Sabres Fan in NS

The thread title was very inspiring ... no?

Be careful what you wish for, my friend ... LOL!!

I don't believe anyone, especially SDS, has said that we don't have decorum. In fact, he stated the exact opposite. People do bypass the filter with making slight variations to the filtered words. SDS and the mods are well aware of this and have let it slide. Now that we are having much more activity on this board it was brought to his attention by a member and he decided that it was the right time for him, the guy who manages and pays for us to be able to post and read here, that it was the right time to act. There were times over the recent years that there would be fewer than 10 members on line and hours between posts. With the season that the Sabres are having that has changed dramatically.

Yes, but please read his reply to my post that you replied to. That was his whole point. I think that maybe it's time for SDS to lock this puppy. We have a huge game in Tampa to prepare for.

I think we all should.

I think that our very well respected darksabre is going a bit too far on this, but he does have a point. SDS stated, not in the OP, that the complaint was filed because the complaintants kid visits the board, presumably reading posts and that he wants us as a community to be approachable by all ages and genders, or something like that.

Also, Canadian, Russian, Yugoslav ...

I understand. I like you as a poster and understand your style of posting. I agree that you and others use of profane language are not obscene, as far as I can tell anyway. Also, initially you are correct the filter just eliminated the bad words and left blanks to the imagination. That was not ideal and Scott fixed that.

I believe SDS made things perfectly clear in his opening post.

What about GoPuckYourself?

Maybe, just maybe, we should also try to not use words that need to be filtered anyway. I get that most of the time, I assume, they just come out in the heat of battle during a game.

Everybody is really having fun and enjoying this. The players, the fans and even the coaches.

I just skimmed the whole thread and see that I have not posted in it. I think it was started and active during Ramadan. Anyway, I think he is really doing a bangup job, as they say in Jolly Ol' England.

Josie, Awesome new avatar and I really like that you like goalies named Carter. Fantastic play, there!! (in my best Bob Cole voice ... who, sadly, is in his last season on HNIC).

Welcome!! Tell me, is your Knighthood for real, or fake, kind of like Sir Elton, or Sir Paul? I have been trying to get my Queen to Knight me, even a fake one like Elton, or Paul, and she just ignores me.

SDS, who runs this site has asked nicely and only because the issue was brought to his attention by a member here. In the end SDS will decide what is allowed and what isn't, if we can't just simply behave a little bit better.

Hey Matt, Where and what is OP?

BOOMER!! Enjoy your few days with the dark one.

BOOM!! We'll see you in a few days.

Hey Josie, If it makes it easier for you feel free to use my all-encompasing ... The Great Satan ... when talking about Toronto.

How does one go over to another teams message board and troll, er, I mean post?

He made a Norris Trophy winner look like JAG on that goal.

Hey, hey, hey , hey ... My countryman. Very cool.

Welcome!! We are not that bad a bunch around here.

TB lost too, so we are very much in the clear this morning. Huge game coming up. Dare I say ... playoff atmosphere.
