1.) Yes. Individual posts aside, I fail to see what rule his general posting violates. You could maybe make an argument that his trip report thread, in particular, might be relegated to the Betting Systems sub-forum, but even that would have nothing to do with whether or not he could post there. It also wouldn't matter much as I tend to believe most active posters just use the, "Recent/Unread Threads," function.Originally Posted by redietz
The only Rule you could invoke is Rule 20, which exists if someone is totally disruptive but such disruption doesn't strictly apply to the other 19 Rules. This rule states that it applies to, "The Worst of Trolls," but MDawg seems to mainly keep to his own threads. Also, the only way for MDawg to be considered as Trolling would be for his claims to be disproven beyond a reasonable doubt, but that would most likely require some form of Doxxing (and that's IF his claims aren't true) which would be a rule violation of its own.
2.) Yes. This forum is more loosely Moderated than WoV, so if I'd let MDawg remain at WoV, I'd obviously let him remain here.
3.) Yes, but if the whole thing became too pervasive I'd just have a single thread called, "Trip Reports," that would probably have some sort of a general disclaimer on it. The disclaimer would be something along the lines of these are events that are shared by contributors to this site, but the site allowing the sharing of such events does not mean that the site considers the events to be true and that individual gambling experiences will vary. Also, betting systems will not beat a negative expectation game.
