So while we're wondering about specifics, how come Playa didn't know what Bedard was talking about when he mentioned a "starter" forum??? Did he forget to read the actual question and what was proposed by it?

Draftboy can talk a face off Mt. Rushmore you're wasting your time Rockstar.
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.
Yeah, I knew there was a reason I stayed out of this forum today.
No but you may have, please bold the part of the Q that says "starter forum"Originally Posted by BlackMetalNinja

If you want to talk about your specific ideas for improving the BZ that is obviously a big concern for one of your own staff members.Originally Posted by MBBedard
I believe Bedard mentioned a "starter" forum because that question basically hints at it. But again, I'm not Bedard or BMN so I'm not sure on this.
Ohh dont let MBB be a kill joy we were actually having a good discussion with neither of us attacking or spinning the other persons.Originally Posted by RockStar36

Well if thats was his intent he needs to frame it better, Playa asked me what he meant and I also had no earthly idea. The context was not there he needed to lay it out better.Originally Posted by RockStar36
If you visited the site it was pretty obvious.
Well that was an obvious disconnect, Im not familiar with that board and either was Playa. You I think said you were.Originally Posted by MBBedard
Visited what site? This is an election about the Billszone not about some Red Sox site.Originally Posted by MBBedard
But the question was in direct regards to that Red Sox site.
Don't you think before answering that question a quick visit to that site would've helped?
The question referred to the red sox site.Originally Posted by DraftBoy
They don't call you tailspin for nothing.
In my opinion (and thats not speaking for Playa) the question was simply referencing another site that the question poser admits he is not a poster of. Now that being said the question in general was related to moderation and how the SOSH board has a heavy hand in that and can/should we use harder moderation to ensure the quality of our board. A newbie/starter board could be a direction to go, but I dont think it was the sole intent of the question either.Originally Posted by RockStar36
Apparently if your candidate says nothing but fluff, they don't need to visit the site.Originally Posted by RockStar36
Ok, I read the question again.
If you read carefully, it doesn't use the term "starter" but it does user "sandbox". You might not know what that means until you read the whole question where it is explained.
The question also related those things to the BZ. While you didn't have to visit the site, a visit could have proved beneficial considering you just admitted that both you and Playa had no idea what it was talking about.
EDIT: Stupid MS PaintOriginally Posted by RockStar36
Anyways my point remains visiting the site still says nothing about the Sandlot forum being a Starter forum, Im sure if you delve into deep into the forum or become a regular post then maybe it does but the board description reads: An area where new visitors to SoSH can participate in Sox Discussion. "Lurker Friendly"!
Further research probably would've helped.
I have never been to that website either, and I knew what it meant.
You think you're hot **** in a champagne glass, but you're really cold diarrhea in a Dixie cup!
