Folks, if you have concerns about the behavior of a particular poster, please make us aware privately.
I promise it will be looked into as quickly as possible. Thanks.

If that's your take away, then I'll assume you're telling the truth that you've only read a few convos.
And I'm not the one asking for the mods to do anything about him, he doesn't bother me at all.
Really? Every single thing Nathan writes is intended as bait. He couldn't be more transparent about it.
That said, I also agree he's not very good at it. I admit he bothered me at first, but now I find him extremely amusing because I have no idea why he keeps at it after the constant beatings he gets.
Well Nathan can now be talked about in the past tense

My guess is he'll be back under a different name, and we'll all figure it out by his second post.

I'd go back and dig up the screen name of someone who's been banned but it's late, I'm tired and it's not worth the effort in any event.
The answer is no one.
That said, you're not the first person who's asked, though, and TBH I find the paranoia pretty odd.

It's a little game we long-timers play. It is quite odd though, you're right.

Is there a reason why morons like this DURDURTROLL maggot doesn't have his posts deleted after he gets the heave ho?
I have to be subjected to the full douchebaggery of his lack of intelligence for weeks on end?

I'm glad the mods catch these zipper heads quickly, but to have their posts live into infinity is disgusting.

I think it's funny that those bother you so much -- you're fired up today.
this whole thread is hysterical actually.
Are you this seriously fired up over that guy? That's a trolls modus operandi.
To get you worked up is to "feed the troll". It's a game they love to play.
Just put him on ignore and move on.
BTW...Nothing on the internet lives into infinity. When the batch job runs to archive these posts in a year, it will basically be removed from the record.
Maybe not forever and I'm not sure when the forum started under this name but this came up from 2002 on a quick google search. And that doesn't even take into account waybackmachine. I don't really care how long things live but I'm just curious about what you mean removed from the record. http://forums.nyyfans.com/showthread.php?t=32814
Look.
The guy gets nuked. Why shouldn't his posts get nuked along with him?

But then I wouldn't have gotten my morning giggle.This is a good point
Let's talk in 10 years and see if they still have the archive for 2002. Set your clock.
Eventually all data of this type becomes irrelevant. I am surprised they would keep discussions from 2002 around.
It only exists as long as the owners of the board wish it to exist assuming it hasn't proliferated across the web.
But every once in a while I like to go back and read some of the posts from RIYankee23, or remind myself of the all-time greatest thread titles from sabermet prospectus.

The offending post - yes.
But, for arguement sake, it'd be a bit tougher to nuke my 13,000+ posts as opposed to this guys 6. And all 6 of them (I think) were against CS...
And if you look in one of the threads, a post has been changed to
"Not Allowed"...
That's all that needs to happen.

Effy - Someone may have years of good posts and then get banned - I don't think they should delete the old posts.
Only the offending posts should be nuked.

(as I said early)
And they don't have to be deleted from anything - just change/edited to "Not Allowed".
Simple enough.
And I've seen that done before.

yes, it's pretty common for the "straw that breaks the camel's back" to get edited. However.. not a huge deal. Usually this is done if it's caught early and hasn't been quoted too much, or if the post itself is some sort of inappropriate advertisement for sales.
I just voted for Steve Karsay.
I just want to say flymick showed a special talent for dealing with trolls. We should have an "Alert Flymick to Troll" button next to the "Report Bad Post" button.

Jim - Thanks for all your time, effort, money and spirit over the years. I'm not sure, based on your message, if you're going to be part of the site going forward but I really appreciate what you've given us over the last 11 seasons. Kudos to you, my friend.
Can we change the name of "Player PerformanceThreads" to "Player Performance Threads" (space added) ?
But then where would we put the performancethreads?
