I know of at least one poster who has purposely tried to get a ban ... and failed.

Not all posts are read by moderators and not all moderators are as rigid about the rules as others.

If they really wanted a ban, they should've boardmailed a pornographic picture to Jefe. That would work.

I know a couple of the mods well. I think I will ask them if I am wrong or right. Maybe they are sworn to secrecy. However, my hunch is that some of the "boobs" on that board keep the mods well aware of any posts they don't like. There is a tattle tale element on there that is alive and well. Probably a hold over from their glorious days at BYU.

Note: That comment was intended for only the "boobs" and should not be construed as if I believe that about the majority of BYU students or alumni.

Yeah, the "Report Abuse" link is undoubtedly abused by certain grudgeholders.

I was banned for 14 days for asking Norcal if he was a switch hitter. Trust me when i say that if anyone else asked that the worst thing they get is a warning.

Maybe i am a habitual offender but i do think there is a "watch list" of certain posters.

Cougarboard has lost a lot of its personality to this board. It is their loss.

I can't find a link, but at one time it was stated that repeat offenders get escalating penalties for the same offense.

IOW, if I make reference certain anatomical features that resemble desert-dwelling quadrapeds and I'll probably get one day and Goatnapper will probably get two weeks.

Here is something I posted back in May.

http://www.cougarboard.com/noframes/...tml?id=2713508

I suggest for some reason, maybe the boobs complaining, it was decided to start eliminating controversy and friction, especially outside of the football posts. The board is becoming more and more like the Ute board. Everyone basically agreeing with each other.

Go ahead and attack Kyle and you won't hear another side, much like what goes on in reverse on the Ute board. Now the Cougar board will continue to be much bigger because of the fan base.

Even some of the more non-controversial posters don't post much anymore. I have seen PAC post more on Utefans than CB. Bucko and DodgerMike don't post much and Flystripper stopped posting a lot a long time ago.

It will be interesting when it comes to the season. Fans visiting that site are going to get a much different view of BYU fans than if they were able to see the whole gammit of BYU fans. They are going to see the washed and cleansed version.

No one can read that link but you and the mods. You'll need to copy and paste.

I can read it just fine. You must not be on 71's friends list.
