    FYI

    Buffalo Bills Zone
    NOTICE - READ BEFORE POSTING HERE:
    This is the holy grail of Bills forums. We talk about the Bills and the NFL in here. If you can not post without personal insults, getting off-topic, posting expressly to incite other posters, and repeatedly posting the same crap over and over, you may be restricted from posting in this forum without notice. We have rededicated ourselves to policing this forum with a vengeance. If you feel the need to slam others or talk smack, we have other forums available for exactly that purpose. Remember, you are not bigger than the Buffalo Bills. Let's talk football!


    Guys (and girls), it's ok for fans of other teams to engage in discussion about their teams on this board. We welcome fans of all teams to post on this message board.
    If you aren't interested in reading what they have to say, don't read the threads.
    If you choose to read the threads, please don't post a reply unless you have something meaningful to say that contributes to the discussion.
    Bashing the fans of other teams makes us, as a whole, appear immature and close-minded.

    Thanks.

    Thumbs up Re: FYI

    You're right.

    We should stick to seal clubbing some of our brain dead fans first.

    Re: FYI

    I'm sorry, but I agree with EE on this one.

    I can't stand when people come here to talk about the Jets.

    I agree! Sorry Shelby, If we're not playing their team this weekend, we don't want them here, tell them to go to the smack zone.
    We'll handle them there, according to how they're acting.
    The boards have been great lately, all BILLS talk, and no problems.
    Then Jet fan posts, and it's troubles again.

    Shelby, my poll showed that this is pretty much split down the middle.

    All the Bills fans don't like it.

    All the fin, jet and pat trolls like it.

    My point exactly.

    We are being so overrun with fin trolls, it's not even funny.

    It's because we've got such a great board, and the trolls teams don't,
    they come here to talk about their teams, and take advantage of ours.
    It's fine if they're talking about an upcoming game against them, but we don't need them coming here talking troll football. It causes problems obviously.

    Re: FYI

    What you are not realizing is that you don't have to read their threads if you aren't interested in the discussion.

    Driving away posters because they aren't Bills fans does this message board a huge disservice.

    If you look at a list of donors to the site, you will notice that several Dolphins fans support the Zone financially. Should we not make them feel welcome here when they are willing to spend their hard earned money to support our site?

    Welcome the 2 fin fans who pay and chase away Bills fans. Great idea.

    I'd pay just to club any obnoxious Finfans on here, let them stay. Hell, cut the price so more will come.

    How does this chase away Bills fans? I'm a Bills fan and I am not about to go anywhere.
    If you don't post on a thread you don't like, it increases the likelihood that it will simply pass down the list and be forgotten forever.
    I read a silly Jets fan post recently and I don't think there is any permanent damage.

    Double E, instead of *****ing, don't read threads posted by non Bills fans.

    You ***** for the sake of *****ing.

    now piss off if your not hear to talk about the bills or something that relates to the bills.. if you want to read jets crap.. go to the jets board.

    if you want to talk bills, regardless of what team your a fan of, then fine.. post here.

    the fans of other teams that post here like NE39 and a few select fish fans, they post about the bills and actually contribute to the purpose of the site.

    Let the fishtrolls that pay, chase away the bums that will ruin things for them.
    the Mods should send all trolls directly to the NFL zone, then the BILLSfans(whoever they are) that want to talk to the trolls, know where they are.
    And our main board stays clean from the lowlife trolls.
    A jerk troll could donate, and then he has the right to start problems on our board.
    Money talks here, or what?
    Seperating the scumbags from our main board will make you moderaters jobs a lot easier. Send them to the smack or nfl zone, done!

    No, Tatonka, those are not forums. Those are lists of all the message boards for all the NFL teams. No one can post in there. So...any NFL related posts will be made in the BillsZone, because that's the only forum available that is strictly football related. Deal with it.
    As i said, if a thread isn't about the Bills, don't read it. Problem solved.
