OT: So I have a slight problem (that isn\'t buckeye related)
 

There have been a few posts here lately that are anti-social, anti-fun, and/or anti-ot posts as of late. If you don't like these types of posts, I suggest you stop reading this forum as most of the top notch posters here are personal friends and enjoy the off topic posts more than the random "how is my push" posts. That is all.

Very articulate. BTW, did you notice my new location?

Agreed.

Speaking of OT:

Why put in the other QB to run the two minute drill when he was replaced for good reason in the first half by a man who preformed great for the rest of the game and got them to where they were.

Sure sure veteran guy better at two minute drill blah blah, I don't think he should ever play another game for ohio.

Re: So I have a slight problem (that isn\'t buckeye related)
 

Veteran? Zwick and Smith are just about even in QB experience at OSU.

Re: So I have a slight problem (that isn\'t buckeye related)
 

You do realize this forum was created by 2+2 as a 1 table tournament forum, do you not? IF you like off-topic posts more, than honestly, WHY ARE YOU HERE?

You do realize this is not a forum to post your life story, etc? There are a ton of boards online to do this, but are not located on 2+2. Does anyone else see this? Am I wrong??

I like to have fun, but I also like to keep on topic.

just going by something they said on TV.

Still weren't you surprised to see Zwick go back in? Then he loses the ball scrambling which seemed to be Smiths forte.

I see how the title of this thread was misleading enough for you to think there may be poker-related content within.

Re: So I have a slight problem (that isn\'t buckeye related)
 

I had reason to believe that this post was a reply to the post I made on another thread.

I also do not like the attacks I am recieveing from a select group of members on this board.

I simply stated my opinion, and got jumped. Do you not agree with what I am saying? If not, cool, but I bet alot of others agree and will not speak up simply because of people like you.

Re: So I have a slight problem (that isn\'t buckeye related)
 

Beef, I whole-heartedly agree. You get to a point where strategy isn't that fun to read about anymore. Even though I don't know you guys personally, it's much more fun for me to read OT posts.

Re: So I have a slight problem (that isn\'t buckeye related)
 

Jim Tressel is an idiot. That's all.

I simply stated my opinion. In your other thread you appear to have seen the light (my usual water-cooler retort). I will agree with you that it probably isn't as much fun when you don't know the cast of characters. If you have the ever popular stickoutoftheassectomy you should come to Vegas next time there's a get together and you'll find all of this much more enjoyable.

Short of that, you can put me on ignore, because I pledge to not post more than one strategy-related post a week.

Re: So I have a slight problem (that isn\'t buckeye related)
 

I could sit here and argue with you all night, becasue frankly, I am in an arguing mood. Just the fact that you think this is a social get together makes me laugh out loud. You don't own this forum, you are not a mod, and therefore you have no reason to talk down to me, like you have done tonight. If you want to feel superior, sorry to tell you, but me and you are equals on this forum.

Unless you only make 1 or 2 posts max per week, this statement should be laughed at, since this forum is (weather you like it or not) a poker-related forum.

As I have stated earlier, if you want to make a buch of friends and tell them about how your life is going, then please join another forum (there are thousands and I can help you find one if you'd like).

I am not trying to be a boring strict poker only poster. There are times when some OT posts are suitable, in fact some are needed to spice up the forum. But when I see 4 or 5 a day (or more), that most people here have no intrest in, I get sad.

Since when did posts have to be off topic to be fun and sociable?

In theory you could. I wouldn't recommend it.

Re: So I have a slight problem (that isn\'t buckeye related)
 

I don't think that I have spoken down to you. I have tried to explain the reason for this phenomenon. I even sympathized with why you may feel like an outsider and gave you an option as to how to get to know everyone better.

I took some offence to this, simply becasue the number of posts shouldn't matter. In fact, you did this twice, proving to me that you felt superior, and wanted to somehow rub it in. If I might add, I find that many of the posters on this forum are the same, so you are not alone.

Re: So I have a slight problem (that isn\'t buckeye related)
 

Hi,
I'm on the fence on this particular issue -- i.e. I wouldn't have made a post replying to another post which I didn't care to read in the first place... but I'm not a big fan of blatantly off-topic "look what I bought/look at how much I won" posts either. So whatever. But I DO find it very humorous how people on this board jump all over newbies with legitimate poker related questions, yet when someone makes a (fairly benign) reply to a blatant content-less post with zero value to this forum, people jump down your throat because everyone "knows" him.

Anyway, like I said I don't really care who's right or who's wrong on this one. And I doubt these are all the same people who jump all over newbies. Just the double standard in general is humorous (I never see anyone defending the new posters).

Re: So I have a slight problem (that isn\'t buckeye related)
 

Smith f'ed up real bad on the final series, of course. An interception is just as bad as a safety there Troy, throw the freakin ball.

Zwick has an inexplicable reputation for being "the smart one", but that's either because he's so obviously not the talented one and/or because he's white. He's Tim Couch mk.II to me, and I hate him. Not as much as Tressel, though, who is a horrible in-game coach who is riding that National Championship afterglow pretty hard. Ginn is one of the most dangerous openfield runners in the country, give him the goddamn football.

As to Poker, I accidentally played a limit HE SNG a little bit ago, and man was I out of place. I played it pretty much like a ring game and somehow miracled a 3rd place. What's the theory on these?
Actually, instead of a low/high limit split, wouldn't it make more sense to do a "9 or 10 man NLHE SNG" and a "Every other kind" split forum? It seems Omaha and Stud SNGs are decently popular, at least at the low limits.

Re: So I have a slight problem (that isn\'t buckeye related)
 

bluetooth, i think you're wrong--- and i'm not an OT poster and haven't made any friends through this forum.

i agree though that this is a 1-table tourney forum...

the off-topic posters are 1-table tournament players... this is where they belong... that's the reason why they are here.

if you removed the off-topic posts from this forum, you would end up removing most of the best players and the best strategy advice.

so it might be best to chill out and absorb as much as you can.

That or disregard the posts you don't want to read. There is a TON of poker related stuff on these boards, and if you search through the archives, you will likely find more than enough material to keep you busy.

I think you are missing a major point here. If the people you are referring to in this statement did as you asked the value of this forum is greatly diminished. I believe the people you are complaining about are the top players and strategy posters on the forum.

I dont think a few off topic posts are going to kill anyone, however it can get out of hand...

I suppose, though if barely any of them ever post strategy these days then what difference does it make? In the end complaining about it is useless because it won't change anything, so stop worrying and learn to love the bomb.
