Policy reminder

11:05 AM

ChiefsPlanet is a source of news for our members, lurkers, and sometimes even the paid media. We take pride in this. Many of our members no longer frequent their old Chiefs news haunts because everything hits here as soon as it is available. We've even been known to scoop the traditional media at times. We have a good thing going here and we'd like to preserve the good reputation we've earned in cyperspace.

Posting unconfirmed speculation as fact will not be tolerated. Posting same as a joke without some distinguishable sattire "tell" will not be tolerated. These are bannable offenses. If somebody heard it on the radio in Japan, you better identify that questionable source so we know to take it with a grain of salt. If you got it off the Star's BB, that's okay but please identify your source. If you don't want to ID your source, then post it as an opinion or a guess - not fact.

Another reminder: if you cut and paste an article from anywhere else, please leave a courtesy link. If there is no link, your thread is at risk for deletion. ChiefsPlanet could actually get in trouble for this practice.

Thanks for your attention.

Oh - sorry about that. I didn't intend to come off that way.

Excellent policy.

Coach · 03-02-2005, 01:30 AM

Good policy. By the way, how are you feeling Jim? Recovering nicely I hope?

I will affirm Phil ... I used to watch KFFL, Fox, U.S.A., ESPN, TSN, SI, etc. but mostly I just catch the news right here.

You didn't mention the "radio program" replays ... we all know the reporter can be biased but you guys keep those coming. Those of us who live far away from KC don't get that kind of news. You do us a great service!!!

So, let's turn this thread into what I think Phil meant ... a positive emphasis towards reporting the truth. There is already enough fiction coming out of the Chiefs offices!!!

Yeah - that's what I meant.

Thanks for the translation.

Just a suggestion. A policy of puting the source of the rumor/news in the thread title may be nice way of filtering some of the BS.

**HemiEd** · 03-02-2005, 05:28 AM

I like it a lot. It is true, very true about not checking other sources for news anymore for me.

I note also that anytime you read the article elsewhere on the Internet, adding a link to your post is a no-brainer. I'll never understand why more posters don't do this...
