***POLICY AND PROCEDURE REGARING GAME UPDATE THREADS/PLEASE READ!!!***


Recommended Posts

Posted
For the FIRST TIME EVER I had to lock a game update thread while the game was still being played.  It was suggested that such off topic remarks which caused the closure of the thread were as a result of my not setting proper parameters on the game update threads. This thread is meant to remedy that situation.  After this thread is posted it will be locked as the text contained herein is not up for discussion and is not up for negotiation.

First game threads, generally do up about an hour or so before the scheduled kickoff and/or broadcast time.  [b]From the time that the thread is posted until the scheduled kickoff, any and all comments normally allowed under forum rules will be allowed in the game update threads.

Once kickoff has occurred, the thread will be closed until halftime for all comments other than updates regarding the progress of the game.  For purposes of this forum, update is defined as the following and must contain ONLY the following in the thread:

1)  A post indicating who will receive the opening kickoff;
2)  Posting of the progress of a drive of the team which has the ball, also referred to as play by play;
3)  Posting a comment ABOUT A SPECIFC OFFICIAL'S CALL or A SPECIFIC COACHING DECISION;
4)  Posting the score of a game, time left in the quarter or game or method of scoring.

Any post which does not comply with items 1-4 above will be deemed a thread hijacking post and will be deleted and the author of said post warned for violation of forum rules.  3 such warnings will result in the suspension of the author's board privileges for a period of one week.

Once a confirmation that halftime has been reached, the thread will be open for any and all comments nornally allowed under SETXsports.com forum rules.

Once haltime has ended, the thread will be closed to all posts except for those defined as update in items 1-4 above.  Once conclusion of the game has been confirmed, the thread will again be left open for any and all comment allowed under SETXsports forum rules.

This policy may be updated without further notice to address further concerns.

Thank you,
