QB CJ Stroud (All B1G, 2022 B1G QB of the Year, All-American, NFL OROY, Houston Texans)

Last Thursday was the worst I can remember

Not that the Bellisari Bashing on Bucknuts wasn’t worse back in the day. It was much worse

What made last Thursday the worst was people who were passing judgement on a quarterback in the first 15 minutes of his career.

Oregon has more and better athletes than Minnesota had. In the unfathomable event that one of them has the temerity to make a play or two and some of the same idiots show up, I challenge all other mods to a race. Let’s see who can ban the most, the fastest

When I’m three sheets and a cloud of dust, yet still thinking things like “Good God man, what is wrong with you?” — there’s a problem. :lol:

Good luck out there!

Stay classy, BP.

Cant speak for the other mods, but I intend to show a little grace to active members. Maybe a warning will suffice. As for the others… either my moderation controls are limited or I don’t know how they work, but I haven’t figured out how to permanently ban someone. I have, however, been able to ban some spammers for 64,000 years. In today’s game thread, the spam treatment will have to do.

I wouldn't mind a banning tutorial.

What happened to the temporary bans? Nobody let me off the hook when I got drunk enough to say we might be better off without Mo Wells!

(If you’re watching, Mo, I love you!)

It’s worse that a lot of ‘em only show up for game threads to drag players who are having a rough game, then they proceed to ghost Sunday through Friday.

It’s a big part of why I generally stay out of game threads outside of half time and post game. I’m about to start rage-banning some of them (and I have a list from last Thursday).

Bash Ryan Day. Bash Corey Dennis. Bash Kerry Coombs to your hearts content. They’re all highly paid to take that smoke. But bashing 18-23 year olds for not meeting your personal expectations for the program is not fucking OK.
I show up for the post game most of the time. If I really need to make a needlessly stupid, short-sighted, and reactionary remark during the game, I leave it to group texts. :lol:

I’m probably lucky they let me have any moderation powers at all here, but I’m with you; I’d like to know how to ban better and faster. I was banning SEC trolls as fast as I could after the NC game vs LSU… the whole time I was thinking, “there has GOT to be a faster way to do this”


Xenforo API endpoints are your friend. I have to guess that your admin controls are all pretty much available in APIs and you could write a very simple python function with two parameters — user name and ban time length. Every time someone crosses the line, just submit the function with their user name and how long you want to sit them in timeout…

/done

Trouble is, if I have hooks for submitting functions, I don’t know how they work. Sounds like something @Clarity might be able to help with, if he’s so inclined
