Basic Board Rules:
We'll try to keep this brief. After all, who likes abiding by and enforcing rules? Still, we ask that you read and follow these guidelines.
__________________________________________________ __________________
Members Info:
Admins and Moderators have the final say in all matters.
The Moderators have control over their individual forums, but they may also take action in other situations as they see fit. They will edit, move, or delete posts in accordance with the forum rules.
How they interpret the rules is entirely up to them, and done on a case-by-case basis. Their decisions are final. If you think they have made an unfair judgment, please bring it up in a civil manner and the problem will be discussed between the moderators.
Arguing over decisions will not get a decision overturned. Rather, it will make us mad. Repeated infractions will result in a ban.
How to avoid being banned
Be civil, and you won't be banned. If you are verbally warned once for breaking the rules, don't do it again or risk being banned.
As long as you abide the rules of the forum and any guidelines set in place for individual sections all will be fine.
Please avoid:
Arguing with the Mods/Admin about administrative actions. Arguing over baseball matters, however, is ok.
Spamming (more on this later)
Harassing or insulting members of the forum outside of the Fights section
Flaming the site or members in your posts on the forum
Advertising other sites (see spam)
The moderating team reserves the right to serve an immediate ban for any reason.
Avatars and signatures
Avatars and signatures may not contain innapropriate text, images, and/or other content.
Pornographic or nude images, illegal substances, gore, or excessive profanity are not permitted in avatars or signatures.
The moderating team reserves the right to edit any member’s avatar/signature without warning.
User Class/Rank:
The user classes and ranks are as follows.
Single A- 0 posts
Double A- 25 posts
Triple A- 75 posts
Rookie- 150 posts
Major Leaguer- 350 posts
All-Star- 750 posts
MVP- 2500 posts
Legend- 5000 posts
Custom User Title- 10000 posts
__________________________________________________ __________________
Posting Rules:
Flaming or aggressive behaviour will not be tolerated.
If you have a problem, please limit it to the ‘Fights and Crap’ forum. It is there for this reason.
Political and Religious bashing is strictly forbidden and, along with racist comments, will result in bans.
You are free to have any opinion you like, but every opinion can be expressed without offending someone else.
Spamming
Spamming is defined as the posting of self-promotional or promotional threads or posts.
It is also excessive, meaningless posting with the sole intent of increasing a user’s post count.
Please consider if your post contributes to the community before posting.
Redundant threads will be locked and/or merged with existing ones. Please use the search tool to see if a thread has already been created.
Please keep your threads and posts in the correct forums. The moderating team will move errant posts and threads, albeit grudgingly. Don’t make us hate you.
Keep in mind…
Bear in mind that you can be judged by other members not only by your content, but by your format.
Please try to use correct capitalization, grammar, and spelling in your posts.
Paragraph breaks also make longer posts easier to read. A post with paragraphs is a post that will get responses.
We aren’t a forum full of 12 year old girls, so lets try not to look like it.
Making two accounts is not permitted
If discovered, both accounts will be banned.

Talksox HOWTO:
How do I search?
Very easily. Go Here (http://www.talksox.com/forum/search.php?) and type in what you are looking for.
Search for keywords, as they will get you better results:
If you want to see if the topic of Tim Naehring’s career batting average against lefties has already been discussed, for example:
Bad Tim Naehring’s career batting average against lefties
Good Tim Naehring lefties, batting average, etc
How do I put a picture in my signature?
You don’t. Pictures in signatures have been eliminated, as they cause clutter in the forums and make the actual content difficult to read.
