The amount of borderline/unnacceptable posts in this section has been increasing over the weeks. Predictions are meant to be predictions, not a way to attack someone you have a problem with. Cheating accusations can go in another forum.
That being said, predictions can have some light smack in them. It makes things more interesting and allows more substance in predictions. Trypants tried the predictions only approach (no comments no smack) and the number of views and posts went down dramatically.
If you wish to call someone out for being a baddie of the week, dropping a 10 bomb in a scrim, calling a team out for losing to a CAL-O squad, or any other kind of game related smack is fine. Responding in kind to said smack is also fine so long as the discussion doesn't go too far off topic.
Going beyond smack to personal insults or accusations of cheating (doesn't include "X cheets!") is unwanted and will not be tolerated. I'm sure we are all old enough to handle such insults but they simply have no place in a prediction thread.
If you have a beef with someone for something they have said in a prediction and feel the need to take it to a personal level then there are other avenues of response which you can take. Private Messages or other forum areas are availible for you to air your dirty laundry.
