DOES IT MAKE FEEL LIKE A MAN NOW?. Your mentality is lower than snake crap in a truck rut! Come on Administrator you have to stop these sewer mouths from language like this. You're representing the Oilers which are a class organization and idiots like this do nothing but lower their image & standards. This forum does not represent the Oilers or the Oilers organization, the Oilers organization made sure of that. If they want to be represented they will start a new forum after closing the last one. As such, we have no responsibility to adhere to anything that they represent, and are free to run this site however we see fit, as long as it adheres to proboards policies and it is within the law of course. While we do have profanity rules here, we also clearly state that there is flexibility and we will not censor content that is not excessive, that job is for parents. We do however have clear rules on calling out the administrators or moderators on this forum. We do not permit anybody to complain about how this site is moderated publicly on the forum, and any complaints are to be dealt with privately via PM's. We are not here to censor our members or rule with an iron fist. We want to welcome all members, and all trains of thought. Agreement and disagreement is all good here. So, lets just let our hair down and have some fun, deal? Bronco: It's unfortunate you've taken a hypocritical stance relative to your own OMB guidelines concerning profanity. Allowing individuals to use foul mouthed language in order to make themselves feel better, bigger and more important damages the integrity of your board. The Flames and Canuck boards have integrity due to enforcing their guidelines and may be one of the reasons their boards are much more active with more individuals participating. You will no doubt delete this message and that is fine. No need to respond as I've deleted this link and will no longer participate.

Have you been to the Oilers Reddit or HFboards? This board is very friendly and low on profanity compared to many. Mods do a fine job and most of the bad words are filtered. We are rarely at each other's throat and when that does happen then the mods do get involved. Sorry to see anyone go... As for news there seems to be no news.

Bronco was only repeating what was already discussed on this site about the rules and how they will be applied. Hypocritical is an inaccurate label and personally I feel Bronco does a good job at enforcing them. When we all first relocated to this site it was mentioned that the rules were more relaxed regarding profanity. The fact that you are offended by certain posts is a shame, but we are all adults here and will get over this too.

Sorry windsor, but you are incorrect to say "the mods get involved". Fogolin who strangely enough is a drinking pal of Bronco's was very insulting towards me (nothing much new there except this last time I thought he overstepped the mark) hence although I occasionally read contributions on here for "insider information" I (other than this post) have not contributed myself and won't do in future. There is a definite "clique" on here, and I agree with pillotte who sees this board as not a place for bad language. So that is two people who used to post who now no longer will do so...........not a big deal looking at the big picture...........the only other option I had was to respond in like, and tell Fogolin to go Kuzmenko himself..........there, I said it, but apparently it is OK so to do on here. As Bronco was quite happy to take no action against his drinking pal. Good bye and good riddance to an ill disciplined and clique like forum with varying rules dependent upon the poster.

Blackhawk I reviewed your discussions with Fogolin2 and you are far from innocent. Bronco didnt do a thing to discipline you either so from my position it appears hypocritical that you would even bring that up.
Also this site has zero influence over who any of its members elect to socialize with

Pillote i am sorry you did not appreciate some of the language posted on the forum. I can tell you I dont appreciate you name calling other members names either.
To all members, let's just tone it down a bit, and try to realize that we all need to get along here.

World is changing, it used to be stickers like 'Azz, Grass or Gas, nobody rides for free'. Now I see F... You Trudeau/ Liberals etc. How do you explain to kids this isn't acceptable? Where does it stop? I like Happy but he did go over and above my standards, never expected him to post something I find immature. Blackhawk, I believe you got what you deserve after you posted to me something to the effect of, ' Yuke, you will never outwit me in your writings'. I didn't, someone else did. Not going to miss you.

As Bronco was quite happy to take no action against his drinking pal. Good bye and good riddance to an ill disciplined and clique like forum with varying rules dependent upon the poster. notwithstanding the fact that you yourself broke forum rules several times, and even in this very post you broke the one forbidding public discussion on how this forum is moderated... I find it incredibly distasteful that you would criticize two members for having met outside of this forum. First of all, we weren't "drinking pals" (although he's an awesome dude and look forward to our next meeting), second of all you've broken just as many forum rules as Fog has in your debates with one another. I COULD have disciplined you both, yes. But you were dealt with as I recall by SuperDave already, there was no real need for me to jump onto the dogpile. To be clear, if you were to call me up and ask me out for a beer or an iced tea I'd be very happy to meet you as well. I can't see how you take issue with the fact that a member here would like to get to know other members more personally. If tight-knit friendships and comradery are not your "cup of tea" so to speak, then I'm very sorry to see you go. But I will not have you chastise me for anything that I do in my personal life, including building friendships with others in this community.

It is clearly stated in the forum rules that profanities although against forum rules will be given certain leeway. If you prefer the "integrity" of the Flames and Canucks boards, perhaps you are better suited with joining their forums to discuss hockey. Those forums are under direct ownership of the NHL clubs that they represent, and as such are understandably bound by stricter rules. I will not delete your post, I don't make a habit of deleting posts that criticize me or my actions, I'd rather discuss it and make things right. I have big shoulders and will happily defend any action or inaction on my part... on the other hand, apparently you by leaving this forum don't share that same willingness.

How about we all stop with the finger pointing. That's what should be eliminated, name calling, throwing people under the bus, playing a victim. Superdave has had to intervene several times. So yeah, f'ing stop it.
Even if someone makes a rude comment, no need to make an ever ruder one back. That's been a trend sometimes. Two wrongs don't make a right.
So yeah, f'ing stop it.

Is frigging a bad word, no need to analyse what one says that much, we are all friends on here. So there's that too. We also all get carried away at times too, it happens. Good you pointed this out for posters that can be sensitive to "assume things"

That's what I meant. You are antagonizing with my post and the F-U Trudeau post. It's all good to me. Not worried about such things but some may be....
