In an effort to make the pro and college forums more enjoyable around here we are going to try something out. A new forum called "The Basement" has been added to the boards. If you'd like to be a troll/jerk take it to the trolling forum.

The first time you troll in a thread outside of The Basement you will receive a troll warning. After your first warning you will start to receive troll points. After 2 troll points you will lose control over your avatar, user title and signature and be banished to posting only in the troll forum for a not-yet-determined amount of time.

Troll posts will be determined at the discretion of the moderating staff.

So, can we report Capone's posts now, or only his posts starting from Dec 1 @ 8:25 pm? lol

So you guys are going to check every post on every thread each day? A few weeks ago you mods were telling us you need help finding these type of posts, and now you don't need the help?

The decision is up to the mods, not the posters.

You have no idea how many post CoA reported today...it was ridiculous. Not a single one was worth reporting either.

So, let's say that the Jets/Pats thread was on a good roll of discussion and I jump on and slam both teams with no merit of facts to prove my thoughts but just make one post and use it for intentions of humor.....even if it's not taken that way.

Would that qualify or would I need to do it a few times on that thread to become troll worthy.

Name of that forum could be "Minor League" or to make it more accurate since the rest of the OC is already minor league, the new trolling ground could be "Short Season Rookie League"
