about bad posting instead of doing what SA tells you to do and letting the moderators deal with it so it doesn't become slapfighty circlejerky posting-cliques thing like the thing you are doing right now

this loving gibberish. i don't think you comprehended a single argument i made or made a single salient point yourself. small communities like this one self police. fatherdog gave out like three probes the entire time he was here and they were to people like the sexual market guy. the community dictated the standards for the community by posting to each other about it. fd didn't decide he didn't like the lol word and persecute it with extreme prejudice. he just pinged people for saying human being or whatever.

or, alternatively, it's possible that other people use the forum differently than you see it and maybe it's not that everyone else is wrong and you are the only right one, as in a community with differing views

here's a fun hypothetical example: I think the endless flood of "lol" shitposting and the now multi-year-long recurring tantrum about not being able to say slurs is beyond idiotic and tiring, but i'm not going to fall to my knees and cry "IS THIS WHAT HAS BECOME OF OUR MMA FORUM" to the heavens about it. if I came in every time skip my posts just went "lol" at something and replied "Hey, friend. Have you thought about what this says about our community posting standards? Please try to post better." for one I'd be a loving idiot and for two all I'd be contributing is lovely derails that don't convince anyone of anything, because nothing I am saying is actually any deeper than "i think this sucks," like what you are doing now, when on the other hand I am perfectly free to not engage with that post and let him have whatever the gently caress posting fun he wants and not make a big deal out of it just because i don't like it.

post what you want, interact with the posters you want to interact with. you're not rescuing genius from the abyss by being mad the moderator probates people for saying slurs.

edit: i look forward to the probations we're all going to get for having this conversation.

thanks for admitting to being the snitch, saves me making broad strokes and catching some benign posters in my awesome crossfire, but the fact that you think saying 'lol' in response to a mondo brain damaged assertion by a person who is completely unqualified to make that assertion is worthy of moderator intervention then you are absolutely the loving problem.

next time you see a lol, you could try saying hey, skip my posts, that reply is scurrying away from the awesome point dickhead #57 made about how much the ufc is worth, try answering his question in the future instead of bitching out of a discussion. and immediately after pressing post you'll get me and several other people saying 'lol' at you because you took the side of the stupid dickhead who deserves to be made fun of and dismissed because your brain clearly doesn't work properly.

the community is now magically better. stupid derails about the ufc's value will stop because the community decided it's stupid. no mod intervention necessary.
