Cheers, the dude.

Phil was kind enough to set up an account for me himself, tonight. Just in time for the start of Lakers basketball!

Butcher found me on Myspace

FatSam's back to authoring, I think.

NLB is around here too he's DaMuleRules.

Wilt's probably here too, dunno which name.

Falken is dead or something...

I'm C. Montgomery Burns. Long live the legendary LT!

This was actually my first Lakers-specific message board (2001). Before that, I'd spent too many of my teeny years on either the AOL or ESPN NBA boards.

Then came LT, and a long disdain for this site. Now here's me, without the disdain, Anxious to start talking about how the Lakers can get themselves out of the (bleep) hole that their management has dug.

Glad to see you guys again. I intend on actually sticking around and not getting banned within my first dozen posts!

I had a few different names on lakerstalk as Fatsam let you change it every once in a while.....

Any chance LT will be coming back?

Yeah did FatSam just give up on LT or what? LT was full of layed back, chill people and the site layout was most visually appealing compared to LG and CL.

I was West Indies at Lakerstalk 2.0 and Westies at the orginal LT way back when.

I find it interesting that you assume, because I'm not a mod anymore, that it means things have drastically changed. The only real change, is that rules that weren't previously spelled out... are now spelled out. My input went into those rules as well.

I really haven't any desire to moderate anymore and I have communicated this to Phil and the rest of the staff. As the new title might suggest, I do continue to speak with other staff members on a regular basis and am quite certain the spirit and functionality of LG remains the same. So contrary to your belief... I do, still have influence and input on this site.

Taking little potshots, isn't winning favor with anyone. It just makes the decision (of which I was part of) to turn a page and welcome people back, questionable in some cases.

I hope you continue to enjoy the site... but, get over the need to hold onto your hate.

Perhaps I was wrong and things have not changed around here....

So, rather than help build the LakersGround community, which: 1) Is supported by a board that's still actually running; and 2) Has welcomed you back besides several past issues which have made us wary, you choose to retreat into a thread where members of the LakersGround community are not welcomed unless you mention them first, chiding them if they dare post here.

If you thought that kind of crap would be allowed now, then you're right -- things have NOT changed around here.

I was worried about what might happen with this thread, and you've confirmed my fears. This is the end of it.

Wow, give you a welcome here, forget the past and get this in return. :roll:

We have changed. We are not interested in being your enemy/scapegoat/ or surrogate for someone you have conflict with.

What you said above was a vailed personal attack on a member, a founding member of the site, btw.

Humility might be the lesson one should get from the failure of a community, maybe?

Almost all the mods participated in the new guidelines. It was a recognition by us all that we could and wanted to do better.

Will you try the same? Will you try and get along without being hostile to another? If you can do that, you are in the right place. If you can't, go to a community you can, for as long as that will last.

So no one knows when LT is coming back? I thought you guys all jumped off the Lakers bandwagon.
I miss those LT BBQ meetings. Oh the memories...
