re: Jumpstart

Hold your breath and eventually I'll apologize. You'll probably be cyanotic from associated anoxia but still.

I didn't think it was that serious. I thought on the sc board it was like being family where we could talk smack with each other but on the rant we back each other up. Well at least that's how I do it ( ok so I haven't always backed IBG but I'm sure you can understand). I've had everyone talking crap and putting me down even before I signed up on here and you haven't seen me crying foul. I thought this was the famous Rant where it was no holds barred and let off steam now I'm hearing we need to hold hands and sing " We are family". I'm utterly confused.

That wasn't necessarily directed at you. Just so happened to click your post in my reply.

Perhaps I am wrong and just reading to the tone of some of the posts on this board, but it just feels like the shite that usually stays on the SEC-R has started to drizzle on this board.

Again, that's not directly pointed at you SOS. I just mean in general.

Maybe I'm wrong.

It wasn't meant for me but you singled my name out...nice.

I used you as a new guy and put in an older poster as well and then edited to include myself because I've personally been short-tempered with other posters.

I used your name and the others as a way to say there has been a lot of spat between you and some of the older posters. But some of the older posters have been at it with each other as well and I'm not sure what's caused it all.

Again, maybe I'm just reading the tone between the posts wrong and it's all just back and forth sarcastic banter. Or maybe some are serious. Or maybe it's a mix of both and it's hard to tell.

All I'm gettin' at is that the base as a whole on this board has at least seemed to be more combative with each other than normal.

I actually agree with you. Even though 87.8% of your post to me are putting me down it's still fun to me. Keep in mind us new posters are not used to those trolling threads, I know I've been suckered into a few of them. It takes new posters awhile to understand the sanity of the insane.

I enjoy it here it’s fun. Enjoy the back and forth. Was just telling jump start than when we make those threads they are meant to piss people off. Besides it’s Tennessee they went 0-8 last year. Just wanted to get him on the same page as the fellow gamecocks.

Well that went south fast...lol...The "Carolina Girl" really gets bent out of shape. She's going to have a stroke if she doesn't calm down...lol...It was fun to engage you guys but it's back to reality. I don't think I have ever seen people get so upset about things they have no control over or doesn't effect their daily lives in anyway. I would hate to see Carolina Girl with a real problem...You need some serious help if a message board sets you off that bad. Hold down the fort girl. I shall return !

The biggest issue with electronic communication is that it is normally void of emotion.

It's void of facial expression and voice inflection.

I said that in a Bob Gillespie article he did on me almost twenty years ago.

It still holds true today.

if you don't care how stupid you look and the fact that everyone on rant takes it all Gamecock fans are that stupid

No one thinks that baw..especially just from a message board.
all of our fan bases are generally the same, other than Vandy.

That said.. if history does matter we might as well pack it in and not talk shite towards anyone. I mean we are pretty fricking bad.

Well you’re right. I quit. Then again Georgia did break me

I hear Gorilla Glue is even better.
