Rules for visiting Laker fans.
Posted: Wed Apr 15, 2009 10:23 pm
I thought I'd give some guidelines to Laker posters who wish to visit the Jazz board during the playoffs.
The biggest issue we will have will be 'trolling'. Personally and as a mod, I don't mind a little good natured smack talk. Smack talk is fun, a little baiting can be fun as well. However, there needs to be limits.
You CAN talk smack about
--------------------------------
The game
The players
The team
The coach
The ownership
The referees
You CAN'T talk smack about
------------------------------
The RealGM posters
The state
The city
The LDS religion
Polygamy
Racism issues
Other things not related to the team and basketball.
I think that's a pretty clear line. If you want a thread about how Boozer steals from blind folks, I don't care. But, one mention of mormons and you'll be looking at a suspension. Saying things like, 'Utah fans are ...' will also be seen as trolling.
If you can limit your smack to discussion of the players and the game, I'll let it go. If you feel the need to needle the fans I wont. Simple enough.
That being said, I hope the Jazz crush the Lakers and all is right in the world.
Good luck in the series.
