Wait....maybe I do understand but if I do, we don't have the power to send PMs. Or at least I don't or I don't know that I know....that you know that I know.

I don't post in the rant outside the FB season usually.

What's the background here? Specifics? Is it just that the mods are leaning further toward open support of LSU?

Experiment. We can start small if you prefer. For example, have the Texas State game thread on the Ark only and see what the reaction is from the shitposters who can't comment because they don't have rights to do so.

There has been an influx of sips trolls and posters pretending to be fans of other schools but who are clearly sips. (For example, they parrot shaggy talking points, only post when it's anti-A&M stuff, and know obscure anti-A&M crap that no SEC fan would know.) The mods are just letting it happen, despite the widespread and egregious trolling.

AggyArk = this board.

Try typing AggyArk on texags. It gets filtered.

Idk if I can commit without a hard end date. My staunch reputation for 2.5 rant posts a year has to be upheld.

I already have a method of dealing with the obvious sip trolls:

"Shut the frick up, Randy.". It should have the same feel as that of Walter, from The Big Lebowski, when he says "shut the frick up, Donnie. You're out of your element."

Then, follow that up with a comment about Aggy stealing/banging his wife and raising/beating his kids.

Why aren’t you all making alters and pretending to be dumb sips?

I don't have that many e-mail accounts. All the ones I do have are similar enough to where the mods would immediately smell an alter upon registration.

I don't have any particular desire to generate fake accounts for the purpose of "altering".

Sound ok to me. This past week was a shitshow on the rant. So I am curious if the sip, OU, and other fools would just talk to each other about the Aggies, even if there was no reply from Aggies.

They would

They would still obsess over Aggie even if we weren’t there, nothing would change

Shitposting alters are already bitching about something we haven't even done yet.
