I get it that they don't want you to troll TD ... that's totally fair and I completely support that.EarlyCuyler3 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 23, 2024 1:49 am When they decided to let William run wild with absolutely no consequences, that's when things really took a dive IMO.

Made a promise that I'd pron bomb if we lost to A&M. Stuck with it.SummerOfGeorge wrote: ↑Fri Feb 23, 2024 8:21 am Busey! Long time no see man. What did you get banned for back then?
WT21 is a product of the combination of the culture there and a couple of schtick missteps along the way, IMHO. I think he’s a pretty smart dude, fully capable of having a serious conversation. Just not sure he’s willing to do it with his WT21 handle.EarlyCuyler3 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 23, 2024 1:49 am When they decided to let William run wild with absolutely no consequences, that's when things really took a dive IMO.

Yeah, the Rant changed during the 2018-2019 offseason. Prior to that, what trolling there was was (mostly) good-natured and intended to be funny, and was generally kept to troll-specific threads. But after WT21 spent that entire spring and summer posting nonstop Bama trolls in every thread and generally doing the best he could to ruin the board, it has been a completely different place.Tuscaloosa wrote: ↑Fri Feb 23, 2024 8:55 amWT21 is a product of the combination of the culture there and a couple of schtick missteps along the way, IMHO.

He was funny after that 2019 season for a little bit but he just couldn't quit attention whoring. He's creative but 5 levels below LSUFreek.DefinitelyNotTTMR wrote: ↑Fri Feb 23, 2024 9:38 am But after WT21 spent that entire spring and summer posting nonstop Bama trolls in every thread and generally doing the best he could to ruin the board, it has been a completely different place.
We all enjoy the "fun" trolling to an extent or we wouldn’t be there. It just gets to be too overwhelming when left unchecked and filters out any reasonable conversation. In moderation it’s fine IMO, but like with anything there’s a limit.Tuscaloosa wrote: ↑Fri Feb 23, 2024 8:55 am WT21 is a product of the combination of the culture there and a couple of schtick missteps along the way, IMHO.

LSUFreek was good-natured in his trolling. He was aiming to make everyone laugh, and he even poked fun at LSU when the situation warranted. WT21 can be funny but he's too mean-spirited about it to ever reach Freek's level.theballguy wrote: ↑Fri Feb 23, 2024 9:43 amHe was funny after that 2019 season for a little bit but he just couldn't quit attention whoring.
