Baseball Toaster was unplugged on February 4, 2009.
Jon's other site:
Screen Jam
TV and more ...
1) using profanity or any euphemisms for profanity
2) personally attacking other commenters
3) baiting other commenters
4) arguing for the sake of arguing
5) discussing politics
6) using hyperbole when something less will suffice
7) using sarcasm in a way that can be misinterpreted negatively
8) making the same point over and over again
9) typing "no-hitter" or "perfect game" to describe either in progress
10) being annoyed by the existence of this list
11) commenting under the obvious influence
12) claiming your opinion isn't allowed when it's just being disagreed with
Missed you all ... good to be back. Hope many of you are getting as many days off as possible to enjoy this week - and thanks for responding so positively to my most recent message.
Oh - and about the double-posting problem - we've tried to solve it, and we are working on improvements to the site. In the meantime, know that the first time you post, it usually goes through even if you get an "internal server error" message.
As a precaution, I suggest that just before you post, copy the entire text of your message to your clipboard (control-A, control-C or apple-A, apple-C for example) and hang onto it to see if your post registers. Sometimes, it doesn't happen until the next person after you posts a comment. Sorry for the frustration!
