I have to invent an emoticon that can even describe the amount of anger and hurt I would like to express towards NSS right now.

So apparently copy/pasting text from one website to another = stealing.

 

If anything I figured it was copyright infringement. But since I gave credit to the website and author, I didn't think it was a problem. Obviously it's enough for a permenant ban.

 

Calling the webmaster's wife a "c***" is over-looked though.

At least for news articles, it depends on how much of the text you post. Posting a whole article is a no-no, but posting a couple of paragraphs and a link is ok.

 

There's another non-sports board I'm on where moderators are elected by vote and can be recalled for abusing powers and breaking rules. It seems to work much better than situations like WSI and other message boards where mods get on huge power-trips. No complaints about the moderation here, though.

Just out of curiosity...did any of those angry bitter old codgers on that site who came up with cockamamy theories and "Law's" about why the White Sox would never ever ever win a World Series eat some crow after 2005?

 

Cause they all should have been called the F out....

Because I'm older (64) than quite a few over at WSI some have made fun of my age especially last week when I stated that I did not like tiered pricing for games. I don't understand why someone cannot accept someones different point of view without resorting to nastiness. Today someone called me a vulgar name and in my 4 years over there I have never called anyone something offensive.

I think I will soon be a former member of WSI.

I remember you. You were one of the people that actually used common sense. They ripped you apart for that tiered pricing thread.

 

If I saw a WSI mod on the street, I would most definitely jack them in the face.

Thank you, I appreciate you agreeing with me.

Welcome to Soxtalk! Finally someone older than me...yay!!!

I was a regular but quit WSI in the summer of 2005. I don't even lurk over there. The Mods are full of it.
