Cats' MOD Change?

I know KT is the Mod, but I feel like someone else should take his place.

I have been following the Cats forum for quite some time, and now it seems every single thread is all about race. I am sick of it, honestly, the Cats are on the verge of getting somewhere they have never been, and I want to talk about that. It seems threads get off topic, because KT begins accusing people of being racist, and that rowdys everyone up! He should post his thoughts in Smack (or Tinderbox), where it belongs.

Secondly, there was a name change thread, that aside from it getting off track (racism), its overall message was interesting....changing the Bobcats name. I still feel this is a great topic, however, I can post on that thread because its LOCKED! (and future threads get locked/deleted) To me, it seems KT's motives do not seem to support the greater good of the Cats....

Is it just me, or am I the only one?

So I am posing this question....

Is it possible that we vote King Taharga out as the MOD?

My replacement vote would be RadioKiller, because he seems to be unbiased, and supports the Cats.:smash:

The name change thread was locked because it basically just became a "spam" thread for the Charlotte Observer. I advised posters to just create a new thread anytime a new article appears. No one's done it yet, but you're more than welcome next time the Observer creates a new "name change" article. I scour the internet hours upon hours everyday looking for articles about the Bobcats and yet the only place a "name change" was discussed was on the Observer's website to draw blog hits to it. I felt at the time the CHARLOTTE BOBCATS were in the middle of a playoff run was not the appropriate time to contemplate erasing the legacy the team has been trying to build. Its still discussed over there on their forum if you want to discuss it. And racism is very much apart of the "name change" discussion whether you want to admit it or not.

You do realize without me bitching to Zod 5 years ago, there's a great chance this forum wouldnt even be in here? Yet because I go at the Charlotte Observer and voice the concerns of Bobcats fans Im no longer capable of being a mod? In 5 years in this forum I have closed 2 threads, 1 being the "name change" thread, the other the "ex-bobcats" thread which I quickly re-opened in moved to the Tinderbox. Compared to the other mods on this board the past 5 years, thats light duty. And no matter how passionately I objected to someone on this forum Ive never had them banned or even asked for them to banned. While I welcome anyone to support your movement if they feel the need, I challenge anyone on this board to name a poster who's contributed more to this forum than me.

So once again, the Charlotte mentality, if we dont like what you're saying we want to "vote you out" or "ban" you. I think thats why so much animosity over Bob Johnson, there was no one to "vote him out" or tell him "no you cant do that" and its built up resentment. If I had to black out Jerry Richardson to root for the Panthers, I would feel very conflicted.

BS!! People want the name change because it a terrible name for a team & the fact it was named after BJ's first name. Racism has nothing to do with wanting name change. They just want a better name that isn't named after an owner. You won't admit that instead. :rolleyes:

      I’m not sure people understand how fuging bad it is

      Welcome to the internet. It's always been like that. What has changed in the Bryce era is that suddenly encountering different ideas has been widely interpreted as "hostility". There were the Cam stans who did it too, don't get me wrong. But it was a small handful. Before the Discord departure there were quite a few posters who anytime they saw anything less than glowing about Bryce acted like you were trashing their own child.  Not even trying to be snide here but I honestly think Bryce's atypical small stature and meek personality triggers some type of reflexive parental instinct or something. Hell if I know, I just know that it's weird.

      What is closest to your Bryce opinion?

      I knew what I saw the pro day video. I had him off my board because of his size but then it became a realistic possibility that he was going #1.  So I looked at the pro day and a couple of other videos. I was as sure as I could be without actually seeing him on an NFL field.    That spring after he was drafted I knew all the hype could only be countered with actual NFL game results so just remained as silent as I could in the face of the insane hype and self congratulatory ‘we are so smart playoffs here we come’ poo. Pretty quiet.  Then came his debut and it was everything I thought it would be. And worse.  For two weeks. Then Frank put Dalton in. Game over. Debate over.  He is not an NFL QB. His game didn’t look NFL at all. In no way did it look pro.     And guys, those of you who want to throw out that first season, he was never it, he was never going to be it. You can trot out all the excuses known to fankind, it will not change the reality. Just more noise to signal.  He showed us all right away in the first two weeks and Dalton put a bow on it. Even in a washed state and in a loss. The difference was night and day.

      His “aww shucks” reaction after the first and goal pick last night says a lot.
