I just posted a “Long Live George” thread and it got removed immediately. LOL
I'm pretty sure they want troll garbage there. It drives up the numbers. People have requested ignore buttons for years and there's been absolutely no talk of it, not even, we'll see or something to that effect.TN Tide Fan wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2024 1:55 pm I kind of surprised by that. I was actually just posting in the thread on the Rant that no way they would run off one of the few posters who brings great non-troll information to the Rant. Good riddance to that cesspool
I used to laugh at the notion that some of those trolls were plants, but at this point I'm not sure if it's partly orchestrated or just allowed to organically fester on purpose. Either way, it's the way it is because the people in charge want it to be that way. And that's fine, but there are some of us who really don't enjoy that type of stuff.theballguy wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2024 2:00 pmI'm pretty sure they want troll garbage there. It drives up the numbers.

I've been told by a certain admin who isn't on that site anymore that they have for fact done that since the beginning. I have no doubts. Damn shame. I hadn't posted for a LONG time and only gotten back to being on there. I think I'll be back to posting way less.SummerOfGeorge wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2024 2:02 pmI used to laugh at the notion that some of those trolls were plants, but at this point I'm not sure if it's partly orchestrated or just allowed to organically fester on purpose.

To be fair though, it is a FOR PROFIT site, so that's to be expected.
Honestly, I don't have much desire to post over there. I didn't even for the past year or so, I just did it out of bad habit (and too often).
