MoshPitHippie 0 Posted September 9, 2006 This forum is something else, I can see what 50 people think about C. Batches ugly Mom and her crazy hair do, I can read about predictions that batch will have 48 Td's, I can read where a Football Chick asks a legitimate FF question and the first reply is asking her what size her can is, then I can see some decent thought out posts that the mindless folks here won't take a few minutes to think about or answer...

You are correct that the Batch's mom thread is worth a good laugh, I am not even sayin that it does not belong here, I just can't believe that so many people will take the time to respond to that yet won't share their 2 cents worth on other relevent FF threads....

Trust me, after Sundays games, you will be able to ask any FF question and it will be answered. We're just killing time until Sunday. The Batch thread was "Great", they're some funny people on here. You'll see come Monday, this place will be flooded with winners, losers, people hoping for a miracle monday night, people claming they are the best drafters...etc. I look forward to it...you'll see!

Everybody has discussed the preseason and week 1 matchups ad nauseum. People are just joking around a bit. Lighten up. Not everything has to be a statistical analysis or indepth study.

berven 0 Posted September 9, 2006 Drivel, you say? DRIVEL? For some, that so-called "drivel" is like water in the desert. Let's say that some of us, just to make up an example, are confined to institutions solely because of incompetent legal representation, not to mention the collusion between corrupt DAs and judges. To such persons, forum members might be dear friends; the banter you label drivel might be as close as they can come to the cameraderie they once knew on the outside. Think, sir, before you dismiss the kidding and kvetching as just so much BS and frivolity. When staff are reading the paper and shooting pool, when other inmates are babbling and screeching, it might be a the only place for some to turn.

Mike MacGregor 20 Posted September 10, 2006 There isn't much to figure out I don't think. Different forums have different styles. This one is on the loose side, much like a football locker room. Ez - I'm sorry you think the forum has "gone to crap". We do have a set of rules which we moderate as best we can. If someone does go too far, then we deal with it. Yes, we let some stuff go. Some people think we let too much go, and others think we don't go far enough. The old adage you can't please everyone definitely applies to running a message board.

Ok man, here's the problem....bad timing with no hook. Your question is for the off-season. It's ON BABY! I read your rules and I dont like. IMO its redraft, keeper, dynasty (draft or auction), pick one and follow a tried and true formats of that style. Your rules are trying too hard. Just go auction if you want to go the route you seem to want. Also....you're not making friends with a thread like this. Get creative and lay off the judgement as much of it is our history and our culture. Ill give you a "mulligan" unlike EZ whom i will never pay any attention to again.

Dude comes on into this site and tells everyone here who posts that he will need to sift through the garbage to get the quality pieces when in fact he is adding to any existing problem so that he can in effect appear to have some "high standards postings" even though he is only making worse anything that may be bad about this site and not accentuating or making better anthing good.
