NorthSideSox72 Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 I was banned, or at least suspended, from WSI, back in '06. And here is the best part - it had nothing to do with anything I posted there. For whatever strange reason, back in 2006, I decided to post a few times on the Tigers' board. There was a poster on there, named Timberwolf, who was a huge Twins fan and just a general ass. Anyway, he also posts on WSI. One of the Tigers' board posters asked me about the various Sox boards, so, I gave him a breakdown. And I honestly wasn't insulting at all to WSI - just pointed out that WSI is more the common fans' board, and for that matter, was a lot less harsh than the SoxTalk crowd (and that SoxTalk was a little rougher on new posters, but had more pure baseball knowledge). Apparently, Timberwolf took some excerpts from my posts (not the whole thing, of course), and sent them to the Mods at WSI, who then banned me. A few months later, I talked them into reinstating me. I still post there, on occasion. I'll probably get banned again for this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Back in 2005 when the sky was falling, they got pissed at a couple posters who kept predicting the Sox would not make the playoffs. They cut a deal that if the posters were wrong and the Sox did make the playoffs, their accounts would be suspended. I posted that was a stupid idea and George had it backwards, that if they were right and the team missed the playoffs, who would want those posters around saying they were right, rubbing everyone's nose into it, all the while the Sox season went to hell. Their account whould be suspended if they were right and if there where wrong they should have to log on and have everyone point out how wrong they were. Someone even posted right afterwards I'd be suspended or banned. But I believe I still have posting privileges there. I forgot my password. That place just seems too boring most of the time. Too much like a fern bar with guys in suits after work having a gin and tonic and bracing for the train ride home to hell. Of course the other place seems like the day care center. I'll stay here with the crazies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
