I guess adding to your post total by voting for which pornographic picture you like better is ok, but if you joke about the post totals it isn't.

 

Who cares about these post totals? It is the stupidest thing I can think of. If that's the point of these boards, I've overestimated everyone here.

 

Would a mod please email me why spammers ball was locked and such important thread like THE Fanny thread again continues?

 

We leave up such brilliant posts like Richard Gere and Gerbils but move swiftly if someone jokes about spam and tries a little humor to stop all these congratulations on writing 3000 posts.

Once post totals are meaningless, we'll have some quality around here.

Why are people care if the thread gets locked or not? Especially when such thread was the most blatant and un-funny waste of banwitdth ever....Jesus, at least gerbi/Gere was a practical advice and maybe a little funny; the only good thing about Spammer Balls is the title.

The point is there are so many other b.s. topics that don't get locked. Why did this one get locked? Now we are judging the quality of the threads and if they don't produce great works we are going to lock them.

 

:fyou

It was bar none the worst thread ever.

But posting megabytes of semi porno isn't a waste of bandwith. Talking about beastly's 3000 post isn't a waste?

 

Sorry I'm wasting your bandwith. I won't do that anymore.

Tex, this was like the first or second time I've EVER seen someone just lock a thread on this site.

 

(Try starting something similar on WSI and see how quickly Georgeboy erases your IP address. )

 

And those pictures are a huge turn-on....to some people I mean. Who did Spammer Ball (again great title) turn on? :)

 

I just don't understand how some people get so sensitive about this lock stuff. I for one know what will happen if I start a thread named "Steal Jason's Money" and that's why I don't do it.

There has been way too much junk here lately...and Tex has been a major culprit. I have been reading WSI lately just to avoid the junk. WSI sucks too, but I can actually get to stuff that is more than trash.

For me, it just the bulls*** of Texsox and PA continuing some useless conversation along these lines for an entire thread:

 

-Great post PA

 

-Thanks Tex

 

-No Problem

 

-Great post

 

-Thanks Tex

 

STOP IT!!!

I can think of a lot of worst threads ever and Tex makes some good points, the spammers ball thread was hardly one of the worst ever. The call was made and I stand by Jas's decision. But piling on is an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.

 

  There has been way too much junk here lately.

 

And what is junk -

 

to me the hot chick pics to me are soft porn and below the puerile level of junor high.

 

to me the celebrate with massive posting the "milestone" posts is junk.

 

to me the posts about the bulls or hawks to do not belong here - there are other boards for that.

 

to me - I could cite other threads I thought were junk or dumb.

 

but you know what -

 

that is all just to me and that other people enjoy those things, my opinion is just purely personal and why should I feel rip into other people's stuff like that? I say enough, we all say enough - the more I learn to just ignore what I feel meaningless because there are some who find fun and community in what I don't care for - that's the cool way to go, to me.

 

In fact, texsox's spammer's ball was just a way of really pointing out how meaningless some of the thrads are - it was brilliant guerilla theatre.

 

it is also off season and people are out of school for a few weeks and it is a time to be silly and to play and thus because of the time of year of year, we will see an increase in "meaningless posts" which will end when soxfest and ST arrive or when a trade is made if one ever is - so since this is the season for this, why get out of shape?

 

Now past experience tells me Elton John was right that saturday night's alright for fighting so I am bailing out of here because the worst fights ever had on soxtalk were on saturday nights and I don't want a piece of this at all.

 

Go to it everyone who needs to...

I agree most that is junk...but you have no room to talk. You were "unsportsmanlike" to CS yesterday. That stuff is a pain in the ass to read.

unsportsmanlike to cubsuck yesterday???? - there is a real probability that is true. I have discussed that with him and apologised. I stand by everything that I said on the larger issue - just that cubsuck (and Ross) were not what I was really trying to get at. But Steve, I will not disagree that cubsuck (and Ross) caught s*** from me that he (they) did not deserve and I have told cubsuck I am sorry, tried to say something to that effect in that thread with my last post, and I say it here.

I see your point, cw, but if all this stuff is unnecessary, then an

"off-topic" board and "sports bar" board should not be here and any non-White Sox related threads should be disallowed.

 

...do that, and watch the tumbleweeds roll around this board...

 

to my point of view, unless something has ZERO point at all, such as the needless post-total thread, then it should be left alone. Even the annoying stuff.

Off-season = off-topic

The Pale Hose Talk is more active during the season and the off-topic stuff is busier during the off-season, especially an offseason like THIS one, when we've had NOTHING to discuss except pointless, fruitless rumors.

NO acquisitions worth mentioning.

Players leave, leave and leave.

Not the stuff of happy discussion.
