It's not a matter of posting "nice things about opposing teams," it's about the fact that sometimes this place just keep beating a horse long past its expiry date, painting all Canucks fans with a wide brush and attacking the actual posters as opposed to the team. Do I think it's great that they come here to troll? No, hence I call them out, but I am explaining why they're doing it and for most, it's not cause they want to gloat.

Except if that sort of stuff hurt my feelings, I'd have left a long time ago. I get annoyed when I see posts saying all Canucks fans are idiots, or that someone hopes all Canucks fans or players would just die, or someone laughing at a player's ruptured testicle.

And hate away, Champ. Like I said, there is a rivalry but some people go above and beyond what is acceptable. And this season there has been a lot more of those people than in previous years. I have never "called for back-up," and I rarely, if ever go to another forum with a beef with a current one (an exception being recently where I was directly asked). I don't want trolls coming around any forum I post, they bring down the quality of the forum and that is not something I want.

They didn't start showing up until December/January when the Canucks went on a roll. I've felt like this place has been going above and beyond to piss me off since last June.
