SN Discussion Board Rules – Posting any of the following will result in possible deletion of your post or transferring to the private forum:

1. Profanity (including creative misspellings & keystrokes to circumvent the profanity filter)

2. Physical threats against other members (obvious or veiled)

3. Offensive content, material which is not suitable for a minor, or links to such material. Examples of such material are as follows:

Nudity, partial nudity, or adult content. Exposed breasts, nipples (including ones visible through material), penises and vaginas, and gluteal areas aren't permitted. An image doesn't have to contain complete nudity for it to be out of place - if there's a great deal of exposed skin and/or minimal fabric covering, it's frowned upon. Any picture of marital aides etc fall into this category.

Graphic image content: Images that would make most viewers feel ill, upset, or uncomfortable. This includes but is not limited to: cadavers, autopsies, surgeries, vomiting, severed limbs, alarming deformities, dead animals, extreme body modifications, torture, and bodily functions are not to be posted in the threads. Images that depict graphic content will be deleted, and images containing child pornography will be reported to the appropriate local and Federal law enforcement agencies.

The use of images depicting well-known tragedies such as 9/11 or Hitler/the Holocaust is not forbidden - but is generally frowned upon. Additionally images which depict people or animals dying (falling to their death, being killed in various ways - e.g. shot, maimed/tortured, etc.) should also not be posted or linked to as some people may find these offensive.

Discussion about the solicitation, distribution or manufacture of illegal drugs. This includes posting images of illegal drugs

Graphic text comments: Graphic language fits right in with content. This is not an erotica site, nor a place for "who can tell the most disgusting story" contests, or a journal for your (or anyone else's) bodily/biological functions.
Messages exhorting others to commit illegal acts: Murder, extortion, and any other misdemeanor or felony is expressly forbidden.
Hate speech: Extremely inflammatory comments directed at a particular ethnic group, sexual orientation, gender, religion, etc. are unacceptable and unwelcome.
Posts which undesirably 'out' persons of a homosexual nature, transgendered, etc. are also forbidden.

4. Messages containing public OR private information that could result in identity theft or harassment: We are aware that most of this information can be found using Whois, or Google, or a phone book - however, making undesired posts which list other message board users' personal information such as private email addresses, phone numbers, street addresses, credit card numbers, bank account information, salaries, etc. are not allowed.

5. Links to downloads of copyrighted material such as music, movies, TV shows, etc.

6. Causing harm to the message board. Examples of causing harm to the message board include: (but are not limited to) inserting malicious code, posting of large files which affect screen resolution or download times, spamming, (defined as multiple posting of an identical or similar post on one or more of our forums in an attempt to force the message on people who would not otherwise choose to receive it. Alternatively, multiple posting of a nonsense message or "bumping" of old threads for no reason) and/or any other behavior that disrupts normal performance of the message board.

Thanks for all the info, it is appreciated!!

So far we have collected $940 for 47 bag tags sold. Have an additional 13 sold but not collected and 17 more available.

At this point we have sold 60 bag tags. Hopefully we will sell more bag tags between now and the end of the year. I know based on past experience that very few are sold after the 1st of the year. We still have a ways to go just to match the 139 sold/collected for last year. I know part of the problem is getting the tags into the hands of TDs who run tournaments so they can outright sell them or even use them as prizes.

The tags are a great way to generate money for the SNPC and hopefully some new and clever ways of promoting and selling the tags can be thought up. I know this has been a challenge not just this year but previous years as well. Getting good contact information for the TDs that run SN tournaments is a good step because when it's all said and done TDs are the backbone of the SN. So thank a TD and buy a SN bag tag!!

Thanks for the work the SN Board is doing....

JOhn k

John...I am keeping a spreadsheet of the bag tags...when additional info is available let me know.

I appreciate the update...THANKS!

Seems to be quite the productive meeting


Way to step it up Board Members






Thanks
Dex

Thanks a lot for the work you are doing. I really appreciate the time and effort that is being put forth on behalf of the SN by each of you.

Many of you are aware of the issue that I had with the reading of the rule concerning age requirements to play Masters. Could you please update the rule on the SN site to make it more clear as to the difference between season and year. If necessary use some examples to make it easy for TDs to understand.

Respectfully yours,

Shane

Transparency of information breeds self correcting behavior!

Good call Shane... glad you reminded us.
