Still, for those who wont, whining and fussing about it does nothing for your cause. It just doesnt. All that method has done is annoy people and caused further friction and probably an escalation in the picking by those who want to get yall mad.

And that's a personal choice, but it certainly sends the signal that you don't respect their request and begs to ask the question why should any Cajuns fan respect you afterwards? You see, respect is a two way street and once someone has been educated in the reasons for the request, but chooses to knowningly insult or create anomosity with Cajun fans, then they are culpable as any UL fan making these threads intolerable. And you guys, the moderators are also culpable in allowing a double standard to exist on this board in lecturing Cajun fans, but not holding those that instigate the name threads accountable. I have no problem with anyone calling us Cajuns, but the ulala, lafayette, or ull stuff is crap. If people really want to coexist on this board, then Cajuns is the middle ground. But those that choose to use the above mention names are only here to disrespect Cajun fans intentionally and those posters will be treated with no respect period. This is not going to change anytime soon.
