I guess it's time to come clean. I have no sources. Everything I have ever posted was made up.

It was a cry for help.

I'm better now, thanks.

About a month ago, we decided to take a more pro-active approach to banning posters and deleting posts. Then the Louisville game happened. It’s clear we need a more sustainable and uniform system so I don't have to make posts like this every other month. We gave everybody some time to vent, but now it’s time for some simple changes that we hope will improve the board.

Before I get into it, there are two things we don't want to do. First, we don't want to neuter the board. This is a football site. It should be fun and a little crude. That's what people like about CanesInSight. Second, we don't want to take sides in the Golden/Anti-Golden debate. That has killed other boards in the past. And, quite frankly, history has proven the coach-bashers right.

But there are three areas we want to address. Violating these simple rules is an infraction. Three infractions in ten days results in a three-day posting ban.


  • Number one, no racism
  • Number two, no intentionally posting false info. We'll call this the whoopingcane rule.
  • Number three, and this is the most significant: no personal insults. I know this is an argument board, so there will be smart-*** comments. That's normal. But when you get in an insult battle with a poster, the thread stops being about football. You can say that a post is idiotic. But don't say "You're a ******* idiot." You can call out a poster for being wrong. But don't say, "You're dancing around like a Kansas City "***g0t."

We don't want to spend time giving infractions. This board is for entertainment, not for us to play hall monitors. The hope is that once these rules become clear, they will become a deterrent and the board will improve. If you want to vent in a more lax environment, I'd recommend www.WestEndZone.com.

If you have any questions or disagreements, shoot me a PM. Go Canes.

No wonder you didn't answer my PM request.
 
I am going to retire the boots too, if I can somehow figure out how to change my avatar.
 
Moderators all I said is what I thought of Nigel Bethel playing around with his recruitment I cant believe that's the reason I was funneled through to this thread at least I'm not on twitter attacking kids I have better things to do with my time then tripping off of 17 year old kids. I been following recruiting for 15 years and I know how to conduct myself.

Tread lightly. You'll be gone in a Cooper City minute, if you keep that up.
 
I would say that there are a whole lotta soft shoulders up in here...


but I don't want to get band.

Do wild speculations fall under the "false info" category? If so there are a myriad of posts to be deleted.
