HighHeat45 Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 From that thread One of the more interesting threads I've read so far today. I think that's all I'll say... Wow, if that is one of the more interesting threads over there, it sure must be boring as all hell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 I just read it, how f***ing gay it is over there. Its ridiculously strict. Question a moderators authority, rules of the board (as TMAR did), or act out of line ONE time and you could be banned. I notice many soxtalk members who post over at WSI and I have no problem with that. Afterall, its a White Sox message board and were all on the same side. What perplexes me about our fellow fan site is their new found arrogance now that the media has recognized them. "OMG, DAVE WILLS MENTIONED US!" Now, to properly represent the White Sox community, threads which showcase negativity or heated debates are moved to the Roadhouse. Browse the forum; there's over 20 locked threads. ALL WITHIN TWO WEEKS. Our site has yet to collect that number in nearly two years. Another noteable difference between the sites is the moderating team. Theirs is compiled of disgruntled, arrogant nerds who have no life outside the message board and attempt to justify their existence with an internet dictatorship. Again, browse through the Roadhouse and you'll be grateful of the leniency of this site. Truly the opitimy of mod-abuse. Answer this for me: if any WSI member were to have questioned the removal of a members administrative power (cwsox) would they still be around? Likely not. For anyone not familar with the history several prolific members had with WSI you may think I'm overreacting. "It's just a message board," some will say. Last year, before I began consistently posting here I never would have devoted the time to bash another site. But after reading the abuse of power transpiring at WSI a rant was in order. I'm sorry for hijacking your thead chisoxfan. Good luck with the WGN superfan contest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremyb Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 I just read it, how f***ing gay it is over there. Not gay at all. Just a couple of silly toads on a banning spree. Nothing out of the ordinary. :sleep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number one thing i like about sox talk is that you can be here for awhile and not even know who exactly is a mod or admin because they do not try to threaten to ban you if you voice your opinion. If i did not see that certain members have a colorful name i would have never know that they were a mod, which is a good thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
