The posi v nega issues on Rant

I'm pretty negative and I get it, especially on The Rant. (Let's not even discuss Scoreboard).
But here's the thing:
Definition of rant
intransitive verb
1 : to talk in a noisy, excited, or declamatory manner
2 : to scold vehemently
transitive verb
: to utter in a bombastic declamatory fashion (mw.com)
I truly thought The Rant was where we are supposed to bitch and be negative. Now the positive people attack the negative and vise versa.
Maybe, just maybe we add an LSU Board where we are more positive and upbeat. I promise if you do, I will post positive stuff there and will keep the bitching on the Rant.
Just my lowly point of view, and I tender my deepest respect to Chicken and all the other Admins.

Even in game threads, I usually abandon the thread once LSU trails for the first time in a game. However, I think the "Posi Board" would require more admin work and would eventually get overrun by the Negas.

Derp.
Why would we need another board? If YOU want to be more positive, then just be MORE positive on The Rant. If we opened another board, then it would devolve into The Rant, as that is the overall mood of the program right now.
It is what it is.
Be the change you want to see.
Carpe diem.
Just do it.

But I agree. Another board would just turn into Rant II.

If you want a safe space where everyone has to play nice, stick to the recruiting board. No one tolerates trolling on that board...
