B-Meist Made Changes, Lets See YOU Make Changes
Aug 12, 2009, 5:06 PM
|
|
In honor of B-Meist's changes to the board today (which have been an option for years, but most people were just to lazy to look) I think that we, the members of TigerNet should make some changes ourselves.
The following are some of the things that can really stink up TigerNet and should be stopped immediately:
1. Stop using "clever" words in proper nouns.
Ex. Korncoot
We get it, you think Kornblut has a preferential writing subject directed towards SCar. I agree this may be true, however, you are not funny, clever, or cute by inserting the word "coot" into his name. FGF looks foolish when they use words like "Tammy" or "Clemsux" and yet we do the same thing.
2. Stop posting links or making references to FGF articles
TigerNet is a CLEMSON TIGERS discussion board. I am well aware that SCar is our rival, but honestly, every time someone makes a post over on FGF we do not need one here titled "Look what those dumb coots are saying over on FGF". If we wanted to know, we'd go to FGF.
3. Stop creating new threads with only a subject that means NOTHING
EX. http://tigernet.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=715401&tstart=90
WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN? If you want to say something obscure that probably references another thread, say it in the original thread. Don't make a one line vague thread that doesn't mean anything to anyone.
4. On gameday, we do not need a play-by-play
Ex. new thread with the title "GREAT CATCH FORD!" or "TD TIGERS! WHAT A CATCH!".
We're all excited. But when a great play happens there shouldn't be a race to see who gets their excitement expressed in thread form first. That is what the chat room is for.
I love TigerNet, but these are the types of posts that can really stink it up sometimes.

I think it's hilarious when the SC fans call Bowden "Tammy."***

as much as they deserve it...and as funny as it was when it started, the constant use of the word "Coot", regardless, is annoying. Maybe it's just my opinion, but it has gotten extremely tired as of late...

you are the only person that can get away with calling me that. but if you are observant, you notice that nobody outside of T-Net world uses that term...and looks at you like you're crazy if you ever do. I don't want to get so stuck in Internet Forum land that I loose touch with reality. The reality is, that the word "coot", sounds pretty stupid from the outside looking in...

i find it hilarious inside of this forum...but outside, no one knows the meaning, and so I find it best not to incorporate it into my vocabulary. that's just me though...

Not everyone hangs out in T-Chat. I think it's good to see everyone express some positive gameday emotion on the main board and I encourage everyone to keep doing it. The origin and lifeblood of TNET is and always has been the main board and I think B-meist would disagree with you on this.

what he is, and we can't post remarks about games in progress, and we can only talk about CU, this is going to be one boring board. No pun intended!

Honestly, the others suggestions are bad enough, but you really think it inappropriate to discuss what is going on in a game? Honestly?
I'm truly interested in your logic behind deciding that someone commenting on a play in a game (or, heaven forbid, someone doing play by play) is a bad thing.
