I like WC Bias but he's got to be laughing at this line, i fcuking fell out of my chair when i read this. I'm going to say this at some point in time this week, just gotta find the right occasion. I agree whoremoan tends to grate on peoples nerves but i too consider him part of the check and balance that this place needs.

if whor wouldn't go in and seriously start shit in every single Pac-10 thread it would be one thing. But seriously, I could go in there and post why I think Washington State will beat San Diego State and he will go in there and spout shit out of his piehole about why WSU won't do shit. Not in the way to try and argue with what I said, but rather just degrade everything about WSU or whatever Pac-10 school is being talked about.
This happens every single time, and while I didn't inform a mod about whore's behavior because it's pretty fun to rip him apart in every post he makes, I'm not sure he should've been banned but rather warned to not spam every single thread with the same shit over and over and over again.

WC, although I go back and forth with you, I never have taken myself or anything you said that serious. And no, I was not a kicker.
Conan, on the other hand is another story. And FOR THE RECORD, the only warnings i got from anyone were from Conan warning me that he was going to go tell Wilheim to have me banned. As Gyno said, snitching is for pussies
And as Paradise accurately stated, I never entered anybody's thread and bashed another poster unless my name came out of their mouth first. Bashing a conference is fair game. Someone needs to keep things real around here.
I love how every one gets bent out of shape that I "bash" a conference (which does suck by the way), but nobody makes the reverse thread for those who waive their Pac-10 pom poms. What's the difference?
As for making contributions around here. I know for a fact that I have made more money for lots of people on here with 4 or 5 measly posts on "finds" I made than the snitch who got me banned has posting his lame and biased Pac-10 opinions. I also know that many people posting picks on here either don't bet or bet at the water cooler. This used to be a gambling forum, not a record tracking and pick posting forum for people with a gambling jones but can't win money.
If I am banned, I am banned. I didn't lose any sleep last night. It's a great message to send to the Rx though that snitching is encouraged if you don't like what someone has to say or if you can't handle your business on here.

For the record
The complaint file I have against Whormoan goes back almost two years and is the largest one I have on any poster this side of Omni Frog. I told everyone that we are not going to tolerate bashing and abusive posting in the sports forums. The problem I have trying to be fair is I cannot monitor 300 or so threads that will get started on a regular college football saturday, so basically if you are being abused you have to tell me. Unfortunately like the saying goes it's the squeaky wheel that gets greased.
I have absolutely nothing against whormoan personally but the complaints finally forced me to take as mild of an action as possible. He still has access to the entire forum except CFB for 30 days (he can appeal early if he emails me), he is not on post review or banned in any way from any other forum.
I posted this last week in both football forums, it a version of what I have been posting in the sport forums for the last 18 months.:
The Rx. policy on posting in the Rx.com sport forums: Please help your Mods!!
<HR style="COLOR: #fdde82" SIZE=1>PLEASE show each other at least a small amount of courtesy on a daily basis here in The NFL Forum. Posters engaging in bickering, argueing, ridicule and namecalling will not be tolerated this football season. All of you are here to try to beat your bookies not each other so again please either post productively or use The Rubber Room if you want to be abusive or unfairly critical.
Please help each other or if you can't do that than leave well enough alone posters who you may disagree with. Do not post in other posters threads unless you are posting positively. Treat your fellow posters with respect and courtesy you will receive the same in return.
As most of you know we do not tolerate bashing or ridiculing in any of our sports forums. The Rx.com moderator team depends upon all of you loyal Rx.com posters to report bashing, abusive posting, and un-called for criticism or ridicule by using the "Report Bad Post" icon at bottom left corner of all post boxes. Violaters will be warned, repeat violaters will be placed on post review for a period of at least 14 days. Eventually mutiple bashers who have been warned on several occasions will be banned from the site indefinitely.
Please use the bad post icon to report any bashing or out of line posting - it will be greatly appreciated by The Rx.com Moderator team and will be acted upon promptly and with complete discretion.

All posts have this icon at bottom left.
Remember violators will be warned and if need be immediately placed on post review or given two week bannings in extreme cases..

So in other words if I was the bitch and hit the little "snitch" icon on the screen every time I didn't like one of Conan's posts it would've been him banned and not me. The "squeaky wheel" gets greased or the jailhouse rat? With all due respect Wil, if you have the most complaints on me of any poster that ought to say a lot more about your complainers than it does about me, and I can imagine those myriad of complaints don't come from a myriad of people. And since when does stating opinions on a given team or conference constitute "abusive posting". The abuse only occurs when certain posters mention my name, and yes they get abused. And a 30 day restriction isn't going to change that.
Good. Let's keep it this way, because I sincerely do not intend anything to be taken personally. I'm sure at some point we will meet over twinkies and beer and have a good laugh at all this drama. Maybe it will even be at the '09 superbowl when Pete Carroll gets the Chargers to finally win the big one.
Until then, I will countdown the days and be the first to welcome you back to the college football forum so I can continue to show the world how stupid you are.
Kicker
Whoarmoan
It is not the criticism itself but the way you present it. Constructive criticism in a civil discussion is one thing on the other hand to say something like Reggie Bush sucks balls is another.
Newbies were being run off, veteran posters were leaving the site disgusted with the constant bickering, good cappers taking their wisdom elsewhere. All for what -- so you guys could call each other names.
Sorry that is a lousy business model.

So i suppose if I had said Reggie Bush is the best player ever and is awesome, newbies and veterans would stay and all would be right with the world. The lousy business model is demonstrating that if the message is unpopular it won't be tolerated and that crying pays.
And I suppose I was the only one who made such statements. Or was I the leader in complaints because my posts had a repetitive theme, a theme that is not popular or liked around here in Pac-10 haven. Again, people were only attacked by me if they directly or indirectly referred to me.
So Pac-10 circle jerks make for good business. I get it.

Talk about whining, dam, Whalewager never bitched at all when he got totally banned for two years for being an all around pain in the ass.
The Pac 10 has nothing to do with our business model, having a peaceful poster friendly group of sports forums where posters can exchange views and ideas on ways to beat their bookies without having to argue and constantly defend their opinions from abuse and ridicule is the business model we would like to achieve.
The Rx.com is a huge investment and my job is to keep the peace, unfortunately the mods here are not able to read every thread so we have called upon our posters to help us keep the peace.
For a placekicker you do alot of crying..Man up and do the 30 day bid..
