Absolutely. As an example, here in WNY we have the Bills. The Bills have been terrible for almost 20 years. But it doesn't matter in the media landscape. All the local papers, tv stations, websites, radio shows talk about them incessantly and always have. No move is too small to notice and people eat it up. No one has…

This is Dana White levels of control freak psychopathy.

There should be a system for the admins to allow commenters to be trusted to post immediately, because if they did anything dodgy (such as post a gif like the ones that have caused the…

Agreed. They need a clear procedure for getting out of the grays. I posted for months (sometimes sporadically), I always posted relatively good quality posts (I check my spelling and try to stay on topic), and I sometimes even managed to get lots of recommends.
