1. I'd like to say that in most cases people here are accepting of people that aren't particularly into advanced stats. It's those that completely dismiss them that usually start issues (or get ganged up on should you choose to look at it from that way). No one is expected to understand math formulas or know how JFAs came up with TIPS...but be willing to understand basic stats and small sample sizes would be nice. Critical thinking isn't something that should be expected on a message board but it really should be (in all aspects of your life). Now I'll take some shots at the herd...if someone questions something you said, rather than call them an idiot...try explaining why you think that. I'll use JFAs as an example as I don't think he'd be offended. He'll make a "I'll take _______ over _________" generally most of us know that it's based on the projection systems but if someone questions him it would be great if he gave a reason outside of "he's projected at ___ wins". Again this is just an example. Not everyone wants to be here to educate others, and I understand that.
2. When a new poster comes on stop with the f***ing "are you the Dogg" posts. We are almost a year old on this board. 90% of us never check that board. Let's distance ourselves from it. If you know someone is the dogg report them and stop responding.
