I have had some feuds with some Nationals posters. We are supporting the same team. Whenever I post a message that points out a problem with the Nationals or the city of DC, I get violent threats.
I don't feel comfortable posting in the MLB forum anymore because of the hostile environment.
All of the above are some of the reasons why I started this site
I haven't experienced too much "internal" strife at the MLB boards, but then I haven't done a lot of criticizing of the team so far, either.
This site will remain in wait-and-see mode for a while. I will try to refrain from "over-moderating", but I do ask that we all try to be as civil as possible. It will make my job a lot easier and hopefully lead to a more comfortable and friendlier environment than is often found at the MLB message boards.
