Penn State Cult (Joe Knew)

https://bwi.forums.rivals.com/threads/difficult-days-lie-ahead-on-this-board.135110/
I am stating the obvious but this board will be awash with trolls over the next few weeks. The best way to deal with the worst offenders is to report them and not reply. The mods can't be here 24/7, but they eventually take out the trash.
Other boards don't have this problem. How do they handle it, when ours can't?

22 more replies, and no one can answer this question.

It's because you're such easy targets. The same fanbase that thought they had the best quarterback in the country, the best academics, the best coach, the best-smelling farts, also think "no blood no rape".

Football season is just 3 weeks a way. Some onemight post something that isn't a glowing review of how some 2nd string QB is doing in camp, which, of course, constitutes trolling over there.

I actually clicked through and looked at the main forum.

I'd say the football to non football threads are 1:5 or lighter

That board is really just a truther forum for Joesus.

Highly entertaining thread in which the Cult tells each other that the rest of the country doesn't care about the scandal and everyone other than Internet trolls loves them some PSU and Joesus. Inevitably, a Buckeye fan wanders into the thread on page two and gently breaks it to the Cult how their protests of the BoT and never moving on are viewed outside the bubble. The result is a feeding frenzy the likes of which is seldom seen outside the Animal Channel showing crocs attacking a zebra visiting a water hole. Bushwood goes full moron in the thread, but my favorite post is the Joebot lecturing the poor, uninformed Buckeye poster that he simply does not understand the "full scope of the issue."

kentuckycb: "You and the nation don't appreciate the full scope of the issue. The Sandusky issue exposed major problems within our university governance structure. Also, and infinitely more important, it exposed critical problems within the state entities charged with child welfare.

Most Penn Staters keep "fighting" to fix those problems...and can/will affect change.

You and the nation only read what the media knows will get clicks, i.e. Paterno stuff....which is only a small fraction of the issue."
