Crump, Suggested rule changes for the board.

Dec 19, 2010, 9:37 AM

This board was a great thing for Tiger fans out of state, like myself, before it was taken over by malcontents, critics, quitters, and coot fans disguised as Tigers. I try to just focus on newspaper articles and similar info on the front page but the pervasive negativism over on the snapshot of posts on the front page often captures my attention. Look back at the people who were regular posters when you began the board and how many have left out of disgust. I would love to see the board delete all such posts. If not, I suggest that posts that strongly criticize players, coaches, recruits, or their families should be subject to some kind of scrutiny before they are allowed to stay on the board. Those posters should have to provide in their background profile information such as the following: did they attend Clemson; did they graduate Clemson; are they an IPTAY member; do they contribute financially to Tigerboard; and other information that would allow some check on their credibility as legitimate Tiger fans whose opinions should matter. I would not object if they were required to provide their name and address. I know you can be a semi-fan and fail the above checks, but such fans don't deserve to be provided a forum for their venom. It is impossible to tell if these losers are ignorant or immature Tiger fans or if they are simply using this forum as a means to try to destroy Clemson football, undermine our players, coaches, and hurt recruiting. Crump, some of the above is impractical but please do something!! I realize you can't spend all your time monitoring the board. Could you allow 10 (or some number) of thumbs dowm votes to delete a post? I'm sure you won't have any trouble getting ten thumbs dowm votes on this post.

making a separate board for folks with a sub-50% approval rating. That would keep basically everyone you alluded to off the main board.

Logging on to TIGERnet and having to sift through all the same nonsense everyday is beyond old.

It would move the guys, whose sole mission in life is to whine, gripe, and antagonize, out of harm's way.

They would be free to gripe, whine and antagonize (amongst themselves) all day long without effecting the content of the main board, which is supposed to be for "ALL Tigers, ALL the time". And since the mods seem gullible to low-IQ posers like "tigerfanjack", it would also help with that.

To the mods: You guys have been hearing this same basic request for a long time. I'm not sure why you haven't acknowledged it, but I will personally donate at the highest level TODAY if you make this reasonable change. I imagine there are several posters that would follow suit.

Thanks,
Stan
