Moderator Action Sticky

Brian has requested that instead of deleting each individual comment in the Moderator Action Sticky, that we instead just create a new thread. It takes hours of less time, preserves the comments for future explanations, and just clears things up faster.

You'll notice that the previous thread is now locked, and will slowly fade back into darkness. For the time being, the link from the Useful Stuff menu will point to the wrong location. We're working on a fix for that.

 

This thread is an ad-hoc way of tracking what threads and comments get removed. Mods that remove a thread should post the title here with a brief reason as to why the thread is gone.

NOTE: if you leave an irrelevant comment in this thread it will be deleted.

Thanks for being apologetic about it before posting. The news is tangentally related to Michigan since Lewan and Roh's coach is involved but the "RR is learning" tack (actually he's aping Dantonio) is not appreciated.

Deleted for two reasons:  First, it was a stupid thread - if you're going to post a "I'm drunk" thread at least make it somewhat creative or entertaining.  Second, I'm not able to be in New Orleans and the thread and OP made me feel left out.   :-(

Hardaway, Jr.

Questioning an athlete's intelligence (basketball intelligence or otherwise) is a recipe for getting a thread pulled. This is especially true for a kid who grew up in NBA locker rooms.  The fact that the OP refused to change the thread title to something non-sucky didn't help.

Hippocritcy & OSU

Hippocrates is spelled wrong. And you shouldn't blame him for Posey getting invited to the senior bowl -- there's no way when he invented Western medicine in the 5th century B.C. he could have foreseen the world he would be creating would have an Ohio State in it.

However if he means the Hippocrates who was the father of the tyrant Peisistratos, then I'm with him: if the Oracle says your child is going to be a dick, you LISTEN!

Per Brian's direction, no Rodriguez posts unless (and I'm paraphrasing) they directly relate to the current status of Michigan football or are thought-provoking historical analysis.  This one was neither and no good could or did come from it.

Wow, so that was a dud....

BISB precedent dictates that I must keep the second thread on this topic rather than the first due to the superior title and higher number of posts in response.

Did you know the UM men's hoops poster is racist? It's true!

This was going about the same direction the Ann Arbor.com article's responses were going, which was a bad way to be going, as going goes.

Gunner Kiel’s Class Schedule (Subject to Change)

Swing and miss. No, it wasn't Kiel's real class schedule; it was making up stupid classes to make fun of ND and Kiel's face and Louisiana. Pulled more for being unfunny than offensive.

It's the kind of thing I could care less about, but which will just get reposted 90 times if we delete the first one. The comments were already descending deep into "[group] needs to stop being whiny" territory, so I changed the title and locked the thread.

FTR I'm pretty sure this group cares way more about its core issues, but c'mon man if he was making players wear peyus and yarmulkes to make the statement that if you're not trying hard enough you're a Jew...well I'd find that funny but it would still be offensive.

If anyone asks how they lost 1,000 times as many points tonight as Michigan left on the court in missed layups, ask them if they've said "I'm just telling it like it is" recently.

Cleaned out several threads and a pair of double-posts. If you feel you were unfairly moderated tonight by a pissed off editor who spent too much time talking to doctors about terrible choices today, I'll hear your appeals so long as you didn't say "telling it like it is."

[UN]OFFICIAL MGOSTANCE ON TRAYVON MARTIN SITUATION:

It sucks.  There is nothing good about this situation. It sucks from top to bottom, front to back, and eight ways from Sunday. But while there is much to be learned from it, the board probably isn't the place to attempt to do so. The conflagration of race, politics, and murder makes for flamebait regardless of anyone's intentions to the contrary.

Post about several MSU players being arrested for burglary and then being let go by the police without a police report.

It may have happened, but we're not putting it on the board without something more than a friend of a friend told me ____________.

OT - Other terrible decisions thread

I thought this thread was going to be about terrible threads.  Now THAT would have been a fun read, people reminiscing about threads that got punted for various reasons.  An MGoHistory of sorts.  Feel free to start that one - I'll participate.  This thread, however, was not much fun and a little too OT for this moderator, even during the offseason.

Are the mods too sensitive to opinions?

User was confused about what mods do. Readers over a certain points threshold are able to "moderate" comments, and those comments that get enough negative votes become grayed out. If you wish to see them, they're still there--just change your personal threshold for negative comments. The original post can still be pos'ed or negged the old fashioned way.

The thread has been deleted to protect the OP from such negging.

Couple of other thoughts:

1) As MisopoSeth indicated, we don't moderate comments. Any user with more than 100 points can moderate comments. An upvote (funny, insightful, whatever) increases the score by 1 (up to 5), and a downvote (overrated, flamebait, etc.) decreases by 1 (down to -1).

2) You can make the "greyed" comments visible by changing the settings below the OP; where it says "threshold," set it to "-1."  All comments will be visible, even the ones other people think suck.

3) Yes. We are too sensitive. We weren't loved enough by our parents, and we still haven't fully processed the Falklands War. It gets to be a lot, ya know?

Even though the OP links new articles, I think this was sufficiently hashed out a while back.  Plus, Meyer has to have something to say to kids considering both schools that ask about academics.  Not having any answer would be stupid (even though what he has decided to say is just as silly).

Zone Left,

I found it pretty ridiculous that the Chris Armstrong thread was immediately locked.  That was one of the biggest stories of many's time at UM and even a significantly important one. 

There's no politics.  We should be able to discuss that issue as it brought out a lot of what is good at the University of Michigan - a President defending a student, students of many viewpoints standing as one, etc.  

If a person or two cannot behave like adults, then deal with them - you don't have to ruin it for the rest of us.

Agree in principle

But in practice, I'm with ZL on this one. I just got home, looked at the board, saw the thread title, and thought to myself, "Godwin, have mercy on us."

This topic has been discussed in the past, and has predictably produced some spirited discussion. And if this was mid-afternoon, sure, what the hell, I'd babysit the thread. But if we leave that thread unattended overnight, history tells me that we will awaken to comments like "Goddamn Kyrgyzstan had it coming" and "the gays cause unemployment."

You hit my reasoning on the head. I left it up because it is relevant to the University, but I locked it because:

Think the thread was edited out of this post

But wasn't he supposed to be monitored? On the front page he's calling someone a tool-

http://mgoblog.com/comment/reply/71181/1684967

And while I don't love Tater or anything, he said nothing to deserve the same calling. Then he's name calling Brian-

http://mgoblog.com/comment/reply/71181/1684970

Which I know Brian tries to never bomb someone for disagreeing with him, but it's not really showing you're feeling sorry and heeding hte warning by doing this. No regret or remorse. Do Brian the favor by bringing the ban hammer for him.

I don't say this just because I don't like what he says; everyone knows Section 1 and I butt heads every ten minutes, but I'd never (seriously) call for his ban. We all lose our cool on occasion, but there's a difference between that and zero value added. And frankly, it's kind of makes the site look worse because it shows the permissiveness AA.com allows in its posts. Other teams' trolls are annoying. our own team's trolls are embarrassing.

but can any of the mods explain why there has been no moderator action on these posts (among others on this thread)?

http://mgoblog.com/comment/reply/71033/1679290

http://mgoblog.com/comment/reply/71033/1679600

Many users have faced point reductions affecting their ability to edit any of the "trusted user" topics, post diaries and MGoBoard posts, ect. or faced a ban on commenting for using the same type of "cute nicknames" Brian warns against in his Official MGoBlog Pet Peeve List. I'm wondering why a user is allowed to say "Walverines" twice in a comment, post modified quotes about the 1968 Democratic Convention or gay marriage and not have any repercussions on the board. I'm trying not to get into my opinion on the topic, but can I have a black and white ruling on what posts/nicknames are okay and which aren't?

Removing that thread was outrageous.  That family is screwed now.  I doubt the child will even have a name -- he'll probably just turn into some kind of sociology experiment where we see what happens when a human being has no natural way to refer to himself.

Plus, selfishly, I was really hoping that he'd go for my suggestion of [first name: "Turd"] [middle name: "named after Turd Ferguson"] [last name: "Ferguson"].

Second Opinion

I read the initial article and I agree with ZL: there was no new information here. His gist was "LOIs are not scholarships" and that "it's different in the South" because many of the kids who sign LOIs don't end up making it to Bama. He vastly overstated the number of non-qualifiers and those who get drafted to play baseball the following spring to make his point, and failed to address the key points of dramatic medical hardship over-use, very high transfer attrition from the bottom of the depth chart, or the big kahuna: that it creates a situation where the coach HAS to have 15 or so guys "choose baseball" every year, etc., therefore creating a situation where the coach isn't acting in his players' best interests.

From a more established poster, okay, I might let this slide as discussion, however this user has been beating this particular drum before, and is far more interested in having his say than having a discussion.

Considering that and his reaction (an all-caps board post that broke not-Godwin's Law), this is a pretty clear-cut banhammer. If other Bama fans want to come here and have an open debate on the topic of oversigning, that is very welcome. This particular user is not.

A while back, he was complaining about being downvoted in the Mod Action Thread and I specifically told him not to try and win an oversigning argument here. At best, that thread would have dissolved into everyone on the board ganging up on him and him writing increasingly angry posts. Personally, I didn't care about the rationale (although it was pretty pathetic). 

Strangely enough, he got more slack than I would probably have given a Michigan fan. I want the opposite opinion here and really like the commentary of some of the OSU, ND, and MSU posters.

He's gone, but for future reference (not just you, but everyone), if we are aware of a situation, continuously bringing it to our attention is not particularly helpful.

Well, the first post up there was August 24th

And when one gets the "you are THIS close to being banned" message, and he ignores it...again...and again...it's hard to tell if anyone is aware (I don't think anyone expects the mods to read every single post on the blog. Even I don't do that). And the previous poster saw that he was still posting today.  So the wheels, they kind grind slow at times.

Listen, I want to apologize

Listen, I want to apologize to you all.  It was never my intent to be labelled a troll, but in coming to enemy territory I guess its the nature of the business.  

I like college football a lot.  I like coming here because some of your posters are the most intelligent football people around and some others are pretty damn funny.

As the "enemy" I didn't think you would mind some good natured ribbing, I can take it.  I have been for 20 years.  Clearly I was incorrect on this assumption.  Perhaps even a little debate, IE Kelly's Discipline vs Hoke's Discipline, perhaps not.

Clearly all you want is the world through maize colored glasses and thats fine.  I'll sit and lurk and read.  But I just wanted to clear the air a bit and let you know where I am coming from.

Carry on.

PS: As for the rumours of being an old Freep troll handle, there is no substance to that.  Also I wasn't banned from Irish Envy, I gave up dealing with some of the idiots over there who cannot process reality.  I still lurk there.

Good luck in 2 weeks.

As posted in some random-ass thread:

 

I have unilaterally implementing a new rule. Well, I guess the rule isn't NEW so much as it just hasn't been enforced. Either way, it's a thing now, and it's called the Snowflake Rule. The Snowflake Rule is simple: threads that just repeat the same stuff everyone else is thinking are not thread-worthy. Here are some ways to know if you are in violation of the Snowflake Rule:

  • Your thread title begins with the words "My thoughts on," "My opinion regarding," or "What I think about"
  • You cover a topic tat has been covered multiple times on the board or on the front page
  • The evidence supporting your post's hypothesis is entirely (a) opinion and/or (b) empty, high-level, tautological statements like "Denard is fast"
  • Your conclusion is something either obvious or completely opinion-based, like "we will be better if the blockers block people" or "Kalis should play because I think he'd be better." Or, as a totally hypothetical example, "Denard should run because Denard is fast at running."

Bottom line: posting a unique take on things is perfectly acceptable. If you want to post about a proposed defensive alignment or scheme that will allow the line to get better penetration? Knock yourself out. Want to demonstrate why Denard should run more by providing an analysis of past running QBs or of Michigan's success based on various run/pass ratios? We'd like to read it. But posting your take on a common question will get your thread pulled like something from a Weezer song.

Ruling on phallic Blockhams

MODERATE: Image posts of the altered comics, or links to the altered comics that don't clearly let the reader know what they're about to look at.

DON'T MODERATE: References or discussion about it on the board, or the creator's handle unless he breaks other board rules.

Personally I think it's funny and free speech etc. Would rather the creator link to the original every time.

How is this avatar NSFMK?  This is tame as hell compared to about 10 others that show boobie close up of random chicks.  

I am feeling a bit picked on here guys.

What happened?

I try to cut back on mgoblog usage and do some real work and this happens.

FTR, I thought you once had an avatar of a navy bikini top with a gold block M. Was that you? I always thought that was tasteful.

I was thinking it was time to change to another avatar photo of MSRK or of MISS-SRK, but now I'm wondering.

Oh, and in the vein of your wife's website, I continue to lose weight and got below 300 for the first time in a long time (6'3" btw.) Now only 80 - 100 more pounds to go.

Also, what's a bronie?

Take my advice Stephen and

Take my advice Stephen and dont do it.  For reasons that I have yet to get an answer on from anyone, one of the mods decided that the avatar you referenced was too revealing (apparently) and you see what I got instead.  And I'm a bit cheesed off for three reasons:

A.  It wasnt that revealing on any level

B. There are others that are worse...FAR worse...that are allowed to stay up

C. Nobody will tell me why it got popped and what the rationale was tor the popping.

 

PS: Congrats on the weight loss!  That's fantastic - keep it up!!!!!
