Way too many Tiger haters and trolls on this board!
If we had more fans like we had when the board was first started it would be a pleasure to discuss Tiger sports. Somehow, the administrators allow too many to consistently and without a rational basis, talk about our school, our coaches and our players in vitriolic language.

Age, maturity and the "gotta have it now" syndrome...

And the 'Blog' mentality - hell, everyone blogs nowadays. Really stupid idiots just use message boards instead.

I haven't seen many posters that genuinely hate the Tigers. Just those that genuinely hate to lose.

RE: Way too many Tiger haters and trolls on this board!
I love the Tigers. I hate when our overall rankings look like this:

2012-13 OVERALL RANKINGS
POINTS PER GAME
67.6 194th OVERALL
REBOUNDS PER GAME
35.4 174th OVERALL
ASSISTS PER GAME
11.2 266th OVERALL
FIELD GOAL PCT
.446 127th OVERALL

I can't remember the last time they all looked like that. Tonight's game was fun and a win -- take it for what it is -- but we have a lot to work on. Hopefully, this was a first step.

Bad opponent, but great effort by us. That's the effort we were expecting.

Based on those stats, we suck. But, they are stats. Even if we had won Minnesota or VCU games, our stats wouldn't look that much better except for the wins and losses. Plus the stats in terms of comparison are ridiculous without considering who teams have played thus far in freaking November. Right now, Duke looks like a juggernaut. They always do in November because Coach K is a great coach. Teams that are underperforming now will catch up. Injuries also change things as well. I am disappointed in our results at this point but we can get better if Pastner gets it together and the players start playing as a team with a chip on their shoulder.

I feel as though I'm way to tall to be a troll.

You're right --- it's about the effort. And we had that tonight. Don't give a damn who we're playing.

True ---- but I think people who come to the board enough are slowly learning. Just ignore the trolls. 'Attention' is their food.

Maybe so. You can tell if a person generally supports the tigers, or he/she is here just to bad mouth everything they do. Shouldn't the moderator or whoever keeps up with all the message board, sort of determine if they are a real fan or just somebody trying to get everybody riled up?

no....you can trash the program, trash the coach, trash individual players, and trash effort. You can also have aliases out the ying-yang and it's ok.

Our messageboards have been infested with trolls, numbskulls, gutless wussies and clowns for over 12 years. I put the worst of them on ignore.

What's embrassing is that the VCU fans said the same thing about this board before the game was played.

I don't have anyone on ignore and I don't see all of the "tiger haters" and "trolls" that you guys do.

I do agree that aliases should be banned, but as a mod and developer on other boards I know firsthand just how difficult that can be.
