Re: Can see ignored users being quoted.
Well, I come from a very violent mud. Pretty much nothing other than the newbie and the main gossip channel is moderated except by channel owners. The boards aren't really modded either. Insults are a way of life there, and you better be good or you get ran off.

Re: Can see ignored users being quoted.
Clay has always kept the forums here pretty darn liberal. At least compared to many of the other forums that I'm a member of.
That being said, there aren't any actual "unmoderated" forums here. Ejections is close, but we still look at it...
Not really saying anything here, just imparting a bit of info is all.

Re: Can see ignored users being quoted.
It's better this way. I've been on many other forums, and it seems that the ones with the most rules and moderation actually have the most problems. These forums are relatively problem-free. A bad apple every now and then, but not constant issues.

Re: Can see ignored users being quoted.
Actually, HGM reminds me of someone from my mud, except that he hates sports (but his brother does like baseball, ironically). Funny thing is we used to be clanned together, but man the fights we had on channels were great.

MUDS are awesome, you ought to give them a try some time. Google it when you get a chance.
UO, Everquest, WOW, etc... have basically taken the mud concept and run with it. The original MUD/MOO/MUSH style is still lots of fun though.

Hit.......and run
Wow this was the funniest thread I've read in a while, although I was m.i.a. for a while so I may have missed something.

We both have been MIA...but this is an interesting thread...I am glad there are two new moderators. That means that I can take a back seat and eventually leave BMO, and this forum. ( I have no time ), especially reading these new 100 reply threads that are poping up...

Good point, activity is also required, probably more than activeness is. :p

Re: Can see ignored users being quoted.
Heh, and that wasn't actually a typo, so yeah...

I would have called Ohm's liberal and Robin and HGM moderate but that's just my 2 cents, continue on with your usual programming...

I'm much more "liberal." I despise those terms, but I'd say ohms got it right.

What do you mean by that?
Politically, I'm very very far "left," and I've noticed that it seems as though people with left-leaning political views tend to be more sabermetric-leaning when it comes to baseball.
I can gaurentee you that, politically, I'm far from moderate.
-
Re: Can see ignored users being quoted.
Uh, how do you come to that conclusion?

That I'm far from moderate? Or that it seems as though left-leaning people tend to be more stat-oriented when it comes to baseball? I'm assuming the latter. It's just a pattern I've seemed to notice, nothing definite.

Re: Can see ignored users being quoted.
Oh, so no concrete facts?

Re: Can see ignored users being quoted.
Um, no, there's no concrete facts. It's just something I've noticed every once in a while.
-
Re: Can see ignored users being quoted.
Nod. You may be on to something as I am somewhat conservative, however I am not opposed to sabremetrics in principle, but in its current form.

Re: Can see ignored users being quoted.
Wow thanks guys for the exciting thread. I miss one day and the next thing you know I have to read 8 pages of a train wreck to see where it ends up. LOL. Seriously I am glad to se Robin and HGM as Mods now as I have learned a lot from their threads since I first joined thre forum.

Mostly the "don't end up like this" variety of learning, sad isn't it? :(
