Ways to Fix the CFB Forum

  I agree with that, but there isn't any reason we shouldn't be able to have an LSU (if anyone besides cats even cares), UM, ND, Florida, etc... thread without people jumping in and talking about how much better OSU is. There are definitely trolls both ways.

  the majority will rule obviously, but that doesn't change the fact that some of them are insufferable assholes, lol

  I also agree but you wouldn't expect a fan of another on a board that is dominated by one team to not hear that. Just the way it is. People are going to troll there isn't a way to stop it short of shutting message boards down, hell they'd just find another outlet. Here is a thought though, no one says you have to respond to bullshit. If you don't like something just move on, once you respond to a troll you have opened the door, not anyone else!

  Until people like CGW stop posting uneducated posts (like ones saying LSU is clean: HAAA), then the vitriol will remain. As for the trolling, it's a messaging board, it's going to happen, and I agree the less you feed, the less they troll.
  
  Let's face it, the Big 10 schools and SEC schools HATE each other. But in all reality, there's only 1 record that matters...
  
  North 1
  South 0
  
  And that's why they hate each other. People in the South can't let go of the civil war (not everyone obviously, but enough that it's hilarious).

Add that with ND fans who understand their team is mediocre(I mean its been 20+ years, time to get with the program), Michigan fans to get that they are only relevant once per year when they lose to Ohio State, and Florida fans who can accept that Tebow is gone, and that means Florida is back to being an average football program that no one outside of Florida cares about.
  
  Also, its not trolling if its true, its trollling if its untrue(like 99.999% of all posts made by OSU haters regarding the "serious violations"). Give me a break.

  
  Correct me if im wrong but dont most(if not all??) Notre Dame fans on here admit that they have been pretty average for a while?? Seems like its only you that just pops in threads and throws it at them every chance you get.

  It goes both ways... more from OSU trolls to other fans than from outsiders here. I just put 3 trolls on my ignore list and will try not to stoop to their level as much anymore. They give OSU fans a bad rep. Tigerdroppings and many other boards have fans that do not attack outside team fans for no reason. When they have trolls that constantly stalk, mods do something about it. Here we just have to tolerate it. I'm not complaining, just see how it is.

  Look I may be a mod but I'm grown and have thick skin. A trolling to one is not trolling to another. Also people bitch and complain over the most petty things. This forum isn't going to change. Could "mod" till blue in the face but something else will always be posted that gets under one's skin! I'll disagree about other boards as well and as an OSU fan if I was to venture onto another teams boards I would expect nothing less than getting razzed by other fans! It's the freaking Internet folks, a place where people can be bad asses, stalkers, and assholes!! If you can't handle it, find a message board and talk about Care Bears!!

  No they don't. Every year we have to hear about how great ND is going to be because they are playing a powderpuff schedule with recruits that are only good because of media hype. Then, when the inevitable ND fails and loses their annual bowl game, we hear about how great they are going to be next year. It's a never ending cycle.
  
  Hell, you have ND fans predicting a National Championship this year, and you have their head coach saying they are going to win a BCS bowl. LOL 8-4 is the best they will do this year(only because of a weak schedule) and they will not win their bowl game, BOOK IT.

  What part of changing people's quotes and calling them hillbillies belongs on a college football forum exactly?
• ytownfootball

  

  It humors me till no end the vocal minorities whining about their wishes for a circle jerk and a resounding, manly rendition of "Khum Bah Ya".
  
  Don't expect political correctness on a flippin' message board, this is our escape from all that crap, like it or leave, pretty simple.

  I'm not the one being called a hillbilly. I just think that some of that could be left off of the college football forum. It adds nothing to any conversation and it makes it tough to have any sort of real discussion when you have to wade through all of that bullshit in a thread. It goes both ways, I'm not saying its just one side.

  However you and I both know that won't be the case so just ignore it and post what you have to say and hopefully someone mature enough will respond and talk about what you wanted too. It isn't that hard folks to ignore the bs you don't like!

  speedofsand/cats gone wild/lotz/webfire do half of the trolling when it comes to OSU. So fuck them

  For someone with thick skin you sure quoted and answered me as if I was calling you out as a mod. Not the case. Petty things is constant stalking and idiot remarks that add nothing to the thread, and really are not needed. Did someone call me a hillbilly again?

  No, not today. It was just an example of stuff that adds zero to the CFB forum.
