Feedback: Hawk Fans

[cyismydog]

I'm usually not one to complain a ton about hawk fans, but this is getting ridiculous. EVERY SINGLE THREAD has to have a hawk related post from all these Hawk trolls. Every thread has to get derailed, and when someone says something, these hawk trolls play the victim. I know the mods are doing the best they can, but it's time we got some of these trolls and actually had informed discussions, preferably not about the Hawkeyes except for in the In-state rivals forum.

I support to an extent. Some of them do offer insight that isn't just to be a jerk to us. However, some of them are that guy who just wants to one up everything or re-draw the attention back to themselves. Some visiting fans are great for a site. Whoever the OSU fan was who was here, he was cool. Didn't rub it in our faces that we aren't good and we're probably going to get smoked. Some of the NDSU posters have been cool, but we've also had some that weren't exactly fun to deal with.

If you're talking about the COY thread, you're out of line. Certain posters (not even Hawk posters) have their panties in a bunch, and started a ******* match. Honestly, the people ******** about the Hawk posters are more of a problem than the Hawk posters themselves.

Go away, and you could solve two problems at once. :wink:

To an extent. Without a select few Hawk fans, crap never gets started.

If you have an oil leak, you don't just keep adding oil (suspending certain people) as a secondary fix. You replace whatever needs to be replaced to fix the leak (permanent bans).

I disagree

The Hawks were never mentioned in that COY thread.

This is one of the more pointless cry sessions today that I've seen in a long time.

The kid isn't out of line at all. You're far from the authority on being in line.

Right, but is that really what CF is about? Banning people because they're a fan of another team?

I'm pretty sure the mod team here does as good of a job as they can in regards to keeping trolls at bay. But honestly, there are plenty of ISU posters here who cause just as much grief as the Iowa trolls.

The line authorities must be respected

Sadly jimlad I am going to have to agree. Hawk fans need to go(Rdubbs excluded). :yes:

If contributions to threads were to be judge in a vacuum, then yes, one would be inclined believe it was just a disagreement over what is to be considered sound logic. However you start adding in documented obsessions, and ...

Wanna put this in idiot terms?

 

[DJKHawk]

Until someone bans me, I'm here to stay.

I tend to think I'm more of an afterthought here, anyways, so I doubt you guys will mind.

Dear idiot :yes:,

he was saying consider the entire body of work of the troll posters--not just the one thread--and you can understand peoples' reaction.

When posters have documented they cannot put their fan allegiance aside, comments that are illogical, but otherwise neutral, become tainted with malice. Example: if I were to post on HR that I could see Iowa go 6-6, even though I think it is sound logic, it will come off as a flame. Solution: I do not post that on HR.

Wow. What a ridiculously difficult concept to understand. Too bad a certain few Hawk posters on this site don't follow that advice. Oh wait, they do. They're far too busy raising hell on CF to post on HR.

Not the same. Iowa is coming off of a 9-4 season, ISU is coming off of a 2-10 season. Saying Iowa will go 6-6 is like an Iowa fan saying, "PR should win COY the year if ISU goes 3-9."

I agree, there is a troll problem here. But seriously folks, it's a message board. If you get your panties in a bunch every time somebody is immature, then I'd hate to know what your life is like.

Also, some people seem to be just looking for e-drama, which is sad and lame in its own way.
