We will not under any circumstances tolerate post that have the sole purpose of starting wars over race.

That member has been banned and so will anyone else that pulls similiar stunts.

Check out the lounge.

The only banned member I've seen is Boxing Collector.

the espn.com boxing board is much worse, infact, the whole espn.com website is filled with crap as far as their messageboards go, i see offensive stuff there all the time, and its sad.

Edit: I think more people should point out and make fun of the fact that "papa" trinidad always has something to say for his son.

my bean burrito eating ass was getting worry about all this hate.lol NIce call Rick, I hope you are not mad at me for taking some points from you

Then that answers your question, doesn't it?

I assume you are going to ban the author of the thread "Big Lumbering White Heavyweights ". Actually that post and author should have been removed first according to your criterion because it is PRIMA FACIE race baiting. :) I hope there are no double standards here.

I don't think he over stepped his boundries. It may have been borderline baiting, but he was trying to make a point about white heavyweight boxers. I had no complaints about the author the thread. I did have 77 post reports from over 50 users on the guy who went on a wil rant about "White America" and he went way over board with posting direct links to forum areas that cater to supremacy groups. Not only did he do that thread, he went and started another thread in the Lounge on the same sunject.

I tolerate a lot and let plenty slip by from everyone, but race is a very touchy issue that I have personally seen destroy other boards. I really need to appoint some good mods to keep watch because this forum is growing at an alarming rate and due to my schedule, I cant read every post.

Good, that guy was an *******. Where is the ignore button?

there is a blocking list feature in the account section

wow...i mean i can understand racial jokes thrown back and forth and all in fun and not getting serious..but lol..what..wtf this guy posted white supremacy sites...i mean if he didnt think he was gonna get banned for that he's an idiot..anyway i bet he's hella pissed reading this thread about him..cuz he can still read the thread even if he band i think right...?

I disagree RR but you are the boss. I just think that unless you are soliciting a list of boxing accomplishment based on race any mention of white, black, yellow, red etc. in the thread title is race baiting especially when conjoined with such a derogatory word as "lumbering". As far as complaints go if discourse is constantly defined by popular opinion it will cease to exist...

-My last 2 cents on this issue

"Lumbering" I believe separated the group of fighters he was talking about from the other white fighters. I think that acquits him of baiting. But like I said on the thread, it looks like the inclusion of the word "white" invites potential controversy.

Good call Rick . . . may it serve as a reminder and example to all. NO RACISM PLEASE!

It has nothing to do with popular opinion. I make the last call regardless of complaints, I didnt act until he was posting links to supremecy websites. I havent decided if the ban is permamnent yet. It just surprises me that the guy posting the links runs a boxing tape selling/trade business and would be doing these kinds of posts.

It is sad really. I'm new the forum and was very shocked to see that racist nonsense. Thanks for giving him the boot.

Thanks for clearing that up.

Will you ever lower the prices on store actions?
I've noticed that you continue to change the price on them and I was wondering if there was ever going to be a permanent price.

Another one bites the dust!

There have been some really heated arguments on this site regarding race. Who was that dude that Asian Sensation used to battle it out with?? Those were some LOL moments.
