Terms of Service update

15. People on this board collect a variable range of items. From prospect cards, to vintage cards, game used material, and all sorts of other memorabilia. No one should be mocked for what they collect or how they collect it. Doing this is a detriment to the community as a whole, so please do not mock people for what they choose to collect. If you can't handle discussions about a wide array of collectibles, then move along. Anyone found attacking others in this manner will be dealt with further by the FCB staff.


For the most part, things on the board run pretty smoothly. However we as a staff feel that this rule will help things flow a bit better.

Please observe it, and enjoy your time here on FCB.

Wonder what sprung this up.

 

[Card Magnet]

Really? There has a to be a rule on this?

It just seems like it would be common courtesy as a person. I guess somebody somewhere did something to give reason for the rule to be written though.

 

[Jaypers]

Why this rule wasn't implemented on the BMB is something I'll never understand.

 

[thegreathambino]

yea, this should just be common sense, shouldn't have to be a rule, but nevertheless,

 

[muskiesfan]

Chris- I am sure that this will get a lot of replies which will keep it on the first page, but should you maybe sticky it?

regardless of who did what to whom


it's in writing now, and will be enforced

I am proud to say that violations of this rule have been rare given our size. But they do happen, and now we have a rule about it.

As long as I can still mock Beanie Babies, Pokemon, and Magic The Gathering, I'm good.

Anyone read the article about Sea Shell collectors in this month's Smithsonian magazine? And I thought we all were crazy!
