Anyway, let's read what these hilarious pansies have to say. It was really fun, TBH 
Not sure what happened to it. Now its just a bunch of trolls, I remember when the place was good back in the day.

I wouldn't say cringe, but that place is so ing negative and depressing.

Thank God for this place, that site is horrid.
[]shord143 11 points
Yeah I stay as far away from it as I can

A lot of immature people over there. All I see over there is "tbh this" "tbh that" it gets annoying.
[]DapDaGenius 1 point
I actually like the recurring joke of "tbh" over there, but I think it is overused.

Ever since Kori & LJ have become inactive, it's really gone to . Slomo tries to run it, but isn't very good at it. It's a shame, because I've met some really great people from that site. Honestly, I'd say that 60% of the traffic is from multiple accounts who just troll for no reason.

It's just over run by trolls because the original mods left. In its peak I would actually say it had better content and discussion than we have on reedit because there were a lot of great knowledgable members. When mods lightened up, more trolls emerged, the best posters left, and soon all that was left was trash. I lurk occasionally, but it's mostly about Parker being fat and washed up or calling each other s. Thank Duncan for reddit.

Spurstalk used to be fantastic. Now it's absolutely terrible.

You mean you don't enjoy clicking between Malik's TP bashing and aapsolic's Kawhi mancrush?
[]CryHav0c 3 points
Hahaha. It's really sad how they just let the trolls takeover that site and insult or berate long standing members to leave. I wish more of the good ones showed up here.

It's such an awful site, mainly because there is very little actual conversations about basketball, and most of it is bashing on whoever had a bad couple games.
Manu played poorly in G6 of the finals, and for an entire year every single post had to devolve into Manu bashing insanity and people wishing he'd retire or get injured and be out for the year (!!!). This year it's full on "lets bash on Tony I hope Pop trades him for a 2nd rounder"
It's ridiculous! I get not liking certain players, I get being disappointed in certain players. I don't understand the constant need to bash some of the Spurs' best players in franchise history to the point that it's the only conversation being made.

There is so much hate directed at Spurs players on that forum. Not sure why anyone goes there anymore.
[]Axamander 3 points
The trolling there is some of the most pathological on the interwebs. There is a cabal of a few people and they each have over a dozen accounts, share them, and systematically deceive creating different personalities for them and playing them out. Kori and timvp are still there they just have their own trolls too.

What makes me cringe is the post game radio program where drunk people call in criticizing the Spurs...

Where can I hear this at

Assuming you're in the San Antonio area, 1200 WOAI after the games.

I love that we have reddit, but that other forum spurstalk has so much potential... instead 90% of it are run by trolls posting garbage every day about how much they hate Tony Parker. Seriously, bunch of no lifers over there. I used to think there was no one who moderates it very much, but now I believe the primary troll there IS the moderator with different usernames to troll with. His name is apsolic_9, and the dude posts garbage everyday.

If you want one more place for Spurs discussion, I suggest the comment sections over at pounding the rock.
[]rattatatouille 1 point
PtR's comment section is not much better place than SpursTalk.
[]Alphadestrious 4 points
And the overusage of TBH

....tbh
[]excoriator 5 points
But if you enjoy unrelated NSFW graphics with your Spurs discussion, it's hard to come up with an alternative place that has more of them.
[]crs7117 3 points
not sure if we'll ever know, but hopefully all those people stay there
[]TimDuncanTheAlmighty 5 points
Different community, different rules, different people used to different things.
Let it be.
[]BassQueen1992 5 points
Place is seriously toxic.
[]Belgradebanshees 2 points
agree...5-10% of solid content not worth 90% of absolute
[]subtankr 2 points
I'm an original member there. Have Thousands upon thousands upon thousands of posts, and earned a few Spurs under my name.
I left that place. They don't moderate it. The most obscene and rude things are posted there. Half naked chicks, and every insult you can imagine in the next post.
It's a maturity thing. They don't have it.
[]InstinctBlu3s 2 points
You forgot to mention the contingent of people who are anti-Kawhi. Cough Hater and The Great Yacht are two of them. Trolls who have nothing to do but criticize the Spurs, I don't think they are even "Spurs" fans.
[]Agape825[S] 1 point
I don't even think they're being real about hating on Kawhi. Theyre doing it to counter the anti Parker fans. Those guys are the real trolls.
[]texasphotog 2 points
It has always been pretty bad. I was an original poster and never go there. Always been a haven of the immature (including Kori and LJ) and others that were just trashy people.
[]TXJKU 1 point
I forgot my username there a long time ago
[]rattatatouille 1 point
The administration has essentially given up on moderating the place.
The only posters worth a damn there are Bruno, ace3g, and a couple more.
[]doublepint 3 points
It was never moderated to begin with - it was their 'schtick' over SpursReport.
[]subtankr 1 point
Exactly.
[]RascalRandal 1 point
It's sad that it's gone down the ter. They used to have quality posts when Kori and LJ were still active.
[]BrianDawkins 1 point
What is that?
[]Sweaty s 0 points
There's about 9 layers of trolling going on there at this point. At this point, the anti-porker, kiwi, pro Manu, etc player fan groups are all self aware parodies perpetuating a shtick because that's just the cool thing to do now there. I hate to use the term "casual" but unless you really delve deep into spurs talk, go into the archives and know the community there, you really don't know what's going on.
Yeah there's a lot of bull , yeah open registration kind of ed things up. But for in depth actual basketball discussion about x's and o's, it really does far surpass reddit. And frankly I think the lack of political correctness is a refreshing change from reddit and it's hyper sensitivity to Homer opinions and talk.
[]tesseractive 1 point
If you delve deep, there's still some good stuff there. But the signal to noise ratio is terrible -- way worse than it used to be. I have better things to do than sift through all the obnoxious garbage to get to the good bits.
I mean, if you enjoy that kind of environment, that's different. But personally, I'd rather visit PtR. Lots of really good bits and a more pleasant environment.
[]Sweaty s 2 points
Yeah about a 1:3 signal to noise ratio there nowadays. Been browsing st for a while so some of the nostalgia from the Timvp days/SPAM hayday is still there
[]Agape825[S] 1 point
I mean... i dont know how that could be refreshing. You read stuff there long enough, youre gonna feel like you lost some brain cells. I can't believe you can tolerate that crap.
[]Sweaty s 0 points
There's a lot of bull . I feel like giving myself a lobotomy reading /r/nba comment threads with all the stroking so it's cool to see people just tell it like it is without fear of down votes
[]Agape825[S] 1 point
Dang. Maybe you're one of the trolls over there.
[]Sweaty s 1 point
This is my honest take on it. I've lurked st for a while and made an account when they just recently opened registration. I don't get the need to try to ad hominem, offbase anyway.
