You're always going to have a handful of people that disagree with the rules or enforcement of them, but I don't see anything subjective about them. I do agree with your point about the small, repeated rude behavior and that's probably something we need to look into more carefully and frequently to the extent that the moderators' free times allows. Thanks again...
Thanks for the reply. It was something that popped into my head after posting to the RZ and mowing the grass. The idea may not work for this site, but it did not take much of my time. Psychology is my field and social interaction is what I think about much of the time.

May Redzone become an empire of Redleg discussion.

Is there a reason I can't post on the Politics forum?

You need to opt in. Some folks found it a distraction to reds discussion.

Thanks. I was trying to find the threads to the changes but never went to that forum.

Yes, but any of the admins/moderators can approve it, so it shouldn't take long at all. Currently, we don't have anyone in the queue.

I think he's asking if its possible that someone might try to opt-in but be told no.....

Oh...if that's the case, unless the user was previously banned from that sub-forum, then no, they wouldn't be rejected.

Re: Site Feedback/Questions

Haven't been posting long and my profile shows a total of five posts. It should be 22. Not that big of a deal but I'm interested in gaining ORG access in the future so I want to keep and accurate count. Can I get this corrected?

Boise, game thread posts are not included in total post count. Looking at your past posts, this seems to be your issue.

Re: Site Feedback/Questions

I've never understood why game thread posts don't count. Can somebody explain that to me?

Post count is one of two requirements to apply for ORG posting access and we feel posts in the game threads along the lines of "Bruce!" (following a HR) should not count towards that total.
