Ok guys,

I understand he is not popular.
I understand he posts a lot of links (which he got better now and posts clicky or the article here too)

And I understand not many people like him.

but I really can't understand people bashing him because he puts posts on here.

he does not disrespects anyone here.
People have a choice to open (or not) his posts.

but to post in each of his posts something just to dimminish him, or to curse at him, i don't think it's really appropriated.

heck, he at least posts something here. Most people don't. So I don't see how it is that bad that he does something.

Basically, back off the dude a little.

I, for one, do appreciate him putting something here that I might not have read somewhere else.
Can't you guys get past the fact that it was him who posted and just discuss the post at hand???

IMO you are sh***ing the hand that feeds you.

Everything he posts is copied and pasted from another site. He doesn't write anything at all.

Roni I see where you are coming from but at the same time its not like he puts alot of time into what he is doing. Anyone can copy and paste an article from another site, but we don't because there is no point in it. If you are going to post another persons article atleast comment on it from your own perspective and ask for others opinions. Get involved in the discussions here.

As far as I am concerned he is just another Spammer....

while I agree with you, most don't.
I do sometimes if I find something interesting.
And it is frustrating when you share something you think it is interesting and comes someone else and curses at you.

The thing is: you dont have to read what he posts. so if you think his posts are all things you know, then don';t even waste time opening it.
but responding only to offend him, IMO is just wrong.

he never (to my knowledge) offended anyone (unless it is a response to someone elses offense).
So why are people always to mean to him? If it was one of 2, but it seems people in general are losing respect for him, and I really can't see the reason.

So you prefer these Message Boards to be dead than people posting what they think is interesting (be it or not)?

Like I said i relate it to SPAM..... So do you like it when they just start poting stuff about sunglasses and purses????


Like I said If he is going to post the stuff he does the least he could do is put something of his own in it.


Like hey guys I cam across thi article, what do you think of it. I think it........


How hard would that be?

well, while I see your point, I still think it is too harsh to call him names just for posting.

After all, he is NOT posting about sunglasses.
It's been always about MMA on a MMA board.

And many times, this place is DEAD and people still bashes him for posting something...

I completely agree with you Roni. I'm really not in to the bashing/belittling behavior exhibited by a lot of FN users. Even if you feel that a user is deserving of being called a name, you don't prove yourself the better person by engaging. It is especially troubling when a conversation here further degrades to the "I bet you wouldn't say that to my face" level. While that sort of statement is accurate in one sense (people undoubtedly will be more respectful of others where they lack anonymity), it is ultimately just brutish and self defeating.As you've pointed out, I've never seen him post anything offensive. I certainly don't think that he should have to come up with anything overly profound in order to avoid being attacked. Has anyone ever bothered to ask him what he thinks? If so, has he responded?

I know yoda has called him out numerous times about his posts. And even these posts should be able to help him out.


I have never called the guy names but like I said earlier what he posts is no different than what the Spammers do.

Lets see. My questions about the snake guy.

I got to say he is prob ripping off some other site that does that. Cause some sites not mma ones just post stories from other news papers and sports blogs.

Like Ben Maller has a website. He reads threw all the new paper websites and he posts the good stories on his website. Pretty much what people pay espn for being an insider.He will get lower websites that rip him off and never credit the middle man.

But snakerattle has 4 guys visiting his site. How is he making a profit?

August 5, 2010  07:16 PM ET

He has some good links but that website is going nowhere.

I wouldn't be shocked if he spams other mma forums.

I don't like spammers. If your website is that good you don't need to spam for views.

while I agree with you, you have to agree that he is not selling anything, nor he is ever begging to go to his website.
If anything, instead of keeping the posts in there, he puts it here which is convenient.

And it is also MMA related, so I really don't get all the hate.

I can see why people don't like that he doesn't contribute much to the conversation, but he at least gives the topic.

How do we know he is not using a bot to post this stuff?

August 5, 2010  09:31 PM ET

Roni, I respect you and I know you are coming from a good place with this.

But I save my pity for those that I feel deserve it.
Snake brings nothing of value to this site whatsoever. He spams for his own horrible website which just reprints bad articles from other sites.
Terrible topic choices for the most part - and garbled presentation of them.
He doesn't' participate in discussions. And when he does participate, it's gibberish or he just calls people UFC nut-huggers.
He's also a brutal plagiarist who doesn't listen to feeback when people go out of their way to try and help him with links or videos and whatnot.
Eff him. That's my opinion

I prefer the guys who spam with fake Armani shoes froe Vietnam. They probably don't get a lot of job satisfaction, but at least there is some purpose to their postings. And at least the mods occasionally delete those useless guys.

But on your advice Roni, I will stop visiting Snake's terrible threads. I'll be one less person to pile that idiot going forward.

Thanks Roni.

and what if he is though? it's not like he post something about selling sneakers.
It has always been about MMA. so what is the problem?

basically you are complaining that he does not participate. the why bash him? he's not putting his view.
And as this is MMA related, think of it as some bot that adds new MMA topics for us to talk about.
What is the harm in it? I at keast appreciate the new topics
