Title: Just So I've Got the Rules Straight..
Post by: sparky127 on September 26, 2022, 09:26:28 AM
Do I have to live in a particular state in order to root for any particular college football team?  Is it permissible here to live in Arizona and be a USC fan?

Duly noted.  What if I LIVE in Alabama?  Can I be a fan then?

So semp...  How do YOU determine what is a troll and what isn't?  How do you decide when an enthusiastic sport fan becomes just a troll?  Do you possess a crystal ball?

How do you see the darkness which lurks within the hearts of men?

That's a good point semp, since they all end up locked if there's too much traffic, determined by the forum busybodies.

I don't remember saying anything like that.  But we can all agree that the rules are there to be followed. Which is why I started this thread for determining just what the anonymous executors here consider trolling..

"The anonymous executors." This is getting rather ominous sounding.  :cool:

Take this post, for example... Definitely childish in its obtuseness.. But is it a poor attempt at trolling or just the product of a weak mind?

The rules are in a perma-thread at the top of the O-club ... but here you go.

1- Posts are to be made in the relevant forum. Users are asked to read the forum descriptions before posting.

2- Threads should remain on topic, do not "hijack" topics.

3- Do not open a new thread that duplicates a current topic.

4- Flame baiting, flaming, being abusive, being disrespectful, trolling, spamming or posting to incite or annoy is not allowed. If you cannot make a positive contribution to the thread, then just stay out of it.

5- Members are asked to not act as "back seat moderators". If you feel a post violates the forum rules, the use the "Report to Moderator" link in the post to report it.

6- Posting pornographic or generally offensive text, images, links, etc. will not be tolerated. This includes attempts to bypass the profanity filter.

7- Cheating allegations or descriptions are not allowed. Email support@hitechcreations.com to report any issues regarding this. HTC permanently bans anyone caught cheating in Aces High. We take cheating and allegations of cheating very seriously.

8- Complaints about a player's behavior online should be emailed to support@hitechcreations.com rather than posted to this board.

9- Users are permitted to upload one of their own avatars. Avatars must be in good taste and consistent with the other rules of this board.

10- Do not punt topics. Punting would be making a non-substantive post for the express purpose of bring the thread to the top of the thread list.

11- Members should post in a way which is consistent with "normal writing". That is users should not post excessive numbers of emoticons, large, small or colored text, etc. Similarly users should not SHOUT or use excessive punctuation (e.g. ! and ?) in topic titles or posts.

12- All posts, in public forums, should be made in the English language.

13- Threads started devoid of commentary will not be allowed (i.e. links, cut-n-pastes, clicky, read this...)

14- Posting topics or threads which are based on politics, race, or religion is expressly forbidden.

(Might I recommend that if you do not find your behavior in violation of the rules then you should consider contacting HiTech directly via email or telephone and not rely on the community via the forum.) Just sayin'.

Respectfully, you're welcome.  :)

Just so you know, are low... Any time I ask a question here, unless I specifically name you in the question.. It's not directed at or toward you, in any shape or form and by no means any stretch of that thing you call an imagination, so feel free to not answer.

There you go; you're off the hook.. One less busybody chore to cross off your list.

You're welcome.

Just so you know, when you quote someone it is sufficiently implied that the question is directed to that person. Also, on a public forum without quote or direction anyone may comment. :)

You should add that to the rule list.  And.. I didn't forbid you from answering a question (I'm not a busybody, after all), I just made it clear that your input is NOT required (as you so apparently believe it is).
Title: Re: Just So I've Got the Rules Straight..

well your first posting was about sports then you post this which indicates you were trolling with your first post. can you explain?

I'm sorry. Were you addressing me?
