other teams' insane fans to come on TNET and mock and trash Clemson, our program, our great university and Dabo, over and over and over??
I'm all for friendly banter - even respectful critique. There was plenty to critique after Saturday.
That's just sports.
But coming on here, trolling, and being disrespectful with every post seems beyond.
I come on TNET to discuss my team with fans of my team. And have been for 25 years.
Am I missing something?

The more clowns, the more replies, the more replies, the more visits, the more visits, the more views, the more views, the higher the rates for advertising, the higher the rates for advertising the more money it makes for the owner of this domain.

Read more of his post and it becomes even more telling! Smartest guy on TNet. Ask him he will let you know.
I like most people but it’s obvious if you do not agree with certain things then JK’s followers spew “cult.” On another note some feel the need to whine like anyone on here can change anything and then you have those that just pretend to be fans. Picked up a great deal of those after 2015.
Just read enjoy and ignore the BS. It’s hard though most people’s thoughts on here are set on repeat, so some are hard to avoid.

Freedom to do things isn't always a constitutional or legal consideration. Freedom is just a lack of impediments. Freedom to move, freedom to smoke, freedom to do anything.
As a virtue, I like it when freedom of speech is honored by private companies, even though they are legally allowed to limit it any way they want.

It's nearly impossible to ignore you since you post on almost everything. Especially if you can get a jab in.
Tired of you and your ilk.
But you won't go away, of course. You enjoy being a straight-up troll.
So I've ignored you for weeks now, as much as I'm able. Now that your team has won, I was hoping you'd go away.
Don't understand trolling another team's fan base. It's just creepy.

If I get "jabs in" on "almost everything," why don't you share some of those. Exactly what jabs have I taken? You see some of the stuff that gets hurled at me? You worried about those jabs? You reading the stuff about your head coach here? I'm not posting that stuff. You're blinded by "Dawg" profile. Anything I post which isn't in lock step with what you want to hear you label trolling. There is a poster from another fanbase who is very careful not to post anything which anyone here might possibly object to. I post my opinion.

You find other teams' fans negative perception of Clemson objectionable. You want it suppressed and deleted. Pretty clear case.

I think by asking for more censorship you guys just don't like having to see anything deriding Clemson in the message boards unless it's from Clemson fans. And the mods already remove opposing fans (or Clemson fans) if it is overwhelmingly obvious that their primary intent is just to harass people.
They tell us frequently that we have a report abuse button that almost nobody acknowledges.

Sep 5, 2024, 11:26 AM

Step 1: Do you deny the definition of the word "censor" as described by Mirriam Webster? (source link below)
"to examine in order to suppress or delete anything considered objectionable
also : to suppress or delete as objectionable"
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/censor
Assuming you agree with the dictionary, we are good to move forward.
Step 2: Do you agree with yourself that you find posts from opposing fans that you consider insulting to Clemson objectionable? Or do you disagree with yourself?
Assuming you agree with the dictionary and yourself.... we are good to finish up.
Step 3: Do you agree with yourself that you want the above-describe objectionable content "suppressed or deleted?"
If so, then you agree that you want censorship. It is literally logically impossible to deny this. Please be rational.

We don't allow trolling or personal attacks. If you see either of those, just hit the RA flag and we will deal with it. I can assure you we have enough hits where losing 1 person doesn't make any difference, so that is not a factor. To date we have banned 4,033 accounts.
Feel free to PM me if there is someone specific you want me to look into, but generally RA gets the job done.
Thanks!

Generally love it here, obviously. Been on for over 25 years.
I appreciate all y'll do and hope you make a LOT of money from this site.
Just seems like too many jock-sniffing dogs and dirtpeckers these days.

No problem. Granted after losses we kind of let things slide a bit more for a day or so, but we really do try to keep them off. Not many people actually use the RA button, but we appreciate the help!

Sometimes you have to run over roadkill a couple extra times to make sure it’s really dead.

He is a good poster, give him some Jamaica time once a year, but not the Death Penalty. 🥸

It’s the majority spirit of the world we live in now. The news narrative can change on a dime and most will believe it.
