Ban Trd?

[Darth Biscuit]

I see that my "ignore them" advice was completely ignored...

This thread is a trolls wet dream... great job.

I dont think he should be banned...and here is why (not that anyone cares what I think...but still)

People complain that he derails threads, but what really derails threads are the replies to his posts. If the same people already believe that he is a troll, why do they fall into the perceived trap of replying, and continue the nonsensical banter?

If anyone derails threads, it would be the people who let their own ego get the better of them and argue with the guy about whatever he (or some of the other trolls) might say.

As was mentioned this is the largest forum for Panthers discussion on the net, and yet although many would like to believe it is a place where football discussion can happen, more often than not most of the conversation here leaves logic and discussion behind for quippy one liner, herp durp, say wut type middle school antics or otherwise simply posting of obnoxious pictures as a reply to something that although may not have been the most well-informed statement or a differing opinion, was an attempt to discuss some given topic.

Trolls are only a problem if others get wrapped up in their web..but more than trolls, the larger threat to REAL discussion is the immaturity level, and its at the point where many folks seem to view the forum as more like their mothers basement where beavis and butthead type exchanges are posted and actually acceptable rather than a discussion forum for the team most of us love.

Go Panthers~~

This place is all kinds of fuged up.

Honestly I would rather ban Grits aka PopCornPopper, TRD is sometimes annoying but he usually can at least make a factual point, Grits on the other hand.....

[g5jamz]

Wow buncha grown men acting like.6 year olds.Crying to zodalmighty about banning someone. LOL

Look at thread creator. This thread is an embarrassment to Carolina Panthers football discussion.

Was thoroughly entertaining.

we need huddler ID to help prevent illegals from posting.

TRD is a better poster than 90% of this board. Don't believe me just look at how long this thread is.

Everyone just hates him because he is better at trolling than they are, because lets be honest, half of you guys troll the poo out of TRD but get pissed because he usually gets the better of you.

[teeray]

It is also funny that in a thread about banning someone for doing nothing more than hating on Cam Newton it seems that we have 3 guys threatening to kill or arrest one another with no reprimand. :lol:

I think the only troll that should be left is Fiz. I really dislike Grits way more than TRD but rather see them both take a break.
