What a low down, cheap shot. Hope your kid never has anything like that happen to them on national TV only to have some ******* get on a message board to make fun of them. It's crap like this from aholes like you that make we wish we weren't even associated with your crowd. The experience yesterday in Huntington was a far cry from the experience we get in Sh%&t'sboro.
Nerve Status : Struck
Not really. Just pointing out yet another example of how low class much of GSU's fanbase is and why a growing number of App fans not only refuse to go back there for games, but would like to totally disassociate ourselves from your program.
Bro, App State fans literally rammed a field goal post through our bus windows one time
You're comparing what some 18 yo kids did 20 years ago to a supposedly adult.
I realize this was from a Marshall poster, but leave it up to a GSU poster to shove take advantage of the situation, What a low down, cheap shot. Hope your kid never has anything like that happen to them on national TV only to have some ******* get on a message board to make fun of them. It's crap like this from aholes like you that make we wish we weren't even associated with your crowd. The experience yesterday in Huntington was a far cry from the experience we get in Sh%&t'sboro.
Just consider the source and ignore it. Not worth the concern. Appy State has accomplished a lot more than your favorite rival. Also ESPN2 should hang their heads in shame for keeping on showing the kid, even way after the play was history. Classless.

I get it, funny memes are lost on your generation.
Not exactly the behavior I’d expect from a moderator.
Being a moderator doesn't mean you have to operate in a sterile cockpit environment. Double standards and abuse of power are one thing. Throwing the occasional shade is another.

Right or wrong, CBS would have done the same had it been Auburn/Tennessee. If you want to be big time, and play in the big time spot, these are the types of things that comes with the territory. My issue is not with CBS, rather it’s closer to home with a moderator, who can censure any fan, acting lower than most fans do on this board. Classless. But, like DG said, it’s not surprising.

I respectfully disagree. And would not have posted my last post had I seen this first, but I will let it stand and do what you wish. However, I do ask you to consider my second request.

If I'm reading this right.....you ran to GTS to complain about this?

Is your name Mike Evans?
Yes I did. And I stand by it. You don’t have any recourse when you don’t have a moderator of your own and you can’t get into with it with someone who can censure you.

....which would be accurate if there weren't several other mods you could go to.
You HAD a mod....he actively engaged in trash talk as well. Then he disappeared.
1. That Mod is a Georgia Southern fan. He's lightly trolling, but there are no rules he is obviously breaking. You can't expect mods to be completely above any heckling. This is a sports message board
2. Evans left himself open to be trolled because of his antics after beating Charlotte last week. If you are going to give, you best be ready to receive.
3. Again, light trolling is going to happen anytime a league team takes a loss, especially one of the better teams. The goal is to avoid name calling and keep it good natured, but we're not going to sit there and run off everyone who pokes fun at someone else. We will always ban name calling or posts that become so blatantly problematic they take away from the thread.

I think he may have died.
Given our numbers on this board, we need someone representing us, and someone we can go to when things pop up. And, at times, y’all us down if we get out of order. Right now we don’t have that. I don’t see this as an unreasonable request.

I see eight blue tagged names at the top of this forum.
Seems like there's plenty of options to go to when you need assistance. Also there's plenty of people to evaluate an individual mod's behavior/performance. Just because one of them is no longer an App fan doesn't mean there's anything wrong with the makeup of the mod group.
This screams "I'm a victim" and demanding redress of your grievance, not anything that seems to be an actual problem.
Always figured it would be a Gast fan that would end up going down this road....thought App fans were better than that.

I'm fine with an App mod if there becomes a major push that we need one. However, I'm quite sure UL fans will want representation as well as would Georgia State or Coastal.
If there's discussion from multiple parties that we need another one, than I'll gladly run the request up to GTS. But I need to hear it from more than one person for obvious reasons...

5-6 of those are actually active. Burnthehorse hasn't posted on the site since January. InsideUALR primarily runs the Little Rock forum, and doesn't to my knowledge post on the main conference forum.
I made a promise to myself after a game at Eastern Georgia (pre-Armanti IIRC) that i'd NEVER go back down there and I've stuck to that promise. Never again.
Also, I'm glad that I'm not alone in hoping that some day soon Appalachian State University is completely disassociated from that place.

I made the same promise to myself years ago, I think it was 2001, to never go back to Boone. I’ve kept that promise.
