I get some good chuckles out of watching you guys go all anti-hines when he posts. I think maybe hines was in the military.... no time to hold you tight and pet your hair as he pours sweet honey in your ears. He's straight and to the point and it's funny.
I guess I have yet to see any "tangible content" from hiney. It's always negativity, mostly deriding other posters for the topics they have chosen to post about.
Couldn't have said it better.
It's pretty simple. If you don't think the topic is interesting then don't post on the thread. Things like "he ain't comin'" or "i love how some of you freak out over a 16yr old" is hardly tangible content. It's just being a jackass.
He's done the same garbage over at eSuck for years and many of us have just grown tired of his schtick.
Couldn't have said it better.
His put you down, better than thou attitude is real, real old. I think some of the young guys on here think he's funny, until he starts on them...... then not so funny.

No, the problem is little men become real big, tough, and arrogant behind their keyboard !
No ones talking about being "big & tough". If being able to handle someone being mean on a message board is "big & tough" then its even worse than I thought.
Your the one I'm directing my post to. Your SUPPOSED to be a moderator here and your calling some of us posters little girls or sensitive little men because we don't like the attitude of another poster who's been doing this sh*t for years but you don't like it because were giving it back to him. Huh ? What are you still in high school ? You seem to enjoy hines saying obnoxious things as long as it's NOT directed at YOU. ! Hines and anyone else can say what ever they want but just be prepared for some curt response back. I treat people with respect and expect it in return. You don't give it you don't get it ! Simple as that !

Olive didn't start out as a cesspool either. I used to go discuss Duck football there years ago, but haven't clicked on it in at least two years.
Duck Territory banned him after 2 months, it must have been because he brought so much "good info" to the board right DT=DD? The fact is he hasn't posted 1 thing I didn't already know (and anyone with 5.00-9.99 would know on a pay site) he brings nothing to the board. He has toned it down since his early days of posting, but he's definitely one of those who can dish it out but can't take it. I remember about 5 years ago on educk that everyone was over his stick and started calling him wHines1, and he got pissed off and whined to M4 about it.
Why do you guys care so much? Its an internet forum, ignore him. Man some people on this board are going to have a heart attack by 30 over some punk poster. You know you can just scroll past what he says. Relax people.
Ok obviously I was a bit riled up & said somethings that offended people. Sorry. But I'm not changing my opinion on hines. His "mean" posts are completely harmless but every time he posts the thread is totally derailed by all his haters attacking him. You guys are no different than him! I just can't get over the fact that he can post barely a sentence & there's people on this board that LOSE THEIR MINDS over it. If you don't like his posts IGNORE them. The second you quote him & start to type you've become the terrible poster that you claim him to be.
Next time he posts & posters on this board tell him, for the millionth time, how mean he is & how nobody likes him, I'm just gonna delete their posts. Problem solved. You can whine about a moderator calling people names & defending the most hated poster on the internet but I really don't care. You're no better than hines. And I really don't care about hines, I think his posts are pretty funny most of the time but its more the principal of it all. You're up there on your message board high horse telling hines how terrible of a person he is for not being nice on a message board. Get over yourselves, you're doing the same thing he is. But your "defending the goodness of message boards" so its ok.

It's the offseason, unfortunately people get riled up over little issues. Everyone needs to take a deep breath and relax. If you want to take out your anger, go to pure-orange.net. Thanks.

Did you get approval for this? Is this the new official board policy that Hines or other "special posters" can say whatever he wants but no one is allowed to respond to him? As one who largely ignores his baiting myself I hadn't responded in this thread. But it is a little disconcerting to see a board set policy giving official protected status to a poster with a notorious track record for baiting and flaming on multiple boards.
I do fully support the board owners rights to set such a policy but I just as certainly won't post anymore under those rules.
There's no such thing as a "special poster", hines hasn't ever said anything overly offensive or crossed any boundaries that I've deemed as 'flaming'.
Surely hines can come off as very rude at times. But this is a message board, and as long as he follows the general guidelines and rules of our forum, then he's allowed to state his opinion. If there are any specific problems to any specific posts of hines, please send me a personal message and we can discuss it. There's truly no point into arguing this on the forum. If you have a problem, come talk to me and we'll figure something out.
I do care for everyone's concerns, but there's really not much I can do when everyone is arguing over the board and nobody comes to me with a problem. So please, send me a PM if there's a problem, I'd love to help.
