So there is more "honor" or "rep" or something in making the WL once, getting rolled, then gutting, as opposed to keeping a team going?
There are times when I look at the Hedgehogs and think, "Y'know, keeping the Hedgehogs at such a consistent level for so long is kinda impressive when you step back and look at it. I mean, he always flames out when he actually GETS into WL, but it's hard to maintain a--"
--and then you post something. And I read it, and I go back to being annoyed by you.
Wise, I think the reason nobody wants to give you credit for what you've accomplished is because you demand way more credit than what you've actually earned, and people over-react to that and respond by not wanting to give you any credit at all.
Seriously. I think if you had just come up into WL again this season and hadn't said anything and somehow made it into the playoffs, people would either stay silent or congratulate you for finally making it. But because you kicked the door in -- again -- and began loudly demanding respect and adoration from everyone in the room -- again -- nobody's going to give you any of that now, even if you make the playoffs.
Yes, "cool kid" cliques are annoying as fuck. But I think sometimes the "uncool" kids need to step back and do some honest self-assessment and figure why they're considered "uncool," and look for legitimate areas of improvement in themselves. You'd be surprised how far that can take you sometimes.

Not that you're gonna pay attention to any of this, of course. WiseIvan's gonna WiseIvan. But I'm in the mood to post something more constructive and less insulting this morning, so there ya go.
While I appreciate the friendly (albeit somewhat insulting) tone you've taken in attempt to help me here. For starters, the "WL against me" thing is incorrect, as there is maybe ~4 peeps that hardcore troll me in this forum, another ~4 random piggybackers that aren't even related to WL but feel inclined to piggyback, and then another couple random owners/coordinators who post random stuff to be funny because they feel the Wise/Hedgehog hating is cool and will get them forum points with a little quip (which is fine tbph)
To be clear, I don't care if I get credit from anyone here for anything. If we won WL I'd be fine with the only "Congrats" thread made being my own. The loud WL forum minority will not stop me from posting, and the "don't post in the forum until you make the playoff" arguments that like 4 peeps have copied from bolick are illogical, stupid, and simply not going to happen, because the very premises they are based on make no sense.
I also implore you to find a single thread from this season where I said anything over the top or inappropriate in this forum. Buncha sociopaths follow me around and morph every comment I make into something crazy in their minds.
In the end, what matters, is that I have 55 players on my team who have trusted me with their thousands of dollars worth of dots for this season, and I will do everything in my power to give a good competitive season and go as far as we can. As long as enough peeps are willing to trust me with their high quality dots to field a team, I will be around with absolute zero regrets in doing so (this was a temperature joke, get it?).
On some level you should ask yourself how a loudmouth scub shit talking asshole like myself (I am a bit of an asshole no doubt) is able to field competitive rosters for 36 WL seasons. Hell, of the Hedgehogs 55 players, there are ~38ish different agents which is almost certainly the highest number on a WL team if there isn't some team here that was designed from rookie to be 55-players/55-agents. As such I obv much be doing something right if I can jedi mind trick that many different dpride multi's tbh.
tl;dr thx nov but you donno what your talking about if you think I desire you/bolick/lhf's respect or permission to post in this forum. Haterz gon' terz
