Nice. Always skipped his long winded overly emotional content.
|
I cringed many times, but he had a nice hard blend of HFBoards and a sprinkling of Oilfans. The chaos was fun once in a while, but the last couple months were getting progressively worse.
|
It is really unfortunate. He creates content, and that's important for a message board. You need someone arguing.
I just wish it wasn't always personal with him - both believing that anyone disagreeing with him is making some kind of personal attack, as well as developing really vitriolic feelings towards those he disagrees with.
Hopefully he's back at some point and hopefully he's able to do better at separating his opinions from his emotions. We are just talking about a hockey team here after all. It's hardly life & death.

I do feel like a huge amount of the fan base, and oilers media, have opinions very in line with RDO, so his viewpoint was a good add to the forum.
But yeah, the personal stuff, taking offense really easily, just took things off the rails.
There is bashing players and management, or defending them to no end. Everyone has their ideas how to fix the mess we've watched for over a decade. I think that's what sports forums are all about, and arguing points back and forth. But when it flips to saying people are stupid or emotional for having opinions, conversation usually goes to a bad spot. Or if bashing of a player/manager has no real basis, playing victim if anyone asks you to back it up with something of substance.
