I still like interacting with certain posters. Never said I didn't.
But traffic is clearly down. You're right that from the poster perspective that you should just ignore the losers. However, not everyone is going to do that. Some people are just gonna find places to post/interact where there aren't losers. That's just how a free market is going to work for this type of stuff. If you go into the Welch/JC bet thread, you can clearly see several people chose not to do that.
From the site perspective, you need to either A. neuter bad posters or B. ban them. Otherwise you get a situation like the OS in early October when the sports news/events cycle is fairly robust and you can't get a thread to reach the 2nd page.
So if you want SBR/twitter/group texts/whatever to lap you, you just tell your good posters to "ignore" others. If you want your business to thrive, you neuter your bad posters.
Good content breeds more good content. Bad content breeds more bad content.
The only place I interact with the yellow teethed loser is in the Rubber Room. I don't enter his threads anywhere else on this forum and don't engage with him anywhere else.
There's also the point that he welched on a bet within 24 hours of losing that bet and don't know about you but on a site like this, that kind of move is going to create an uproar. And for the action to be tolerated, it made it worse. That was the beginning of the end for Greenwelcher. There's a lot of guys that hate him but that was the last straw.
Don't know how you can defend a guy with no integrity. We're talking about a guy that goes all over the forum to rate threads with 1 star. Do you realize how unbelievably pathetic that is?
Even down here in the Rubber Room he's lying. Makes up bets he says Pats has made, lies about other posters. He just makes shit up. If it were just me saying it that's one thing but there are dudes all over this site saying the same thing.
He gave me a dot 
He throws monopoly units around like it's nothing.
