Is not meeting a baseball player suitable for baseball talk? See, it was a baseball player. On a division rival. A professional.

In my opinion you seriously need to reconsider what is baseball talk and what is not.

There's gray area but it was a thread asking people to join him in flashchat to discuss the meeting. If he wrote about his experience in the thread it most likely would have stayed.

I didn't know he was asking people to go into flashchat right now. I took it as he would talk about it at the next flashchat.

The guy just came back from a hiatus...I'd ease him in.

I'd like to think we treat everyone equally bad.

Baseball talk?

No tv tomorrow? (Sorry Doc)

4/13 game not showing on Comcast EI?

MLB.TV

Like I said there's gray area but I will say those threads tried to start a discussion, which always gets bonus points. With thread moving sometimes we're damned if we do and damned if we don't. Unfortunately It's not a policy we can completely codify, but we do our best. That being said, we do appreciate your feedback.

Just my opinion, but every thread title is trying to start a discussion. If it doesn't warrant discussion, it will die it's cruel death soon enough. And I'm not complaining for myself, but if I posted in a forum after a long absence, and got moved...we want good members, right?

Personally, I don't think every thread is created to start a discussion. CT has some fine examples of this (I'm not calling his thread CT). I don't want too many threads cluttering BT if they aren't discussion oriented and related to baseball. We want good members, and I think we'll attract them by maintaining a high quality BT.

BTW, I'm not bagging on the thread in question. I'm not saying it was a horrible low quality thread, but IMO it didn't belong in BT.

OK, I'm just trying to give a different viewpoint.

I don't want too many threads cluttering BT if they aren't discussion oriented and related to baseball.

I don't see what meeting a pro baseball player doesn't have to do with baseball.

I think we interpret the intent of the thread differently. Again, we appreciate your feedback.
