Its all about opinions. Like this topic is still listed on the main forum. Some feel it should be here, some feel it should be in another location.

In the case dealing with the Dr. Chainsaw thread, I do not agree with Steve on locking it up and sending it on its way. I know Chainsaw is a friend of Steve's, but when I see an email from the good Doctor, I might just reply with: 'hey Steve created Derbytrail.com and some forum members wonder when you are going to show up with your wit and knowledge?'

Some people might just offer some insight to answer questions asked if they were directed toward someone else. This might help in the long run. If you do want just a response of who you are directing to, then just PM it.

But IF YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED THE THREAD, JUST SKIP IT!!!! IT IS SO EASY TO DO. I haven't been on here since Wed. Night. So I get on here to catch up and skip the threads that I'm not interested to catch up anyways. I like how this forum has a mark forum thread section. AS a suggestion I would like to have that option for the individual categorize threads.

As far as setting a precedence like "i.e. "BEL P6 today! (Hooves? Orca?)," people are not always going to follow it. Like me as a second job a write for a website short excerpts of information. But as quick as I go through things, I might leave something out, and my grammar might be off. My info. might be printed as is, or edited, or sent back to me to please explain further.

Really its not a big deal. But in the my own opinion, the only threads that should be locked and deleted are the ones with verbal sparring attacks between posters, and ones that considered libelous enough warranted to any suit.

Eh.. I disagree with this. The moderators' job isn't just to eliminate offensive material, but also to cut down on clutter. I'm gonna stay mum on the rest of this subject, but I just wanted to say that.

So define clutter? That sounds kinda subjective.

You know what I mean by clutter. There's a lot of complete ****ing nonsense on this board and don't act like I'm pulling this out of my ass. There are numerous threads that either belong somewhere else, belong in PM, serve no purpose but to rile people up, or rehash the same points that have been made 1,000 times earlier. It wastes space. I don't care how harmless you think it is.. If it isn't trimmed down, sooner or later we have a total mess. So stop pretending you don't know what I'm talking about.

Ateam I agree, but for every poly thread you think may be clutter, there are those of us who are gonna puke if one more Bernadini thread goes up, LOL!!
What I'm saying is, one man's clutter is another man's I wanna read this thread.
I mean, I get yelled at for throwing up a Hey Steve what about Chainsaw, and Hooves posts a way to go Chuck(who I happen to love, no problem here with that) which is basically the same thing. Thats a bull**** double standard. How do you decide the relevance between them?
(And I'm busting your balls on bernadini)

Why don't you just wait until after the Breeders Cup. Now and KY Derby time are great times to read and the boards are all busy. When they are slower you can post your clutter.

Your boy Kip Deville won an ungraded stake today. Too bad he couldn't compete with the big boys yesterday. Nice job by Kip though. I thought he was fried. They should roll the dice for the Breeders Cup Mile.

I agree with the total riling people up. And like I said take care of the slander crap also. But if someone wants to complain about Bernardini is a God and polytrack stinks. Lets have some opinions on the topic. That belongs. OF course the bating doesn't belong. Heck I'm guilty of it. Off topic options are for the off topic stuff. Other Forums are no different.

Its not like I'm waiting for a prize or something HE! HE! HE!
