AnkielBreakers Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 From looking at all of the out of control threads, I had a suggestion for the board. Would it be possible to set limits on the amount of posts anyone could make per week or month? Maybe it could be limited to 30 per month. That way, it forces individuals to really focus on the topics that are important, and to avoid wasteful posting. Also, it would be ideal if there was a rating system whereby individuals could obtain more post amounts with higher ratings. Of course, less posts with a worse rating.

2010andBeyond Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I think limiting the posts of one particular poster would really help things around here. For the first time ever, I have resorted to using the ignore feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLU_Nick Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 @AnkielBreakers - can you amend your post to set it up as a poll. That would at least give some data to those who could make the decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say no limit and use the ignore function when needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billikenbooster Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I have put GD13 on ignore today and it is sooo much nicer. Is there any way we can look at how many on the Board have put certain posters on ignore? I wonder if Tilkowski or GD13 lead the pack? mhg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect it would be a board privacy violation to reveal how many people have blocked a poster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsmith19 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Not only was Gorydaze the one who bashed Zeke in the thread about where he was transferring, but after Zeke's dad showed up to defend him Gorydaze claimed it somehow proved him right. Now Gorydaze brings Zeke up again in another totally unrelated thread, while claiming other people are the reason Zeke keeps being discussed.

Glorydays2013 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I'm done talking about Zeke and all the other 2*s you guys obsess about. Ford is bringing SLU to an era Saint Louis hasn't seen in a long time. Two top 100 recruits for 2017 and more on the way. Different times. I won't waste my breathe on any other 2*s Ford won't look at anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
