If your post ...
a) provides content (or other value)
and/or
b) connects socially
and/or
c) identifies a factual error
and/or
d) conveys a respectful opinion
then the Pregame community is the place for you.
If your post doesn't one of these, then you will be banned 7 days the first time ... 30 days the next ... then lifetime.
I have no doubt that every poster thinks his posts are justified. That doesn't matter. What matters are the rules of this community. Break them, and you will no longer be a part of this community.
