COMMENT POLICY
i. Stay On Topic
For the sake of clarity, discussions in all threads should remain (to the best of your ability) On Topic (OnT). Posting something Off Topic (OT) in a thread where it doesn't belong is allowed, as long as the major part of that post is OnT. Completely OT posts will be removed!
ii. No offensive usernames or signatures
Try to register with a unique username in order to avoid confusion with established members registered with a similar username.
Signatures are not allowed to link to any offensive pornographic material (this includes pedophilic, zoophilic, and similar paraphilia-related websites), they should also not be used to attack other members' integrity and privacy.
iii. No advertisement and spam
You are not allowed to advertise on this website, nor are you allowed to use this website as a place for fiscal trade between you and other members. However, you may be allowed to link to your own personal blog, even though it may be commercial. Blatant advertisement and spam will be deleted!
iv. No hate-crimes and organised violence against racial groups
This blog will serve to the very nature of its main theme (basketball), featuring discussions related to athlete productivity in collegiate, international, and professional sports. As such, some personal and controversial opinions from some forum members may and probably will be expressed here. Freedom of speech is allowed and encouraged, because this blog is protected by the rights of the 1st amendment.
However, you are not allowed to use this forum as a tool to stir up and organize violent, racially-motivated attacks against other ethnic/racial groups (e.g., hate-crimes).

v. No harassment, severe personal attacks, and/or threats
While name calling like "dumbass," "asshole," and the like will be permitted (when holding discussions with admins and other members), for the sake of a serious and engaging climate, try to avoid using insults as much as possible. Flame fests are a waste of cyberspace and threads with a lot of personal attacks will find their comments' section closed down.
Severe personal attacks of a very objectionable nature as well as excessive harassment is severely discouraged. It will similarly lead to comment deletion.
Oh, and remember guys... Always quality before quantity!
