Sounds pretty awful. Why are you upset about it? Good riddance if you ask me.

The Tiger rant sets the standard for how a fan board should be. They let it all hang out over there and it's some of the best reading on this entire site.


I actually agree with this. It creates a culture of self moderation. If someone says something retarded, the proper response - which is merciless ridicule - is allowed. When people know they’ll be mercilessly ridiculed for posting stupid shite, it changes the way they post.

Of course, there are some outliers like NFLSU and TutHillTiger.

I use to post on TF a lot but that was years and years ago. I remember a moderator named Valujet was a cool dude, but there was another one named It’s On a Slab, and he was a total, liberal prick.
Over the years, the site got worse and worse, and I only log on now to read JessN’s analyses.

You’re not a bama fan online unless you’ve joined tidefans and been banned.

My badge of honor is I managed to get banned for saying Kamala Harris was a bad VP selection. Spent a lot of time there but they did not care for criticizing the Biden campaign from the left. Politics board here is a superfund site but I could repost the communist manifesto on it and just get downvoted into oblivion not banned.

I just accidentally deleted my whole frickin' post.

Yes, the Tiger rant is the best board in all of college fandom.

That site is filled with sunshine fairies and they control things. They do not allow legit talk there unless it agrees with their narrative.

Sounds like it's a board ran by some friends that only want to listen to people that agree with them.

I use to go there but was banned. I had posted something mundane no cuss words, etc. Left after I had posted to go do something.

Went back months later and saw they had sent me a message saying that they had warned me and were suspending me. By the time I had came back I was no longer suspended. I had no idea what they were talking about so I messaged HSV. He was ugly in his reply but had no idea why I was banned either. Pretty much was well you were banned so I know you did something wrong.

Meh who cares what they do or think.

Yes its a small number. They kick out people or bash them till they leave. It reminds me of a small church with a "us four and no more" mentality.
