I think it can be.

The sheeple need to be warned more. If they make a personal attack warn them and the other parties involved. If it continues move it to the smack forum...

Close threads instead of deleting them (not spammage) If another mod deems it an ok topic it can be reopened.

Exactly. Too many threads that get people banned are deleted instead of closed. Then people start threads wondering what happened about this and it looks over-modded. Leave the evidence out there. Some HOF worthy threads have been deleted and should have been left.

People can be a bit nicer, mods and users alike, in directing someone to an already existing thread.

However, instead of closing a thread, why not go ahead and merge with the other?

And sometimes, if the thread is really long, who cares to read through it, especially if it's a different angle?

No, not overly-moderated at all. In fact, some behavior is overly-tolerated (I won't mention anyone who ran out of lives). However the infractions are stupid as used. They should be used for violating rules, not just to play around.

I like the way Infractions are used. Any other way would be like being in High School again. DON'T MAKE ME GIVE YOU ANOTHER WARNING MR.Snake. Really except for the occasional Dumbass and Stupid post blossom the board is just like America, Diverse with all kinds of language and ideals.

Have you actually read the infractions being given??? Seriously??? "I think Lost is stupid" - mods give an infraction to be funny. Go to the infractions forum and check them. There's only a couple that are legit - others are being funny.

      In my opinion Fitterer was probably right about not paying McCaffrey. Now not wanting to "pay RBs" in my opinion isn't something you want to set in stone, to me it all comes down to the individual.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      Maybe I'm just not understanding, but everywhere that I have read says that signing bonuses go against the cap prorated by as much as five years. The following example uses Andrew Luck's rookie contract as an example. "Take Andrew Luck, the first overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft. Luck signed a four-year contract with the Colts worth $22.1 million and included a $14.5 million signing bonus. Rather than a $14.5 million cap hit in 2012, the Colts spread out his signing bonus over the life of his contract. The hit against the cap would be $3.625 million per year over four years instead of a direct cap hit of $14.5 million directly in 2012. This gave the Colts more leverage and cap flexibility in signing other players." https://www.the33rdteam.com/nfl-signing-bonuses-explained/ I don't know why some of you think that signing bonuses aren't counted against the cap over the length of the contract, but whatever.   "The bonus with a signing is usually the most garish aspect of a rookie contract. Bonus is the immediate cash players receive when they ink a deal. It factors into the cap, but only for the whole contract duration, in terms of salary cap calculations. In the case of Bryce Young’s $24.6 million signing bonus, that’s prorated to approximately $6.15 million per season over a four-year deal. This format allows teams to handle the cap and provides rookies with some short-term fiscal stability, which is important given the high injury risk in this league." https://collegefootballnetwork.com/how-rookie-contracts-work-in-the-nfl/ I understand how signing bonuses can be a useful tool in order to manage the cap, and as one of the article suggests, signing bonuses may become important if you have a tight cap, but the bill is always going to come due. I'm not necessarily referring to you Tuka, but it seems to me that others simply don't want to understand that fact which is why they're reacting to what I'm saying negatively. How odd. In any event, I have a better general understanding of why signing bonuses are used now, and it's generally to fit salaries under the cap. Surely players, whether they be rookies or not, love a signing bonus because they get a good portion of their money up front. This in turn gives them more security and probably amounts to tax benefits as well. I also understand why teams would not want to use signing bonuses, particularly for players or draftees who have a higher probability of being gone before a contract even ends.
