HerdNation Mods Covering up NCAA Violations?

Are the HerdNation mods covering up NCAA booster violations committed by Marshall's Rivals subscribers? The rampant deletion of posts proving the violations with pictures and even just referencing it makes one wonder.

Would the wvu fans like to see the saved evidence and the threads before they were deleted?
 
I saw them posted, so I got to read them prior to yet another of your posts being censured. I've been banned from the site for a year and a half, along with several other great posters - Banker, Rifle, MLBlack.

It looks as though the poster in question is going to place the Herd program back on probation, if Hypocrite Nation continues to turn a blind eye.

You post good information on that board, information that someone like myself finds very valuable, whether it be about coaching, recruits, or football in general. I'm not sure why they continue to delete your posts, while allowing truly bad content to remain.

Perhaps the $7.99 per month is viewed more importantly than honest information.

I also saw where one of the moderators outed your personal information for all to see. That's the exact same moderator who pinned a thread just a few days prior to that incident, stating that anyone posting personal information about another poster would be suspended and/or banned for life. Do the rules not apply to the moderators? This same moderator even bragged about suspending posting privileges of the violator of the board rule, but yet, turned around and did the exact same thing to you.
 
Do the rules not apply to the moderators?

The board owner pinned a post of rules at the top of the off-topic board. In that thread, I asked if moderators would also have those same rules or if they would not be held to them like has happened in the recent past. The owner deleted my question and said that if I had a question about how the board would be moderated that I should PM him. So, I restated the question with a simple "Are these rules also for moderators?" It seems like a harmless and fair question. He again deleted my question and said that I should PM him if I have a question about how the board would be moderated.

The following day, a wvu fan asks a question about the moderation of the board in the exact same thread. His question not only didn't get deleted, but it was also answered.

They prove my point the more they try to delete things.

Don't care

Sorry, 2-1. You lose again.

The background: The below pictures show what I posted on HypocriteNation. A large contributor to their premium board (which has a main focus on recruiting) is a poster by the name of HerdFever. HerdFever's twitter handle is "drewnasty_1." He is a 30+ year older who moved out of his mom's house last year (no, really, that isn't smack). His Twitter showed him making numerous NCAA booster violations. He was regularly Tweeting Marshall recruits, engaging them in conversations, and urging them to come to Marshall. He was also Tweeting current and former Marshall players at the same time trying to get them to engage the recruits in discussions about why they should go to Marshall. These are level 2 NCAA violations. He also sent some of the recruits private messages. I have proof of many of these instances. His page also includes numerous racial and homophobic slurs. So, besides the NCAA violations, he also is baiting the recruits to his page which is full of these racial and homophobic comments ("I guess all ******s like yourself has [sic] AIDS," "And your ****** ass don't [sic] feel sorry for what you wrote . . . this is why people don't give a fvck about the LGBT," etc.).

I posted about how he was committing violations. The post was quickly deleted. I was told that it has no place on the board. That's odd considering that over the years the moderators have posted warnings about those exact violations, and the moderators have even posted comments from the Marshall compliance office urging boosters not to do exactly that. But, now that a paying customer who contributes a lot of recruiting information to the premium site does it, the moderators don't want to discuss any violations. I believe they are complicit in the violations considering they profit off of the violations the booster commits, try hiding the violations, and delete any mention of them.

So, after that post was deleted, I pointed out how Marshall fans should not act toward student-athletes. Below, you can see the pictures of my post which was deleted. Again, I was told that it had no place on the board to be discussed. So, you're telling me that discussing Marshall fans' actions towards Marshall student-athletes doesn't have a place on the board? When a Marshall fan Tweets the starting QB that he "fvcking sucks" and tells him to transfer so he doesn't keep ruining the program, it shouldn't be discussed? When a booster commits violations and the recruits he contacts look at his page and see how Marshall fans treat their own student-athletes if they don't live up to expectations, it doesn't belong on the board?

Both were very reasonable discussions. But, when the culprit is a paying customer who brings them a lot of recruiting information, why would they try to stop his violations? They, of course, would want it to continue to get the information (which leads to money):

Herd Fever is an insider with recruiting information? Lol. No wonder why that site struggles.
 
Another Soap Opera unfolding. I think I will name this one "Why is everybody always picking on Yagsisnots"

Don't tell Josh Stowers that! According to him, HypocriteNation is thriving at an all-time high. He bases this on the number of followers HypocriteNation has on social media. Of course, he fails to acknowledge that the vast majority of those people have no idea about the board and simply are supporting a generic term (insert your favorite sports team following by "nation") and liking it on social media.

Numerous long-time posters have commented on that same unfairness towards me. You can even look at the thread linked below to see it.

I asked two very simple, very reasonable questions. I asked if these rules also applied to moderators, as it hasn't in the recent past. Instead of a simple answer, I had both of my questions about how the board would be moderated edited/deleted. Yet, when a wvu fan (Big Country) asks about how the board is moderated and what is/isn't allowed, his message not only doesn't get deleted, but it is actually answered.

Let me know if you need more examples.
 
Don't go to any trouble on MY account. I could not care less about your drama queen life.

Yet here you are chiming in with multiple posts about it. "I couldn't care less . . . but I am going to read and response multiple times to his posts."

I drive the ratings on these shitholes. Vermin needs to start giving me a cut or an upgraded cabin on my next cruise for what I bring to this board.

You are truly a legend in your own mind.

I read everything that comes up on this board. Responding to your BS posts in no way means I give a $hit about your drama queen life.

You read everything yet have a disproportionate rate of responding to the posts made by a person whose life you don't care about.

Obsessed.
