Yes. Because a sellout doesn't mean every seat is filled. That would be a capacity crowd which generally exceeds a sellout crowd.

I think about him sometimes. The same way I think about that guy who would make the JR videos. Wherever he is now…

Thanks for clarifying, I will do the same.

You are welcome to occasionally post here as a form of protest reminding people that you do not watch the shows, and presenting a coherent argument about why they should not either, or if they do, why they should do their best to avoid paying for PPVs and such.

You are not welcome to post here calling people pieces of poo poo or any other insults for watching the shows.

While it is very unfortunate that the executives at both (now merged) companies and probably others close to them are giant pieces of poo poo, they themselves are not the entire product they run and the shows in general represent years of history and escape from the real world for those watching them, and provide a direct source of enjoyment to the people posting here about it that I think far outweighs the monetary and brand support that is potentially provided by having an engaged fanbase continue to post here.


Brut posted:

Well I mean now that they have decided (I am assuming practicing what they preach) not to watch the show anymore, obviously if they change their mind and decide to watch the show again, they're also welcomed to keep posting normally about that too, but that goes without saying.

I don't think that's the right course of action at this time.



Brut posted:

Is there a reason you're randomly sniping at someone who hasn't posted in this thread in like a year and a half?


Brut posted:

Don't call anyone anything, do not talk about other posters.

You disagree with posters? Talk to them, tell them you think they're wrong and tell them why, have a normal conversation.


no offense and I appreciate the effort but its starting to feel like we need an active mod for the wrestling side instead of the MMA mod trying to understand what the heck is going on in the wrestling threads

Yeah, I think it's coming from an earnest place but the new mod style of chiding people for their posts and insisting they post normal is not great. Either you think a post is worth a sixer and you give it or you don't and then you the mod :justpost: like a normal poster.

Selecting random posts to call out and give out posting advice to always just makes people cranky and kicks dreams back up after it stopped.

we're all afraid to say it but here goes, the wrestling side needs a mod that isn't easily distracted by outside the ring shenanigans while posters hit each other with chairs and poke each other in the eyes.

I agree, this is being worked on.

Well the thing is that I don't watch wrestling so I would have no reason to :justpost: in the wrestling threads, the posts that draw my attention are posts that have been reported, which speaks both to the selection and the timing, I try to check reports every day but not like every hour or something, so I'm gonna get to things late in those situations.

More generally speaking though, use 'your buttons before your words' is pretty much the opposite of the advice I mostly see kicked around when folks talk about modding. Because I'm less familiar with the threads I have less of an idea when it's a one-off and when it's a pattern of behavior, I try to give the benefit of the doubt and give people a chance before just starting to hit people with probes.
