Wanna bet, bro?

ETA: You act like being banned is a terrible thing. I've never been banned for trolling or flaming another fanbase. Everything that has caused my bannings has related to things of OT substance.

Fair enough. I always thought he was a bit of a homer and could give fans a hard time but I wouldn't say he flames.


I'll take him off my list for you SandyMan

I really don't understand why this is needed. You have the sec rant and the recruiting boards to mingle. That's two boards, so why even have this one, if you're going to do this.

Some of us (like myself,Ellitoretc) only post here, because we don't care for the back & forth.

Also, not that some care....I bet some AU fans might leave all together.

There's two people pushing this. One has been here for a year, the other will be banned by October. Just pointing out facts.


I've been around since 2010 just never posted. I didn't create an account until I had stuff to contribute.
Either way, I created my account 1.5 years ago. Get it right

Honestly, I think most of the Bama fans will stay off our board and there won't be back and forth. Most days, they don't have stuff to talk about with us. The only times I see them being on here is if they want to ask us a question and or they have something to contribute


We aren't interesting enough for nonAU fans for people to lurk

I am glad some of you have developed friendships with bama fans on the other boards but I don't care. They may be your buddies but they don't belong here.

Point being, you haven't been here long enough to understand why this board was created.

They aren't my buddies, they are people with information that would be nice to have. Just like if we added an additional Auburn fan that had recruiting information and provided it.

This is purely to experiment with benefiting the board by giving more info from a perspective we don't hear.

I do not want to "hang out" / talk with Bama fans. I usually stay off the rant/Recruiting boards for that reason

The problem is some of those you suggested and like 80% of the ones TT suggested have been straight up flamers in the past on a regular basis.
This. They might be behaving well right now but things always change for the worse once the season starts.
quote:

And personally that's what the SEC recruiting board is for. You can just ignore the stupid MSU/Tenn/Arky posters and pay attention to what guys like Magilla say over there, no real reason to have them post the same stuff here IMO.
And this. Saying that "some posters don't post on the SECRb" isn't really a valid arguement since that list of posters to be added here post on the SECRb anyway. If someone wants a Bama perspective on a certain recruit, go to their recruiting thread and look for info.
quote:

Though that being said, I wouldn't have huge issues with guys like Magilla, Robot Santa, and perhaps NATidefan posting over here, as all three are solid posters that are pretty level headed.

I would be okay with these posters.
quote:

I can also think of a number of AU posters on here that would start flaming the guys we let in simply because they have a script "A" by their name.
This would definitely happen, especially if our season is rougher than expected.

Agree, aubie.

I gave my opinion, so whatever happens, happens. I still got the Fark board.

Some of us think the SECr is absolute trash and should be avoided at all costs.

I was here from before team boards and thought they were one of the best parts of this. I remember when we had to sit in the recruiting board to talk AU because we didn't want to be flamed. I remember before the SECr even started. So stop playing that "you weren't here long enough" bullshite


You would be naive to say that team boards were created due to EVERY other team's posters. If that was the case, there would be a strict no admission policy to any other fan base. Yet we have people from other fan bases on this board and nearly every other board does.

To argue that there are not quality ALabama posters who can restrain themselves from flaming and be contributors like most of the regular posters ont his board is absurd.


I would say that a number of the guys I suggested would be higher quality posters than myself

Your arguments are invalid. You want us to change simply because you are too lazy to seek out the info you want. I could not care less about any Bama fan's opinion on recruiting or football. If you want these opinions, you go search for them.

I would be more in favor of "rivalry boards"

ex: AU/AL board, all posters from each fanbase can post there and that's it

Yeah, no. You should follow theirs posts more closely and you'd notice that they are definitely some of the best Alabama posters on board. They're pretty good to be from any fanbase. And I follow the board a ton, which is sad, but I would know better than almost anyone.


I follow their posts just fine. I mean seriously TT, thesystem, capstone, these guys have been major flamers since I've been on the board before the 2010 season. Trey as well. And most importantly, they don't bring any insight into anything for Auburn.

Magilla on the other hand definitely would, he's a great poster and fairly unbiased.

And having a bazillion posts in these threads doesn't make your opinion more valid than anyone elses, it just means you have a big mouth in message board terms.

We all spend a crapload of time on these boards, whether it's folks who have lots of useful info like Ellitor, Gene, KK, AM, or Jonesy, or mostly lurkers like myself.

We would all be effected equally. And the huge issue you are going to have is as soon as these posters get on this board bickering will happen between them and folks that can't handle non-Auburn viewpoints.

Hell, the recruiting thread is bad enough when Brannigan goes all negabarner, imagine how off topic it will get with back and forth with bama fans.
