Biggest flog on bigfooty, according to Grok

[sthmelb_dimmies]

The following is a direct response from Grok, without any pre-training

The term "flog" on BigFooty, particularly in the Bay 13 forum, is a playful but pointed insult used to describe posters who are seen as overly provocative, annoying, or prone to posting "drivel." Determining the "biggest flog" is subjective and a recurring theme in Bay 13 discussions, often culminating in the annual "Flog of the Year" (FOTY) award, where users nominate and vote for posters who embody this label through their behavior or posts.

### Historical Context and Notable Nominees
Based on available discussions, particularly from the Bay 13 "Flog of the Year" threads, here’s a breakdown of notable figures and trends up to 2025:

- Past Winners and Nominees: The FOTY award has a storied history, with winners like:
- DanWA (2018–2020, three-time winner), celebrated for consistent "floggish" behavior, such as relentless trolling or controversial takes.
- Footy Is The Win (2022), noted for provocative posts.
- Laphroaig (2021), Subaru (2017), J’AIDS (2015), and TazHawk15 (frequently nominated, e.g., 2023) are among other notable names.https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/thre...inations-in-this-thread-voting-later.1373865/
- In 2023, nominations included Elmer_Judd, Saveloy Rockstar, Triggered Tiger, Aristotle Pickett, and TazHawk15, with comments suggesting TazHawk15 is a perennial contender due to his persistent, polarizing presence.https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/thre...inations-in-this-thread-voting-later.1373865/
- Recent Activity (2024–2025): The 2024 FOTY thread mentions posters like Triggered Tiger and FITW (Footy Is The Win) as strong contenders, with accusations of spamming, meltdowns, or rigging votes for laughs. One user humorously claimed, “I’m just going to rig the result anyway,” highlighting the tongue-in-cheek nature of the contest.[]

### Characteristics of a "Biggest Flog"
Bay 13 users define a "flog" through behaviors like:

• Posting vacuous or repetitive threads (e.g., “a thread every 30 seconds with vacuous ideas”).[]
• Excessive use of the dislike button or personal attacks, though moderators discourage targeting individuals directly.
• Meltdowns or overreactions, often labeled as “melts” or “milts,” which are celebrated as peak flog behavior.
• Trolling rival fanbases with absurd or inflammatory takes, like comparing clubs to reality TV characters or spamming wooden spoon images.

### Who Stands Out in 2025?
While no definitive 2025 FOTY winner is confirmed in the available data, TazHawk15 emerges as a strong candidate for the "biggest flog" title due to:

• Repeated nominations across years, including 2023, for his provocative posts and ability to stir debates.[]
• A polarizing reputation, with threads debating his bans and potential reinstatement, suggesting he’s a lightning rod for attention.[]

Other potential contenders include Elmer_Judd and Triggered Tiger, who were nominated recently for their “floggish” antics, but TazHawk15’s longevity and consistent mentions give him an edge.https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/thre...inations-in-this-thread-voting-later.1373865/

### Why No Clear Answer?
The "biggest flog" is a moving target, as Bay 13 thrives on subjective rivalries and humor. The FOTY award is less about crowning a definitive winner and more about celebrating the forum’s chaotic spirit. Without real-time access to the 2025 FOTY results, TazHawk15 is a safe bet based on historical data, but the title could shift depending on new threads or meltdowns.

If you want me to check for more recent posts or specific users on BigFooty or X to narrow this down further, let me know! Alternatively, I can analyze a particular poster’s activity if you have someone in mind.[]

If forced to pick one regular Bay 13 poster to ban, I’d choose Elmer_Judd (previously known as davillablues). The reason is based on a 2021 thread that calls him out for being a sore loser who consistently melts down when Carlton loses, often directing personal attacks and negativity at others, including Geelong supporters. The post also mentions him being suspended on Twitter for bigoted behavior, suggesting a pattern of disruptive conduct across platforms.https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/bottom-30-bigfooty-posters.1282981/

Bay 13 thrives on banter, but his behavior seems to cross into toxic territory more than most, creating unnecessary hostility rather than the board’s usual witty, humorous vibe. That said, this is a forced choice—banning anyone is tough without direct evidence of rule-breaking, and the board’s culture generally tolerates flogs as part of the fun. If you’ve got someone else in mind, let me know, and I can check their track record!

I think in today's world, passionate is a more apt term for my rants than toxic

ChatGPT said:​

Elmer_Hauser is a prominent and polarizing figure on BigFooty's Bay13 forum, known for his provocative and often politically charged posts. His commentary frequently leans towards left-wing perspectives, which has led to clashes with other forum members. For instance, in a discussion, he responded to a user's comment with, "A hell that your God Trump created," indicating his critical stance on conservative figures .AFL News
His outspoken nature has not gone unnoticed; he was a leading candidate in the forum's "Flog of the Year 2024" poll, suggesting that many users find his posts contentious . Despite—or perhaps because of—his divisive presence, Elmer_Hauser remains an active participant in Bay13's vibrant and often confrontational community.

So….bay 13 is Elmo getting torched in 100% of threads instead of 85?
