From what I read, the answer is yes. She is collecting rent from tFlagshippers now.

Maybe we pushed 'em too hard right out of the gate

In fairness, though, their laughing incredulity when the scuttlebutt first broke that Chavis might leave them for us made it so you had to know they had it coming, right?

I avoid watching Women's Basketball. Does that mean I take it seriously?

K you don't take it seriously

But you still make of it what you want, and you obviously don't make it enjoyable for yourself. Which I'm guessing that's probably because you don't care to make it enjoyable since you don't take it seriously. And yet here you are complaining about the rant that you don't care about

Honestly, I blame 90% of the bullshite on tFlagship. 5% on tFaggies, 2% on tDecline, 2% tGumps, and 1% on tSerraneax

I wish the mods would squash the shite out of the religion and race trolling over here. That gets out of hand as well.


Yeah, but compared to the rest of the board (ahem, poliboard, ahem), the mostly tongue-in-cheek threads on this board remain pretty civil. Much moreso than any board I've ever been on.

I heartily agree

Care =/= take seriously. I've seen tRant in good quality before. I wouldn't mind seeing it return to such status.

What I have made of it is that it is poor quality trolling. Not much more to add.

Yea I'm gonna have to disagree with you. If you care about something then you take it seriously to a certain extent. Even if that extent is very small.

Gotcha. You want to be lazy and have others entertain you. Not take it upon yourself to do something about it.

A whole lot of assumption about my character in one statement.
I've seen threads that attempt to have good discussion. Nearly 100% of the time, they devolve quickly into troll-fests, and you tend to contribute to the cesspool it is. So carry on with your trolling since it entertains you so much. I'll wait and see if the admins start to care again.

I'm new here and find the tRant the lowest common denominator when it comes to sports in general, more like a third grade playroom.

It's the wallmart of the boards offered in here.

Yeah, that's exactly what I mean. I mean, a decently subtle troll could get even the targets to be like "damn, good point," or at least get some genuine laughs.

Idk wtf is going on out there these days. No rhyme or reason to it anymore.


Check in threads, proclaiming tGOAT, stating the obvious...

Very little quality trolling.

That's what I like about this board. For the most part, everyone here seems like good people.

Have to agree. tRant was a nice place to be until they won 2 SEC games. I blame Ole Miss in part for their resurgence. Now it's like walking into what used to be your favorite restaurant and being told all it serves is 2 day old shite sandwiches. And here they are... in this thread... ruining it.

Yeah, and it doesn't have to be. That's the irritating part. A lot of posts are intended to inflame, but more aren't and might actually be good threads. Past the first page, though, everything is guaranteed to devolve into a shitstorm. Hate it. Moderators could drop the ban hammer much more frequently and it would be fine with me, realizing that a few A&M brethren would be some of the first to go. I'm tired of that shite.

I think it's gotten to the point where people troll and muck up the board just because they can get away with it. We'd lose a lot of folks if they tightened it up, but it'd establish a new norm.

Then again, maybe it was all a devious plan by Chicken to make the team boards a necessity for actual conversation.
