A Couple of Things

**Beef** · 09-21-2006, 07:37 PM

There has been some complaining about the way that certain threads get closed. Just because this is a FREE Site (and will always be) doesn't give a user the right to break the rules as He/She please. We have a set of rules that must be followed. Click Here to see the Rules. With this being said, many of the rules have constantly been broken by members and instead of suspending such member, as a Staff we have decided to warn and then close the tread to keep it from getting worse.

Some rules that have been broken include:

1. Threatening, Taunting, Swearing at, or Abusing another member is not allowed!
10.No Discussions of anyone's personal life
11. Do not try to impersonate any individuals. This means don't pretend you are a so and so coach or player
10.No Discussions of anyone's personal life
11. Do not try to impersonate any individuals. This means don't pretend you are a so and so coach or player.

With that being said, you can see why many threads have been closed lately. If we cannot stay mature in a thread and act as Adults and young adults that we are here, then is will be closed. This is the quickest way to get a thread closed is to be immature and get off topic. Threads that are off topic will usually get one warning to get back on topic or be closed.

Fox Sports said it best

Quote: I also, take a great deal of pride in the fact that it contains accurate information and is a place where respect is shown.

Without Fox around, this site would be A LOT different, hard to navigate, and even harder to understand what some threads are talking about. We don't want to be a trashy site, but rather become the best Sports site in KY--as we are well on our way. BlueGrassRivals will NEVER charge for your opinion, but in order to grow and be respected by those all across the state, we need help from all of you.

Thank you for your time,
Beef and the BGR Staff.
