The rules should be equal for every one. In my opinion, and I know that my opinion counts for nothing here, no rules should be enforced. There will obviously be exceptions, but don't selectively enforce what you consider rules for some and not for others.

Let fly what's gonna fly dude. With only one exception, I, (through Bruce), know that no one has gotten sued, beat up, murdered, raped, disemboweled, or anything else because of what was said on this board.

I say let Skidork and Shortski monitor the board. Their enforcement of the rules would be just, because there would be no enforcement, just a lot of fun.

Enforce nothing unless it gets really out of hand, and from what I've seen on this board in the few days I've been here, NOTHING has gotten really out of hand. Just good fun and freedom.

Jodi, I'm gonna chime in here. Just my $0.02

This is my first experience ever at being an admin. And I'll say this about the job: It's EXTREMELY difficult. I see now why constitutional lawyers get paid the big bucks. They argue this sort of stuff their whole life. And the supreme court even interprets it.

I'm not saying this board is on the same level as the US constitution. But being a judge just ain't what it's cracked up to be.

I'm prolly the worst of the five at deciding if anything needs nuking. Thats why I usually just let everything go because it's too difficult to decide.

The point of my post? I don't really know.

Maybe just this: Let's not criticize the admins until you've walked in their shoes. Yeah that sounds cool.

I guess one could extrapolate that to: Lets not criticize EACH OTHER until we've walked a mile in their shoes. Yeah, that sounds good, too.

A feeble 2 pennies, but they're mine! ;-)
I'm not in any way criticizing the admins. I think you guys all do a great job. You are the ones who make this website possible. I'm just pointing out a few things I've noticed here, that's all. I think this a great place to kill some time between feedings, diaper changes, and walks to the park.

I can see why Bruce used to be addicted to it. It's just good fun.

And, do you know why you should not talk about someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes?

Jodi...please tell Bruce that rules will be enforced in the judgment of the admins according to KZone policies as written and amended. It's kind of like an umpire's strike zone - he tries to be consistent within the guidelines but balls and strikes are still based on judgment. And, just so you know, all of this gets discussed back channel and shortski and ski dork are directly involved, as are Spanky, Kahuna and myself. Maybe in your house the kids can play one parent off agains the other, but not here. :P

Thanks for the prayers, by the way. She needs them.

The kids aren't playing one of us against the other. They are playing both of us. They are the bosses now. Still trying to figure out how that happened.

No need to bring Bruce into it. I'll tell him if he asks, but that's unlikely. I don't think he much cares anymore about this website, but he has coached me a little bit due to my inexperience here, but I got it going now all by myself.

By the way, those prayers were meant in the sincerest form. That's gotta be a tough one. Good luck.

real life or internet, doesn't much matter...different personalities are going to conflict, jealously and insecurity will abound, people will talk about other people behind their back, peoples feeling will get hurt and they will lash out...especially the larger the group.\

It's unfortunate what some people will do when backed into a corner tho...

And Jodi, not trying to break anyone's balls or start a flame war, but your husband himself once posted the name of my former supervisor on the chat board. What do you think he was trying to imply or what point do you think he was trying to make? To me, that takes it to a new level even though no one has gotten sued, beat up ect. JMHO...

and btw, there is a lawsuit pending, but it was more of an indirect result of circumstnaces that took place on the old board.

Hal,

I never posted any personal info about you or a former employer/supervisor on any board or any site anywhere on the internet. You may be confusing me with with someone else, or you may not, but I DEFINATELY :lol: did not do that.

The way I was told about it, 2 people got personal info on you from the pass office at K. They used it against you. Make no mistake, it was not me.

And a quick FYI, you have posted some pictures on various websites that clearly identify who you are, where you reside, and other personal info. If I wanted to screw with you, I would have used that info against you. I have not, and will not. You may want to backtrack and retrace your steps to see what I'm talking about.

I never mentioned a name, ever. I remember making reference to the word boss, or something like that, but I never mentioned a name. Check the post. You say you still have it.

Try to be nice to my wife if you can. She thinks your very funny. Good luck hunting pictures.

Hey Atomic,

As a fellow Giants fan, I think we're gonna suck again this year. Still no offensive line. Draft picks blew. Manning's gonna get his ass kicked again. Must be tough completeing passes while your laying on your back.

Are the guys gonna move this to another place because it's sports?
