Curt's rules, as I interpret them, do not call for the removal of users who have personalities that don't blend in with everyone else's.

There also is no rule (that I can see) that calls for the removal of users whose posts are consistently (or exclusively) negative about the entire team, or any specific coach or player. If that were the case, about 80% of registered users would have been booted off this board during the Fiedler/Wannestedt years, when it was quite fashionable to be negative.

However, I will point out in general that Curt *does* state in his rules for posting that we are to treat the team members with respect. We can criticize their play till the cows come home, but we must do so with respect.

As a discussion site, we have to strike a balance between allowing a certain degree of unpleasantness/confrontation/negativity, with becoming draconian with censorship.

If anyone sees what they believe to be violation of Curt's rules, please send me a PM or use the "report" function.

Thanks,
