Media A #ThePhenomShow Exclusive: Is TheCoach16 vs BRAB the Mayweather vs McGregor of the SFA?

[TheCoach16]

Wow, would hate for you to be in charge of someone in my family if you consider it a bludge.

Sad.

I'm not "in charge" of the people I work with, BRAB. That's not how it works...

You clearly didn't pay much attention in that year of your bludge subject.

You clearly didn't pay much attention in that year of your bludge subject.

Instead of playing semantics it might be worth reflecting on the fact that you said you bludge in your workplace.

Very sad.

To be clear, I didn't actually take a psychology class either, I was denigrating your profession.

Ok, so to be clear, I said "bludge" to make a point after you used the term. The point was, it's hardly a bludge if you study it for 6 years and practice it for over two decades. You more comfortable with my ethic now?

And of course you'd denigrate my profession. That's your reflex response. To denigrate and humiliate. And given things you've shared in the past, it's probably a profession you should acknowledge. But you are who you are.

You should be more careful with your word choices. It made you sound negligent.

Are you saying my backwards legs make me a campaigner?

Thanks for the professional advice. But I have indemnity insurance, so it doesn't matter how I sound. My valuable work speaks for itself...

And no, you're attitude and general personality make you a campaigner. I don't know anything about "backwards legs".

You know, if you counseled yourself you may not have had a mental breakdown on a fantasy football forum.

You do realise the sweet FA isn't real right?

 

[brahj]

Any one got any good resources for coping strategies? Few Bombers in the match thread are pretty rattled. Probably because they have declined as posters, which is weird because they were ****in' shithouse to start with.

Haha, I am the best.

Do you know what a "mental breakdown" is, BRAB? If you did, you would know, I did not have one, and you certainly wouldn't make lite of the topic.

What I experienced was a level of transference. And yes, I overreacted and behaved poorly. Leading to genuine distress. Obvious and clear distress.

As a senior member of the SFA, what did you then do? You proceeded to taunt and bully and humiliate and compound the distress. Luckily for me, I snapped out of it. The next person you kick may not be so lucky. It happens all the time, BRAB, all the time.

Forgive me if I misinterpreted you, but did you just say me telling someone to delete their account would make them kill themselves?

 

[TheCoach16]

Forgive me if I misinterpreted you, but did you just say me telling someone to delete their account would make them kill themselves?

No, that's not what I said. But if you think that's far fetched, then you really are in the dark. People, KIDS, are killing themselves every day over far less...
And others suffer and endure severe mental health issues over less.

You're a bully, BRAB. You can justify or excuse or underestimate your actions as much as you like. I've seen your kind, and I've dealt with the devastation.

You will do what you do. I just hope you never do any real harm.

Delete your account

 

[TheCoach16]

did you just say me telling someone to delete their account would make them kill themselves?

Perhaps not in isolation, BRAB. But it may be the final straw. The final rejection or humiliation. It may just be the final piece of nastiness that person can endure.

It happens.

You genuinely sound like a 15 year old with your over emotive view of the world.

Using your job as a cheap crutch to score intetnet points is pathetic. Your above statment could apply to essentially anything.

Except "delete your account". Right?

The truth is hard to take sometimes BRAB. You can deflect with insults as much as you like. The fact is, you and others like you, are a danger to those who may be in a fragile state. Do with that what you will.

Just a thought. Do you reckon your teammates joking about child sex abuse by priests might be a trigger for someone?

Note the high suicide rates amongst the victims before you answer.

If the bar you've set for a comment that makes someone want to off themselves is "delete your account" then there's probably 100 different triggers a day posted on this board. That's my point, you're setting the bar ridiculously low to make a disingenuous, emotive point at best.

You have to cut him, and the others like him, some slack, Coach.
You see, it's not "them", it's just their "personas".
The real "them" are wonderful caring people but when they put on their personas... well, it's as if they leave the room and someone else comes in and types out their bile leaving the real "them" with a clear conscience.

 

[burningdwarf]

BRAB is pretty much the Bogeyman.

What a revolting unit.

It's probably an interesting point though.

The people that seem to get the most wound up on this board are the ones that can't separate themselves from the board.

Maybe if you created that degree of separation from yourself you'd be a bit more entertaining and you wouldn't be so easily upset. Perhaps worth considering for your own sake.

Never heard someone who carries a persona in the league imply a post here could be a trigger for suicide, for instance. Seems those without that distinction are the most extreme in how they react to posts.

So you are saying that the Sweet FA you is the real you!!!
OMFG!

 

[burningdwarf]

I moved on from that approx 10 minutes later.

 

[BRAB]

So you are saying that the Sweet FA you is the real you!!!

No. Not at all.

I suppose though if you're actually an idiot it's hard to punch up if you're going for a persona. Can't blame you for that.

First of all, you don't need to make me aware of suicide statistics. It's my job to know them....

I'm not setting the bar low, BRAB. It is low...
The internet and social media is, for the most part, a cesspool and haven for cowards and bullies. I didn't set anything anywhere. I just pick up the pieces.

And I've never defended or participated in any sort of discussion about sexual abuse, or death, or any such matters. You're free to examine my posting history. There's quite a lot of garbage that passes as banter on here. From my teammates and from others, including you, and me.

The fact that a person can be triggered by the most "innocuous" or offensive comment doesn't make it any less true or tragic...

And I'll give you credit, you don't stoop to those lows. But if you believe your approach is anything less than bullying, you are ill informed.

If you think the bar is that low, then your comment means nothing. I could say your above comment could cause someone to want to commit suicide and by the bar you've set in the last few posts that'd be true. You've created such a loose definition for what constitutes that kind of comment and by doing so you've diminished the impacts of comments that are actually damaging. Seems a strange thing to do.

I'm glad to know I'm misremembering you defending TL's comments in our previous match thread about child sex abuse. Apologies for accusing you of doing such a thing. A shame your teammates don't share the same opinion on that content.

As I said before, this board is for persona's. Check my posting on other boards, completely different person. I'll admit to harassing people on this board. If that affects their daily life they should leave the board as it isn't for them.

The stuff I did to This Is Anfield wasn't funny and shouldn't have happened. That's the one time I've crossed the line.

Spot on TIA. It's almost a case of plausible deniability.
"It wasn't me. It was my persona"...
