First off.............welcome to The Official Message Board for the AIFA. This board was set up "By the fans.........for the fans". With that, I have to address some issues of late.
1st: Please refrain from defamatory comments about others. It will not be tolerated. Those posts will be edited by a FAB member and/or deleted. And a warning will be issued.
2nd: Another issue, is the all out trashing of our league and/or teams. This board is made up for the good, and bad issues. However, posting constant slams against our league and/or teams because you are a disgruntled former employee will not be accepted. Or someone that isn't a fan of our league at all.
examples: If you have issues with players not being paid. By all means, post it and ask questions. But, if you have no business with the AIFA, and want to post one sided negative threads. Don't do it. You are not looking to help make the league stronger. As our fans wish.
This board has ran "openly" and protected Free Speech for well over two years now. Unlike other message boards, where negative stuff is posted. It is deleted right away, with no explanation. The FAB, League Owners, Fans, and myself are beyond sick of people that aren't fans of the AIFA trying to bring our league down. We get emails, phone calls, and PM's from our supporters that want nothing to do with a few choice individuals. And are threatening to leave our boards because of it. Well, this has come to a complete stop......Right Now! Built by AIFA fans............for AIFA fans. That is the main purpose. To improve our league, with fan ideas. Sure, some teams struggle. But that is where we come in. The league accepted us as The Official Message Board for a reason. They also addressed fan issues(and replied to them) at the owners meeting. Potential teams, league owners, sponsors, and fans read these boards daily. And they don't want to see garbage posts about our league by non supporters. If those individuals want to post it on other message boards. Go right ahead. We will no longer tolerate it here.
Thank You,
