Forums/social media serve as surveys/promoting/anti-piracy, etc.. internet paid posters are all over Sherdog, even Sherdog.com has created rules on criticizing ufc/dana,etc.. i.e PrideFC bash thread can stay for months but as soon you post a Dana bash within 30mins = BAN.
FYI for other readers here on Jerry Millen, he was seen taking lots of pictures lately with sakakibara/fedor in the bellator cage.
