We’re here because we’re cardinals fans and earned credibility (or not—whatever) by finding this board and contributing to this community.
Whatever authority I have here is established over the 25-odd years I’ve spent here and the 44,000+ posts I’ve made.
If everyone just posted “check out what this twitter rando said” before posting stuff from Twitter randos, it would be easier to contextualize.
But people post like Cardinal Johanna in the same way they post Ian Rappaport as just tossing slop into the forum. Obviously no one is going to stop them, but I’ll comment that they posted another rando here.
It people would just check the source before mindlessly reposting maybe we’d have a more hygienic information environment here.
I literally got suckered by it a few weeks ago when someone posted that the Scouting Director hit a five-leg parlay on the cards picks and won $170k.
I respect y’all enough not to share every little thing thing I found on another platform that gave me a quick dopamine hit. I wish others did.
Well obviously you are allowed to post freely. I'm still unsure of your follower account and I feel anyone could rack up enough posts with enough time and energy though.
What LIAC posted was a crime against humanity. Because everyone is forced to read everything posted instead of having the freedom to skip posts and even threads entirely, I too believe all posts should have a minimum follower filter to weed out all undesirables.
