    NEW POLICY (Updated: Nov 2007)

    1. Recently I have been noticing that there has been a lot of trolls and racist comments. This is the Japanese forum, NOT East Asian Forum. We only talk about Japan. Any posts not related to Japan or the thread title will be considered as Trolling/Over Topic and will be deleted immediately. Poster will also receive caution points (no warning will be given) for the first offense and bans for multiple offense!!

    90% of the problems in this forum can be solved, if people just stick with that one simple rule. Unless, otherwise noted in the thread title..., such as "ACL thread", people should not post/mention anything outside of Japan!!

    2. If you are trolling, making racist comments, or making personal attacks, the same rules apply.

    3. When you make a new thread with results, please put "[R]" on the thread title.

    examples:
    02.04.04 Japan NT vs. USA NT [R]
    2007 ACL Thread [R]

    Socks And Trolls == Everybody Read Well

    Hi everybody.

    First of all we want to say we are very happy and proud of the little "J-tribe" that is growing up on this forum. There's plenty of interesting, smart and knowledgeable people here that make it more fun to follow the J-League and Japan's NTs.

    It is our intention and our duty as moderators to protect this community.

    We do NOT want this Japanese forum to degenerate as some other forums you might see around. This is a place where fans come to talk about soccer and to HAVE A GOOD TIME.

    At the moment we are facing two redundant problems, and we're putting a patch on them.

    TROLLS = usually they're found in threads regarding International soccer. They either insult and/or tease Japanese teams, or annoy us with "*** is better than Japan, nya-nya-nya!!" kind of messages.
    Unuseful posts will be deleted, and trolls will be banned immediately from our forum.
    Fans from other teams are welcome, as far as their participation helps to make the discussion more interesting: Fair Play, please.

    SOCKS = These are users who enter BigSoccer forums with different names simultaneously. Such practice is unacceptable. So far we have limited our mod activity to banning/redding socks secondary IDs (the new ones), from now on we will persecute the original ID as well--it doesn't matter how long it has been around on BigSoccer.
    BigSoccer has a system that reveals new socks in less than 12 hours, if you want to test it, please go ahead... please keep in mind that it takes a certain time to create a sock, while one click is enough to ban a user. It is a no-win for socks.

    Finally, in order to keep this forum more engaging and to build a better community, we would like to invite every new regular participant to introduce him/herself with a short post. You do not have to give your name, where you live etc., but you can let us know what your interests are, which team you support, etc...

    We count on your cooperation to keep this forum a cool, fun place.

    The Moderators.

    IMPORTANT MESSAGE.

    Lately there have been a few users who joined our forum and have been automatically redded (=kicked out) by a system that identifies them as sock (=coming to BigSoccer with two or more IDs) or previous offender.

    This would explain while some of the contributors to this blog sometimes get suddenly redded, apparently with no reason.

    If you are blacklisted for previous offenses, it doesn't mean you can not return to this forum. All you need to do is to subscribe without creating a sock, and begin with identifying yourself and perhaps apologizing for your previous misdeeds.

    Hey, we all do/say some BS at times. I have gone above the lines myself, a few times. It happens.

    So, rather than trying to cheat a system that will ALWAYS bust you, just redeem yourself and be one of us again, so that you can continue to write and discuss Japanese soccer in this community.

    Thanks.
