Nothing? Guess I need to go to the political board and tell William the truth some more. He thinks I am insulting him.

Please remember the big rule - no personal attacks (no insults, no namecalling).
You can address a comment (and give your honest opinion about said comment), but not the person posting the comment.

Warning levels are rising. That's a shame.
Personal attacks and hostility will not be allowed on this board, people.

People that complain should be announced in a thread or at least to whom they are accusing.

No, people should be able to express their concerns without having to worry about retaliation.
This board is supposed to be fun and informative, not hostile.
And if someone complains about something that doesn't cross the line then they are thanked for their input and told why it didn't cross the line. A warning level will never be raised for something that doesn't break the rules.

Concur completely. Very solid reasoning. (Oh, in case you were wondering, WLR and B5Erik do not always agree.)

Excuse me mods and admins, but is there an ignore option that we could enable for specific posters who drive us crazy? There are a couple of cry-baby whiners that I'd love to never see another post from.

NEW RULE...
Do NOT post phone numbers or addresses. Any harassment that ensues could be sourced here and cause a world of trouble.

Not that we are aware of. We will keep checking ProBoards to see what can be done.

Another unspoken rule that I thought wouldn't be necessary to post, but may be wiser to point out here is that racist terms are also verboten on the board.
Please remember - this board reflects on SDSU and all Aztec fans in general.
Thanks!

Thank you sir I appreciate the effort and consideration of an ignore feature.

OK, another rule that I didn't anticipate a need for, but it looks like we do.
No strip club topics. There are some people on here who find that kind of stuff offensive. Let's show some class and prove the BYU fans wrong...

Well, let's not create any conflict. As long as you don't bring it up I don't think they would, and if they did I'd deal with it.

Additionally, I'd say that repeated taunting would constitute breaking of the rules.
Our hospitality at Aztec Mesa is pretty good (we treat fans of other teams pretty darned well), but some people may overstay their welcome if they continually taunt members of the board.

time to limit the personal back and forth , it is starting to take up too much space when others want to read about a topic- the latest the basketball event last Thursday evening has gotten way off topic- should stay on Azetc teams not trashing people

somewhere within this site is a phony virus detector that flashes a warning, tempts us to download the software and then implants spyware
I'm checking with savy friends to track and indentify this rascal.
just a head's up for now...
