After about a week of checking I have attempted to notice who is still posting and who is not.My feeling is that any poster who got into the girls forum ruckus has been blacklisted. If I see any of these posters still posting on depreps I will be very upset.I continue to look at the rules for dismissal I for the life of me I cannot see anything that could cause a blacklisting of my ID. I intend to get in touch with rivals.com to discuss the situation with depreps very soon.Later on this subject.
Last week I found out that I have been banned from my favorite site,depreps. Its a local Delaware high school sports site.The administration can ban any poster form the site at any time but I was shocked to get banned. The site has rules and regulations but nearly everyone on the site occasionally breaks the rules now and then. The bad thing is that I have no idea what rule I broke to get banned and I was not warned that anymore such rule breaking would get me banned.Even the most blatant rule breakers get warned on depreps. Depreps was set up for posters to support high school sports in Delaware and state their opinions about high school sports in Delaware. Needless to say this can lead to many hotly contested threads which is good for Delaware sports.My feeling is that depreps give people from Delaware a voice which is something that was lacking in our state. This voice has been slowly eroded by the administrators and posters on the site.One of the forums,girls sports,has been ruined,mostly because the administrators allowed posters that I called "cheerleaders" to remain on the site. These "cheerleaders" rarely posted news and positive posts on the site but saw everything that their school did was good and everything that other schools did was bad.Needless to say other school fans took offense to these postings and responded to them.Iwanted to post about girls sports,mostly basketball,but I defended my school and its fans whenever I saw that it was being spat upon verbally by these "cheerleaders".Another forum on the site has been run like an iron fist and has been turned into a bulletin board with no opinion allowed. Basically its been neutered. Oviously one depreps manager likes it that way and occasionally he put his iron boot down on other posters in other forums.I assume that his influence resulted in my being banned from the site.Another thing is the amazing sensitivity to complaints on the site.A complainer is someone who reacts to the lack of the sites overall lack of sophistication and inability to do things most sites take for granted. Rivals wants it simple and depreps complies. I had been desinated a "complainer' by the site administrator because I had the audacity to point out that the site was behind the times in letting posters do things that most sites allow them to do without problem.Its almost impossible to add a signature or photo to your posts on depreps. Later about this one.
