Petition to ban the mlb blackouts - Off-topic

Hello all,
I figured since we are able to use the mlb TV app on our phones, this may be a good place to post this. Thanks for your support and please pass it on to your friends...
I just created a petition: major league baseball and national telecasts: stop the blackouts of games on mlb TV and online, because I care deeply about this very important issue.
I'm trying to collect 100 signatures, and I could really use your help.
To read more about what I'm trying to do and to sign my petition, click here: http://www.change.org/petitions/maj...ames-on-mlb-tv-and-online?share_id=aJnKzsBWqD

Not gonna happen, but cool story.

I remember when I couldn't watch my local hockey team. The internet had to do. THere are hundreds of streaming services.

Yeah I've researched the alternatives.. Stream torrent was one and I think the other was to setup a proxy server in another country... Just wanted to stick it to the man, think I would get more satisfaction out of it...

100 signatures wont change anything. 10000 wont change anything either. I have a good russian site for streaming. they have EVERYTHING. And by everything I mean ever your 5 year old sons little league game.

I know right?
People are always yammering on about economic meltdown and humanitarian atrocities but they forget that somewhere out there, there's a guy who can't watch baseball on his phone.

You know I posted this as far away from everyday typical xda talk, just as a share. Comments like this^^^^^ especially coming from an xda senior moderator and writer really don't help the community, but hey way to represent xda. :thumbup: I am not asking for comments, just trying to help a cause. If you don't like it or don't agree, then there should be no need to post. The world has many problems, some more serious then others but solutions have to start somewhere, maybe even with one person or one idea...

You're the one who just up and left with no rhyme or reason. If you wanted our help you could have at least given us a proper farewell after we've helped you so much.

I was pretty busy with schoolwork. I didn't have time to farewell and I did thank all of you in my other thread.

I read your other thread in the past but never followed along with it. What ended up happening with the girl you met at lunch and wiped a booger on your friend or something
If you dont own a van, I would suggest picking one up and painting "Free Candy" or "Free Kittens/Puppies" on the side...This could be the reason shes not paying you any mind...
What you need to do is first obtain a weapon, an M9 is fine, but a Kalashnikov is the romantic's weapon of choice. Tell me when you get this far and I'll tell you the next step.

Don't listen to him...
Just put on a creepy clown suit, follow her everywhere she goes, and look into the windows of every building she enters. That's how she will know you are a loyal friend.
She will probably give you bonus points if you keep all the hair that she sheds throughout the day in a jar.

XD Lmao, Welcome back Alan I'd think noting of it.. unless she really hates you I gots atleast 20 I haven't got round to accepting
Whoa, epicfail there dude.
1. You should've talked to her when you were in the same class in somewhat professional way.
At least get in the same group if there's any group work.
2. FAILED on the approach dude. You don't shake her hand unless she offers you to.
(That's what I do)

OP Updated

A formal apology

I created this post as a way to extend a formal apology for my attitude here on XDA. I've been a member for several years without a single issue. In recent months, I've been dealing with a great deal of stress in my personal life, which was affecting my overall attitude and the way I was interacting with family, friends, and with people on XDA.
As a result, I recieved a ban on XDA for approx two weeks. I really love XDA, and spend a great deal of my spare time on here helping others in need. (needless to say, I was going crazy without my daily fix of XDA). My long-term goal was to work my way to becoming a MOD, and am hoping my ban didn't jeopordized my chances, and am willing to do whatever it takes. Either way, I would like to say I'm Sorry for the way I conducted myself here on XDA.
I really enjoy XDA, and the community behind it. Collectively, I consider this place as an extended part of my family, and look forward to many years to come. Thank you for taking the time to read this thread.
Sincerely,
Danny W.

It's cool man.All of us here(or most of us anyway) may be smartphone- and tech-loving geeks,but hey,we're still human for Christ's sake.I too have been a prick,I've helped people,I've insulted people and I've had some great laughs around here.So what?That's what a community is for.As long as you don't start saying how your dog ate your paper in a development thread,you should be ok around here.Unless you have some extreme behavior that is...
I don't know you and i don't know the circumstances of the infraction, but i know a sincere apology when i see one, and as said above, everybody screws up and most deserve a second chance.
I hope that the issues you were having have been resolved and i, for my part, wish you all the best!

I was joking around though, just so long as everybody is having fun. Something tells me the mods may have been very serious haha. I can just see one huge OT clusterf*ck thread where nothing makes sense and you have to search for days to find the conversation relative to what you're looking for.
It is interesting to hear what others have on their bucket lists.

@bord1er. I usually wouldn't waste my time with you, but read the op. This post was in no way meant to be political. I was in the marines and spent a good deal of time overseas but this has nothing to do with what one thinks about those events and that should be clear, as someone pretty much already posted. However, you've certainly shown your cards, haven't you.

I'm not American and generally don't care about what happens in America, but regardless, Rest In Peace to all those who lost their lives all those years ago, to all the men and women who have lost their lives fighting the war against terror to keep everyone else safe and my heart and condolences go out to all the families and friends who have been affected by the losses.
Also, don't give that troll the time of day. He's just trying to get a thrill from being an arse and being insensitive.
Don't respond to it because it will just keep bringing attention to it.
I'm sure his comment will be gone soon enough anyway.
