Not BAC, but I will give you the answer. You received the "rules" in the terms of service message when you signed up for this site. They can also be viewed in this thread.

Basically it boils down to don't threaten other posters, don't verbally abuse other posters and keep the smack talk on the smack board. Follow those and you shouldn't have any problem with the moderators, though some Cat posters may get a little heated.

In using these forums, you agree not to post any abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful, threatening, sexually-oriented or any other material that may violate any applicable laws.
If that is grounds for banishment, you may as well boot me now, kmax.
I'm pretty sure I've comitted several of those violations, several times!

:wink:

To tell you the truth, that one weighs in somewhere around a 5'2" anarexic cheerleader as far as I am concerned and is below some of the things that have been said in return from Cat fans. To me that is not a personal attack, is not vulgar(or at least no different than things almost every poster has said here at one point), and is on topic for what he was saying and was in the smack forum. Whether he is making any sense or not has nothing to do with it. I am truly sorry if you disagree with me.

While this is a Bobcat board, I will not get into the business of selectively censoring fans of other teams, and especially not on the smack board. I know some of the Griz fans here get under the skin of some Cat fans here, guess what, that is what they want to do. Other than an occasional slip, we have(in my opinion) done a good job of keeping that type of thing confined to the smack board.

So in conclusion if that little statement gets you into a tizzy, I would suggest you stay off the smack board. Or do what I do and ignore most of the smack crap and take part in the much more interesting topics on the other boards. If you guys want me and the other moderators to start playing gestapo to get rid of the annoying Griz fans(which I don't want to do for the record), just remember I will be applying it both ways and there will be some Cat fans getting their hands smacked as well.

To be honest, as much as BearBac and Scats annoy me, I haven't really seen any grounds to kick them off. Their attacks aren't personal 95% of the time, and when they are, it's pretty minor. Most of the personal attacks come from the Cat fans who they suceeded in pissing off. I more or less stopped posting in the smack forum, I read it every once in a while to see their lame attempts at smack. ;)

I agree with Kmax, if anything the Cat fans are the ones who step over the line.

You're doing great kmax. Keep up the good work. If you don't like the heat, get out of the kitchen, so they say.

So, were you one of those guy's well known around the "state" as one of "Cliff's quitters" ? :oops: :cry: :oops:
No. If you want to you probably could figure out who I am by my handle (it may take you a couple of weeks). I am sure that I have logged more time on the Grizzly’s field playing football then you have. Of course I am sure that you have logged more time in the seats watching football and drinking beer yelling obscenities at student athletes then I have… :oops: :oops:

I wonder if bear worked up the nerve to ask for an autograph?
