I thought name calling and personal attacks were the basis for deleting posts? I this really your responsiblity? I really don't care when any of rankings come out, just think it's interesting that you feel compelled to do this. What's a "period of time"?

What a slippery slope! Not only did you start the thread, you are now censoring the very information paid for by others (rhetorical)? If I buy a pack of gum are you going to follow me around so that I don't share? I understand your attempt to be honorable and do the right thing by inter-mat, however if a paid member would like to re-post the information they paid for in part, or whole at their own discretion, is that really up to you to police them? You may say no, however it is your duty to police this site. I would then ask the question, what gives you the right to re-post the information? Oh, I forgot! When you see fit? You may then just scrap the entire idea of sharing the information, well I wanna know now that you brought it up!

I would guess it's not Twist making that decision. I think copyright law is dictating the release and postings on other forums.

Not quiet sure what you are saying here. The bottom-line is we won't allow someone to by pass Intermats paid pages to post info for free for everyone else. We are in partnership with Intermat and will respect their website as they do ours. This has been the policy here since the inception of the Top Ten list and also applies to any other paid site. Should this really bother you feel free to sign up for the paid subscription to Intermat and you may see everything on day one. The period of time will probably be 2-4 weeks from Intermat's release date.

As far as my responsibility or being compelled to do anything it is my job to moderate and run this website in conjunction with the other mods and admins for fairness to all. This is supported by the website owner. If you have an issue with my duties and how I handle them contact mike@illinoismatmen.com.

Intermat who I work for gave me the right. I started the thread because every year this is a potential problem that we want to advert. Paid member or not Intermat has asked that info from their subscription service not be reposted until a specific point in time. If a paid member can produce something in writing from Andrew Hipps, owner of Intermat we will honor that. Otherwise what I have posted will stand. I hope that answers your question.

This is simple, start your own website. Then you can post whatever you see fit.

I don't know how you do it Twist. I would go postal on some of these people. Always giving you $hit for no reason.

Things like this don't bother me.Remember I umpire DI baseball (and football crew chief) so I am use to differences of opinions and being the ump (or ref with two flags) I always win if I want to. I been married 27 years so I have learned how and when to argue or let what is not important bother me. Some people are just contrary and can't help it!

Besides that my mother taught me "Forewarned is forearmed". I am forewarning what will happen. Members can either heed our warning or get their posting of a paid website deleted.
