I've supported PWX from the beginning, but this board is awful. What is with the overwhelming racism and seemingly lack of tact and any sort of thought process beyond grammar school level?

It sucks, but you have to keep in mind that many of the people you're talking to don't read books, many of them are young, and the anonymity of the internet makes everyone into a tough guy.
This board does indeed suck. If 4 freaking threads on an attempt to get an Ice Cream man CAW in the game is any indication on what the future holds for a PWX online community then I will have nothing to do with it. I'm starting to think that either Dratsab is actually half the people on this board or that he and a group of his e-fed buddies are trolling the boards.
You'll get no arguments from me. Dave and I are both busy, and it's tough babysitting this. We knew what we were getting into, but it makes my mind boggle sometimes. The negativity, the offtopics, the self-linking.... I guess I wasn't clear about the rules around here. Or more accurately, we weren't real good about enforcing them.
I am going on a "remove thread" spree, in the hopes that we can get things back on track. Thanks for hanging in there.

It is true that I got a few of my friends to join the PWX forums, if that's what you are saying. Don't see how me getting more supporters of PWX is a bad thing.
Just before this turns into a flame war, I'm locking this down. To summarize:
1) I'm sorry we've let things get out of control.
2) We're going to do better in the future to keep this a positive environment, and one where people respect each other and the rules.
We all want the same thing here. Dave and the dev crew are busting their asses trying to build a game that will satisfy all the great wrestling fans out there. But that isn't easy. If it were, everybody would be doing it. While we ALWAYS listen to constructive feedback, the outright hated of every little thing, just to be hateful... that is really tough to deal with.
Remember: there are many, many different kinds of wrestling fans, each with their own likes and dislikes. We're trying to make as many of them as happy as we can. And if we make a decision on a feature, it's not done randomly. It's based on all the feedback Dave gets day in and day out. So the next time you want to hate just to be hateful, and not offer anything better, post it somewhere else.
All the hating also pertains to other forum members. We aren't asking you to all like each other... that ain't gonna happen. Be at least respect one another. Any personal attack will result in a week long ban. The next time, it's a permanent ban.
Sucks that it has come to this, but we have to change the direction these boards are headed.
