Do you like your homeboard?

    Well, I searched your name and found 3 posts. However, I will note that it's possible the mods deleted posts by you that have not come up in search. None of those three seemed quite banworthy to me, but they all seemed to come at times when our board was not exactly going to be lenient towards people who antagonize. And all three seemed like you might be looking to provoke PSU fans.

    Given the fact that you already claimed to be bitter and jaded and out for revenge, why would we work to get your ban removed? If you're not sure why you got banned, the names of the mods are tdiddy, Lang06 and Seltz. Feel free to PM them and ask.

    EDIT: Since none of the posts I found had anything to do with what you say you posted, I'm guessing the post was deleted. And subsequently, probably not as innocent as you indicate.

    I saw the same three and agree with what you said.

    I'm going to help this guy out though by PM'ing one of the guys and asking for an extension to the ban just because he is being a little baby. biggrin

    The "bitter" and "jaded" and "out for revenge" was sarcasam. Despite that, it is ridiculous that I'm banned from your board, especially for 18 months.

    Sounds like the subject posts were deleted (which is a shame b/c they were quite humorus); however, since you've researched my other posts and found them not to be banworthy, I think the presumption would be that my other ones weren't either, not that they "aren't as innocent as [I] indicate." This is the second post where you've basically called me a liar, and I don't see where you have anything to support that position other than an underlying sketicism/generalization about posters from other teams.

    How do I PM those guys if I can't get in the site to click on any of their names? Thanks.

    Like Coach Gomez, are you still paying a monthly fee to the board from which you got booted? Also, do you have to be VIP to post on tBB?

    Damn. You have my respect. I would never give money to my board if they spurned me, especially because I'm a broke college student. lol

    It's all about your own situation as well. I've always said that if I create the next facebook/big thing, I'm building Miami a stadium of their own on campus with or without help and approval. I'lll pay off whoever I have to, to get Tropical Field the next home of Miami and fund the stadium myself.

    And all reporters are welcome on field except the one's from Miami.247sports.com moon

    I would put Gator, Seminole, Buckeye, Irish, Sooner, Longhorn, Bama and any other reporters anywhere they want on the field with ALL access except for the girls from our site. biggrin

    Well, an unwarranted extension would dovetail nicely with the lack of support for the original ban now wouldn't it?cool

    You have posted your intention to troll our board after the ban is lifted, which is a violation of board rules. An extension is justified. thumbsup

  • I LOVE my PSU board. The staff does a phenomenal job and we've got a great mix of posters. It wouldn't be any fun if we didn't have a newera to hate on (basically our leading homeboard troll).

    Well, I'm not a mod so I don't make judgment calls on this stuff.

    I've not called you a liar, but I am indeed skeptical. That skepticism also stems from the fact that we have good mods who don't just ban out of whim.

    Go to your inbox, click on "Create Message" and type those names in (you can even include all of them in the message). The names should then pop up in a box so you can PM them.

    But then I rescinded my intention prior to the extension. If someone buy a ski mask with the intent to rob a bank, and then returns it and changes his mind no crime has been committed.

    Who do you think we are, homie? The NCAA? biggrin

    We have no problem with people who post respectfully and are interested in legitimate conversation. If people are just looking to provoke or troll, then we're not interested. I don't think it's that different from most boards. Especially ones that are entirely VIP, like OSU's main board.

    Trolling is not only welcome on tRCMB, it's encouraged.

    Fair enough. Some boards are less tolerant than others. But a board can't be adverse to some good natured ribbing when it's mixed in with some solid conversational posts. I mean, we're fans from opposing teams--it can't be 100% congenial 100% of the time! There's got to be a sweet spot.

    I can't risk trolling tRCMB. I saw what they did to Steve Helwagen--they donvoted him during a Big Ten chat so far that 247 considered firing him and they suggested that the over/under on the amount of freckles he has was one million.

    Not only that, then I'd never be able to read their posts, which are too damn funny.

    True. But their bans are reasonable--a month or so. Their punishment fits the crime. Ban lengths on the PSU board are like the laws in Georgia that put kids in jail for twenty years just for getting a blowjob from a fellow high school student.

    No doubt Penn State fans in general are pretty sensitive at this point, especially after everything that happened. Not going to deny that. But it's really all about timing. I doubt the Oregon board would take too kindly to ribbing about Chip Kelly now. Whereas they might be a little more mellow about it 6 months from now.

    And yes, the fact that you're an OSU fan means you're going to get less leeway than fans of other teams, like Alabama. But that's just how it goes.

    Being on your board that day was like watching some 70 year old drunk Texas cattle rancher back right into a swarm of killer bees.

    Good natured ribbing and the Sandusky scandal are two things that never will go together. It's impossible.

    We have a few posters from other boards that come on and are constructive and the board as a whole is tolerant of those posters.

    I'd suggest if the ban is lifted that you sort of ease into a bit. Typically any OSU poster doesn't get welcomed with open arms.

    If winning was easy even losers would do it.
