posted this in a few other threads, been having some fun with it so posting here as well:

Alright, Fella's/ladies anything you've ever wanted to know about the in's and out's of Covers.com

I'll answer anything I'm permitted to.

fire away

Why do very good cappers who are doing really well start to get censored on the forum when posting picks? 

Next?

@Maui_professor

 If they tout or start selling picks or Twitter handle, that's a direct violation of the rules...We've also grabbed some of the sharp forum minds and converted them to Covers Experts.

@Carolina_Cool

 Translation...tout or selling picks is completely fine as long as Covers.com gets their cut 

@Carolina_Cool

 In 11 months when I celebrate my 20th anniversary on this site, can I expect a gold watch?

@Hugh_Jorgan

 Send me a PM when you get to 20 years, I'll see if we can get you something 

@ICAPSports

 We only take the good ones 

can't disagree more, but to each their own    

@Carolina_Cool

 Thanks Carolina for answering questions, and for having a great forum, I've seen many times spam pushing to contact them if you want winners (a bunch of hype, sales pitch), I see that Covers takes them down the best you can but they continue to pop up do the same thing under a diffrent name like weeds, Is there anyway you can approach these jerks and tell them that enough already to stop cluttering the board with there sales crap? Or will it continue to be a cat and mouse game that they will post there sales pitch post like weeds and Covers continue to do the best you can to remove them.

@OO7CRUSHER

 It's one of those things we are always looking into. Our mods do a great job considering the forums are active 24 hours a day.

I'm not an expert on the topic, but I believe when able to we can block IPs, but the issue is if it is a public IP we could be blocking good users.

Thanks for the Q

@Hugh_Jorgan

@Carolina_Cool

 Will i get a gold watch as well if i send you a PM...woohoo rockon...

@szhcik

 Right from the cereal box 

I'll see if I can get the ball rolling on recognition for our long-standing users.

@Carolina_Cool

 Think it's a great idea

@Carolina_Cool
