[serious] Off Topic Moderation Input - Part 2

[Alexander's Horse]

And why is my font so small on the phone.

[Bin Kenobi]

Does every thread getting ****ted up with a crowd of tedious, unfunny DL's qualify as a problem yet? Because its barely worth opening threads at the moment in all honesty.

Many of the DLs are no more tedious than certain OLs I can think of.

[Bin Kenobi]

One of your less tedious posts. Congratulations.

[kentonio]

One of your less tedious posts. Congratulations.

Ah you seem to have made the childlike error of thinking I give a **** what you think. Perhaps if you posted under your real name rather than yet another crappy DL, we could have a proper conversation.

Ah you seem to have made the childlike error of thinking I give a **** what you think. Perhaps if you posted under your real name rather than yet another crappy DL, we could have a proper conversation.

And you have made at least two childlike errors:

1) Replying to claim not to giving a **** what I think

2) Talking to a crappy DL

3) Posting in a childlike and tedious manner

Next I predict you will compound your childishness by refusing to reply to me

You'll have to wait until after this post actually. I don't have some automatic hate of DLs. When they're well done and used sparingly they can be very funny. Unfortunately recently they are neither.

Over the last week or two I've found I just come here and read threads less, because repeatedly they end up being threadjacked by a couple of DL's swapping boring in-character nonsense, or one DL making post after post desperately trying to get someone to reply.

It's a bit sad and needy to be honest. If you want attention, try actually being interesting. Bye for now.

[Bin Kenobi]

Aha, you childishly fell into my trap by replying when I said you wouldn't.

FTFY

Now I like the avatar. Good one time joke. But that's about it. I would rather have an interaction with a poster that I history with then a low brow joke of one.
Do you feel that you have to post under an fake persona to be funny? I hope not, because it's not succeeding.

[Bin Kenobi]

The more you and Kentonio protest, the more I'm convinced it's succeeding.

Very much this. At this point I come here only out of habit. But of all my bad habits, right now this one feels like it'll be the easiest one to break.

Succeeding at what?
That you're a one trick boring copycat DL? Yes you're succeeding at that. (I still think the avatar is clever)
That you got someone to notice and respond to you. Yes, you've succeeded at that also. Good for you. If you need that type of thing.
Wouldn't it be a better goal to get people to respond to your real login?

And as others have already pointed out, it's not adding ANYTHING to the discussion.

[giblets]

Ban Sava and make him use his unfunny DL all the time

[Bin Kenobi]

How do you know it's my DL?

[rah]

and why should we care? Or is that part of the supposed allure to you?
