Dear Noah: I come in peace from tRCMB.

    Yep. We agree.

    I thought the OP's OP wanted this for ALL of 247sports. Sorry, I haven't really been paying attention to the details.

    I think a couple people thought that way and that was the discussion until some people wanted to try and turn it on the RCMB somehow trolling.

    As Noah said, it would likely be a board-by-board option. tBB wouldn't have to adopt it, but it's a feature that some of us see merit in. Pay to post sites, like BOL, Auburn and Bucknuts don't have to worry about it. The larger free boards (S. Car, MSU, Maryland, for example) may want the option.

    It's just a topic to discuss. No one's wedded to the idea, but it's just something to toss around.

    If they want to institute that policy on tRCMB then fine.

    I think the Michigan board is fine and the trolling is relatively low which is surprising because the OSU and MSU fans outnumber us by a lot on this site. TBH I think this is an overreaction.

    That is a solid $70 that 247 could have pulled in.

    recruiting was hid in a dark basement and rarely talked about.

    Not even Basketball recruiting?

    I know for a fact that VTSmitty has 2 cousins, Earl J and Cooter, that could help do away with some of the trolls.

    These boys whoop ass. And they work cheap

    Again, which is why it wouldn't be made 247-wide. The problem is that is if any site owners want the option, it has to be written into the code somehow, and Noah's in charge of that. He's got to approve anything like that, and we felt that maybe some other boards would like it. FWIW, that thread was over 5 pages and had at least 8 of our 15 mods in it before it was linked to tBB.

    Michigan State does not and will not run the 3-4 defense.

    Not really. Not that I remember. There has been tDuffy and tBreslin forums (I think I have them right), for a while, but as far as recruiting info goes, until the move over here it was pretty non existant. Now, talk about what was actually happening on the field or on the court is a whole different story. I would say that recruiting talk, because of articles posted has gone up quite a bit from where it was, but most of those threads struggle to get 20 responses.

    I don't even understand this post. Is it code or something? Or do I need to hire an inner city interpreter?

    Also there are people on small sites that don't want to pay at all. Would we make Lesticles and Scooter pay for a name when they didn't have a board or any fans before their board gets online? It discourages new posters. I think it could work on some big sites like BOL, RCMB, OSU's board. I would be surprised to see it work on some of the small boards.

    It would be a serious discouragement to new users. You would need to make the first one free, pay for any additional.

    Aren’t some boards on 247 VIP only? Why doesn’t tRCMB do that?

    That's never been our philosophy with tRCMB. I think there are other ways of handling this as well. I have some suggestions I've passed on to Noah.

    tRCMB is kind of unique in many ways on 247Sports.

    Might I make a counter-proposal? A BB ban for Woodson, who's done nothing but troll a thread started in good faith that's providing largely fruitful discussion.

    There would be substance behind your proposal if you had suggested the spartans that troll that thread be banned also. As it stands, you're words are hollow.

    Make your board VIP or don't. No one cares. It's your issue. It has nothing to do with the rest of us.
