He has a hard-on for Nix and it's crazy.Splat, just change your password and enter a bunch of random characters if you need the temptation to stop posting. Then use a browser extension to block ultimateknicks.com from yourself.
what did TT say that was racist? I was not aware of this.
Check the JR Smith being better with Lebron that Melo and the Woodson thread about Chandler...I saw it late last night; Teamball called him out and he refused to respond so I left it alone...
Dudes never leave without drama!!!!! Inflated self worth. WE think we actually make a difference for the knicks!!!!
Basically I don't read Nix because his posts are long. Dude is polite and has his view.
Wron Wron is redundant and really long. I think he cuts and pastes stuff or is really intense with the amount of content and run on thoughts.
To both credit they are passionate and polite.
Splat Amuses me. I dont agree with him on most accounts but he brings some entertainment value to his points.
I don't see how being optimistic or pessimistic is a problem, as long as it's done in a respectful manor. I see both points and respect both observations from nix and splat. But maybe I'm missing something.
Usually hate brings more hate. And love brings more love. But not in this case is which means it must be something more.
Splat and nix are total opposites who try their hardest to convince the world their point of view is correct and everybody who disagrees are stupid. Both guys don't give each other room to be different.
I've read both posters threads plenty of times and nix never came off with personal attacks. Even when he was being attacked. I think we all can learn something from that. If you hit me I'll hit you back. If you hit nix he comes back with the same I love the knicks stuff....unless I'm wrong which wouldn't be the first time.
With that said....I have no issues with splat. Everybody is different for a reason. No need in spending too much energy trying to change someone's views. They may be just as stubborn as you. Which is the case between nix and splat. You guys represent the balance between pessimism and optimism.
It's the personal attacks that cross the line.

I think if someone disabled the caps lock and exclamation point on Nix computer, it would be a gift to the world
But you're right. I don't think he attacks people.
Splat this is damn near the same thread most of us vouched for you on, when Envy made that thread to get you removed. You're better than this, act like it.
I blame the Knicks for all this

Whats interesting is Envy or Eny hasn't posted since his last post in the very thread he created to get rid of Splat. I would like to hear his perspective now, after a few weeks or months have past since he chimed in.
AS THE KNICKS TURN
So we lost both Eny and Splat? What a sad day of UK.
The arguments between them are both inspiring and entertaining.
I'm going to change my username to EnySplat, to commemorate the loss.
I dont believe this is a real person. At this point Im pretty sure Splat is some smart ass ivy league kid doing his sociology dissertation on "the popularity of the negative persona" and is simply using UK forums as his play ground.
I cant remember him talking very much basketball, unless its to directly back up his anti-Phil is a whore/anti-Melo agendas. If your in line with those ideals your posts will be responded with positives and fluff and funny pictures. If your in contrast with those ideals your logic will be faulty. Perhaps you will even hate women and froth at the mouth as I have been accused off. He gained support when called out by another poster and used that to rally his popularity. If you look back at its simply too cunning and calculated to be legit. He was quite methodical in his approach (and his paper is probably due now)
Ultimately it was as I predicted. Splat is just another fart in the wind. Makes some noise, gets some attention, maybe even stinks for awhile, but in the end if there isnt something of substance your just going to drift away.
The only, ONLY reason for Splat to create a thread like this to count how many people say "awww... dont go." (suckers)

uhhhh ohhhh a fart in the wind
I remember a number of legit posters who made "I leaving" or "I'm taking a break" posts. I don't care for them but its not just Splat.
His point was that he knows that going after posters (e.g. Nix) is not allowed by the mods (with reason) and that he needs to go after him because he needs to call him out for perceived stupidity and if that means that he gets nuked or banned or neither then he will have to pay that price.

which is retarded in itself. Perspective. You join a forum on a site dedicated "to pure Knicks love" and cant stop yourself from attacking a guy who's name is nix-luva because all he ever sees is the glass half full. I mean talk about misguided... and its ironic on top of that. Splat might be the most single minded agenda driven poster I have ever read here. The only time he "changed" or "softened" his views were so people could see him doing so... thus the experiment in sociology. As long as your talking about Phil's whoredom or Melo's poor play and selfishness Splat is warmest and fuzziest of posters. I would say his views are more rigid than Nix's by plenty.
How long has splat been here? Has anyone ever met him? But yea.. the farewell thread is telling. Notice the bold above

I don't see it that way but maybe its because I am a hybrid who is not on either side of the fence.
I do see him conversing with Melo lovers/likers without issues. I think that he has more of a problem with skewed logic and nix speaking to us like we are idiots.

What the HECK, FISH?! How can you NOT SEE that the issue here is Nixluva's TONE and STYLE, not his optimism!!! I seriously don't get how you could MISUNDERSTAND this thread!!
Imagine having dozens of sentences like that directed at you every day.

Beautiful post. I remember the thread you were referencing about him. The guy was just a cartoon character, which is why I never thought to take him seriously. I have to admit that I thought he would've fizzled out quicker than he actually did. So kudos to him, I guess.

yea I could see how that might upset YOU, but I have no issue giving it a laugh and MOVING ON.
I mean the only guy I have on ignore here is DK, and thats because I like to the play the "what DK hates about Melo today" game when I click on his posts.
Aside from him I JUST MOVE ON.
Splat's gotten nothing but his own medicine from Nix. I still dont believe he's a real person (as adverstised) but if he is even better.
