I don't know how possible it is, but I think it would be productive to have a feature on this board where X amount of downvotes on a post/thread will automatically delete it.
It is not realistic to have the mods monitoring every post on the board 24/7.
Especially for threads about recruits. We know they are reading, it would be nice to get rid of the trolls stiring up rumors and idiots bumping asking for updates.
Is this even a possibility, or am I way off base?
Michigan State does not and will not run the 3-4 defense.

Hey all, Trevor made me a mod for this board. I thought I'd introduce myself and lay down some basic ground rules for posting on here:
1. This is first and foremost a Michigan State Spartans' message board and exists for the MSU fanbase. In short, this is our house. All are welcome here, but guests should act like guests. You do not go into another person's house, break their dishes, then demand a backrub and a foot massage. There will be minimal tolerance for trolling and baseless rumor-spreading. This is not the forum to rip on MSU, or otherwise disrespect Michigan State. This forum's priority is information, not speculation or flame wars; keep that to the RCMB or the Blue Board.
2. MSU fans: Same goes for you. We do have guests on here, and not only from other schools. Recruits, their families, friends and parents ARE on here and the last thing any of you want to do is to some how negatively influence a recruit's opinion of MSU. As far as the trolls are concerned, point them out to me and I'll take care of them. The best thing you can do is to ignore them; I know how hard that is and have gotten into it with them before myself. That ends now. As far as opposing fans, there will be very low tolerance for mixing it up in the individual recruits' threads. I'm ok with some back and forth in the main 2012 thread, but not much and it should be limited SOLELY to recruiting.
3. In that vein, keep posts in the individual recruits threads to: a) Updated information about the ongoing MSU recruitment of a prospect. This does include other offers, visits (yes, even to other schools), camp performances, prospect ranking updates, updates about leaders/preferences, commitment schedules and the eventual commitment, and b) How said recruit would possibly fit in at MSU or what another school is recruiting them as (positional-wise). I prefer that any rumors be supported by a link, or some other source.
4. All other recruiting information or discussion should be kept in the general recruiting thread. That goes for team recruiting rankings, guesses as to who ends up at each school, scholarship #s, overall depth chart looks, 2013 prospects, etc. As far as commentary, I've got no problem with people being critical of MSU's recruiting but please realize that there's a line between criticism and outright bashing, and I expect you not to cross it.
5. As a general rule, I'll give out at least 2 warnings before any banning. If there are any questions or concerns, send me a PM and I'm glad to talk about them.
If you have any questions about the rules, post them in this thread. Glad to be on board, happy posting!
