Well I never liked the idea of a Thanks/Fail button to being with but plenty of people use the thanks/fail button without actually contributing to a thread. I do participate in this thread, you may search for all my comments if you wish. I try to add anything relevant I can if I believe people might be interested. You will also find I don't trash talk, I don't gloat, I don't pounce on the canucks when the lose, I don't rub it in anyone's face when the leafs win. I also have to keep in mind where I am - one leaf fan against all these canuck fans - sometimes its just pointless to even attempt to argue because itstead of a one on one argument its a one on everyone argument and those arguments can get murky or off on a tangent real quick. If you guys really want me to up my post count and try to turn this into TSN's comment section I can do that

If a user abuses the fail button, it'll be removed for them (at the very least).
Not saying you are. Just letting everyone know.
We're all hockey fans here. I'm not just a Canucks fan...I love hockey in general. Trash talk is expected but like on the ice, play clean.

I might be stating the obvious here, but if you don't like the fail button why do you use it so much? Posted via RS Mobile |

because at first it just seemed to me like a another status symbol, a goal for people to earn a lot of thanks or a lot of fails while not adding too much substance to a thread. I would also see people like tegra devil in seasons past get nailed with fails without really earning them with stupid comments but for being a flames fan. I began to thank him (and others) to counter this behaviour, show my support as a fellow non-canuck fan, and to also genuinely thank him for not being afraid to comment in these threads.

I did not like it at all when Tegra Devil was told to stay out of the canuck thread and make his own and treid to convince him not to give in. I can take a good joke and have even made fun of my own team in the past, but most often, leafs fans are the best at making fun of leaf fans ( www.downgoesbrown.com). I don't like to see it sink to the level of a TSN comment section. I'm never surprised by the behaviour in this room but I would prefer to keep the level of discussion as civil and intelligent as possible.

Hah making fun of the Laffs is a Vancouver pasttime. Expressing your discontent can be made without spamming fails.

Was Tegra told to stay out of this thread or encouraged to start his own since he was talking Flames? (Honest question)
I only fail his obvious troll posts, but overall I think he's welcome here. This thread would be very boring and with only homers and Bieksa haters. Posted via RS Mobile |

I never had a problem with the Leafs until I met a friend who is such a die hard fan that it has made him absolutely ignorant towards any other team in the NHL. Especially the Canucks because he lives here and has to hear about them 24/7. Only after I started getting tired of his shit did I notice that many Leafs fans lack basic objectivity skills. Their undying love for their Leafs has fueled my hatred toward them.
Right or wrong, that's my reason. I have a lot of Habs fan friends and their not the same. (At least the ones I know) I was cheering with them during their awesome playoff run and became an honourary Habs fan. That shit ended as soon as their run did tho Posted via RS Mobile |

it's quite obvious the LARGE majority of us are going to cheer for the canucks and to ask us to accept you as a fan of a rival team (while also failing everything anti-leafs) is naive at best. your team will be ridiculed and so will you. this is plain fact, not me trying to be an asshole. this is exactly what i would expect if i were to frequent another team's thread as a canucks fan. that's just common sense!
let me make this clear: all fans are welcome in this thread, just don't expect to be treated the same as everyone else when you're a fan of a team we clearly hate.
