wait, so you are actually not allowed to reference the best wing joint in all of baton rouge?

all these other places that get named have Tigerdroppings.com banners?

thats ridiculous. he said he was having a party and invited everyone.

there is a difference between casually mentioning/recommending a place, and explicitly advertising/spamming your own place...

For someone to come on here and attempt to get free advertising is a slap in our face and is just wrong.

i fail to make a distinction here...people ask for places to watch the games and people like drink specials. Everyone wanted an idea of some place fun to hang out and drink beer he said where he was going to be and gave beer prices. if he had never mentioned he worked there it wouldn't be a problem.

He just answered the questions that were posed to him from fellow posters regarding the England game...there was lots of uncertaintity as to what bars would be open, he knew Pluckers would be and simply answered their questions....I can't see how that is different from people mentioning other bars as hot spots to watch the game

He didn't.
quote:true, but if we notice a pattern that someone is constantly promoting the same place over and over, we will certainly address it.
if he had never mentioned he worked there it wouldn't be a problem.
But what do you care? Do you have no respect for how this place is operated? Do you not grasp how a free site survives? Do you think it is proper for business to come on this site and get all the free advertising that they want? Do you think that guy just posted once about his place?
Get real...

we are also forgetting the fact that he works there (not during the world cup games), he doesn't own the place, so if Pluckers is ridiculously packed for the game...he doesn't make any money regardless
since this apparently is all about money anyways

sure i do chick, i've been around for a while, i love the site.

no to both, i know better. but he's been around longer than i have and in all honestly i believe he didn't know he was doing anything to undermine you, your site or your sponsors.
I can tell you that he sure as shite doesn't get anything out of it, and it isn't his decision on whether or not to advertise with your site because if it WAS his call, there would have been banners up long ago.
The only thing that really gets me about all this is how long he's been a member and was banned without warning or immediate explanation. Had he done the things he was accused of (knowingly) I could see the action that was taken being appropriate but there was a complete absence of malice. if gratuitous praise for your site, you and your admins would bring him back, i'm not above groveling.

I was informed that he wasn't warned...by email, pm or other wise. and i must say, the surprise of being hit with the ban hammer seemed pretty genuine to me.

I have no affiliation with the WingJoint that shall not be named and any time I answer someone's question about where to watch in BR, my post is removed. Chicken = Commie.

Soo I guess my question will not get answered... So much for asking a valid question pertaining a sporting event... I find this comical.
Anyway lets go USA! Thats whats its about after all.
