This thread is nothing but clique-bait.
This raises its head every few months, that those who post the most outlandish opinions and statements are unfairly dealt with by those who have a more level headed demeanour.
Just like in normal life, people are judged not just by what they have to say, but their attitudes and how they present their thoughts. If people are going to post c*ck sure definitives that aren't fact, and react unreasonably to news with outrageous comments and then subsequently make posts completely contrary to previous opinion, then they are going to be called out.
The fact that someone apologises or makes an admission that they might have been wrong or overreacted, doesn't make that behaviour go away or be forgotten. Sure it'll be thrown back at you from time to time. You made the comments on a public forum, so you have to own it and suck up the criticisms.
If people are so sensitive about being reminded of what they have said/done in the past, maybe don't type it out and post it online.

Sizematters displays a general garment and you claim it is cut to fit ... how interesting!
If BigFooty used the Stonecutters ranking system, I'd be Number Two.

I think the only fair and reasonable way to judge any individual's contribution to the Lions board is their SRR quotient.
Simpsons Reference Ratio = no of posts made divided by no of Simpsons references in those posts multiplied by the square of the average comedic value of those references times the average relevance of those references to the topic at hand (with a value of one representing perfect relevance).

I hereby declare myself terrible.

Aish.
The issue for me is that you can't divide by zero (total number of Simpsons posts) ... so I think I'm actually invalid...

Maybe we get a notional 1 to save the system ... I imagine they do it in cricket so if I make 10 not out my average is 10 not /error/ ... ?
I think they go runs per match for average not runs per wicket.

By virtue of the fact that you just obliquely referenced the Simpsons, your reference value will no longer be zero so it's all good.
Anyway, you provide training reports of the highest quality so you get a papal dispensation for your lack of Simpsons quotes.

Thanks ... I thought it was per wicket because it was the only way I could make a tail ender's high score of 4 and average of 10 make sense ...

Correct.
It is per wicket.
If you never get out .... you don't have an average.
(no Simpsons Reference post .... No Simpsons Reference Ratio)
as you can see lots of levels potentially below terrible. i would go for horrendous.

Based on what I was just told, this post counts as a reference.

Yeesh.
It's clear the Suns have a lot of problems, but I can't see what good these comments do for anyone.

Doesn't bode well for the Suns fans who are hopeful of luring Lachie Weller home.

Yep he could learn from his good mate - Mitch Robinson how to do media after signing a new contract and how to do this with class. Mitch didn't mention carlton in his interview. Different circumstances between the two players I know and yes I did use Mitch Robinson and class in the same sentence, but Mitch's interview just knocks what Mav said in his interview out of the ball park (if he indeed said those things...)
