Reasons why Georgia Tech Swarm is better than StingTalk

[GTMom]

1. Swarm has a "Like" button

2. It's soooo much easier to post pics on Swarm

3. StingTalk had a "no girls allowed" mentality

4. StingTalkers are rude

5. Swarm posts are more interesting reads

6. Swarm members are true Tech fans because they show up at Fan Day.....

Please feel free to comment if you have had any experience with StingTalk. I am just curious if anyone else has had any similar experience....

I used to follow ST years ago but they were rude.
I like GTSwarm because you guys don't give me much grief about being female. Except for that one time somebody called me a cougar.

Exactly, my point! Although a cougar comment is not unexpected when you're in the gender minority on a college football fan forum. I'm sure it was meant as a term of endearment [emoji6]. But as a general rule Swarm is classier.

1. Swarm has a "Like" button
I "like" it as well. It keeps a lot of the same thing being posted again and again
2. It's soooo much easier to post pics on Swarm
That and video's
3. StingTalk had a "no girls allowed" mentality
They can be hard on both (guys and girls) They do have one woman they seem to like and can hold her on. But I've seen were they've picked on you. If not mistaken, aren't you ban ? and for what ? I've never seen anything over the top posts to warrant a ban from you
4. StingTalkers are rude
You have to have thick skin. It doesn't matter your sex. No one is excluded.
5. Swarm posts are more interesting reads
The best GT site on the web !!!
6. Swarm members are true Tech fans because they show up at Fan Day.....
Seeing pics and people's post proved that to me.

I wouldn't worry about ST. Our gain..their loss.

The Swarm, the Hive, and Stingtalk = The good, the bad, and the ugly

ST is run by a {offensive comment redacted}, {offensive comment redacted}, {offensive comment redacted}.

And furthermore, {offensive comment redacted}, {offensive comment redacted} ...

IOW, don't be surprised if you're treated like crap there.

I agree. Some of the members are nice, but the majority are what you said. Haha!

Agreed, especially that turd DressedCheeseCyborg.

It's too bad too because it used to be a pretty good site.

I only lurk from time to time. Gotta slum it erry once in a while.

Salute to Captain Obvious! Wouldn't you be?

 

[Stinger90]

You know you're missed when they come over here picking at ya

 

[GTMom]

Isn't it funny how I get banned and now all you guys come over here to the better forum? Hahaha!

I've only ever been a member on Rivals/Kelly Quinlan. I followed Eric to the Swarm.

 

[akinji]

Nobody reported you. The mod required that we all stop horsing around in the sale/trade forum and you decided to keep going.

Anyway, coit misses you, wishes you were there. Told us where you were so we came to bigcry you.

While we appreciate the sentiment, these types of comparisons are often apples and oranges which ultimately just promote trolling of GT fans by other GT fans.

I've said this before that I have a lot of respect for all GT sites regardless of who runs them or how they are run because I look at it as an ecosystem of GT fans; each site has different purposes and characters for different audiences. I don't see a need to criticize a site because they are run differently or the fans interact differently.
