Can we get a moratorium on Jim Cornette topics the way we did with Vince Russo when his toxicity was infesting the boards a couple years ago, they never turn out well and it’s the same arguments every time.

I want to post a part of a Botchamania, on youtube, from a certain time. Is that still a violation of IP with the WWE?

Can I know why all these Jim Cornette threads are allowed to go on forever?
It's the same points being repeated ad nauseum. Threads have been closed for much less of the vitriol that is spewed in those threads.
Jim Cornette threads are always the same - scumbag, how dare you defend him? Racist! Xenophone! Old man! f*** this guy.
We get it... Can we move on?

There's even a running joke in the threads about how short they'll last. This one has been fine outside of like, one post in the whole thread so I don't see the need to lock it. Plus the events are still in motion so there's quite a bit to discuss.

I understand topics on current events like what happened on NWA Powerrr but it seems like the Wrest section gets dominated by three to four Cornette topics a week about some random thing he tweeted. I just remember there ended up being an all purpose Russo thread when this happened with him years ago and I don't see why that can't work for Cornette barring circumstances like yesterday where a singular topic on the event is necessary.

I'm going to be as careful as I can here to not start an argument in this thread: In an internet that is increasingly not fun to explore due to free speech absolutists, I appreciate that our mod team constantly stands up for decency and us treating each other the way we would in real life.
You're all great and I appreciate you.

I know that I can be considered the aggressor in the Cornette thread, and I accept any punishment thrown my way. Just wanted to say that I respect the hell out of you all, as someone having to moderate the discussion at Syracuse U this week. Much love for making sure that this truly is a safe space for everyone being themselves and their allies.

I just remember there ended up being an all purpose Russo thread when this happened with him years ago and I don't see why that can't work for Cornette barring circumstances like yesterday where a singular topic on the event is necessary. I've resisted the need for it because I have always felt Cornette was too integral to too many parts and areas of the business to relegate to one thread. With that said, I think with what appears to be an increasingly erratic (my term, everyone else can call it whatever they prefer) outlook, I think it may be time to relegate anything he says past this point to an all-inclusive (and HEAVILY moderated) thread. I'm going to be as careful as I can here to not start an argument in this thread: In an internet that is increasingly not fun to explore due to free speech absolutists, I appreciate that our mod team constantly stands up for decency and us treating each other the way we would in real life.

Just wanted to say that I respect the hell out of you all, as someone having to moderate the discussion at Syracuse U this week. Much love for making sure that this truly is a safe space for everyone being themselves and their allies. Thank you both - I know we aren't perfect and I know I myself am far, far, far from always making the right choices in terms of how to administrate each and every time, but I've wanted this place to be different from everything out there from the beginning. I kind of joke sometimes that I'm the asshole who makes sure we don't have other assholes around, and sometimes I lean too heavy into it, but it is what it is and I strive to get better at handling that. I've lost strong friendships over this and I'd do it again in a heartbeat to make sure you all have something worth posting on. But it's you guys, all of you, that make the concept work. From the moderators who I will always be eternally grateful to, to the thousands of members/posters over the years that have contributed to the boards, it's you guys that make this work. Thank YOU. All of you.

Yeh now that I took more of a backside to the Cornette thread I see how much work those are to the mods.Sometimes it can feel like a thanksless job but I think at least in this board all the mods know we appreciate the hard work.

Hi Folks, Cheers for everything you do. Just wondering what the rules are on posting/embedding AEW videos I've started the AEW Memorable Moments thread ( officialfan.proboards.com/thread/594319/aew-iconic-moments) So far I've only embedded videos from the AEW youtube as I figured those were safe. But there's some stuff that's been posted by Bleacher Report that hasn't by AEW (e.g. MJF/Jericho from last week). Just wondering what the status of Bleacher Report and Fite youtube channels is as they're official partners of AEW.

Where does an IMGUR GIFV of WWE footage fall? Okay like a gif? Or a verboten WWE video embed?
I assume since you use the video button to post them it counts as a video, but they're also short like a gif and often don't have sound.

I am confused about the NFL overall thread getting locked. The locking post said something about moving to a new home, but there isn't a new thread or anything I can find.
