Jimmy banned me- won't even let me login
Didn't even use profanity. Thanks, dude! Very fair! The board is running great so far thanks to you!

Sorry to hear that KingBash. Two sides to every story. Jimmy has always come across as a straight shooter to me. We need to hear both sides or not...
KB was breaking the rules in the ST forum, he was asked to cease and he refused, he was asked to leave the thread and he refused, a general warning to all was given in the thread and he ignored it.
Others were given warnings or asked to stop and obliged.
The ST forum will only exist if decorum is followed and respect is given to other members. He was blatantly being disrespectful to others and was given a week to decide if he really wants to be here.

Sounds like resonable moderation, good on you @JimmyinSD!

In the long run, by acknowledging this I know I'm giving him what he wants. It was a political move by him (while Trump supporters bait and flame with mere warnings), but at the very least I wanted to get a word in before I disappeared completely. I really don't care more than getting my "day in court."

I was never asked to cease to the best of my knowledge. There's a chance because of the change of software I didn't see it, but I'm pretty sure he just jacked my account permanently.In the long run, by acknowledging this I know I'm giving him what he wants.

I told you to quit trolling or move on and your reply was "nah" you were warned but chose to ignore them. And it's not political, its about knowing when to shut up and walk away.You were given a 1 week suspension so live with it. This is the end of this conversation and this account.

I want a site for Vikings fans to maturely be able to discuss various topics with other fans, and it was never about no rules and no moderation as some like to throw out there, it was about self policing and showing respect to other posters.
Belittling , trolling, name calling etc don't do the site a damn bit of good no matter which forum it is.
If you don't like how I am moderating feel free to take it up with the other mods and have me removed, no skin off my ass.
I don't give two shits how you moderate. And I don't care who moderates or what the rules are. I can only try to follow the rules.
Thanks for yoor history lesson. But I was here from the beginning.
I came over for Training Camp info and there's locked threads, warnings and bannings..oh my. Oh..and complaining about the other boards primary aggregator, Purp1eOne, while simultaneously putting up with even worse from his replacement...the guy that wants to pick and choose who can participate in threads.
We're better than this aren't we?

So what is your point? That you donated to the site and you aren't happy with how it's being run?

We've always had posters get timeouts.
what threads are locked? Pretty sure the locked thread was on the horn site
as far as this site vs that site crap. Please don't. There is obviously enough animosity between the two sites already without adding more fuel.

My comment was for the board and not directed at the Moderation. Sorry you took offense...and thanks for the snarky comment about the so called locked thread on the other board. Lets be honest about what happened over there. CAN had a dustup here and came to the other board and wanted to vent. Others jumped in and it started to be a VF bashing thread. You were there so you know that. As moderators, we tried to temper the sniping about this board and talked to CAN behind the scenes. He asked to have the thread locked so P1 obliged temporarily. After discussing, we decided to unlock and let the thread run its course. So yes..there was a thread that was locked for about an hour not based on violation of site rules..just violation of decorum between the boards since many bounce back and forth. I agree wholeheartedly that turning it into a we vs them does nobody any favors. I have a lot of people over here that I consider friends including you Jim. There..got that out of my system..lol. Have a good 4th everybody.
