If someone's post is really really stupid (like footwedge's posts about Pomeranz's 6th place ranking in a 25 person list making him top 6 percentile and then subsequently trying to defend his errant math), then yes, it does add to the discussion.Mooney44Cards;1169204 wrote:To be honest, I don't think either of them add to any discussion. Do you?
Again, it sounds like you just really want completely 100% civilized conversation, so head back to the huddle and ADIOS enjoy your time there.

I will keep this post in mind when I get a warning for saying the same thing to somebody. Thanks.wildcats20;1169213 wrote:Still whining about that?
This post pretty much is the type of post that apparently derails a convo, which in turn should be an infraction.

No, not 100%. Just something higher than the like 15% it's currently at.lhslep134;1169214 wrote:If someone's post is really really stupid (like footwedge's posts about Pomeranz's 6th place ranking in a 25 person list making him top 6 percentile and then subsequently trying to defend his errant math), then yes, it does add to the discussion.

Sounds like you want to sit around all day and insult people anonymously on the internet, so maybe you should find a place where it is acceptable to do that (I hear the comments section on Yahoo! news stories is full of that) because it is clearly no longer acceptable here.
Also, LOL at someone telling me to go find some other site because I happen to agree with the rules put in place by the person who owns and operates this site.

Is this an infraction worthy post too? Based on the new rules, he is mocking certain posters in this thread. Seems like an infraction to me.wildcats20;1169235 wrote:OMG You gave me a warning for that??

Like I have said before I know the rules here and on other sites. I pretty much abide by all rules and go to the basement to start the trouble I want to start. Reading this thread it seems the mods really are not on the same page. I know I complain about them a lot but yea rules need to be followed to keep this place the way you want it. Lead by example always works and when mods are doing exactly what you dont want us to do is not a good thing.

Make them feel worse? The unnecessary swear word I love to use because I think it's ridiculous that people get offended by swear words.
Now, as for "that's the stupidest fucking thing I've heard" I feel if that is the only thing in so post. It's unnecessary. However, if I start with that and go on with my opinion. It's fine. Calling a post stupid and then explaining why, shouldn't be an infraction. No matter how it is stated that the post is stupid.
but I'm an idiot. What do I know. (is this an infraction?) Lolz

At least I can type 'may I momma dog face to the banana patch' and not get a permaban, like I did at that other site...I think.

hey how about telling everyone to goto the forum rules page to accept the new rules? i read this a few times trying to figure out how to post until after 10 minutes i stumbled my way to the forum rules page.
and if you call me an idiot because i missed the instructions to do that somewhere.....PERSONAL ATTACK!!!!

It didn't automatically redirect you there?
