IMO, what AZBilliards needs.

I disagree with everything you've said, and if you don't like it we can take it outside.
First, though, I need to go to the bathroom. I got a prostate the size of a cantaloupe and I can't go anywhere without taking a whiz every five minutes. Very frustrating. You go on ahead, I'll be there in a bit. Smoke 'em if you got 'em. :smile:
 
But under that scenario many good threads would get moved to another sub-forum, making the site harder to use.

Trouble-makers are a fact of life...and they'll make all the trouble you allow them to. Unfortunately the only effective way to deal with them is exile.
 
Two things,

First is to stop kicking people out for small infractions.

HOW?

Just like at the Pool Halls.

TAKE IT OUTSIDE.


How about the great AZBILLIARDS keep the fantastic people who joined and supported them and give them a second chance.

Create a new forum, once a thread gets heated and the mods' valuable time taken from them for whiners, create an area where people can say as they please

Call it the

TAKE IT OUTSIDE SECTION with a disclaimer of what may be encountered.


The only thing you would get kicked out for would be threats of violence OR when then entire threads gets filled with people saying one party is wrong and all agree who should be banned.


It's OK to disagree,

when two people disagree,,


IT'S A CHANCE FOR ONE (REASONABLE) PERSON TO LEARN SOMETHING.


Thanks, good day.

Dumbest thing Ive ever read. Only a complete and utter moron would even type such a thing. How do you even remember to put clothes on in the morning when you leave the house? Oh, I forgot, you live in your mothers basement like all the other internet tough guys.

Just kidding! Thank Jesus. :thumbup:

t think you have got it wrong. in the real pool hall when you are asked to leave for your behavior you leave the pool room; in AZB's case you leave the site. like a real pool room when you show you a#$ you have to ask the owner or manager of the pool room to get back in after you apologize and promise to keep your behavior in check; just like AZB i assume. you do not get to go to a part of the pool room where you can continue to show your a#$. if they let you back in and you continue to be a problem well most pool room rooms would kick your a#$ and never let you back in the front door. AZB is not this harsh so offenders should count their lucky stars.

get your analogies straight.

Im not commenting on the topic but rather your post. Let's not forget pool halls are rough places, full foul mouth guys constantly disagreeing often leading to actual fights lol!
 
R U Serious?

BAD........DUMB......... the OP comes across like some shill campaigning to get some buddies reinstated.
If you were banned from AZ, you deserved to be.........The Mods don't do that type of thing hastily.....
When you are not able to behave in a respectful, civil manner, you deserve to be kicked off the Forum.
The OP can go visit any of his banned friends on Facebook where rejected morons from AZ have relocated.
Either adhere to the Forum rules or suffer the consequences but please don't plead the case for the guilty ones.
The Forum is a far better place when its membership follows the rules & antagonism of others isn't tolerated.

Would be nice if all of that were true.
 
Only sissies wait until they get outside.
Besides, to go out side you'd have to leave your keyboard....
hey, you might be on to something there
 
You own words prove you have an agenda......mission.

"Please allow me to tell you how wrong you are, I have never been kicked out of here, never even been warned."



What I wrote was...."the OP comes across like some shill campaigning to get some buddies reinstated."

The 2nd sentence starts with "you" but was a reference to anyone that's been banned......since you posted, then obviously you aren't banned.

And as far as your Az record goes, even if it was immaculate, that doesn't make a stupid idea any more appealing or merit worthy.

It just looks to my eye that someone....anyone.....that would post something akin to your post, that Azer comes across as some stooge trying to get
some banned pals reinstated. I could be wrong and if so, I am sorry for the misread but my reading of the OP sure makes you appear as such. If you
disagree, please don't ask to take this outside with me......you'd lose........my CCW permit is good in 39 states.........in case you missed it, that was a
facetious reference to my carry privileges.......I mean, you did misunderstand my use of the word "you" in my post.

I assume when people get kicked out that they have been warned first? Does anybody know? If so, sounds like they've had their 2nd chance already. If not, maybe a 2nd chance isn't a bad idea....on a very short leash though.

If I had to pick my biggest issue with this place, it's the disrespect some people show to others. Disagreeing is fine and can be productive, but crossing the line isn't. So I'm kinda glad AZB is willing to boot some people. Generally speaking, you need to say some pretty nasty stuff to get booted from onlite sites, so I'm guessing the bad apple's penalties were deserved.
 
Not only have I never been warned, never been kicked out, I don't personally know one person who has.

I don't have one single person on any type of Friends list or anything and I have not had discussions with people in private in here either.

With that said, I have seen some great business people removed when I believed they were in the right.


I thought JB quit, I didn't know he got kicked out :)
 
Just as an FYI, yes almost everyone gets a warning before the ban hammer. Usually multiple warnings. Once in a blue moon someone will get banned without a warning, but it is always due to an offense that the person knew would get them banned.

As I have said many times before, I don't want to ban anyone. A lot of the time it is like dealing with kids though. They push a little harder each day to see what they can get away with, and then you finally rein them back in and you are the bad guy.

I think they have a white list of immune posters :)
