Wow, what an interesting, and very sad day in Soxtalk history.
Jason has now quit, and Alex and myself are in charge. I am prepared to make the first announcement under our new sort of "regime."
AS of right now, Clujer, BMR, and CWSOX(Vince) have been banned from this board.
I feel that I had to do this, for the health and prosperity of this board. There has been so much bickering that I believe if these moves weren’t made that this entire board would eventually die.
I banned the following members for the following reasons.
Clujer: well, unfortunately this member hasn’t learned from the 2 suspensions he has already earned. I think that he offers nothing to this board, other than his constant negative attitude, and his needless attacks on people who are non-deserving. I feel that if I were to allow him to bash people any longer, that I would be not fulfilling my duties that Jason has bestowed upon me. He has officially been banned for life.
BMR: This member has "promised" us that he would try and be a better poster, but he has turned out to be a liar. He continues this senseless debate on another member’s sexuality, and will not allow it subside. The Moderating staff has simply had enough of it and will no longer tolerate such cruelty. I think there are sometimes, where saying “sorry” isn’t good enough, especially when you don’t mean it. This member has been officially banned for life.
Cwsox: I regret having to do this, as I consider Vince a personal friend – one I might lose now – but under the circumstances I believe that he is deserving of a ban lasting no more and no less than 8 months. Vince is a responsible adult, and I don’t believe he should have put himself in the position to be accused of such serious things as pedophilia. That being said, I in no way believe any of those allegations were true. He has also been banned because of continuing arguments with other posters. This member has been officially banned for 8 months.
There will be no list of rules, because this isn’t WSI, I consider it a better message board then WSI and I believe no one needs their hands being held while posting here. Our members are what make this board special, so I’m sorry for any inconveniences that we’ve put you through, It’s something that’s needed to be done for quite a time. I will receive any complaints or comments through PM or my e-mail address
[email protected]. One last thing, after talking to Jason, he has assured me that he will one day return to his duties as administrator, and hopes when that day comes, this board is still the place to be for White Sox news on the web.
