Guys and gals,

Play nice with each other. I'm not asking you all to be BFFs with each other. But I know some of you like to get under the skin of others and some of you like to incite things. Don't bait each other.

I'm very much a hands off guy, but if we start seeing whole threads created with that purpose, we'll start calling people into the principal's office.

Probably ought to lock the Notable Notes thread then too, right?

After all, that is the thread that opened Pandora's Box and was obviously intended to elicit the same types of responses.

I'm working my way down the topic list. No one reported a single thing in that thread so I'm not there yet.

[TheAsianSensation]

Yeah, that one's locked too.

Guys, it's simple. When a thread stops being about a MVC topic and starts being about the individual posters, that's when things start getting locked/deleted.

Go away if you don't like frank and/or unfriendly discussion. This is a sports message board and sports are a simulation of war. The discussion between competing teams' fans should be unfriendly if not downright rude. If you can't handle it, go find a forum more suitable to your childlike sensibilities.

Here is a suggestion:

Good work ASensation. Now, as a moderator, let's fade back into the background. The more you interact with the whiners, the more they will whine. This is a message board for grown adults. Adults in society know they can't whine when their feelings are hurt (unless they call their mommy). The ones whining need to be told that they are most likely in a forum that doesn't coincide with their physical/and or emotional development level.

Now, go back to monitoring for spam, advertising, and/or threats of violence. Thanks again for your efforts in controlling these nuisances.

I enjoy discussing basketball on a basketball message board not reading through 2 or 3 people's pissing match. Go figure.

That's why you skip over the threads you don't want to read. Pissing matches are 99% what sports message boards are all about. Stats are for the newspaper.

Your displeasure (crying) has been noted. Take any other feelings of emotional pain to your mommy.

Thanks,

Interesting.

Why was that thread was allowed to remain unlocked for several days while the others were locked after only a couple of hours?
