Scott,
Didn't Jack create the section "Sports teams and their fans" just for the issues that you seem to have with other people? So why not take some of the stuff there and I am sure it would not bother anyone in the least! I find the vast majority of your posts to be informative and usually very well thought out, but I think you take things to the edge and rub people the wrong way by using words such as FACTOIDS and there are other terms you use that can or could be construed by others as demeaning. This is Jack's board and what he decides to do at his board is really his and his business, so even if you feel that you have a good argument about this issue and you have brought up a few valid points, but what do you really expect to get out of this type of thread? As I stated earlier, I think your a knowledgeable capper and I personally enjoy your banter even though I feel your full of shit half the time, but I really don't see how this thread benefits you or anyone else as it only makes the situation worse.
Thanks for nice words. To answer your question, I did exactly what my title said. Voiced my complaint. It me taking a situation where I was wronged and letting everyone know it. Whether it changes anything, I don't know. I don't run the site. But why are people against voicing their opinion against this site even if it is a negative complaint? I am not afraid of MJ or the moderators. I treat them like anybody else. I am sure MJ would want that instead of being God like status. I respect them but I think they made an error and I obviously have not been treated fairly. You stated I had valid pts. MJ is human and will make mistakes. Same with the moderators. I am letting them and the posters on this site know that I think a mistake happened in me getting banned for 2 days. Simple as that. An apology or them admitting they made to harsh of a decision would be nice. I just don't like being treated differently than others on the site. I know it is not my site, but like it or not, I am a part of it until I get banned. If I think another poster on this site is beaing treated wrongly, I am not afraid to stand up for him or her. In this case, it is me who is getting treated wrongly. I have proven it.
All in all, my post somehow might make this site better in the future. Maybe the moderators or MJ himself will now make an effort in treating everyone more failry. Maybe others will not be afraid to speak their true feelings about this site down the road. If someone feels they have been wronged, they can take action and post it without fear of MJ banning them. For the most part, posters on this site treat MJ and moderators as a dictator or God like status. Look at the replies in this thread. Not everything they do is right. If you think they do something wrong, post it and "maybe" things get corrected.
Overall, MJ and the moderators do an excellent job running this site and I am glad to be a part of it as long as MJ allows me too. That is why I chose to post at this site and not others. I will not carry a grudge against him or mods. Like I said above, this thread will die soon and things be forgotten.
I guess I had a glimmer of hope the moderators would be man enough to admit they were wrong handling my situation. All I could do is plead my case which clearly I did. There is still hope for an apology!

Scott,
I read your posts all the time and I think you are a complete tool. I look at car wrecks when I drive by them too. When I get a cut, I put Iodine on it and like the pain, which proves nothing.
Thats fine you like to read my posts. But don't be bitching about them! When you start to bitch about them, then it is time to put me on ignore list! Get it? Laugh all you want behind your computer at my posts. I could care less. Just don't bitch about them.
"I never start USC posts...............only 1 in 50........blah blah blah.........." Who in the hell goes back and looks up their last fifty posts and then tallies up the comments? What kind of a freak does that stuff and then goes on to post it.
#1 it doesn't take long to look back at your post history. MJ has great site with easy to use features. Check out the features. VERY EASY to use and navigate.
#2 it proved my point. It was the evidence that backed up my complaint. It is factual data. Then people like you can't dispute what I say.
#3 I could say I don't do something, and have nothing to support my argument. Who gives a crap. Gives me no credibility. Now look at what you say below.
but to say that nobody in here will debate with you or that you are 100% correct about whatever you say....................you only know anything about one friggin suject for chrissakes. I would debate you anytime on any subject,
You say you can debate me anytime bla bla bla, but you don't do it. Or can't do it. Or whatever. Your post is all talk and no action. Who cares if you think you can outdebate me or smarter than me. You quoted me saying I am 100% correct. On what? You fail to clarify yourself and your argument. I clearly stated I am not 100% right on everything. So what is up with that quote of yours?
Then I gave an example of someone who does debate me and who I appreciate debating. G-man2. Then you post accusing me of saying nobody in here will debate me? Again, your post is meaningless with no direction.
