    Rather than a fear of being banned, a poster's motivation should be a desire to present him/herself in a way which garners respect. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif Yeah, that can be annoying when it's apparent the person didn't try. But I don't see it as a significant issue on this board. My tongue-biting comes when I see the plethora of outfield threads on the Major League Forum. They might not start out as duplicates, but as soon as they get rolling, most of them end up being duplicates.

    I know I'm coming in a week after the fact, but since we have an education effort going on and the thread's still active... On one hand, the items quoted violate site guidelines in regard to the word filter. On the other hand, we have the filter getting in the way of legitimate discussion. I guess that's a bridge we have to cross occasionally. The solution to this particular situation is easy, though. The filter accepts 'cockfighting' just fine as a closed compound. (A Google search indicates that both spellings are widely used; reference.com prefers the closed compound.) I'll go back and edit those posts. -------------------- EDIT: In the case where the filtered word needed to be used by itself, 'rooster' worked just fine as a synonym.

    It should have taken. I took a look and what you describe seems right. I'd try again and report back.

    ezBoard grants ownership to Brian. If you'd like, you can start an ezBoard and become an owner, too. There isn't really much that ezBoard does that would overlap what Brain does. I do seem to recall that one time, a poster was banned by exBoard before Brian could get to him. I'd assume he was spamming multiple ezBoards.

    endaround, do you mean 70% of the average? 70% below the average would seem quite low.

    I like the episode where Frances Bavier (Andy Griffith's Aunt Bee) leads a gang of outlaws. In the end, a fight ensues. Tonto closes the show by saying, "Next time I get easy job. I fight man and you fight woman!"

    If one line is all it takes to write a valid and useful response, that's fine. The problem is when people think they're Rodney Dangerfield (and aren't). As an example, there was a Wes Helms thread over the winter that had three Krispy Kreme one-liners by the same person within the first ten posts of the thread. I don't think anyone's looking to eliminate wisecracks completely. As hawing mentioned above, moderation is the key. In my case, if I smell a one-liner coming on, I'd guess that about two thirds of the time, I decide it really isn't funny, and it doesn't get posted. I'd define 'serial' one-lining two ways: The same person posting this stuff over and over. Responding to one person's one-liner with more one-liners, creating a competition of sorts.Big Reed, I think the more appropriate analogy would be to compare forum members to guests in Brian's house, with staff and moderators being the servants. But if you want to use the customer analogy, we're trying to maintain what the 'customers' wanted back in 2001 when this site was started. I tend to agree with you about the 'stupid' pictures, although I'd have chosen an adjective like 'silly' instead to avoid the condescension. In small doses, they're probably fine. If they comprise the majority of a person's posts or if they instigate a 'competition', they're the same as 'serial' one-liners. Example: I'm fine with iluvlamp's graphic above. A bunch of graphics like it would become an issue. EDIT: If this site ever has a "Brewers Win The World Series!!!" thread, I don't think we're going to care a lot about what gets posted in it.

    Hall isn't really 'off the charts' low, though. Why doesn't Brian A. just give us the actual attendance figure? He just said the crowd was over 41,000 and a sellout. Why not tell us 41,whatever? This is how he always does it.

    I remember seeing Renee, the FSN stage manager they just showed on TV, at Miller Park in 2001. Matt Vasgersian and the crew were out in left field setting up for the broadcast. They were goofing around, throwing things at each other. All of a sudden, Matt's yelling, "I got Renee in the ass! I got Renee in the ass!"

    With wOOgiE22 gone for a couple days, I'll get this going. The game is televised on FSN-Wisconsin and broadcast on the Brewer Radio Network.

    The stuff about sigs is in the FAQ. Brian's letter is more of an addendum to the FAQ, addressing issues that have been concerning staff and moderators. It would make sense at some point to combine the two documents.

    I figured the site would be back soon when I started getting a Bad Gateway error instead of nothing.

    You posted; I responded. You edited your post; I edited in response to your edit. You edited again, and my suggestions became obsolete, so I deleted my post. Can't get much more cool than that. By the way, I would have gotten a link to the correct Issues thread posted over there, but I didn't get the chance. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

    This is actually the thread I was referring to: Thanks Brian It's not a very descriptive title; you wouldn't have spotted it without knowing it was there.

    I don't know if you're attempting to post your signature in HTML, but note that HTML in sigs is only available to ezSupporters. All members have the ability to post signatures using ezCode. Also note that Brewerfan.net asks that images not be included in signatures.

    Dear Brewers, Military night is cool. I'd possibly like to see caps that conform to MLB rules, or are at least the same color, but I'm cool with it as is. 1992casey

    Dear Corey Hart, Scott Baker has more guts than you. He continued to interview after he got a pie in the face. You didn't. 1992casey

    Dear bucksman4, I should make it clear that I was frustrated with the Brewers and not with you. I couldn't do that while simultaneously writing a letter and a haiku. 1992casey
  20. 1992casey
    Hello bucksman4, Would you rather do haiku? Frustrated Casey

    Dear Fike85, That's tomorrow's format. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif 1992casey

    Dear blingster, If the game continues at this pace, it'll end too early to say, "Good night, Wisconsin." 1992casey

    Dear radio listeners, Has tonight's attendance been announced yet? 1992casey

    Dear Johnny, If you can pull off a .330 OBP, I promise I won't hassle you about your P/PA. 1992casey

    Dear Alfred Schroeder, Please be advised that the American League is no less of a stolen base league than the National League. You make this outdated claim every year. Do your homework. 1992casey
