I am concerned about the enforcement of BAP rules.
There is talk of possible expulsion if a player fails to post a swing hand or winning hand.
I believe that everyone is trying to comply the best they can.
But, there are so many things that can prevent a person from posting.
1. kids and family issues
2. forgot
3. don't know how
4. only 4 players left and the game pace is too fast to copy and paint
5. fast paced game and I got 3 huge hands in a row and can't find the time to post
6. not very computer savy
7. just plain slow or stupid
Because of all or any of these reasons, one could argue that it would be discrimination if anyone got banned from play for failing to follow rules.
It's almost impossible to enforce anyway.
What if someone breaks a rule 1 week and 1 more time 2 months later?
Does that count as two and your out?
Is that as bad as a blatent refusal to comply?
What if someone made an honest mistake and reacts poorly to a warning
or a blatent rule breaker brown noses and apologizes over and over.
My advise is to forget rules enforcement before a fight breaks out over this and anarchy takes over.
Instead of the word enforcement, try the word encouraged.
Members will stay much happier over the long run.
What's more important?
The members comradery and happiness or a hierarchy authoritative forum that stresses everyone out?
Playing for the BAP is stressful enough already.
