People in putting their 'persona' above the real team... Franchise, community, businesses... Is the root of some issues. Grinding axes baselessly (not an outburst or humor) and doggedly defending one position that can't be adequately supported against another with the same deficiency is an example.

The personal attacks when you disagree with the wrong person is a big turnoff to most. It's like a minefield.

I don't care since I'm a self-important brick wall (according to reports here), but that is basically what is left when you run off the interested parties who just won't make the leap into asking for abuse randomly.

Thank you. Though I don't think you are defending my post, I think you make my point. Look at the discussion I got for even mentioning the vibe in the arena concerning Austin Rivers. I see what I see and hear what I hear. Yet, the first few replies are flames and sarcastic ROFL emotes. I'd assume part of that is based on the fact that some of them haven't been in the arena and feel obligated to make those opinions seem founded on those that do.

I think you might be the only person to feel this way on here. Frankly, I think you bring it onto yourself. With the access and knowledge you bring to this board, you could easily be the best poster on here if you dropped the wall and became "one of the guys" so to say. Don't mean for this to be an attack, just my view on you. It's obvious you know what you're talking about, sometimes lacking on how to say it.
