Let’s not engage in further finger pointing, it just adds to the frenzy. I said my piece. Fanatics spoiling for a fight just feed on being identified and someone to hate on.

I guess that within this site (and others) there’s a contingent that demands the dominant discourse of the site be contentious, political, and coarse. They browbeat anyone who suggests (and I never saw any “demand”) that anything but a wild west format be implemented. Their opinion is that civility and consideration is a “ultra conservative…[Read more]

I think we need to ask if making an extra step to get to contentious or salacious topics and not having them on the homepage where anyone might get upset or be harmed seeing them and make a bad decision in escalating hostility or discontinuing use of the site is something that is wanted or will be useful to the casual user of Utehub?

Emphasis on this being a sports first message board is a great idea. Sports bring us together here. Utehub should celebrate that.

1. If a post is at all about politics it should be in the politics category. Divisive topics should be isolated if reducing infighting is a priority.
2. Moderator permissions should be strictly limited to allow for people to express themselves, and very clear rules must be outlined. Perhaps a temporary threadjacking ban should be instituted. I’m…[Read more]

Average National teacher salary: $52,362 (approx. equal to Vermont’s average 21/50)

5DollarShake replied to the topic So, the whole #hometownhero thing didn't really workout… in the forum Football 7 years, 10 months ago
The head scratcher is that Kalani has brought in 5 defensive ends from Utah in one recruiting class, after losing 5 total defensive players (in the 3-deep) to graduation. This may be because they’re going on missions, but it doesn’t look like they’ll be on the field all that soon.

Jim Harding beat out Bronco and Kalani for this kid’s services. Apparently the “something different” he felt in Provo on his official visit wasn’t a positive something.

Tony, how do I unignore @PinkoOutrageMachine if I want to reply to a post they’ve made, because I saw it on the home page before I logged in, because I didn’t tell the site to remember me? I obviously must become their Komrade … I mean “friend” … because angry sports forum posters are the most persuasive people on earth and now I have to plot…[Read more]
