Dwight Drane Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 It's one thing to take on an extreme position. It's another thing to take said extreme position after two complete games in a player's career. It's yet another thing to take said extreme position after two games when you are quoted calling said player a "player" (as in: really good) after the first game....That will get you piled on faster than anything here... 448747[/snapback] I can understand that. I am concerned because I went back in his profile to look at his posts and didn't see much of anything that could get him banned. It must have been removed. I'm pretty much a lurker, so I wasn't privy to any public posting worth getting banned, that's why I was concerned. Pile on if you want, but if you think the guy is an idiot then just ignore him...sort of like many are doing to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess McNally will make him an All-pro by just sprinkling some ballsweat on him however.<<<<< As for the other stuff, the board is owned by and the creation of SDS. He does the work, along with the mods, who do a fine job. Decisions such as banning, etc. are theirs, and theirs alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why even have it viewed at all? Eliminate lurkers. Have an application process... Then I am fine with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only suggestion that I have recently made is in the pinned thread above where I came out against a rating system, and SDS was asking for feedback.

The problem arises when people think the rules only apply to everyone else and they feel that the rules do not apply to them. When you register, you agree to abide by these rules or face disciplinary action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would see it as more consistent if everybody had to register... If you want to post then post... If you don't then don't post. But viewing by unregistered lurkers would be a no-no. Kinda like the ballpark... Pay (register) to see what is in. Ex: Wrigley still gets agreements from the rooftops? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have said many a moronic thing over the past few years and have not been banned. It is when you get insulting, disparaging and down right repulsive on a regular basis that SDS lays down the law. Membership to this board is by the users choice and it is hir/her prerogative to decide if the boundaries are too tight or not - leave if they don't conform to your norms. And I am fine with that. This board is excellent and as someone else mentioned there must be some S&M fetish in all of us that we get bashed yet come back drooling for more.
