Whatever happened to substantive responses and respect for..

a differing point of view? I'm not talking about direct insults from coots or flame-bait from obvious coot imposters; I'm talking genuine differences between us real Clemson fans.
My experience here has been thus - those with little of substance to offer in a discussion seem to be the first to make personal attacks. There are a couple of people here and in TAC who are notorious for that. Those folks add nothing to the discussion, and they seem incapable of adding much even if they wanted to. Just too stupid.
This is a place for discussion. Some folks are more optimistic than others. Some are 100% sold on Dabo, the ACC, changing conferences, Brad Brownell, whatever. Others have their doubts. Clemson fans should discuss these things rationally and, yes, they should be allowed to vent a little when bad things happen. Getting beat repeatedly by the coots is gonna pyss some fans off, and they're gonna cast doubt on leadership; a totally natural and often-warranted response. Those things can be discussed rationally and debated substantively.
If you're incapable of doing that, and all you can think of to say is a personal insult to the person who turned over your apple cart, then please just spare the rest of us the waste of bandwidth. Add something to the conversation or S T F U.

Seriously, please enlighten me...

Please do point out the numerous times where, instead of offering an alternate point of view, I've relied solely on ad hominem attacks to counter a post I didn't like? As I said before, I'm NOT talking about coots or coots pretending to be Tigers.

That Went Out of Style

years ago when the format changed from a "chat room" where you had some real discussions and sometimes, friendly disagreements. Using barely disguised gutter vocabulary was simply not done back then. The folks who persist in juvenile "food-fights" on here are classless. Would some carry-on like they do if their mother was reading such drivel?

That was when Tigernet was a Clemson Sports website and before it got to be---as all these folks are so fond of saying---a "messageboard.

i think drivel eats drivel and the absurd, used proactively, best counters the absurd.
i lost hope for this bored in 2008, just prior to the season if memory serves.
and yes, my mother has read some of my drivel.
