Re: OT: please post all earthquake jokes here
Wrong.
FB, you have an opinion, which is fine. However, T was making a judgment call based on experience knowing what sets people off. Serious discussions can tend to set people off when someone jokes about it. This isn't a new concept.
The question is whether or not joking in the serious discussion thread would have resulted in such a reaction. It frankly doesn't matter which one of the two of you are correct in this matter. The bottom line is, someone could have taken offense to it, and if someone did, then it blows up into a fight. T proactively took a step to ensure that didn't happen.
Your opinion is it wouldn't have been an issue. His is that it would have been. Both opinions are fine. However, you're out of line stating that your opinion is evidence for him overreaching in his role as mod.

Re: OT: please post all earthquake jokes here
Boy, you're lucky it was Mista T. I would have moved the thread right after it started. I know, it was an event we don't normally see. But this is still a sports forum and site, and it didn't belong in the main forum.
To be PERFECTLY honest, it would be nice if the forum members here would initiate these types of threads in their proper place. I don't think that's too much to ask.
As for what T did, I have his back too. What's the big deal. You got a thread to post in. What does it matter?

"A lot" is a two word expression denoting a great deal or greatly, as in "I like sunshine a lot." "Alot" is a lovable imaginary grammar monster. You can love a lot; you can love an alot; you can love alots a lot; but they are not the same thing.

What's weird and crazy is that I an wasting another two minutes of my life explaining to you how we try to be even-handed while maintaining organization of these forums. We are talking about an OT non-Ravens discussion temporary thread addressing an event which scared millions of people. This thread will now be locked and trashed.
Sorry. It needs to be said.In a 2003 BBC poll that asked Brits to name the "Greatest American Ever", Mr. T came in fourth, behind ML King (3rd), Abe Lincoln (2nd) and Homer Simpson (1st).
