Board 8 > Kobe Bryant has reportedly died in a helicopter crash.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Of all the bullshit posts in this topic, like 30+ which of calling people names and insulting users. I, of course, was the only one moderated in this topic because I made a small joke that maybe LeBron passing people in the top 3 in scoring in the NBA brings about a curse to people that he passes the next day and maybe we should have LeBron stopping passing the two left ahead of him.

And, of all the bullshit posts in this topic, mine was the only one moderated for being "offensive". If that isn't a sign off how terrible the moderator on this board is, then nothing ever will be.

That's trash moderating.

That said, if you wanna come in here dealing out hot takes to feel better about yourself as a person then don't get mad when you get hot takes about yourself and your virtue signalling. Don't dish it then whine when you get it back.

Well, at least no one has threatened to kill anyone here.

The odds of dying by flying (via helicopter, plane, ect.) are significantly lower than those of dying in a car accident. It's a freak accident when it does happen.

I'm not gonna lie to you, Post-911 I do get a bit antsy before boarding a plane.

Is that a threat?

That's understandable. I think it has to do with how people want to be in control of their own fate, and even if you're significantly more likely to be killed in a car crash than while flying, at last you still have your hands on the wheel when the former happens and could theoretically stop it. Helicopter usage (at least private, commercial usage) is probably going to take a sharp drop after what happened.

If it is, it's not from *me*.

Doubt it.
People have always been dying in Helicopters, it was even more common 30 year ago.
That never deterred anyone.

However after Davey Allison died in 1992, I never wanted to get on one. Even those fun rides at the shore that take off like 20 times a day. Never wanted to ride it.

in the past i would say its absolutely hilarious that the same predictable people are making the same predictable stupid comments and posts but honestly after the amount of time these people have spent being this way i cant even laugh any more. its just saddening. im not entirely sure what causes people to be that way for like a decade plus on a chat forum, but id imagine its a nasty cocktail of loneliness, zero self esteem in the offline world, and some significant mental illness. again, in the past i would laugh because of the predictability of it. now i would just encourage you all to reach out to a therapist or someone in a professional clinical setting that you can talk to before spending your entire life being this way on GameFaqs

mamba out

I'll never understand the need for people to interject themselves into topics like this. Like the rationale behind it is just mind-boggling to me. I could go on and on about it but yeah, I would agree that even though this board is full of middle aged men now there's still this air of immaturity that will never really be vanquished.

I didnt even get to the part where you apparently joined the conversation but im glad you felt my words were about you too. cause without even reading a single vowel of a post you made here i can say with 100% confidence that they apply

well fortunately i don't give a flying fuck what you think about me so...

youve had the same deal for over a decade man. in the history of people who give a flying fuck you give the flyingest of all the fucks. im racking my brain for even a close 2nd place but there is just no competiton

if it makes you feel better if you think that i care a copious amount about the feedback from a dude who has spent literal years being a gigantic asshole to me in the past, whatever.

the block feature is literally built for people who get upset when someone who posts once every 2 years makes a comment that wasnt even including you to begin with. i would highly recommend you use it, again for your personal sake and (clearly compromised) mental health.

Hi sess!

Yes nothing screams having a mental illness like having the position of...

*checks notes*

...rape is bad.

And nothing says normal and stable people like...

*checks next set of notes*

...threatening to kill people who bring it up.

i didnt even know you had posted in here either but you took offense to words that were not even aware of your presence so thank you for self reporting. this place is freaking amazing.

sess has always thrown accusations of people being mentally ill around because he constantly needs to remind us how superior he is. if anyone on this board has "had the same deal for over a decade," it's him.

yeah again i cant really help you man. i had entirely forgotten that you had even existed when i made my post. i went through the first little bit of this topic, saw some of the usuals doing their usual thing, made a post about how depressing that was without you in the slightest bit involved, you immediately took those words as a personal attack on yourself (of course), dug up some stupid video and posted it trying to engage in an attack on me when again i didnt think of you at all, and then when responded to you just yammer about how you dont care. based on that behavior, primarily you freaking out when you werent even involved, id highly encourage you blocking me or making a better effort to ignore me especially when im not even talking abohlut you

probably hard for you to understand but not everything on earth is about you man. hope you are doing well!

yeah, this.

he went on a diatribe about "the same people making stupid posts" but somehow he wasn't talking about me and you, the two people who got the most hatred in this topic?

who else was even posting here that didn't mourn kobe's death? LotM i guess?

lotm and tony were the posts that triggered my snowflake ass

Once again, no one believes you.

A lifetime of insincere posting on board 8 has earned you that distinction.

rock came into this topic later than i thought so that's possible i guess.

not sure why tony deserves so much vitriol for simply asking a question, though (after saying "F" in an earlier post, implying that he's actually affected by kobe's death).

im sorry to see that your general unhappiness apparently hasnt gotten better. always kinda rooted for you. again, not everythings about you man. you getting upset about posts not directed at you are just going to hurt you.

yeah man like im trying to be honest with yall. im sure whatever yall said whatever yall are saying yall said, i just didnt go through the 200+ more posts that were going to be fairly predictable after the first little wave.

Okay.

again you may have said that leprechauns have invaded mars because i havent read a single post you made in here before you started responding

the unhappiness remark comes from how you are doing whatever the hell you are doing now. still rooting for you in life. first step would be not thinking everything negative is about you man

---

Mr Lasastryke posted...

well fortunately i don't give a flying fuck what you think about me so...

If you didn't care you would have stopped responding to people in this topic a long time ago. Clearly you care.

Someone who doesn't care is me, as I have no interest in carrying on this argument beyond pointing out that you and Rock both care a whole lot about what people on a message board think.

If you want to prove me wrong then let this be the final post that kills the topic.

hey sess

I still think about Kobe every day

You made a blanket statement about those who chose to bring up Kobe's rape allegations, of which I was one of them. I don't even need to defend myself, I'm defending other's right to discuss it. Don't really care if you read all of my posts or none of them.

The irony is that I'm the happiest I've been in decades, and a lot of it comes from not dealing with others bullshit anymore.

if you dont care then and are not dealing with others bullshit anymore then i would highly encourage to stop dealing with bullshit that wasnt about you homje. jumping in front of bullets that didnt have your name on them, im not entirely sure what the hell your gameplan is at this point except for arguing for the sake of arguing. again, if stuff not spoken towards you is bothering you for some reason then use the ignore feature. i post as often as santa claus coming down your chimney so you are not missing anything
