Ohh there it is again. Guys don't have your opinion about how anything 49er related can't possibly be wrong so they are a fan of another team. Got it.

You do know that fans CAN criticize and not like certain players or coaches and that doesn't make them any less of a fan than you.

The problem is when the same people come in with idiotic takes and they talk in circles when their trash narratives are questioned with logic.

drell has to move the goal posts because he argues in bad faith. That's why people call him a Rams fan. His own logic is painting Kyle as the better HC so then he just reverts back to the "well McVay won a SB and Kyle didn't"

Even you are basically defending Kyle as the coach.

Not that I care because I'm not sensitive like others, but isn't that the definition of "inciting" in this forum ? You send me a PM almost every week about how I'm on the brink of getting a TO because I hurt someone's feelings or other posters are getting upset on my takes, but when they do it to some of us your response is "well you guys deserve it because of your idiotic takes". Love the hypocrisy…

There's no hypocrisy, your takes on here are what's being attacked. You're lucky you get those PMs and not actual timeouts so maybe respond to them if you have an issue instead of bringing it here.

No issues here sir 🫡

It's true. You've done it to me too.

Who cares what his "takes" are. This is a message board and someone is free to say anything they want as long as they keep it between the lines no? Getting warnings, timeouts or even bans is absurd if all the guy did was have a different opinion.

Guys in here can say whatever they want, any insults at all and it's brushed under the rug because they all say the same thing but as soon as someone with different opinions does the same they get warnings or a "time out"

It's 💯 hypocritical.

No move or decision by Shanny will ever be wrong... just like Shanny, they will find a way to point the finger away from Shanny...

I can no longer wonder, I am more convince now than ever that these Shannanigans rather have Shanny as the HC than get a Super Bowl ring NOT coached by Shanny.

Once again all you guys have are these ridiculous hyperbole laced takes that nobody has ever said.

What you can't seem to grasp is most people believe the odds of getting a SB are better with Kyle Shanahan than unknown future HC possibilities.

How many SBs did we win after Seifert through Shanahan?

If you can guarantee me we win a SB with whomever takes over for Shanahan then i'll say fire him right now.

But none of you can guarantee it. So deal in reality.

SEIFERT - as bad as a coach he was, the guy won 2 Super Bowls... One was because Walsh left a good team becoming great.... while the other was ALL because of Prime Time.

Reality is your HC is 0 and 2 in the Super Bowl. .. and reality is, IF our owner wants to win one, then he'll get rid of Shanny... John Harbaugh just got let go, do you know why? - IT'S TIME FOR A CHANGE !!

AGAIN - Shanny may win one, but it won't happen here ...

Just an HONEST question, how many more season do YOU give Shanny before you let him go?

Shanahan won't win one. He's not a good head coach. Maybe as an OC he has a chance. And I don't think other owners would give him the type of leash dope Jed has given him. The Yorks only care about selling tickets. They're quite content with blowouts against the Cardinals and Titans because it'll sell out the stadium vs Seattle and countless fans will buy black out jerseys, even if the team gets man handled. He won't hold Kyle accountable but at some point Kyle himself will burn out and then trash some other franchise…

Just go away and stick to the Rams forum.

See what I mean? A different opinion means he isn't a 49ers fan yet that poster got no warning at all I'd assume.

No, they've just been relentlessly spamming the board longer with the same tired, repetitive, factless takes. I say this as someone who at times has been pissed at Kyle and wondered if we should move on, but when taking a beat and objectively evaluating coaching in the NFL, he's one of the best.

If there was a big group of Niners fans that watched every game at someone's house or a bar, but there was a guy who literally every game, every other play, and every day during the week was texting the group to moan about the same thing over and over, the group would stop inviting that person or find a new bar without telling them.

You can't do that with a message board. Best you can do is warn that person as a way of letting them know they're THAT guy. When you say the same things 1,000 times and then play the victim, don't be surprised when people grow tired.

Again, who cares what a guy says or how often he says it. This is a message board and he's free to say anything he wants.

There's one large group of people who drink the red Koolaide and say nobody on this team can do any wrong no matter what and it's a moral sin to criticize them. If you do you are called out for not being a fan and are told to cheer for another team.

Then there is another small group of people
who use a message board to vent because they realize after almost a decade of losing important games and coming in 2nd place that maybe not everything is all roses and 2nd place isn't good enough.

Buddy, that poster (along with others) has been trolling this forum with the same repetitive b******t before you even signed up to the WZ.

There's a MASSIVE difference between having a legit honest objective debate…one with nuance and each other having the balls to admit their take is wrong or emotionally fueled at some point….vs whatever crap ya'll keep tossing in here. Criticizing is fine when warranted. If you think he sucks because he lost a couple SBs, fine. Then apply that across the board to every coach and player…if you can't do that, then you're a hypocrite plain and simple. Makes your point null and void imo.

the whole difference of an opinion, when it's in bad faith, is a chicken s**t scapegoat move….If you said I think the world is flat for the past 5yrs over and over and that's "your opinion" I'm gonna tell ya you're an idiot and here's why.

I'll' never understand the point of rooting yourself in one take no matter what. At that point, you don't want to have a discussion, you just want to hate, wait for a response, then play victim… I for one don't want to talk to people like that. It's draining and makes everyone dumber. Seems to be the theme of SM.

You're right it's a message board and when you say dumb s**t over and over, the response you're gonna get over and over might not be what you want it to be. Shocking I know.

look if you or the half a dozen other posters don't want to have an honest objective conversation about it…then just say that. Just say my takes are emotionally fueled, I refuse to look at it objectively and no one will EVER change my mind.

If you're expecting fans to "drink the kool-aid" ya'll are pouring, I got news for you…overwhelmingly that's not gonna happen.

You have no idea what the PMs were about. Every few weeks you guys start crying in here instead of responding to PMs if you have issues. There is an easy way to get a hold of all mods if you have a problem with me.

But since you two like to air this stuff out in public then I'll address this again.

This is a 49ers forum. Our job is to keep conversations going without restricting opinions good or bad. However the majority of the people posting here are 49er fans. So while nobody is expected to believe the team can do no wrong IF a negative opinion is made about the team the expectation is to add context, facts and/or proof to the statement/opinion being made.

If you provide that it leads to good discussion. If people come in to just post about things that are straight up lies or make ridiculous takes with nothing of substance or logic behind them that typically leads to people getting worked up.

I don't want to have to give fans who love this team timeouts or warnings because they couldn't help themselves respond to a throwaway comment that had nothing to it.

So yes...if you're going to make negative points the expectation is you have substance behind it otherwise I'll just start assuming people are trolling and looking to incite the majority of this forum.

And lastly...we don't broadcast who gets warnings or timeouts. You thinking that people can say whatever as long as they support the team is simply not the case. Personally I've had to give out more warnings to posters I agree with than you guys. Partly because they're responding to those nonsense posts...

This is straight up lying.

I've literally made several posts in the last few days pointing out my issues with the front office and Kyle's control of the draft. NY and I have gone back and forth on several moves the 49ers made he disagreed with. Sometimes I agreed with him, sometimes not. But whatever his opinions are he brings reasoning and logic behind it. I may not agree with his takes all the time but he doesn't just throw out hindsight based arguments and then says "I don't know how these guys have a job"...when they're 12-5 in the playoffs after an injury plagued season.

Oh and FYI venting on here won't change anything about the team. No matter how many times you scream for someone to be fired it won't matter a lick to Jed York. Maybe try twitter? At least there you may be able to get through to him.

This is a load of crap and you know it.

If you fit in with the crowd and all say the same things then you're fine. If you have any other opinion and criticize in the slightest you aren't a 49er fan. It's as simple as that.

Negative points = trolling. That sums it up.

It's not lying. Not in the slightest. There are MULTIPLE posts in just the past few pages and all that poster says is "Go cheer for another team", "Go to the Rams or Seahawks forum", "You're not a 49er fan" and etc. and that is allowed.

That right there is the definition of spamming or inciting and it's allowed. But say something negative and you get banned.

Quick how many timeouts or warnings did I give you?

Negative points with no substance to them, which have been repeated over and over again sure smells like trolling or spam, whichever you prefer.

It most certainly isn't a conversation starter or new discussion point.

Team is 12-5 with some of our most expensive and best players out for the year or missing a bunch of games. The take of "How do these guys even have a job" is simply not in any way shape or form a real take to make. It smells like trolling. Cuz if it's not trolling that doesn't speak well to your understanding of the NFL.

I've argued with just about every poster in here at some point lol. People I would consider very insightful and whose opinion I value, to the people that are straight up full of s**t. I don't discriminate.

one thing in common in those conversations is I try to bring facts and logic to my stance…sometimes I'm right and sometimes I'm wrong. I do try to admit when I got it wrong because if I can't be honest with myself, then why should I expect others to be?

End of the day this is just a freaking football forum lol, but man overwhelmingly SM has turned into a cesspool of bad faith takes and s**t opinions. It's full of people who have no ambition to be honest with themselves, yet want everyone else to be. So many hypocrites and grifters who don't want objective discussion that leads to good positive stuff, but rather create negativity for engagement. Ugh

Can you not read? Vent away just give people something behind the venting. Examples, facts, logic/reasoning.

And yes those posts are allowed. Once again this is a 49ers forum. The threads are here to have discussions. As long as personal attacks aren't included we're not going to dish out warnings or timeouts for back and forth interactions.

It's not complicated. Feel free to post any venting you want - just put in your reasoning and make it rational.

12-5 team in the playoffs with impact injuries all over and a take of "These guys should be fired, I'm shocked they have a job still" or your exact wording is not rational in the least bit.

And once again...you didn't get a warning or timeout from me. So what exactly are you crying about?

Now if we can get to Kyle Shanahan that would be great. If you have any more things to discuss with how I or we mod, then send a PM.
