LSU Fan Filter (LFF)- the proven tactic of writing posts only in large paragraphs at a 10th grade reading level or higher with a ton of words. I am talking a big fat wall of text that explains your position like an AP writing test. If you want good conversation on the Rant it has to start with you, and that means your early posts or OP in a thread better be using this unless otherwise noted. The TRHs go tldr and you get conversation.
I would say this works pretty well for most of the fans on tRant. The initial words will usually run off the trolls and you get a good discussion from those who remain. The downside is in the under 30 crowd once you get past a line or two their ADD takes over and they are lost, which is to bad.

Yup. It is sometimes less the words than the formatting. Many of these people have never read a book, their literacy is online literacy. You put like five sentences in a paragraph and suddenly their brain turns off.

Depends on the fanbase I have found. Mizzou fans, Vandy or Georgia fans have followed me word for word. It is mostly a problem only with SEC West teams. Arky fans will read a paragraph though, they are the exception.
