A call to action

Submitted by chunkums on

Brothers of Mgoboard,

In the last month I have witnessed a decay of epic proportions on Mgoboard.  As the people lose their will, they grow more and more discouraged, leading to lamentations and desperate thoughts.  It is our duty as posters to help these people back on the right path, gently guiding them towards the light that is Michigan football.  It is your civic duty as a poster on Mgoblog, and as a Michigan fan, to neg the shit out of stupid posts and police the boards with the violence of a post-Gittleson dinner poop.

God speed MICH fans

(Not ending with go blue because that usually follows when someone makes a really douchey and misinformed comment and is often used to win over the audience.)

You have points gentlemen.  Do not be afraid to lose them becuase of a little (-1) that it gives you.  This board needs some serious self-policing.

I do agree that stupid posts are up 50% in the last month.  It is my belief that this is due to the elimination of the free neg-bang.  People can grow their points by posting more vacuous topics and replies because the punishment for this behavior just isn't there anymore.  Bring back free neg-banging and the moderators can get some rest.  The board will self police very nicely.

Perhaps bringing back the free neg-bang for non-established posters (perhaps if someone is under X pts or has been a member for less than a few weeks) but keeping the penalty for negging established contributors. I agree that the stupidity is getting a little out of hand. I find it all to be quality entertainment, though.
