Outside of flushing 95% of the posters I believe the best way to do this is create a board for each SEC school but keeping the SECr main board.

Each poster would have to classify themselves based on what team they pull for and would be restricted to only posting on the SECr main board OR their team's board. As far as policing the team boards, you could apply admin status to a reputable poster of each fan base to police their board but they wouldn't have admin status on any other board but their own teams board.

Thoughts?

ETA: Also keep the main SEC Recruiting board as well. I don't see any problem as far as that board goes.

I nominate myself for Auburn Admin.




Also, this likely won't happen. That's a paysite type thing that you're talking about.


But I still believe an SEC Rant OT would help, as it would be a place for shitty poster's threads to go.

Chicken said on the main TD help board that they were looking into doing individual team pages and that could be something to look forward to in the future. So that's where I was basing my idea.

Just thought it'd be interesting to see everyone's thoughts.

Ban people who do nothing but flame and fish in threads imo

Which would equate to about 90% of these new dadgum Bama posters that suck.

It goes beyond the Bama posters though. Would that help? Yeah but it wouldn't solve the problem.

Maybe football season will do the trick

This. Just take a look at the SEC Rant. The proof is in the posts.

Ehh, I don't know. I think this is going too far.

I've been for this for a while now.

What are these boards on the left for? The ones with each individual team name?

Just if you wanna see threads about each school. All of the threads on the SECr are classified according to what team they are talking about and tagged into that board.

The team pages seem to be more for the lurkers than the active posters.

However, it gives each SEC school it's own handful of topics to choose from that relate to their particular college.

Definitely like that idea. Hell, I'd love to be able to do that job. I'm pretty sick of a lot of the new Bamatrolls.

Don't the Admins become more strict with trolls and flamers once football season begins?

They are always more lenient during the off season. Once the season starts it always gets better.

Nothing actually. This board needs to be disowned from TD. It just brings the level of the site to BOL/Tidefans levels now.

May be time to pull the plug TBH.

Apoligize for dogging you back in the day. You seem to have grown up and become a better poster while I've been away.
