Can Someone Please Explain The Need For These

Pathetic UGA posters coming to TNET and marching like a herd of Rainbow Flag Waving activists screaming about Kirby and UGA? I never in my life have had the urge to go to another program's chat board and spew propaganda like a masturbatory monkey at the zoo.
Are they loney, sad, lost, deluded or do they really think as their betters we at TNET will accept them as something less than more than the SEC lowlife they are. bretfsu® knows how to co-exist and thrive here.

You never have, but I guarantee you there were some Clemson fans going over to their board during 2015-2020.
Have to be able to take what we dish. Even if it’s not you. But yes, your activist analogy is accurate.

It's acceptance we're looking for. You've cracked the caper.

Is “caper cracking” a euphemism?

No need to bring that stuff here.

Fist of all, it is easy for me here. It took several months, as I anticipated, for the majority of the board to become convinced that I wasn't a troll who was on here to gloat about FSU and berate Clemson. But, once y'all understood I'm a fan who likes FSU but has tremendous respect for Clemson as a University and Dabo, specifically, as a coach I was accepted and welcomed very graciously. (If Clemson had Jimbo or Kirby as a coach you wouldn't see me hanging around here nearly as much.)
Now for advice, here is the way I have learned to coexist with trolls.
1. Generally ignore them.
2. On those few occasions when you think they are trying to have a reasonable conversation, engage with them. As soon as it turns into a troll thread, ignore it.

Bret, you seem to suggest posters from other fan bases don't respect Clemson or Dabo. That's simply not true. Other posters just aren't going to walk on eggshells (so to speak) as to avoid saying something someone might not agree with.
I don't make any of this personal. I don't call people names. But I'm also not going to parrot what I think people want to hear. If that means someone doesn't like me, I probably won't lose any sleep.

My guess is they are not relevant on the leg humper board so they come over here.

Guess some of us just don't understand a fan of another school/fan base monitoring and commenting on another school's post site--particularly if they think we require them to walk on eggs shells when making comments. If you're not one of us, why bother to monitor & post any comment?
Now, bretfsu® on the other hand, I consider him one of us even if he is a FSU fan. He's stated frequently why he monitors & comments on our post site. He highly respects Clemson football, our values, and Dabo Swinney. I value his comments and his opinion. And I don't think he's considered "walking on eggshells" a concern when he makes a comment.
Don't know you well enough to consider you friend or foe except for this particular post that I happened to read. Based on it alone, doesn't sound like you're one of us as a Clemson fan or regarding our Clemson values/philosophies. Therefore, why clutter our post site?
