Here is something I have noticed.

It is kind of odd this board doesn't mind cussing in some form, has MSU fans and OM fans, and is still so much more pleasant than the boards over there on Gene's Page. There is almost no bickering and much fewer slide remarks between posters here and I am yet to see any censorship.

The censorship over there seems to have deteriorated the entire site, IMO. It doesn't seem like too many people are over there. This site has more conversation than all three of the main pages including the free forum. Censorship is on each board in it's own unique form. The recruiting page censors information that contradicts the news the administrators put out and covers up stories they don't want to write. The free board does some of the same and eliminates free fans from other schools when the purpose of that site is for all fans to talk. All other team free boards are far more open. LSU and Alabama fans have great conversation along with the slight poking.

Steve and Gene also instigate personal attacks against themselves from the opposite fans because they have unreasonably and rudely booted them from their site at some time or another, sometimes more than once. And they do it for the most silliest of reasons so often.

Censorship is at it's core over there. "MSU fans only" is it primarily rule. I know MSU fans are on Chucks and Yancy's board. Very very rarely are they eliminated. The OM fans take care of them themselves just as the MSU fans take care on this board. Each board I notice only a few continually try to stoke people up. Those types only post in waves before they quite down. This board and Chuck's are the best and most active by far for each team.

Every sports message board has its own unspoken set of rules, along with the "official" ones. What I like about SixPack is that when I state a personal opinion, the trashing comes from the opinion, NOT attacking me personally.

Slide Remarks

much fewer slide remarks between posters here and I am yet to see any censorship.

I've got a few slide remarks for you......

1. Water slides are the best and if they corkscrew....even better.

2. Hot metal slides are the worst. Especially if you are wearing shorts.

3. Sliding into home is nice.

4. Sliders are good with spicy mustard.

DS might dispute this, but I think this board does a helluva job at self-regulation.

Nice try ...

I know MSU fans are on Chucks and Yancy's board. Very very rarely are they eliminated. The OM fans take care of them themselves just as the MSU fans take care on this board. Each board I notice only a few continually try to stoke people up. Those types only post in waves before they quite down. This board and Chuck's are the best and most active by far for each team.

to suckup here BUT this post is complete and total BS. I was baned from posting on Spirit three years ago when I had the nerve to post that Nutt was not going to be able to get all his commits in school. And, yea ... it turned out that I was 100% correct.

I never cussed or used bad language; I made zero personal attacks. I did get a PM from a mod saying I would be getting permissions back after signing day but that was 3 years ago and I still don't have it.

The 'one and only' username that I have ever used on Gene's, Eggbowl, Spirit, Rant, NAFOOM, SIXPACK, plus others is 'BiscuitEater'. The one and only board that I have ever been booted from is the Spirit.

The pay boards are tough to read sometimes.

I guess that a lot of the folks that pay money and post have an expectation that the news you read is mainly positive or that your opinion should always be valued. If the board isn't heavily censored, then it just turns into constant bitching between the "we suck at everything" folks and the sunshine pumpers - an battle neither is ever going to win. You can't even state a fact without folks bitching sometimes. Just this morning I mentioned that our recruiting class from last year was below average, by SEC standards. I got bitched at for spewing out crap despite it being a fact that our class was bottom-half of the SEC per that board's rating system.

On the other hand, here it is free to post. Nothing other than stubbornness will keep you around if you don't like what you see.
