I'm confused... (1 Viewer)

[EdwardCat]

I'm pretty sure this forum is for talk about the NFL and not talk about who you are going to start on your *FANTASY* football team. There is a forum to talk about who you are starting or to ask other questions. Maybe I'm wrong, but it really clutters up the board when people are posting topics like "I'm starting Player X." It's obviously a thread looking for confirmation from everyone else that they are making the right decision. Why don't we keep this forum to topics about the NFL and the assistant coach to topics about who you are starting or who you cut, etc. It would also stimulate conversation for those looking for advice about who to start on their team. Is there a moderator out there that can either confirm I'm right or tell me I'm wrong?

You're right, but certain posters know how to skate the system.

Now that is just silly talk.

I think most any thread that relates to a fantasy team belongs on another board. Even talk about 'Worst trades ever' should go there as it's info about fantasy teams. Talking about the fantasy value of a player isn't talking about the NFL. It's talking about whether the player is worthy to be on your team. Just my thoughts.

We have moderators here.This thread is not needed

 

[EdwardCat]

Obviously this thread is needed because there are plenty of inappropriate topics in this forum.

 

[EdwardCat]

I've been coming to this site/forum for almost as long as it's been around.

Oh well, this is just what I expected. The flamers would come out of the holes. Go back guys. You aren't wanted.

Gotta disagree here. The Shark Pool IS to talk about Fantasy Football, not the NFL per se. It's just the team management questions that related to an individual poster that go elsewhere.

Not NFL talk?

Important Note about the Shark Pool:

Threads that are asking for advice on how you should draft or manage your team belong in the Assistant Coach's Forum.

The Shark Pool is reserved for sharing NFL talk and fantasy football strategy discussion.

 

[EdwardCat]

The name of this forum is: The Shark Pool (NFL Talk). Not sure how you could confuse this.

You just have to understand certain posters here have more Brownie points than others. That's the way it is and always will be.

this board is more heavily moderated than any FF site I visit... they do a pretty good job of keeping this stuff to a minimum but if those sort of posts bother you I would suggest , If you can tell by the title they are not appropriate here...DONT OPEN THEM...it is not that hard...also starting a post to complain about them in and of itself adds no football value to this board so i would respectfully suggest that this post is an example of the inappropriate posts that do not belong here.

if it really bothers you that much I would suggest I.M ing a moderator when you spot one and im sure they have been given orders as to how to handle them....

p.s. just my personal prefference but I wish when people post complaining about others post content that they would Clearly label it as such so that I wont open it and spend entirely too much time and effort responding to it....

oh where has my time gone..I wish I had it back

Forgive me for saying "per se" instead of "only"Now, not sure how you could confuse this:

"The Shark Pool is reserved for sharing NFL talk and fantasy football strategy discussion."

I've been here for about 7 years. It's not when it started but I'm not a newbie by any means. I've used various other usernames.

Why won't you answer my question?

He's doing research on how long the board has been around so he can sound like he's been around here all the while.

 

[EdwardCat]

mmmm...more flames

What/who are you hiding from?

 

[EdwardCat]

Beduin: scroll up and you'll see my answer. Sorry you missed it.

 

[shuke]

I think the line between "football talk" and "fantasy talk" is too fine to define.

 

[Mungo Burrows]

at considering this "flames".If you've been around here so long, you'd realize that yours is the most inappropriate non-locked/moved thread on the first page and you'd know that this type of response is to be expected from a post like this. So if you've been around so long, basically this must be a and you got us. Good show.

That would take quite a while, but here's a starting point:Member List

Just sort by join date and check out the first thousand or so

 

[PoolShark]

It's a little tough to keep the "fantasy" aspect out of the talk, since this entire site revolves around FF and a very large (I would venture) percentage of the posters come here to get and/or share info because of its relevance toward FF.

 

[EdwardCat]

It's for fantasy strategy. It's not for "I'm starting Player Z. Do you think I'm crazy?" and then proceed to list the other players they are and aren't starting. Enough said.

If you want to use the REPORT button to point out a post please do so. Starting another thread cluttering up the board isn't helping. Again, use the report button and it will be brought to the attention of a mod much quicker than by starting a new thread complaining about it.
