Re: Important: Merging of the Baseball Forums

I'm glad a decision has been reached and announced. It should work just fine.

Let me add my thank you to the moderators - it can be a thankless tak at times

Re: Important: Merging of the Baseball Forums

This is going to be interesting, judging some of the posts I've seen in the Sun Deck.

Re: Important: Merging of the Baseball Forums

I'm guessing game threads will take another step down in quality--as if that were possible

Re: Important: Merging of the Baseball Forums

If anything, there should be more topics up for discussion eh?

Barely above replacement level more often than not.

I think it's great, and a solid idea.

You mods do a phenomenal job IMO. And this helps to simplify the process.

But besides mods having to do their part... every member must also do theirs when it comes to discussing/debating subject matters.

We're all Red (baseball) fans here. It's fine to disagree and debate; but lets keep it on the respectful (and adult) level.

That makes the mod's job a lot easier.

First, thank you everyone for your support of the moderating staff- it means a lot to us!

Second, something to add to GAC's point here... if you see any posts that break the site rules that can be found at the bottom of every page, please report them! We try and read as many posts as we can, but bringing attention to rule-breakers is a big help.

Just adding to what others have said, but the mods rock! Thanks for taking the time to make this place great.

Re: Important: Merging of the Baseball Forums

Excited to see Gallagher-esque posting again, we've gotten too serious over the years for a message board.

Boss/ GIK...a great testament to have this board rocking for so many years, evolving is a critical part of success.

Exactly. You guys can't read them all. You have lives outside of RZ.

Re: Important: Merging of the Baseball Forums

All I can say is, thank you and it's about time. I always thought it was a mistake to have two seperate classes of posters.
