Regarding the thread like the John Smoltz one, why not just immediately lock it. That way you won't be deleting it but still getting the point across that it is not applicable to the board. |

Who played Billy in the Seinfeld episode "The Sponge"? Hint: This is baseball related though not particularly "vintage". |

Steve- I've never heard that one and I don't know. I just remember he promises Elaine that he will trim his sideburns. |

Board Policy -- Deleting off-topic posts
Posted By: leon
I feel memorabilia topics on this card site/side should be considered off topic as any other off topic...and permitted per the forum rules. With that being said the place to really talk about that stuff is on the memorabilia side. I would not want to delete or lock memorabilia off topics over here though.....again, no different than any other O/T in my opinion, except they are less off topic than some other off topics . If they get out of hand, which I am sure they won't, then that's another story. We want this place to be as open as possible with respect to the few rules we have..It's real easy though...IF you post about pre-war vintage baseball cards, or do an occasional off topic, all is well. Thanks again to everyone for making this a great site. best regards |

Barry why should the thread about Smoltz be locked? I clearly followed board rules. Its stated that regular users are allowed an occasional off topic thread. I utilized the ability to post my occasional off topic thread. I dont think it needs to be locked or anything else for that matter, it should just be left alone. I totally agree that they should be occasional, keeping it down to once per month as Leon put it sounds fine. |

I agree with you once again....although I would think for great participant's like yourself, or so many others, once a month for an O/T is almost not enough.....as long as we keep in our mind the focus of the board is the key here...I have never seen you come close to doing anything wrong....yet ....take care |

Dylan- I wasn't the one who locked it, and because of my own shenanigans I may not be the best person to answer your question. I think perhaps what Smoltz did in winning his 200th game really wasn't significant enough to warrant a special thread. There's always somebody passing some milestone, and there are dozens of current players who could be considered worthy of HOF induction. |

Is it my imagination or has part of this thread been deleted? I've never seen a thread before that's half here, and half gone. Or am I wrong about this? |
