--------------------------------------

Sharing Trolls Counts as Trolling: Sometimes desperately lazy outlets hire trolls, or trolls who are good at social media build enough of a following, that they become a headache for us, spreading hate or falsehoods. Because having them repeated on our site can directly harm us, if you're on the message board you should be aware that posting something from them could get you banned. They are:

  • SirYacht/Chat Sports/James Yoder - Fake news merchant who likes to make up plausible rumors or report non-sure things to get a false scoop.
  • Any local Spartan media when they talk about Michigan. Unless they're yelling "MAKE PLAYS!"
  • Pete Finebaum: FoxNews for SEC fans. Occasionally useful to them but the only times he's intersecting with us is when he's carrying Saban's water.
  • Rainer Sabin: Finebaum wannabe hired by the Freep to troll Michigan fans.
  • Steve Deace: Curiously well-funded white supremacist radio host who's got such a small Michigan following you can safely assume anyone posting positively about him is Deace and ban him again. Creates lots of burner accounts to promote himself. Recently booted by Maven for advocating lynching.
  • Barstool: People who took the freedom of young internet too seriously because really what they wanted to do the whole time was propagate bad ideas.

I'm not sure that this buckeye is really a troll but a good portion of his comment history is defending either Zach Smith or Jim Tressel. Is currently getting neg-bombed for his latest comment in the NCAA violations thread. Doesn't seem to be adding a ton of value to our site like other buckeyes can sometimes. Not sure how mods want to handle him, but thought I'd point him out at least.

I understand your concern for his mental health. Coaches have been notified.

I see this is now well over 500 posts.  Maybe time to retire 2022 to the Hall of Stickies and start a 2023 thread?  

 

[edit:  in your spare time, LOL.  Thanks for all you do to make this board the best online community I participate in]

Marvin Harrison Jr. Tansfering to USC 

Clear as can be that the OP bit hard on a phony rumor posted on Twitter by 'Swanky Wolverine', a shaky source if there ever was one.

Note to the OP 'Golden section': you're NOT getting a Bolivian vacation, thanks to a clean posting history, but in the future please remember to take due diligence before you post a new discussion thread.

Why no comments on Brian's latest Unverified Voracity? I'm logged in and the comments box appears on other posts, but not this one.

While I can certainly understand not wanting to deal with the commenters, even the "Seth Made Me Write This" post had comments.

("Comments turned off" might not be a bad idea if this is in fact on purpose.)
