Meh.

While I don't necessarily agree with the type of rhetoric that CarolinaGirl and scrooster routinely implement I find it refreshing that there is a place for it to exist.

I mean I'm permabanned on a team-specific board for saying I'd rather see Pharoh Cooper taking all the snaps at QB than Dylan Thompson.

And while I think everyone is entitled to post their opinion, it would be nice if fellow USC posters didn't call each other out tRant. We don't have a lot of posters. If you don't agree with something you see a fellow USC member post you could at least keep the criticism to their opinion, not their rhetoric.

But I don't think gamecock22's access to this board should be up for debate. It'd be pretty hypocritical to revoke his access to this board while saying he should only call out USC posters on this board.

I don't think anyone wants him gone. Well, CG and Scrooster might but they haven't even tried that angle.

We aren't kicking off one of our own, especially for something as trivial as this. I probably should have stayed out of it and it would have blown over much quicker, but I just can't resist

I don't think anyone is saying that ... not me, and not CG although I don't speak for her.

I'm just going to avoid him, but that's just me.

I'm probably going to give a lot of second thought to putting out any inside information for awhile though ... not that big of a deal really. I just know for a fact that someone is taking stuff off of here and taking it back to other boards and then some of it goes back to the old Board Wars thing where there are jealous people ... nevermind, you know, it's always going to be the same way on the boards. It's just human nature I guess.

But honestly, I agree with you about everything else.

One thing this has done is open my eyes to me being viewed as an a-hole ... and I'm really not, but meh, whatever. I thought some of it was funny ... consistent if nothing else, especially when it came to the taterheads. I was just having some fun. Loved hanging around with some fellow Gamecock fans, y'all made me laugh, appreciated being able to take it a little further on the SECr. Was happy to be a part of seeing this Gamecock board become more active and in line with the other boards.

Probably about to become a bit more of a lurker than a poster ... well, more of an occasional poster rather than sitting down in front of this thing when I am working and then flipping over to these boards far too often. Hell, when I'm traveling or sitting in front of the TV or whatever I've got my phone or tablet in my hand too often ... it's overload I think. Too much reacting to the trolling, probably lost my patience a few too many times.

I apologize.
