"someone" mentions that these threads may be directly related to another "incident" and then everyone just assumes/guesses that that's what they are. hell, I can't even mention some of the players or plays for these very same reasons.
see?

Again, there's a difference between an educated guess and an assumption. Also, there may have been some things that happened that you may not know about. I don't mean that in an "I-know-better-than-you" sort of way, it's just there's plenty the moderators do that we don't advertise.
"Every chance we get," huh? I'm sorry you feel that way. Really. Fact of the matter is that the mods have intervened very little with regard to recent events. Maybe these threads have been "lighthearted," but obviously there's some folks, and not just mods, who haven't seen things that way. However, no one has been called to task on them. I entered the conversation because I'd rather we all get our cards out on the table than "assume" anything.
It's a very tough line to walk sometimes. Posts get reported to you, and not always by the "victim." We try to weigh everyone's rights and keep the board a welcoming, friendly place, not like an insular club. I suppose some times we do better than others.
