Hey Fellas,

I've never had any problems with him personally, but I just wanted everyone to be on the heads up with this guy. He's just in his twenties and is a real small timer, but loves to stir up shit everywhere. He just signed up today and has only two posts, but he has been kicked out of and ruined more forums than I can even recount. I can remember him saying at another forum that he logs on just to fight on the internet, and his avatar is him flipping everyone off if that says anything.

I know this place doesn't like to boot anyone, but be on the lookout with this guy....

yep, he posted in the thread i started, "my first public service thread...". his post was a bit confusing, not sure what he meant. thanks for the heads up.

SBR_John · 06-04-07, 08:34 PM

Let's give him a fresh chance.

For whatever reason i've seen lunatic posters at one forum and then they catch a groove somewhere else and are transformed. May not happen in this case but it does happen.

BigBollocks · 06-04-07, 08:38 PM

This place is by more helpful and information-filled than anywhere on the net, and is the only place I post anymore. You would hope this place could help anyone change their tune, but I know of three forums offhand that he's been booted from. I wouldn't be surprised if you see a lot of people come in here and re-iterate what I'm saying....

BuddyBear · 06-04-07, 08:44 PM

his bet size is irrelevant. From what I noticed at TheRx he is well-respected for his insights and writeups. I personally look forward to reading what he has to say.

Let's at the very least give him a chance....

onlooker · 06-04-07, 10:28 PM

He gets a fresh start here, and is welcome to contribute to the forum.

Thanks for the heads up Big, and we will keep a eye on him. Its hard to get suspended here, but it happens from time to time.

how do you get suspended on this forum? sounds like an interesting story. do tell.

onlooker · 06-04-07, 10:33 PM

Just don't abuse the simple rules of no shilling, PM abusing, scamming other members, etc. But of coarse warnings are given, so you have chances to clean it up before the button is pushed.

If you want to flame someone, take it to the Private area.

The HG · 06-04-07, 10:35 PM

Ok, I'll be on the lookout for him. I will bring my Jedi Extra-Sensory Multi-Level Shim Sham Shimmy posting ability which many of you have already been privy to in various forms, and I should be able to handle him. No guarantees of course but I do what I do well, and I will give it my top-level effort. If he is too much for me to handle I will be very impressed indeed.

Sounds good HG. I will be watching from the Jedi Temple with Dan.

BigBollocks · 06-04-07, 10:50 PM

LOL, you fellas are too much. They need an SBR moderator reality show I'm convinced (with JJ included of course)

Just so its clear ... while we do work together, Ganchrow and Ganchrow HG are two separate and distinct people.

BuddyBear · 06-04-07, 10:58 PM

I think the TheGreatOne is the only poster to ever be banned from here.....and even that was reluctantly.

Yep. HG = Hardly Ganchrow.

gridironguy · 06-04-07, 11:40 PM

I have seen MISTAFLAVA's posts at another sports board, and even interacted with him about some sports/picks.

He is pretty cool in my book, and very knowledgeable about sports as well. Give the guy a chance and I believe you'll like what you read in his posts..

moses millsap · 06-05-07, 12:18 AM

His name is Phil D. I wouldn't be surprised if he tried to build a following for his forum/tout interests via ghosts and pms, since that's what he has done repeatedly in the past.

I would bet money on it. That said if you keep an eye on him and ignore those ridiculous Monopoly money type of units he pretends to play, the write-ups used to be fairly good. Certainly will invite participation and build excitement amongst the more square readers of a forum.

I think your correct sir. He's an old school poster I believe from over there. I'm not real familiar with his postings though, accept for rumors that I have read. So he does come on to this forum with a clean slate as far as I'm concerned, and will welcome him

Senator7 · 06-05-07, 01:58 AM

Some of you guys are acting like he would be the first annoying poster at SBR.

Even if this guy is a dumbass, he would hardly be setting a precedent.

I'll be giving him the benefit of the doubt along with a clean slate.

SBR_John · 06-05-07, 02:59 AM

I kind of liked TheGreatOne. Why was he banned? I remember he had a bunch of rants but some good posts too.

tblues2005 · 06-05-07, 03:41 AM

I would be fair and give him a chance and see how he does here.. like SBRJohn has said, give him a chance and we all hope we get to enjoy this person.

I think Natural Light wa banned. I'm sure there are others.

jjgold · 06-05-07, 06:08 AM

I am not worried, I am like 85-0 with poster fights, I can drive anyone off any forum if I really wanted to. I guess I am a sleeping giant now, mellow but could snap if pushed hard.

Mudcat · 06-05-07, 08:05 AM

Before theRX he was a regular at Covers. At first he was mainly a trouble-maker whose main purpose was accumulating a high post count through a lot of single emoticon posts.

For a long time he was part of the all-touts-are-scum mindset. Then he became a tout! He was known for his long detailed write-ups.

It's important to remember that long detailed write-ups don't automatically mean you're making money. That was the case with Flava. He always lost money. It got kind of funny. I mean, I didn't pay attention to his picks but some of the guys had some fun with him. He was a truly horrible capper and he couldn't sell his picks for 5 bucks.

At one point he organized a NCAA bracket pool and stiffed a bunch of posters for about $400. For awhile he claimed poverty and had a big sob story.

Eventually he left in disgrace. I can't remember if he was banned or just chased away. He couldn't post without being attacked as a STIFF and a hypocrite from all sides.

Why he would still use the name MistaFlava is beyond me.

Giving him PM privileges would be a recipe for trouble.

slacker00 · 06-06-07, 06:29 AM

I hope he sticks around and mixes things up a little. Firing up some energy will be entertaining, if not enlightening. For better or worse the SBR "inner circle" of old-guard salty veterans eventually puts down the riff raff. Let's let JJGOLD handle this fire if it flares up, it's been a while since we've seen a good JJGOLD mano-e-mano.

RealMistaFlava · 06-18-07, 07:28 AM

Alright, here is what is going on here.

1) I am the real MistaFlava

2) Some asshole has recently attacked me and my character at theRx forum for some shitty stuff I did in the past.

3) The guy who created my username and is posting as Mistaflava on this forum has a complete obessesion with me, has been following me around different forums and im not too sure what he is trying to do.

4) I had not heard of this place until some of the guys at theRx started asking me if I posted at SBR at which point I saw that the guy not only stole my username but he also stole my avatar.

5) Anyways, you all seem like a nice bunch of people but the mother****er who is posing as MistaFlava is a psychotic stalker who like I said has followed me around for quite some time and seems to be pissed off at me for who knows what.

6) If you don't believe me, PM me and see me post your email of a few words here to prove its really me. There are some really ****ed up people out there.

GL this summer...just thought I would come in here and clear the air...please feel free to delete my username.

RealMistaFlava · 06-18-07, 07:35 AM

I also noticed that the guy steals my writeups from theRx and posts them here...not sure what to make of that but to be honest, I don't really care.
