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: Report: Suns Willing To Consider Trading Steve Nash

    Obviously getting Nash would help, but I could see Nash's D getting Roy in alot of foul trouble as he is constantly having to come over to defend driving guards. DC has been pretty solid on D as far as keeping his man in front of him this year which is letting Roy stay in the games.

    The other thing about Nash, he might be 38, but he treats his body so well he could be considered younger.

      a first and collison is a lot to give up for a rental when you can just get him in the off season on a decent contract. we aren't winning the finals this year. why not just wait and add young players through the draft, keep collison who would be a killer backup, AND add nash?

We don't have a Troy Murphy-esque trade waiting for us this time to get another one, either. And without our 1st rounder, we're not going to draft him, either.
        If Nash left there is Aaron Brooks and RFA DJ Augustin. Personally I think its pretty risky but I could see replacements for Collison who is going to get paid sooner than later.

          Just because of the existence of the SuperTeams, is there no chance of winning a Championship over the next 2 seasons?

          I'm looking at the next 2 seasons as the window to win it all...this is how long we have West and 1 year short of when Granger becomes a UFA.....before the both of them likely bolts for greener pastures.

          Is it realistic?

          Probably not with the current roster....but is it possible if we can continue to build upon the existing foundation that we have built?

          I think so.

          If there is a chance to even RENT Nash without costing a 1st AND Collison ( but one or the other )...I'd consider it. Getting Nash builds upon what we have and gives us a better chance to win in the near future.
          You misunderstood me and read waayyy to much into what I said. My point was not that we were incapable of winning a ring.... but rather are we capable of winning a championship adding Nash to our roster. Maybe 3-4 years ago, sure... but now I don't think he's the guy to take us there. And you only have a maybe 2 year window with him. So is it worth it?

          I don't really think so. Do I think we're capable of winning a ring in that time frame? We're not quite there yet, but with the right roster moves it is possible. It just depends on the roster moves. But Nash is not my idea of a championship-level roster move. Substitute in Rondo or maybe DWill and ask me again.

            If Larry thinks we could win it this year, sure, go get Steve Nash for say DC or George Hill and a first. Preferably Darren.

            If not, go after Steve in the summer and keep our assets while looking for another piece to add like Morrow or Kaman as old examples...

            Nash would be a fantastic addition to our team. He's everything you want in a point guard offensively. He is still playing fantastic ball on a horrible team; he will be around for a while longer. As we await our championship point guard as this team hits their prime two-three years from now, we have Nash and Darren to give us 48 minutes of above average point guard play.

            Steve Nash would get Paul and Danny good looks and we would actually put David West to good use on offense by being able to play to his strength, the pick n pop. From the looks of it, these guys plus a Steve Nash could realistically give us a (small) chance to beat Miami and Chicago in the east. I would rather wait and pursue him or Andre Miller in the offseason without giving up assets, but if we have a chance to make it then we must as well try to give our competition all we've got

            Interesting situation here nonetheless....

              For both DC and a 1st?

              I'm on the fence....I'm not sure if the Pacers are overpaying.

              I'd possibly consider it if it was more like:

              DC+Pendegraph+1st

              for

              Nash+Robin Lopez+2nd round Pick

              I honestly don't know....I'd just hope that Bird and the FO can gauge what the likelihood of Nash staying for another year or two is.

              However, I wouldn't really do anything until I know whether Deron Williams stays with the Nets or ends up on the Knicks ( which is totally dependent on where Dwight ends up ). If Dwight ends up in NJ, then Deron will likely stay in NJ...hence increasing the possibility of Nash joining D'Antoni in MSG. But if Dwight ends up elsewhere and the Nets are forced to move Deron...then I can see him ending up with the Knicks...hence removing the Knicks/D'Antoni from the list of FA Options.

                  1st question....could we win a Championship with either Rondo or DWill instead of Nash?

                  My guess is that we probably can.

                  2nd question....can we get either Rondo or DWill without gutting our roster and dismantling a good part of our core?

                  My guess is not likely.

                  I will use that phrase everyone here loves to hate..."we will agree to disagree".

                  With our current core of "Starting 7" Players....I think that we are 2 solid Players away from being a Contender that can compete against the SuperTeams. So, I can see reasons why we wouldn't make a move for Nash.

                  For me, I can go with either options as I see merits with both options...however, I lean more towards the "gamble and see what we can do with Nash" options.

                  I don't think that our defense would be any worse than it is now ( my guess is that Vogel will continue with "PaulGeorge / Inferno / Lance" guarding the opposing Team's PG like we are doing now while our Point Guard defends the opposing Team's SG ) ....while our offense ( the weaker part of our game ) would greatly improve. But this begs the question of whether Nash would be open to staying on for another season or two and therefore what the price that we'd have to pay in order to get him.

                    I think we already are the 3rd best team in the conference. At worst tied with Philly for that distinction. I think with Nash we could beat Miami, but I'm puzzled why you would even push for renting him if you don't believe that we could win. It's a total wasted trade if that's what you project.

Even then, I don't REALLY don't believe that Miami is that much of a matchup problem for Indiana as long as Hibbert continues to play the way he does. Chicago can't exploit the middle like we can against Miami.
                      Let's see . . . you don't think we would be better against Miami with Nash instead of DC. In fact, DC may be even better "due to his speed and quickness over Chalmers."

                      This being the same Chalmers who torched us from the outside and helped lead the worst drubbing we have received all year?

                        yea but amare, marion, and nash were all in their prime then too. Also Im not convinced Melo will ever be a "winner". Kind of like Iverson or Tmac (loose reference)

                          First off, this is a very strange season. Who is to say that we would not have any chance of winning a title with Nash added to the team? Personally, I believe adding Nash puts us ahead of Chicago. I'm not sure about Miami, but like I said, it is a strange season. So, who knows?

                          What I am sure of is that we have about 0% chance of signing Nash this summer without him first being on our roster through a trade this season. He will have established no history with our organization and its players and would most certainly overlook us to play elsewhere.

                          If we were to trade for Nash and he decided to leave anyway following the season, then I do believe that there would be free agent SGs available that would look at our roster and easily conclude that all they have to do is sign and they will step immediately into a starting position. That's not a terrible position to be in, for the player or for the front office.

                          One that I believe could see that right away would be Kirk Hinrich. He's a great PG who has been relegated to be a backup for 3 years now behind excellent younger talent. He could easily step in and start for us.

                          So, getting Nash now, even if it did not work out in the summer would not necessarily be a bad thing. I would bet that if we were to get Nash now and he worked out, he might be very willing to sign a contract for a couple of years at a decent reduction under what he was formerly making.

                            I think at this point, seeing how the West is weaker than normal at the top, and that we aren't too far from Miami or Chicago in the East, that I would highly consider making such a move.

                            If we could get Nash for Collison+First, it would be awfully tempting. Even if Nash bolts to join D'Antoni in New York or something of that nature, the Pacers could always sign someone like DJ Augustin in free agency. Do I think he's as good as Collison? No, but I don't think we'd lose that much.

                            Steve Nash would make us a contender, and I'd be especially intrigued to see how we could match up against the Heat. In our previous matchup, Miami suffocated our offense by trapping and constantly forcing our offense to start well beyond the three point line. I don't see that happening with Nash, he would make them pay. It also works out well that we could stick him on Chalmers who while can score, isn't exactly a scorer by any teams.

                            I do think it would hurt us some against Chicago at least defensively because who guards Rose? Hamilton's a little too tall to stick Nash on, and Deng's too big.

                              I'm on the fence....I'm not sure if the Pacers are overpaying.

                              I'd possibly consider it if it was more like:

                              DC+Pendegraph+1st

                              for

                              Nash+Robin Lopez+2nd round Pick

                              I honestly don't know....I'd just hope that Bird and the FO can gauge what the likelihood of Nash staying for another year or two is.
                              This I agree with. Nash for DC/1 is very iffy to me. I love Nash, probably favorite non-Pacer, and he'd be a fantastic addition to the team. Like others have said though, he leaves after the year and we are left with nothing. If it is the proposed trade above, I think I could accept that.

                              However, I don't know if DC/1 is enough for Nash, and I don't really think they'd add Lopez and a 2 for Pendergraph.

                              Not to mention, I don't think he'll ask for a trade, and I don't think they'll trade him if he doesn't. I wish we could just get him for cap space like Kaman ...

                                Not sure Nash would be the greatest addition considering his age, but I do think at least against the Bulls in a playoff series with Nash we'd have no problems beating them. Nash is taller than the average point guard, and would actually do a decent job defending Rip. Nash is great at getting through screens and following his man around. He just cannot stop any sort of penetration. Ever.

                                With that lineup I actually think the Pacers would stomp the Bulls. We'd have a net win at nearly every position maybe all of them. Roy, West and Granger are better than Noah, the worst PF ever, and Deng.

                                Really I have no doubt in my mind it would make the Pacers immediately better. It's just I hope their is a long term plan to contend year after year, and that means building a young team around each other. I'm afraid acquiring Nash could hurt the Pacers long term chances by tying up cap space and removing the Pacers as players for other young viable talent around the league. I don't know if their is truth to that. Something tells me that. It's a bit complicated though.

                                Whatever they do, I hope Bird keeps all those factors in mind before attempting a trade.
