For the most part this board is pretty fair. Could be worse, this could be run like shaggybevo - where the team sucks and our Texas economy is close to follow. Makes for entertaining (in a crude kind of way) conversation.
I recognize your name from HuskerMax.com. I've lurked there off and on for over a decade now. That said, while I recognize your name, I really don't know much about any individual posters, including you.Greatest Fan of All said:
My best advice to you would be to be careful of how you put your opinions across. Like I said in another thread about a banned poster, many times its not what you say, but how you say it. I've struggled with this from time to time in my life and I know others have as well. I always try to avoid attacking someone personally and instead try to discuss their opinions in a rational manner.

You know.....you can always just BE YOURSELF.
Say your piece.
Discuss others viewpoints and be honest without making/taking everything personal.
It is after all, just an Internet message board.
Much like life, there's going to be people who like you and don't like you. People who agree and disagree. Its when people can't handle a disagreement like a big boy is usually when problems arise. Most people understand that not everyone will see eye to eye on everything, and THAT'S OKAY.
My other recommendation is don't ask questions. For some reason asking questions about someone else's viewpoint seems to really piss them off. (especially questions about Tim Beck)

Could you provide some examples of people that have been suspended or banned for nothing more than offering an unpopular opinion?

You think it's that simple?

It seems pretty simple. OP is wondering whether he can post opinions without running afoul of ban-happy mods. Dagerow says no. I'm just asking for some examples to support that claim. There's been plenty jackasses that have been banned from this forum, but as I said on the first page, those bans have been due to those users' dicketry, not their opinions.

Since the Mods or Admin won't tell anyone why someone was banned, I fail to see how anyone can show you the example you are asking for. In addition, your opinion of dickery is, well, like your opinion, man.

Sorry. That was meant as a joke. My bad. Of course, everyone is entitled to post their opinion absence insults of other posters. Indeed, in my experience, huskerboard is the most "open" forum, but I like it because of the humor. What can I say, gifs crack me up.
