How many Cards Fans here?

Post by Pura Vida »

I would venture a guess around 98%? I don't understand the hostility and insults thrown regularly. Ideas and opinions are part of the fun of being a fan. We're all in the same boat, and want to see our team perform well and win. Here's to an interesting season!

Well...the hostility and insults are sadly human nature. If the penalty was a ban then some on here would be a lot more civil. Those of us that remember the cesspool that was current affairs know just how bad it could get. And some, because of that human nature, respond with insults when insulted. Calling someone names is really uncalled for and I've struggled with it myself. I do want the Cards to win but some of us disagree with the direction the team is taking and apparently that breeds hostility and ridicule. Why we can't just discuss and disagree like adults is a mystery. I hope to do better in the future.

Are you new to the interwebs?

It's the gauntlet of posting on a forum. Dont post, or go start your own forum and restrict it how you like.

Maybe try Only Fans! 8O

You’re right. And when every thread some people start are intentionally aimed at causing backlash.

There's always going to be differences of opinions, not just here but in all of life. Some of those differences are going to result in loud words. It's life, it's CT, it's not going to change. A lot of the name calling is because a VERY few people who do stupid things. Like posting the same stuff over and over again. Not just muliple days but multiple times in ONE day, which is just stupid. Guys if you start a thread saying player A is great at 8AM, and don't get the answers you wanted - don't start the same (bleep) thread at 10AM, noon, etc etc expecting different results.

Only think that might be different, is someone will tell to shut the ....up
