No, they deliberately ignore RAs from A&M posters. The only exception is Lew, who cleaned up the Recruiting board. Of course Lew, being a Georgia Bulldog, is sick of corndogs shitting up the recruiting board as well.

While SCRooster's comment is what should happen:

Honestly, best thing to do is just hope Lew, Chicken and Ice apply heat to the interlopers. And that’s what they are in the purest psychological sense of the word ... they are insecure interlopers.


It's well-known that Ice is the mod that is not only protecting the shitposters, but owns at least a few of the alters himself. That's why you never see him post.

....so instead of just ignoring the pathetic 'sips and letting them continue to prove that they're a bunch of turds to everyone else, the plan is to run away?

That’s the thing; many Ags don’t ignore ‘em.
But whatever.
I guess some people like to mix it up with those malcontents.
And who am I to say they shouldn’t?

All I know is it’s made the opportunity for conversation all but impossible.

I was right to say hell no to this. It is cowardice and quite literally taking your ball and going home when things don’t go your way.

No one is melting. They are laughing and rightly so. You have taken a smack talk board too seriously and let it get to you.

Y’all do whatever but I’m going to hang around, talk football smack, laugh, and enjoy tRant for what it is.


100%.

The LSU/Texas fans just won. They trolled yall off their board. This is pathetic.

How? You claim you ignore them and tell othes to do the same but somehow it's still impossible to have a conversation?

When notable trolls and alters have 7 out of every 10 posts on every thread that might even be tangentially related to A&M, it makes it difficult.

Also, no one is on strike or boycotting anything:

A boycott is a refusal to use a service or purchase a good. There are no purchases involved and we are still posting on every other board on the forum.

A strike is a conditions-based effort that ends when those conditions are met. There are no conditions for ending this early. It starts at a certain time and ends at a certain time.

The fact that there are SIX threads about this on the front page of the Rant, two of them with over 100 replies, should tell you something about the mental state of certain individuals.

Maybe some of yall haven't realized this so let me help you.

Real sports talk happens mostly on the MSB. tRant is a thunderdome for trolls and we used to run that shite.

It hasn't had good sports conversation in the 8 years I've been posting here.

All that tells me is that they find this boycott hilarious and now have even more ammo to throw in our faces when yall do start posting again.

I’ve done nothing of the sort.
I’ve said it’d be great if that happened, but that it’s not my place to tell others how to post.

Arguing with sips and the LSU boys who support them on a message board is akin to debating politics on social media.
No one’s mind will ever be changed, and everyone else is left wading through the resulting poop.

Sorry, misunderstood one of your posts from above.

Boycott: An act of voluntary and intentional abstention from using, buying, or dealing with a person, organization, or country as an expression of protest, usually for moral, social, political, or environmental reasons. The purpose of a boycott is to inflict some economic loss on the target, or to indicate a moral outrage, to try to compel the target to alter an objectionable behavior.

None of the bold portions apply...at least not for me. If others are using this as a boycott, that's their choice.

Retreat: withdraw from enemy forces as a result of their superior power or after a defeat.

Surrender: cease resistance to an enemy or opponent and submit to their authority.

Pussies: tAggyArk


Maybe these words work better?

Look, if you don't want to participate, don't.

If you're going to be a butthurt bitch about it, just sport the purple and gold and make it official.

Also, the phrase you're looking for is "tactical pause".

Not mad at all. Those who don't want to participate aren't participating.

This post and the one following it are just to ensure that this thread doesn't remain at the number of posts equal to shitty class years '98 and '99.
