Hey there fellow BCMB members!!!!
After extensive discussion we have decided in the interest of our boards to reinforce and add a few tidbits about name calling. This isn't directed at anyone in particular, just some "housecleaning" to help keep our boards fun and enjoyable for everyone involved.
From our CoC;
* Any communication that is intended to harass, belittle, humiliate, threaten or cause embarrassment to a fellow member.
* ".. using fan names in topical boards that are offensive to the topic, the team, the sport and/or its fans,.."
That being said, any derogatory moniker- inclusive of "hater" and "homer", etc.- is now going to be allowed in smack only. While using such names and terms please keep the CoC firmly in mind as it is our guide in keeping this place clean.
Also keep in mind that as we sit here and read what you posted that in most cases emotion, inflection, sarcasm or what ever was going through your mind as you typed cannot be deciphered, so we'll try to see the context but if there's any grey area we'll IP and delete the post. So, in short, if you have doubts if it's okay, assume we have those same doubts and it'll be dealt with.
You are all great and we appreciate your time here in helping make these boards all of ours. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
