LITP needs to go

Just wait it out, and there will be turnover. What is the typical shelf life of a mod, anyway?

Not particularly. However, it ain't my board - I don't pay to host it, and I don't pay for the bandwidth.

I am as die hard a Steelers fan as you will find but I don't see the problem with LITP being a mod here. Yinz can bicker amongst yourselves. I'm done with this thread.

Lets all be honest,regardless of which side of the LITP/MOD issue you fall on....ANYONE who thought that Suit did not handle himself is perhaps the worst way possible is kidding themselves...

....Suit was not involved in just a run-in with a MOD...but was also very publicly "at odds" with three other forum members..who apparantly were not allowed to have their own opinions....

...AND he left once before after a VERY public problem with another forum member....Personally I got along with Suit...but I have to be true to myself and say that he did not see a point in shrugging off opposing views and just moving on.

True, but that only works if that boss doesn't come after you first and gets ya canned.

And yes suit deserved it.

For one I agree that litp has to go, if he cared about the integrity of the board he would step down. This board has turned into a circus since he was named mod. He has pissed off countless people. I think he sticks around because he loves the drama. Kinda steelerfevers own drama queen. I have been personally attacked by litp, he picks and chooses when to play along with the rules. Bottom line.... This board doesnt need this kind of press.

the board hasnt turned into a circus since litp became mod. this board has had typical board dynamics long before he became mod. in fact the "circus" has been trimmed down from 3 rings to 2 clowns and a juggling act. some people actually go to the circus for fun and entertainment. part of the fun is that someone may get hurt. (someone fall off the high wire, the lion bite off the lion tamers head, someone not catch their partner on the trapeeze etc.) typical suspense and drama that people pay to see.

there was plenty of typical drama and cyberbattles that went on before litp became mod. litp and myself can attest to this as well as anyone. does that mean i hate litp or posters such as hardwork, bengalbrian, or geez aka sniffsmyanus? of course not. i'll talk shit to them anytime.

this always gets blown way out of proportion. an argument is healthy every once in a while. and while this board is nowhere near jerry springer, theres a reason people would tune in to watch. i know most members of this board (like myself) are not the type to even tune in to jerry springer (except for our resident bunglefans), and this board is nowhere near that so lets not be paranoid and act like it is. a little drama never killed anyone though.

as far as a patfan as a mod, i think i can speak for everybody on this board when i say no steelerfan is a member of a steelers board to constantly hear a mod demean and bash the steelers or their fans convictions. i would expect a moderator to be a fan of the steelers or atleast show utmost respect to the the team and most loyal and knowledgable fanbase out there. i dont even care if a mod pretends. on a steelers site a mod should be a representative and an ambassador of the black and gold.

otherwise whats the point? i think litp is realizing this.

now bring in the clowns! (and the bear on a bicycle is always cool)

Well, anyone who sticks their neck out and hands the party they're at odds with a knife, they're kinda bringing it on themselves, no?

until the false dreams of the marvin lewis era, rolling boogers into a ball between the thumb and forefinger was the only sport that bunglefans could claim to be champions of...
