A New Hope?

I recommend that TD.com dedicate a new, separate board which would be restricted for only the elite Rant members whom have already forgotten more than the rest of us will ever learn about LSU football (and all sports).
This would accomplish many things: These self-proclaimed experts would be free to have their high-brow discussions and exchanges without having to bother with the posts from all the inferior members. They would never have to converse with sub-Ranters (best known as "idiots," "morons," and being "delusional," (among others).
To the unwashed masses that don't have the divine knowledge which the Mega-Ranters have possessed for centuries, the rest of TD.com's members would be free to discuss (and debate)legit threads and posts, without the same old tired and annoying insults and base-clogging terms such as "FACT," "Book It," and others, without having to endure the side-effects that inevitably accompany the rants from those who are all-knowing and all-seeing.
Of course, TD.com is not mine to tinker with; I know others are responsible for creating, maintaining and overseeing this great site, and I'm certainly in no position to lobby for any changes just because I like them.
I'm interested to see how many members would support the idea of having a "Mega-Tiger Rant," or whatever you want to call it. Please reply w/a simple "yea" or "nay," and if you like it, feel free to explain why you do.
I realize that those Ranters who hate just about everything will respond with flames, but in doing so they are only wasting time they can't ever get back. There's really nothing they can do that will even sting, much less insult me. You can only succeed if I let you, and trust me, I won't.
Thanks.

Great Idea. I want to be a Mega-Tiger. Frick the Nega-Tigers. Will it have an LSU Trivia test for one to gain admittance to this board? You know, to weed out the idiots, morons, and the "unwashed masses"? I hate unwashed masses.

Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Hey, do what you want to do. I'm about giving the people what they want. And you can't be certain which side of this fence I want to be on. You really don't.
BTW, there are a lot of Ranters that have a real want to keep Saban-Miles posts all on one loonnnnnnng thread.

It should be a multi-faceted examination:
1. LSU sports trivia/knowledge
2. IQ
3. Grammar and spelling -- must demonstrate
practicable knowledge of English language
4. Understanding of the term 'ad-hominem' --
any ad-hom attack would result in immediate
revocation of elite-board posting privilege
5. Reading comprehension
6. Disallow posters with more than 30 posts/day: quantity /=/ quality
7. Annual testing for new members of elite board
That would weed out at least half of the 'contributors' here. Wishful thinking I know. But hey, a guy can dream right?
I'd take my chances on this rigorous exam.

You need to be over on the recruiting board with the recruitsnobs, they are numerous over there, you'll be right at home.

...only those with 50,000 + "posts" would be eligible..

Grow up soon and see if you could last an entire day, well let me re-phrase that since you'd probably only last less than 1 minute (us girls can just sense that, even online, ya know), without attacking a single Ranter. Just one day?
