Apparently talking bad about a recruit who made the decision to go elsewhere is ok, same with former players who make a decision they don't like.
Recruits can't read other boards to see thing said about their fellow recruits and apparently won't care about the hate and spite if someone chooses another school outside of LSU.

You think Recruit A is going to randomly google "Anthony Johnson declares for NFL draft"?

No

You think Recruit A is going to randomly google "Recruit A" "LSU" and find his name on TD?

Yes

This isn't about COMPLETELY eliminating the hate, that can't be done. It's about preventing it from being seen on open searches. Why do you continuously comment about his post (splitting hairs), but ignore mine?

You have a big recruits dad who actually post on the board, you think he doesn't read other boards? You think other recruits don't have family or friends who read the board? You don't think a recruit can come across TD and read other boards and threads?

And the example you gave with Dupre's mom is one that has never been tolerated. It isn't tolerated on another player from a rival school, current player, former recruit, etc. As Chicken and other admins have said, the recruiting board is one of the most policed boards, until the people who post on it also decide to avoid making comment on other boards nothing will change.

More policing and making it harder for casual recruiting fans isn't the answer.

Right, because same people asking for more policing can't follow their own advice on various other boards.

I've never bashed a recruit, a recruits family, or a coach on this board.

Stop acting like it's everybody

Only if you stop acting like it's everybody which is why the board needs more policing. You mentioned an isolated incident, I am sure if I took the time I could find comments you made, that a recruit, recruits family, or friends could misconstrue that could be on another board

Yea really could and it was just scanning, I'm not saying bashing I am saying criticizing. Which is what a lot of the complaints center around. Someone goes on the recruiting board, criticizes a recruit and people get upset. That is vastly different than the Dupree mom thread, which as I stated is an abnormally for the most part and those threads/post get handled with a swift RA.

Where are the mods??? Less than a week from NSD and no one is checking RA's??? This is the exact thing ppl were talking about with recruits reading negative posts on the RB. It's ridiculous.

I think we should only allow glowingly positive posts on the Rant and RB from now on. I'm sick of hte negativity

Exactly
2 week automatic ban for criticizing players, recruits, and former recruits who went to a school you may not like
