G&B, I just took the time to confirm USC's 2006 football standings, as shown in the Steve Spurrier article. The Cocks were 5th, not 4th, in the SEC East. Please see page 136 of the 2009 SEC Football Media Guide for authoritative reference. Cheers. Dirtlawyer1 ( talk) 04:06, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
I don't think it is necessary to antagonize the aforementioned IP. I understand why you'd be frustrated with them, but it was an obviously new editor editing in good faith. The IP in question's behavior is also understandable when reverted and templated. The whole situation would have been diffused if you had just moved the content to it's own section. Anyways, I get frustrated by new users on occasion too so no worries. Falcon8765 (TALK) 03:30, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
I am abit confused. It is obvious that you are a supporter of the University of South Carolina athletic program so I fail to see why allowing two traditional sports logos of the same size to be used side by side should cause a problem. Since the logos are of not in violation of non-free overuse (the ones in the "blood drive" section were removed), their size and placement should not be an issue. "Point of view" should also not be an issue if the point of view is rotated from the title of the article ("Clemson-Carolina / Carolina-Clemson") throughout the article. 02:02, 29 September 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Apollo1975 ( talk • contribs)

Due to your recent attention to the article on USC's steroid scandal and its associated Talk page, you inspired me to write a Wikipedia article for Clemson University's steroid scandal of a few years prior. Hope you are as dedicated to improving this new article as you are the one about South Carolina. Cheers! GarnetAndBlack ( talk) 08:56, 28 August 2011 (UTC)

Ah okay, didn't check to see if it was you that changed it- thought it was someone trying to sabotage the stats. Really? Only 3? I'll take your word for it, I think the other teams all-american numbers are skewed- Vandy with 30 and Kentucky with 10? Also, does that include Melvin Ingrams All American Honors?

We're not getting into this racial BS again. Clemson's will did not call for a private school to prevent an "invasion from the negroes". William Watts Ball's book (from the 1930s, no less) is a notoriously racist and opinionated piece of trash that has no business being cited on any Wikipedia page. He made the statement, not Clemson. I'm aware of Tillman's racial issues, but that has nothing to do with this situation nor does Ball's BS have anything to do with the rivalry. Not only is it off topic, but it is not factually accurate. In order for a "fact" to remain on Wikipedia, the burden of proof rests on the person posting said fact, and that cannot be done in this case. If you have a problem with this (or cannot otherwise show how this made-up statement from Ball has anything to do with the rivalry page), then I will gladly pull in a third party AGAIN to set you straight.
I understand that Gamecock fans like to pretend Clemson University is the only school to harbor white racists from 1860-1968, but that is a ridiculous insinuation and I won't tolerate misrepresentations of facts based on one antiquated clown's opinion incorrectly attributed to Thomas G. Clemson.-- LesPhilky ( talk) 04:44, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

I understand the rivalry has gotten a little hot within the last week, but let's step back for a moment. The Dabo Swinney page has been a source of constant vandalism (again, not by you), and part of that is the constant pushing of POV and emphasis on the rivalry, which is not the main focus of his page. Consider that there are many streaks Clemson has against South Carolina that could be documented, but it would be detrimental to those coaches' pages for Clemson and SC fans to get into a pissing contest over highlighting them. Major, significant wins and losses are highlighted, but the loss to SC is not a major, significant game. The records of the coaches and the teams are well-documented throughout the appropriate pages, and if we get into this sniping back and forth each time Swinney or Spurrier loses a game to their respective rival, it's just going to encourage edit wars from other parties on both sides. You and I know how to prevent this from happening. Let's do that.-- LesPhilky ( talk) 08:28, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
As you seem to be very active in topics relating to the University of South Carolina on here, I thought I'd just drop a line that I created a very basic stub for former presidents Arthur K. Smith, James B. Holderman, and John M. Palms if you'd like to expand. It looks like at least for Holderman that there is much to be expanded upon. Best, Connormah ( talk) 18:39, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
In the lede, 'Clemson University' does not carry any qualification, and I added 'South Carolina' for the large majority who are not familiar with this institution. Why did you delete this? It is normal to provide a few words of explanation. Valetude ( talk) 07:06, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
I didn't hear any response from SCRooster, so I want to also extend it to you: If you're going to the game Saturday, I'd like to invite you to swing by and have a beer or two at my tailgate. We never seem to see eye to eye online, so perhaps over a few cold ones, we can reach better understanding. Let me know and I'll give you directions. Have a happy Thanksgiving.-- LesPhilky ( talk) 15:18, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
The lists enumerate the 21 sports that the Gamecocks participate in... The article covers only 14 of them except to mention them in passing in the facilities section... When the lists are displayed near the top of the article, a casual reader can easily determine if a school does or does not compete in a particular sport... GWFrog ( talk) 18:08, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
Hey man, I see you frequently edit articles about South Carolina. Hope you can give me some insight on where to go for information. Like I know i've seen a SCAR football flyer advertising "Carolina vs. North Carolina". But I cant find it! Come give me a hand man, if you want. ESSE QUAM VIDERI! CarolinaBlue ( talk) 17:03, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
Look man, I'm sorry for snapping and getting frustrated with you. I'll admit that I am a hot head who is used to being able to fight people who I feel disrespected by. And you must epically crush the man who disrespects you or fear losing your power base. Call it archaic madness, but it works for where we are and what we do. But stepping outside of the Alpha male world I live in, I need to learn to not take everything as an insult. Deleting all of my work is acceptable by Wikipedia standards if you feel the information isn't noteworthy. I still feel it highly disrespectful but need to learn my environment. I can't go fighting everyone who comes at me wrong. Accusing me to be a Clemson alum or fan using an identity to attack or degrade the appearance of South Carolina is still a personal attack on my integrity. And I hope you realize why I was so offended. Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, and Personal Courage. As cheesy as these values may sound, straying from one is detrimental to any soldier, paratrooper, ranger or whomever you may be. So I hope you can see why I was so offended by you accusing me of subversion. Anyways, I've been told that I need to control my temper and not misconstrue everything as an attack on my position on manhood. So for losing my temper and calling you a keyboard warrior, I am sorry.
I can't tell you how much that I will be on Wikipedia but here's to a new start between us.

Weird--I always assumed that Columbia Municipal Stadium as originally built in 1934 is essentially the lower half of the current Williams-Brice Stadium's grandstands. How's that not the case--just because one grandstand was completely rebuilt? HangingCurve Swing for the fence 01:29, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
Does anyone in Columbia or Raleigh consider this to be a real rivalry: NC State–South Carolina football rivalry? The creator has a long history of creating articles for very marginal CFB "rivalries," several of which have been deleted at AfD. Another editor has PROD'ed it, and if the creator removes the PROD tag, I plan to submit it for AfD. Any objections, sir? Dirtlawyer1 ( talk) 03:45, 16 November 2015 (UTC)
Hey there. Sorry about reverting your edits here [4]. You're absolutely right, and I didn't check the talk page. My apologies. Boomer Vial Holla 10:45, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
Please show me where in any of those SPIs that I was ever definitively linked with the IP editor in question. But you do whatever you feel you have to do, I just think it's rather ironic that you are having the wool pulled over your eyes by a user who has admitted to using IPs to edit without logging in. As far as I understand it, that is the very definition of sock puppetry. And I see that this clearly experienced user with a brand-new account is trying to pull the same con on another editor by claiming that the reason for this shiny new account is because a cyberstalker had their e-mail address [6], a piece of information that isn't even used to establish an account on Wikipedia. But hey, if none of these things is a red flag for you, then just go on swallowing everything you're being spoon fed. Also, did you read the admin's closing comments in that SPI from Jan 2012? Looks like someone else noticed something strange about a relatively new account (only 76 edits) complaining ""How many more years is this going to continue?" and then bringing up WP:BOOMERANG. The user who filed that report replied with an excuse about losing their prior account due to "having to move/death in the family". Sound familiar? If not, let me spell it out…ThomasCWolfe and JustAGal2 are most likely the same person. If anyone has a cyberstalker here, sadly I think it's me. Oh, and to address your assertion that my edits match up closely to the IP editor in question, I think my single revert of the Clemson Football article was my first edit there since March 2014. I've tried to avoid the articles dealing solely with Clemson ever since I and another editor had a dispute that led to both of us getting a 6-month break from editing the articles of our rival schools. I guess I couldn't ignore it in this case because I saw a single editor attempting to circumvent consensus by deleting relevant and sourced material in a deceptive manner (using multiple IPs and phony edit summaries). My bad. GarnetAndBlack ( talk) 08:29, 4 February 2016 (UTC)
I know you're passionate about this article, and I also know we've locked horns before. So, please forgive me for reverting you. Nevertheless, it was necessary. Clemson University has also achieved this classification, as proven by the cite that was provided. Perhaps more directly, it would be better to cite this. Regardless, Clemson does have this status, making USC not the only one. -- Hammersoft ( talk) 15:44, 6 May 2016 (UTC)

Hi GarnetAndBlack, it's been a while - I hope all is well. I've been working, in my copious spare time and along with several other things, on creating pages for various College World Series seasons. You can probably see that I've done several of my preferred programs, while also trying to create them for CWS runners-up. I wondered if you'd be interested in creating season pages for Carolina's CWS appearances - particularly the 3 remaining seasons when they finished as runners-up? 2012 already has a page, thanks largely to you. Would you have interest or time to work on this? I'm also dropping a note on Scrooster's page, as I know he's an avid Gamecock baseball fan. Billcasey905 ( talk) 09:04, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for the edits you did regarding USC. I just edited a heavy non-academically toned pro Tarheel writing of the USC-UNC rivalry series. College related articles in general made me realize some of the downfalls of Wikipedia. I was the first to add an NFL MVP quarterback (Rich Gannon not Joe Flacco) to the University of Delawares article which listed much less relevant people as “notable alumni” your multi year crusade against Clemson, Bulldog, and Tarheel spam and bias is something I respect, go gamecocks! By the way, I try and contribute to Wikipedia by adding my own images from my camera, if there’s a particular rivalry series you want photo record of for wikipedia at home I can try to bring my camera.

How's that not the case--just because one grandstand was completely rebuilt? HangingCurve Swing for the fence 01:29, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
Does anyone in Columbia or Raleigh consider this to be a real rivalry: NC State–South Carolina football rivalry? The creator has a long history of creating articles for very marginal CFB "rivalries," several of which have been deleted at AfD. Another editor has PROD'ed it, and if the creator removes the PROD tag, I plan to submit it for AfD. Any objections, sir? Dirtlawyer1 ( talk) 03:45, 16 November 2015 (UTC)
Hey there. Sorry about reverting your edits here [4]. You're absolutely right, and I didn't check the talk page. My apologies. Boomer Vial Holla 10:45, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
Please show me where in any of those SPIs that I was ever definitively linked with the IP editor in question. But you do whatever you feel you have to do, I just think it's rather ironic that you are having the wool pulled over your eyes by a user who has admitted to using IPs to edit without logging in. As far as I understand it, that is the very definition of sock puppetry. And I see that this clearly experienced user with a brand-new account is trying to pull the same con on another editor by claiming that the reason for this shiny new account is because a cyberstalker had their e-mail address [6], a piece of information that isn't even used to establish an account on Wikipedia. But hey, if none of these things is a red flag for you, then just go on swallowing everything you're being spoon fed. Also, did you read the admin's closing comments in that SPI from Jan 2012? Looks like someone else noticed something strange about a relatively new account (only 76 edits) complaining ""How many more years is this going to continue?" and then bringing up WP:BOOMERANG. The user who filed that report replied with an excuse about losing their prior account due to "having to move/death in the family". Sound familiar? If not, let me spell it out…ThomasCWolfe and JustAGal2 are most likely the same person. If anyone has a cyberstalker here, sadly I think it's me. Oh, and to address your assertion that my edits match up closely to the IP editor in question, I think my single revert of the Clemson Football article was my first edit there since March 2014. I've tried to avoid the articles dealing solely with Clemson ever since I and another editor had a dispute that led to both of us getting a 6-month break from editing the articles of our rival schools. I guess I couldn't ignore it in this case because I saw a single editor attempting to circumvent consensus by deleting relevant and sourced material in a deceptive manner (using multiple IPs and phony edit summaries). My bad. GarnetAndBlack ( talk) 08:29, 4 February 2016 (UTC)
I know you're passionate about this article, and I also know we've locked horns before. So, please forgive me for reverting you. Nevertheless, it was necessary. Clemson University has also achieved this classification, as proven by the cite that was provided. Perhaps more directly, it would be better to cite this. Regardless, Clemson does have this status, making USC not the only one. -- Hammersoft ( talk) 15:44, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
Hello, FYI, Founders Park in [[Islamorada, FL is an actual place, e.g., https://www.bing.com/search?q=trip+advisor+islamorada+foundres+park&pc=MOZI&form=MOZLBR. Froid ( talk) 19:05, 30 May 2016 (UTC)
The tables I'm inserting aren't spams. Supermathguy68 ( talk) 10:46, 10 August 2016 (EDT)
I'm not edit warring. That table is not indiscriminate, so stop reverting my editing. Supermathguy68 ( talk) 8:45, 4 September 2016 (EDT)
GarnetAndBlack, be the better person and start the discussion on the talk page. Y'all are edit warring and have violated the three-revert rule. I'm about to notify an administrator if it doesn't stop. I've warned the other user, now I'm warning you. Thanks, Corkythe hornetfan (ping me) 20:15, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
Hi GarnetAndBlack, it's been a while - I hope all is well. I've been working, in my copious spare time and along with several other things, on creating pages for various College World Series seasons. You can probably see that I've done several of my preferred programs, while also trying to create them for CWS runners-up. I wondered if you'd be interested in creating season pages for Carolina's CWS appearances - particularly the 3 remaining seasons when they finished as runners-up? 2012 already has a page, thanks largely to you. Would you have interest or time to work on this? I'm also dropping a note on Scrooster's page, as I know he's an avid Gamecock baseball fan. Billcasey905 ( talk) 09:04, 21 June 2018 (UTC)
I undid your revert of the UofSC Gamecock Football page. The name currently accepted by the university is "UofSC," and as such, the Wikipedia pages should reflect this.

LOL. And sourced. https://www.espn.com/college-football/game/_/gameId/401282152
Thank you for the edits you did regarding USC. I just edited a heavy non-academically toned pro Tarheel writing of the USC-UNC rivalry series. College related articles in general made me realize some of the downfalls of Wikipedia. I was the first to add an NFL MVP quarterback (Rich Gannon not Joe Flacco) to the University of Delawares article which listed much less relevant people as “notable alumni” your multi year crusade against Clemson, Bulldog, and Tarheel spam and bias is something I respect, go gamecocks! By the way, I try and contribute to Wikipedia by adding my own images from my camera, if there’s a particular rivalry series you want photo record of for wikipedia at home I can try to bring my camera.
