The Rules of Pacers Digest

Hello everyone,

Whether your are a long standing forum member or whether you have just registered today, it's a good idea to read and review the rules below so that you have a very good idea of what to expect when you come to Pacers Digest.

A quick note to new members: Your posts will not immediately show up when you make them. An administrator has to approve at least your first post before the forum software will later upgrade your account to the status of a fully-registered member. This usually happens within a couple of hours or so after your post(s) is/are approved, so you may need to be a little patient at first.

Why do we do this? So that it's more difficult for spammers (be they human or robot) to post, and so users who are banned cannot immediately re-register and start dousing people with verbal flames.

Below are the rules of Pacers Digest. After you have read them, you will have a very good sense of where we are coming from, what we expect, what we don't want to see, and how we react to things.

Rule #1

Pacers Digest is intended to be a place to discuss basketball without having to deal with the kinds of behaviors or attitudes that distract people from sticking with the discussion of the topics at hand. These unwanted distractions can come in many forms, and admittedly it can sometimes be tricky to pin down each and every kind that can rear its ugly head, but we feel that the following examples and explanations cover at least a good portion of that ground and should at least give people a pretty good idea of the kinds of things we actively discourage:

"Anyone who __________ is a liar / a fool / an idiot / a blind homer / has their head buried in the sand / a blind hater / doesn't know basketball / doesn't watch the games"

"People with intelligence will agree with me when I say that __________"

"Only stupid people think / believe / do ___________"

"I can't wait to hear something from PosterX when he/she sees that **insert a given incident or current event that will have probably upset or disappointed PosterX here**"

"He/she is just delusional"

"This thread is stupid / worthless / embarrassing"

"I'm going to take a moment to point and / laugh at PosterX / GroupOfPeopleY who thought / believed *insert though/belief here*"

"Remember when PosterX said OldCommentY that no longer looks good? "

In general, if a comment goes from purely on topic to something 'ad hominem' (personal jabs, personal shots, attacks, flames, however you want to call it, towards a person, or a group of people, or a given city/state/country of people), those are most likely going to be found intolerable.

We also dissuade passive aggressive behavior. This can be various things, but common examples include statements that are basically meant to imply someone is either stupid or otherwise incapable of holding a rational conversation. This can include (but is not limited to) laughing at someone's conclusions rather than offering an honest rebuttal, asking people what game they were watching, or another common problem is Poster X will say "that player isn't that bad" and then Poster Y will say something akin to "LOL you think that player is good". We're not going to tolerate those kinds of comments out of respect for the community at large and for the sake of trying to just have an honest conversation.

Now, does the above cover absolutely every single kind of distraction that is unwanted? Probably not, but you should by now have a good idea of the general types of things we will be discouraging. The above examples are meant to give you a good feel for / idea of what we're looking for. If something new or different than the above happens to come along and results in the same problem (that being, any other attitude or behavior that ultimately distracts from actually just discussing the topic at hand, or that is otherwise disrespectful to other posters), we can and we will take action to curb this as well, so please don't take this to mean that if you managed to technically avoid saying something exactly like one of the above examples that you are then somehow off the hook.

That all having been said, our goal is to do so in a generally kind and respectful way, and that doesn't mean the moment we see something we don't like that somebody is going to be suspended or banned, either. It just means that at the very least we will probably say something about it, quite possibly snipping out the distracting parts of the post in question while leaving alone the parts that are actually just discussing the topics, and in the event of a repeating or excessive problem, then we will start issuing infractions to try to further discourage further repeat problems, and if it just never seems to improve, then finally suspensions or bans will come into play. We would prefer it never went that far, and most of the time for most of our posters, it won't ever have to.

A slip up every once and a while is pretty normal, but, again, when it becomes repetitive or excessive, something will be done. Something occasional is probably going to be let go (within reason), but when it starts to become habitual or otherwise a pattern, odds are very good that we will step in.

There's always a small minority that like to push people's buttons and/or test their own boundaries with regards to the administrators, and in the case of someone acting like that, please be aware that this is not a court of law, but a private website run by people who are simply trying to do the right thing as they see it. If we feel that you are a special case that needs to be dealt with in an exceptional way because your behavior isn't explicitly mirroring one of our above examples of what we generally discourage, we can and we will take atypical action to prevent this from continuing if you are not cooperative with us.

Also please be aware that you will not be given a pass simply by claiming that you were 'only joking,' because quite honestly, when someone really is just joking, for one thing most people tend to pick up on the joke, including the person or group that is the target of the joke, and for another thing, in the event where an honest joke gets taken seriously and it upsets or angers someone, the person who is truly 'only joking' will quite commonly go out of his / her way to apologize and will try to mend fences. People who are dishonest about their statements being 'jokes' do not do so, and in turn that becomes a clear sign of what is really going on. It's nothing new.

In any case, quite frankly, the overall quality and health of the entire forum's community is more important than any one troublesome user will ever be, regardless of exactly how a problem is exhibiting itself, and if it comes down to us having to make a choice between you versus the greater health and happiness of the entire community, the community of this forum will win every time.

Lastly, there are also some posters, who are generally great contributors and do not otherwise cause any problems, who sometimes feel it's their place to provoke or to otherwise 'mess with' that small minority of people described in the last paragraph, and while we possibly might understand why you might feel you WANT to do something like that, the truth is we can't actually tolerate that kind of behavior from you any more than we can tolerate the behavior from them. So if we feel that you are trying to provoke those other posters into doing or saying something that will get themselves into trouble, then we will start to view you as a problem as well, because of the same reason as before: The overall health of the forum comes first, and trying to stir the pot with someone like that doesn't help, it just makes it worse. Some will simply disagree with this philosophy, but if so, then so be it because ultimately we have to do what we think is best so long as it's up to us.

If you see a problem that we haven't addressed, the best and most appropriate course for a forum member to take here is to look over to the left of the post in question. See underneath that poster's name, avatar, and other info, down where there's a little triangle with an exclamation point (!) in it? Click that. That allows you to report the post to the admins so we can definitely notice it and give it a look to see what we feel we should do about it. Beyond that, obviously it's human nature sometimes to want to speak up to the poster in question who has bothered you, but we would ask that you try to refrain from doing so because quite often what happens is two or more posters all start going back and forth about the original offending post, and suddenly the entire thread is off topic or otherwise derailed. So while the urge to police it yourself is understandable, it's best to just report it to us and let us handle it. Thank you!

All of the above is going to be subject to a case by case basis, but generally and broadly speaking, this should give everyone a pretty good idea of how things will typically / most often be handled.

Rule #2

If the actions of an administrator inspire you to make a comment, criticism, or express a concern about it, there is a wrong place and a couple of right places to do so.

The wrong place is to do so in the original thread in which the administrator took action. For example, if a post gets an infraction, or a post gets deleted, or a comment within a larger post gets clipped out, in a thread discussing Paul George, the wrong thing to do is to distract from the discussion of Paul George by adding your off topic thoughts on what the administrator did.

The right places to do so are:

A) Start a thread about the specific incident you want to talk about on the Feedback board. This way you are able to express yourself in an area that doesn't throw another thread off topic, and this way others can add their two cents as well if they wish, and additionally if there's something that needs to be said by the administrators, that is where they will respond to it.

B) Send a private message to the administrators, and they can respond to you that way.

If this is done the wrong way, those comments will be deleted, and if it's a repeating problem then it may also receive an infraction as well.

Rule #3

If a poster is bothering you, and an administrator has not or will not deal with that poster to the extent that you would prefer, you have a powerful tool at your disposal, one that has recently been upgraded and is now better than ever: The ability to ignore a user.

When you ignore a user, you will unfortunately still see some hints of their existence (nothing we can do about that), however, it does the following key things:

A) Any post they make will be completely invisible as you scroll through a thread.

B) The new addition to this feature: If someone QUOTES a user you are ignoring, you do not have to read who it was, or what that poster said, unless you go out of your way to click on a link to find out who it is and what they said.

To utilize this feature, from any page on Pacers Digest, scroll to the top of the page, look to the top right where it says 'Settings' and click that. From the settings page, look to the left side of the page where it says 'My Settings', and look down from there until you see 'Edit Ignore List' and click that. From here, it will say 'Add a Member to Your List...' Beneath that, click in the text box to the right of 'User Name', type in or copy & paste the username of the poster you are ignoring, and once their name is in the box, look over to the far right and click the 'Okay' button. All done!

Rule #4

Regarding infractions, currently they carry a value of one point each, and that point will expire in 31 days. If at any point a poster is carrying three points at the same time, that poster will be suspended until the oldest of the three points expires.

Rule #5

When you share or paste content or articles from another website, you must include the URL/link back to where you found it, who wrote it, and what website it's from. Said content will be removed if this doesn't happen.

An example:

If I copy and paste an article from the Indianapolis Star website, I would post something like this:

http://www.linktothearticlegoeshere.com/article
Title of the Article
Author's Name
Indianapolis Star

Rule #6

We cannot tolerate illegal videos on Pacers Digest. This means do not share any links to them, do not mention any websites that host them or link to them, do not describe how to find them in any way, and do not ask about them. Posts doing anything of the sort will be removed, the offenders will be contacted privately, and if the problem becomes habitual, you will be suspended, and if it still persists, you will probably be banned.

The legal means of watching or listening to NBA games are NBA League Pass Broadband (for US, or for International; both cost money) and NBA Audio League Pass (which is free). Look for them on NBA.com.

Rule #7

Provocative statements in a signature, or as an avatar, or as the 'tagline' beneath a poster's username (where it says 'Member' or 'Administrator' by default, if it is not altered) are an unwanted distraction that will more than likely be removed on sight. There can be shades of gray to this, but in general this could be something political or religious that is likely going to provoke or upset people, or otherwise something that is mean-spirited at the expense of a poster, a group of people, or a population.

It may or may not go without saying, but this goes for threads and posts as well, particularly when it's not made on the off-topic board (Market Square).

We do make exceptions if we feel the content is both innocuous and unlikely to cause social problems on the forum (such as wishing someone a Merry Christmas or a Happy Easter), and we also also make exceptions if such topics come up with regards to a sports figure (such as the Lance Stephenson situation bringing up discussions of domestic abuse and the law, or when Jason Collins came out as gay and how that lead to some discussion about gay rights).

However, once the discussion seems to be more/mostly about the political issues instead of the sports figure or his specific situation, the thread is usually closed.

Rule #8

We prefer self-restraint and/or modesty when making jokes or off topic comments in a sports discussion thread. They can be fun, but sometimes they derail or distract from a topic, and we don't want to see that happen. If we feel it is a problem, we will either delete or move those posts from the thread.

Rule #9

Generally speaking, we try to be a "PG-13" rated board, and we don't want to see sexual content or similarly suggestive content. Vulgarity is a more muddled issue, though again we prefer things to lean more towards "PG-13" than "R". If we feel things have gone too far, we will step in.

Rule #10

We like small signatures, not big signatures. The bigger the signature, the more likely it is an annoying or distracting signature.

Rule #11

Do not advertise anything without talking about it with the administrators first. This includes advertising with your signature, with your avatar, through private messaging, and/or by making a thread or post.

    Re: The Pacers have never had that one player

    3ptmiller, after I read your posts in this thread, I was so pissed off... I ran outside and gave some old lady a roundhouse kick to the face.

    You can't be older than 13 or 14, I just can't believe you are, seriously.

    Michael Jordan was the greatest shooter/scorer/shooting guard to ever play the game of basketball. He was god in Nike's. He dominated both sides of the ball. There will never be another. Stats and biographical excerpts are not needed, for this is common logic.

    To even put Reggie's game in comparison to MJ's... is just blatant disrespect and lack of knowledge of and for the game of basketball. Reggie Miller's shot was better than Michael Jordan's? Are you out of your mind? Michael Jordan's stroke was textbook. Hell, if anything, Reggie's little jumping jack leg flapping bombs were unorthodox and irregular. To even label Michael Jordan as a slasher is blasphemy. You're talking about the man who created the fadeaway, the man who possessed the greatest post up game outside of a big man in NBA history. You're talking about a man widely considered to be the most clutch player to ever play the game... who's game winners were all jumpshots. Sure, he revolutionized the dunk. Sure, he was unbelievably creative in the air. I mean, he'd drive in on 2 guys, jump over one, get bumped mid air by the other, fall backwards to the floor and throw up a prayer that would always swish the net. That was Michael Jordan. That was godlyness.
    College scouts used to say the jumper was his biggest flaw right around the time he was ready to come out.
    Ask Georgetown what they think of Michael Jordan's jumper.

    Fact is, Michael Jordan was the most well rounded, dominating force to ever pick up a basketball. He's the golden standard. 6 reasons.

    Reggie Miller was a great 3 point shooter and a great competitor who ran around screens like it was a hobby.

    Big difference.

            Re: The Pacers have never had that one player

            When I started the thread, my point was that Jermaine O'Neal must elevate his basketball game and his leadership in order for the Pacers to ever win a championship.

            I'd like to hear some more insight into that.

            I never intended for this to become a Reggie-Jordan debate(I thought anyone who'd ever watched the game knew that Jordan was a far superior player)

              Welcome! Another Reggie hater, just what we needed in this board!

              Feel better now?

              You can't be older than 13 or 14, I just can't believe you are, seriously.
              Very mature from you.... but i dont blame you since you dont know im a Foreigner. But anyways, Im from Yugoslavia, i live in Sweden.. my english is not the best language i speak from my 6 languages... im sorry!

              Michael Jordan was the greatest shooter/scorer/shooting guard to ever play the game of basketball. He was god in Nike's. He dominated both sides of the ball. There will never be another. Stats and biographical excerpts are not needed, for this is common logic.
              Yes he is and i didnt say anything else? Maybe you should read every post i had in this thread before

              To even put Reggie's game in comparison to MJ's...
              I never put Reggies game in comparasion to MJ`s, its just a fact that Reggie is a more accurate shooter...

              is just blatant disrespect and lack of knowledge of and for the game of basketball.
              go in to http://www.basketligan.se Thats the top League in Sweden and look for my name and stats Adnan Chuk, 14 years of experience... Top shooter in entire Sweden... i aint playing games for 1-2 months i have a sprained ankle. I think u get the point...

              Reggie Miller's shot was better than Michael Jordan's?
              Yup, just 14% more from FT Line, just 11% more Accuracy from 3PT Land and just 2000 more 3PTs Made...

              Are you out of your mind?
              Yea i must be, since im replying to this stupid post...

              Michael Jordan's stroke was textbook.
              It was aight, but thats not the subject overhere...

              Hell, if anything, Reggie's little jumping jack leg flapping bombs were unorthodox and irregular.
              Oh really, seems to work for me...

              To even label Michael Jordan as a slasher is blasphemy. You're talking about the man who created the fadeaway, the man who possessed the greatest post up game outside of a big man in NBA history.

              Ask Georgetown what they think of Michael Jordan's jumper.
              No really? I didnt knew that! Please tell me more! Ive just been a Fan of him since 1988... I mean, how can i know that?

              Fact is, Michael Jordan was the most well rounded, dominating force to ever pick up a basketball. He's the golden standard. 6 reasons.
              Ah ok, now i know that...

              Reggie Miller was a great 3 point shooter and a great competitor who ran around screens like it was a hobby.
              Big difference.
              Yea it makes a big difference when all this come from a Jordan/Bulls fanatic.


              Conclusion: It seems like you didnt actually read a post at all from me.. and this could be a misunderstanding from you (a HUGE one).
              I never said that Reggie was a better player nor tryed to somekind off compare them two... i just said that Reggie was a more Accurate shooter (notice the "accurate") and Reggie was a "shooter" (literally speaking), he was the best Player from SG Position based on distance Shooting accuracy and efficiency (notice the "shoot", which means he only shoots)... I never compared MJ to him, nobody could get compared to MJ.... except in the Things he couldnt overpower, and 3PT Shooting is one thing and Accuracy, FT Accuracy... I am sorry but your "Jordie" was never a more accurate shooter than Reggie. Look, its just better for you to say to me "Reggie Sux & Jordan Rulez" so i stop wasting my time instead of you saying that Jordan was a more accurate shooter than Regg... can we now plz stop comparing these two? Thanx

                Exactly, people seems to not find that interesting i guess... They would like more to upset me by saying how Sucky Reggie is and how more Accurate /3PT/FT/Shooter Jordan really is... world has gone mad!

                  Usually, people who break apart posts sentence by sentence have only but two motives to do so. One being to counter everything the author of the post had stated, the other being to take all things said out of context in order to save face in a lost cause. While you might've thought your response warranted the first of the motives, I didn't read past "Very mature from you.... but i dont blame you since you dont know im a Foreigner. But anyways, Im from Yugoslavia, i live in Sweden.. my english is not the best language i speak from my 6 languages... im sorry!".
                  Forget the fact that you actually thought I was attacking you like you stole my sneakers with the "grandma punching" line, when in fact... I was just joking around.
                  Forget the fact that you assumed the same thing on my "age assumption". That doesn't matter. What matters is that I now know that your knowledge of Michael Jordan extends only as far as the copy of "Space Jam: Yugoslavian Edition" you have on DVD.
                  I can get past the falty english, I can't however get past that whole "common sense" angle.

                  Conclusion.
                  I'm right, you're wrong.
                  I'm not a blind Jordan follower, nor am I a Reggie hater. I loved the way Reggie played the game, I have the utmost respect for him. <3 Reggie <3 yay!

                        Ok, It's settled.

                        Reggie is a better 3 point and free throw shooter then MJ.

                        MJ wins in all other categories.

One being to counter everything the author of the post had stated, the other being to take all things said out of context in order to save face in a lost cause. While you might've thought your response warranted the first of the motives, I didn't read past "Very mature from you.... but i dont blame you since you dont know im a Foreigner. But anyways, Im from Yugoslavia, i live in Sweden.. my english is not the best language i speak from my 6 languages... im sorry!".
                          Forget the fact that you actually thought I was attacking you like you stole my sneakers with the "grandma punching" line, when in fact... I was just joking around.
                          Forget the fact that you assumed the same thing on my "age assumption". That doesn't matter. What matters is that I now know that your knowledge of Michael Jordan extends only as far as the copy of "Space Jam: Yugoslavian Edition" you have on DVD.
                          I can get past the falty english, I can't however get past that whole "common sense" angle.

                          Conclusion.
                          I'm right, you're wrong.
                          I'm not a blind Jordan follower, nor am I a Reggie hater. I loved the way Reggie played the game, I have the utmost respect for him. <3 Reggie <3 yay!
                          Look, i really thought you joked before or misunderstanded me.. Still you insulted me and i posted back very nicely and tryed to get to see how u are on the next post... and again you post back very disrespectfull. But now i realise that you are very stubborn person and very disrespectfull... The only way for me and you to still be good to each other is if i Put you on my Ignore list (finally gets handy). Ah well enjoy the time here, have fun... and Yes you WIN, you are right. I mean, what do i know im just a Yugoslavian right? Jordan is a more accurate FT shooter, more accurate 3PT shooter, had more 3PTs made, had more Clutch shots made from 3PT Land... He is much Cuter, He got bigger pe***. You win indeeeeeed... so immature.

                            Three pointers made doesn't actually count seeing as how he also attempted the most in NBA history..So..Technically he is a better FT and 3-point shooter. You can't say he's a better clutch 3 point shooter because that means your giving him an extra category..Thats like me saying that MJ was a better 2 point clutch shooter or a better clutch rebounder..or a clutch assister..you see where I'm going with this. Nobody is saying Reggie isn't great..He's proven he's one of the most potent and deadly outside shooters in NBA history..But MJ did everything..He may not have been as great of an outside and stand still shooter than Reggie..But he had all the other intangibles..All-Star..Excellent Defender..MVP..Finals MVP.

                            I know if you plugged Reggie in MJ's place in Chicago, He would have some rings as well..But MJ was a much better all around player then Reg..and this is coming from a Reggie fan.

                              Look you guys, im sick and tired of this... i never compared MJ to Reggie and i DONT want to compare MJ to Reggie because its something that no Human brain can do ok? ALL i said was that Reggie was a more Accurate Shooter (and i mean just from any distance), this is the only thing i can fight about against anybody who thinks something else.. and thats what i did! And MJ was only an example just to show you what Difference Reggie has against him...

                              And now i am exhausted talking first to a Detroit Fan then a Pacer Fan who dislikes Reggie and then a Bulls/Jordan Fan/Reggie hater flamer or troll (god knows) and then all of them together... and then some other Pacer Fans jumped in disagreed with me... I mean? Does actually NOBODY think that Reggie was a more accurate shooter than MJ? What year is this? What planet am i on?

                              This is so off-topic and we are disrespectfull to this Thread Creator... sorry pacerfanAdam
