Why did mod lock it? |
Not enough server space. He encouraged everyone to start a part two. |
Even your comments about things not youth soccer related dont make sense. If DCUM was running out of space wouldn't it make more sense to delete the thread? It was locked because every time people accessed the thread it brought up all 1000+ pages. Also its likely that people were searching through the 1000+ pages. Which was causing Compute and Ram issues. |
He was probably hoping they wouldn't though... I mean how much more could possibly be said about the BY/SY topic??? |
He was/is joking man... The old thread did get kinda ugly and dry at the very end. There seemed to be a few diehard MLSN guys facing off with a diehard ECNL guy. That's boring and not the true spirit of this thread. |
Thats how these kind of threads always end up. Then you get the pot stirring trolls who say outrageous things just to piss people off |
Don't forget about the people that post "inside information" that they just made up usually to try and win an argument. |
The problem is people have also posted things that end up being true. Which makes it tough to know what is real info. Or at least someone believes it to be true when they post. |
Congratulations to all the local girls picked for the "conference cup" MA and NA teams:

99x out of a 100 the "inside information" is not true. The one time a guess happens to be true whichever person likes the decision will gloat and try to rub everyone's nose in it. Claming that they were the one that had the info first. When in reality it was just a lucky guess. |
And now you have someone posting "talent id" rosters. Like it means anything. Theres already 3-4 of these going on in each league. |
It's what the MOD said "This thread has gotten so long that reading it puts a huge load on the server. Therefore, I am going to lock it. Feel free to start a "Part 2" of the thread." Look it up before you start spouting comments that make no sense. |
I am that someone. I don't have kids of those ages, but think it is an accomplishment and didn't want to start another thread since this one is all things ECNL plus you two bickering at each other like an old married couple. |
Ugh... You don't even understand when you're wrong. |
A Dc urban soccer mom happy hour should be pt 2 of the convo. |
