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.

    Mar 29 00:40:01 <able> ;p~
    Mar 29 00:40:14 <Politician> looks like Miami would be a tough match-up in the playoffs for this team...they've really gotten better at the end of the year
    Mar 29 00:40:18 <able> JO will turn it on, Reg will wake up i hope
    Mar 29 00:40:21 <Hicks> What did you tell us, Sauce?
    Mar 29 00:40:31 <indytoad> Yeah, I think Miami will be tough for anyone
    Mar 29 00:40:33 <TheSauceMaster> this game would be tough
    Mar 29 00:40:39 <TheSauceMaster> for us
    Mar 29 00:40:39 <Hicks> Ron's in the lockerroom being re-taped, he'll be back they said
    Mar 29 00:40:52 <Suaveness> 6-23 from the field for JO and artest combined
    Mar 29 00:40:57 <Hicks> Why would a Heat get a T now?!
    Mar 29 00:40:58 <able> they are not that bad, but i would still welcome them in the playoffs, they make me consider booking a ticket for the finals :P
    Mar 29 00:41:00 <Hicks> on a score for them no less?
    Mar 29 00:41:09 <zxc> still whining about odoms fouls I gues
    Mar 29 00:41:13 <Hicks> REGGIE SCORES

    Mar 29 00:41:51 <Suaveness> reg as 3 assists
    Mar 29 00:41:59 <Suaveness> and missed it
    Mar 29 00:42:05 <TheSauceMaster> Damn it
    Mar 29 00:42:13 <Hicks> You know, if Reggie had drilled that 3, that could have "sealed" the game a little because it pushes the lead right back up after getting it to 2
    Mar 29 00:42:33 <able> he'll hit one
    Mar 29 00:42:36 <able> later on
    Mar 29 00:42:43 <Kstat> at this point i cant blame stan
    Mar 29 00:42:46 <able> P's in the penalty
    Mar 29 00:42:54 <Kstat> heat have gotten shafter on some late calls
    Mar 29 00:43:05 <able> JO will go in the paint now I assume
    Mar 29 00:43:28 <Politician> Pacers needing all the calls they can get to win this game
    Mar 29 00:43:36 <TheSauceMaster> lol

    Mar 29 00:44:54 <Hicks> BAHH!

    Mar 29 00:45:08 <zxc> tinsley not having a very good night is he
    Mar 29 00:45:19 <indytoad> This is gotta get a lot worse before it gets better
    Mar 29 00:45:25 <zxc> lead down to 1 if he makes these =\
    Mar 29 00:45:37 <Politician> tinsley hasn't improved very much under Carlisle
    Mar 29 00:45:37 <-- Suaveness has quit (thanks and hope to see you again soon)

    Mar 29 00:46:47 <Kstat> JO shows wade how its done
    Mar 29 00:47:01 <Hicks> good to have him back, even if he looks a tad bit asleep today, but then the whole team does

    Mar 29 01:20:05 <iheartthepacers> i pasted nothing, i didnt even think you could paste
    Mar 29 01:20:09 <Hicks> It always gives us some kind of cushion too lol
    Mar 29 01:20:11 <Hicks> we're up 9
    Mar 29 01:20:37 <able> uhh we're below the 4 minute mark, mr Miller wakes up
    Mar 29 01:20:43 <Hicks> Damn, Xavier down 4 w/ 7 seconds left
    Mar 29 01:20:52 <Politician> Pacers will struggle to beat the Heat if they meet in the playoffs
    Mar 29 01:21:02 <Hicks> they'll win, too
    Mar 29 01:21:02 <able> naw, they will wipe them
    Mar 29 01:21:18 <able> if they meet
    Mar 29 01:21:22 <zxc> doubt they will
    Mar 29 01:21:26 <able> but i think they don't
    Mar 29 01:21:30 <zxc> second round maybe, but they probably in sixth seed
    Mar 29 01:21:31 --> Suaveness (~PacersDig@unit39.ls.luc.edu) has joined #pacersgamechat
    Mar 29 01:21:36 <zxc> doubt both make it to conference finals to meet
    Mar 29 01:21:49 <able> hehhe not likely
    Mar 29 01:21:52 <Hicks> do we play in Miami again?
    Mar 29 01:21:55 <indytoad> If they make it to the fifth seed, I think I'd rather play them than NO or Milwaukee
    Mar 29 01:21:57 <zxc> dont think so
    Mar 29 01:21:58 <Suaveness> no
    Mar 29 01:22:00 <able> conf finals will be either nets or pistons
    Mar 29 01:22:09 <Suaveness> pistons
    Mar 29 01:22:10 <able> adnthat can go either way IF nets are complete
    Mar 29 01:22:15 <able> otherwise it will be the pistons
    Mar 29 01:22:28 <Suaveness> we all know the pistons suck
    Mar 29 01:22:31 <able> ;p
    Mar 29 01:22:40 <zxc> ugh

    Mar 29 01:23:27 <Hicks> Jones pulls them within 5
    Mar 29 01:23:28 <indytoad> And Reggie's three is erased
    Mar 29 01:23:35 <Politician> Pistons will win the East. This Pacers team hasn't improved....they aren't playing their best at the end of the season.
    Mar 29 01:23:40 <Kstat> ..........

    Mar 29 01:28:26 <able> flagrant 2 :P
    Mar 29 01:28:48 <Hicks> did they really?
    Mar 29 01:28:55 <TheSauceMaster> I would rather take a eye poke
    Mar 29 01:28:58 <Hicks> not me
    Mar 29 01:28:59 <TheSauceMaster> than a nut shot
    Mar 29 01:29:04 <Hicks> well
    Mar 29 01:29:07 <Hicks> maybe that
    Mar 29 01:29:24 <BankShot> did they really call a flagrant?!
    Mar 29 01:29:27 <zxc> nah
    Mar 29 01:29:32 <Hicks> They were beating people easily until they squeeked out the Dallas game. Not in Indiana.
    Mar 29 01:29:46 <Politician> Carlisle coached teams continue to struggle against subpar competition...remember Orlando against Detroit in the first round last year??
    Mar 29 01:29:50 <BankShot> Home game doesn't mean stay home.
    Mar 29 01:29:56 <zxc> still lotsa time left though, if he misses these fts anyway
    Mar 29 01:30:02 <indytoad> I hate those commercials
    Mar 29 01:30:26 <Hicks> anyone, you can ignore Polly by typing /ignore username
    Mar 29 01:30:28 <zxc> ouch
    Mar 29 01:30:32 <zxc> JO shooting with one eye
    Mar 29 01:30:32 <indytoad> JO has no depth perception now
    Mar 29 01:30:38 <Hicks> s
    Mar 29 01:30:43 * BankShot applauds
    Mar 29 01:30:45 <zxc> need this one =\
    Mar 29 01:30:50 <Hicks> /ignore Politician
    Mar 29 01:30:53 <zxc> needed both really.. with their three shooting
    Mar 29 01:30:56 <Hicks> hits the 2nd
    Mar 29 01:30:57 <indytoad> Got it
    Mar 29 01:31:14 <Hicks> Misses the 2
    Mar 29 01:31:19 <Hicks> Ron gets his 10th rebound
    Mar 29 01:31:24 <zxc> that should do it
    Mar 29 01:31:25 * BankShot kisses obnoxious strongly
    Mar 29 01:31:30 <BankShot> heh heh
    Mar 29 01:31:37 <zxc> good win I suppose
    Mar 29 01:31:46 <zxc> tough night for a few starters and not as much from bench as usual
    Mar 29 01:31:56 * BankShot kisses BankShot strongly
    Mar 29 01:32:09 <Hicks> Pretty bad game overall, and yet we win AGAIN
    Mar 29 01:32:11 <able> bench was poorly tonight, had a night off after the last two, JO and Ron came through
    Mar 29 01:32:19 * TheSauceMaster slaps BankShot around a bit with a large trout
    Mar 29 01:32:20 * BankShot kisses Kstat strongly
    Mar 29 01:32:22 <-- obnoxious has quit (thanks and hope to see you again soon)
    Mar 29 01:32:24 <indytoad> Only Ron's fourth double-double? I thought for sure he'd have more
    Mar 29 01:32:26 <Hicks> Ron gets the 2nd
    Mar 29 01:32:31 --> dd (~PacersDig@pcp07352061pcs.sabrna01.az.comcast.net ) has joined #pacersgamechat
    Mar 29 01:32:40 <Hicks> No, Ron usually gets 5 or so Rbs and Asts
    Mar 29 01:32:41 <-- dd (~PacersDig@pcp07352061pcs.sabrna01.az.comcast.net ) has left #pacersgamechat
    Mar 29 01:32:46 <Hicks> still very solid
    Mar 29 01:32:52 <Hicks> they just haven't made up a cute nickname for it
    Mar 29 01:32:55 <Politician> if it were Isiah coaching this team...he'd be ripped for not getting them ready to play....as lazy as they looked out there
    Mar 29 01:33:07 <TheSauceMaster> lol
    Mar 29 01:33:10 <indytoad> Yeah I know that's what he usually gets, but thought he'd have gotten 10 or more more than just 4 times
    Mar 29 01:33:15 <zxc> yeah, like he got pacers to show up in the playoffs
    Mar 29 01:33:36 <BankShot> ACTION smacks TheSaucceMaster in the *** with a big eager open palm
    Mar 29 01:33:37 <Hicks> easier way to ignore Polly: right click on his name on the list at the right, and go to ignore, and click add
    Mar 29 01:33:48 <BankShot> hehehehehe
    Mar 29 01:33:58 <-- Hurricane (PacersDige@owen-b-145.resnet.purdue.edu) has left #pacersgamechat
    Mar 29 01:34:03 <Politician> what about Carlisle??? his Detroit team was almost eliminated by Tracy McGrady single handedly
    Mar 29 01:34:08 <zxc> tinsley you moron
    Mar 29 01:34:10 <Hicks> 85-80 as we make the absurd pass
    Mar 29 01:34:12 <indytoad> Tinsley...! Stupid!
    Mar 29 01:34:16 <zxc> lucky foster touched it =\
    Mar 29 01:34:25 <Hicks> At least jeff touched it, yeah
    Mar 29 01:34:27 <zxc> i dont know why he would ever do that
    Mar 29 01:34:30 <BankShot> time to put in tinsley!!!!!!!!!
    Mar 29 01:34:34 <Hicks> But Tinsley's had a lot of retarded moments this month
    Mar 29 01:34:35 <zxc> get the ball to foster?
    Mar 29 01:34:36 <Politician> like I said...Tinsley hasn;t improved one bit under Carlisle
    Mar 29 01:35:00 <Hicks> oh boy
    Mar 29 01:35:00 <TheSauceMaster> okay coach Thomas
    Mar 29 01:35:02 <Hicks> that would have sucked

    Mar 29 01:35:04 <zxc> well, phew
    Mar 29 01:35:10 <zxc> was that Tinsley's man? wide open =\
    Mar 29 01:35:11 <indytoad> That was close
    Mar 29 01:35:16 <Hicks> Sauce, you're better off adding him to your ignore list
    Mar 29 01:35:19 <Politician> LMAO
    Mar 29 01:35:19 <Hicks> he never changes
    Mar 29 01:35:23 <Hicks> he's been that way for years

    Mar 29 01:35:52 <Hicks> 54-19 is a nice thing to look at
    Mar 29 01:35:56 <Politician> I guess you enjoy sweating out games over the Miami Heat
    Mar 29 01:35:57 * BankShot kisses Politician strongly
    Mar 29 01:35:59 <indytoad> For years? I've only seen him since IT got fired
    Mar 29 01:36:09 <TheSauceMaster> I wasn't sweating

    Mar 29 01:36:55 <Kstat> and almost halftime
    Mar 29 01:37:10 <Hicks> A bunch of names, two that come to mind are GradSchool and Allah

    Mar 29 01:38:43 <Kstat> the Sixers have 23 points at HALFTIME
    Mar 29 01:38:47 <Politician> hope so...since Sac won both their games against Indiana

    Mar 29 01:39:40 <able> good win
    Mar 29 01:39:42 <TheSauceMaster> np
    Mar 29 01:39:49 <able> where most said we would loose
    Mar 29 01:39:53 <able> MOUAH
    Mar 29 01:39:57 <TheSauceMaster> nah
    Mar 29 01:40:11 <TheSauceMaster> I just tend to error on the side of caution
    Mar 29 01:40:16 <Politician> huh?? who thought the Pacers would lose to the Heat?? That would've been unexcusable...
    Mar 29 01:40:17 <TheSauceMaster> I am like Rick
    Mar 29 01:40:18 <able> I see us losing ONE game and at most 2 the rest of the way
    Mar 29 01:40:52 <able> Heat were supposedly the "hot" team in town, 7 game winstreak
    Mar 29 01:40:54 <TheSauceMaster> hmm
    Mar 29 01:41:09 <TheSauceMaster> well rick even said that
    Mar 29 01:41:15 <TheSauceMaster> so sue him
    Mar 29 01:41:21 <able> "insurance"
    Mar 29 01:41:23 <TheSauceMaster> "They're playing as well as anybody in the Eastern Conference, and the seven-game winning streak they're on right now is proof of that."
    Mar 29 01:41:23 <TheSauceMaster> - Rick Carlisle
    Mar 29 01:41:32 <able> "insurance"
    Mar 29 01:41:32 <Politician> Pacers have only lost 19 games...they should've rolled over a team like Miami
    Mar 29 01:41:33 <TheSauceMaster> *bows*
    Mar 29 01:41:43 <Politician> at home
    Mar 29 01:41:53 <able> covering backsides
    Mar 29 01:42:19 <TheSauceMaster> how many of those 19 are too under .500 teams
    Mar 29 01:42:26 <TheSauceMaster> I think 8 or 9
    So Long And Thanks For All The Fish.

    Re: partial log from chat

    And for Kstat, Pietrus has been starting recently. The strange thing is, he's getting calls like he's not a rookie. He's getting away with a ton of stuff on defense which rooks would normally not get away with; stuff only players who are known as "defenders" get away with. I'm not sure how his reputation with the officials has gotten like that but it's pretty much been that way since he started getting good minutes (i.e. when Claxton went down and Dunleavy took over as starting PG). Strange but I'll take it. That kid has a serious future if he keeps getting time.

      I don't understand why people get on chat while a Pacer game is on! I've tried it and don't like it. I think if people talked about the game I would like it but game comments seem few and far between.

      To each his own. <shaking head>

        I like reacting to the game, and then when there's a pause talking about it. I made the mistake at first of typing WHILE the game was being played, but quickly learned self-control and treated it like a game night thread: I'd watch, then when there was a break in the action, I'd type something about the game. Then if it's something like a big shot, it's easy to just cheer about it.

          Yes, but you can do that in a regular thread.

          The problem in chat is 20 people talking at once. In a thread you have guys responding to another with quotes and you can follow along. In chat you have to ignore some to have a conversation with another.

          Chat is very good for one on one, or a handfull at most.

          I'm not saying you shouldn't have chat because some obviously like it. I'm just sayng 20 person chat rooms are not my cup of tea.

            I have to agree with Will on this also, firstly because I can't get into the chat room on my computer for some reason, it just shows a blank page, and secondly because I live out of town and don't have league pass so I mostly have to listen on audio league pass. For those of you who do the same I'm sure you'll agree it is frustrating not to be able to see things as they happen. The game thread is helpful and gives a different commentary from Mark and Slick. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy Mark and Slick and miss hearing them when I can get an occasional game on nat. TV.

            There are also many games that I have to miss and I always go back and read the game thread after, it really helps to get a feeling for how they were playing and the things that happened. I tried reading the partial chat that able posted but it doesn't give the same feel for how the game went and it was hard to follow.

            I understand the chat being preferred by many, but I just wanted to say I miss the good old game thread.
