No big deal Jek.  We know you are a good guy and were just trying to help out the people that missed the chat.

You are right.  We did not always have the rule.  The reason we have it is that sometimes in one of our chats, a guest might mention something that they later wish they hadn't.  Some tidbits might embarrass people that shouldn't be embarrassed, reveal sensitive info that shouldn't be posted on a public message board, etc.

It isn't that big of a deal when this happens if the transcript is not posted anywhere.  It can be if it is.

Understand, we don't pay people to stop by as guests.  They do it out of the goodness of their hearts, their love for the sports they cover and the enjoyment they get from talking about these sports with people with a similar passion.

Having a policy that the transcript will not be posted protects the guests from possible problems.  This encourages them to stop by for chats.  Our top priority is to provide great content on the board, even if sometimes it is not available to people indefinitely in the form of posts.

I am genuinely sorry we can't share the transcript with the people that miss the chats.  But we have to protect our guests and ensure that their willingness to do a good deed for the fanbase does not end up hurting them.

I hope you and everyone else understands where we are coming from.
