ATTN mods... someone stop this guy
 
Can someone please do something about this post-whoring dickhead reviving all these old threads. It's a bloody mess in here. :mad:

Terrh 06-05-02 08:22 AM

I agree! JEEESUS!!!!!
normally I wouldn't care but they're all POINTLESS posts and soley for the purpose of post whoring!

peejay 06-05-02 08:29 AM

I logged in this morning and nearly crapped myself at all the long-dead threads resurrected!

Oh well, at least I got to again see the pics of my bridgeported center housing and Max7's widebody :D

I think he went back to 8-13-01 and ressurected that day....

just about all the threads are from the same day. ARGH!

Terrh 06-05-02 09:00 AM

yes
hmm
august 13... hey!
I think that's the day that I got my fiero on the road

hotty 06-05-02 09:11 AM

take his keyboard and bash it over his f*cking head.... I thought I was a dumbass.

Post whoring is gay and wastes valuable disk space. Also gets in the way of more interesting threads/posts

Redwood 06-05-02 10:48 AM

It sucks ass, but the posts are pretty funny. It would appear his english is not perfect so it's humorous without any effort on his part. Maybe he doesn't understand that we don't give a sh*t about threads from last August anymore.

82transam 06-05-02 11:11 AM

who are you guys talking about?

1st7heaven 06-05-02 11:14 AM

Looks like kyleklye:mad:

82transam 06-05-02 11:14 AM

should have scrolled down farther. i see what all of you are talking about. yea stop him, it's annoying, what an idiot, that one post is from last august, why are threads that old still around to be responded to. They should be closed but still available to read.

Acuspeed 06-05-02 11:37 AM

The situation is being handled, thank you for bringing it to our attention.

After reviewing many of his posts, I don't think he is trying to be malicious about it (at least from the ones I read), but we have contacted him in regard to posting habits.

As for the old threads being available, they always have been. It's the same reason that when someone does a search, they can still reply to a topic even if it was originally posted quite some time ago. I think it's a nice feature really, but that's just me. As far as I know, the admins would have to look into changing that...

wow, we're a vicious group in the morning aren't we? :)

no more coffee for some of you.

Felix Wankel 06-05-02 12:20 PM

I saw that too. I thought those thread titles seemed familiar...

RotoHead 06-05-02 12:29 PM

I don't think it is the idea of not supposed to be able to drag up old threads, it is te dragging up of an entire month that was around 10 months ago. But, if he was not meaning to be malicous about it, that is cool. Just an odd sight for a Tuesday morning eh?

peejay 06-05-02 02:28 PM

The same hting happens on Usenet... you get someone whose netfeed maintains a long history and when they start reading they read the old articles first... and they start replying to 3, 4, 5 month old articles (which is EONS old in Usenet where many newsservers only maintain 2 or 3 days' worth) and it gets annoying.

I agree it's not a BAD thing that we have access to the old articles, and sometimes replying to an old article is warranted... but sometimes people don't know the proper netiquette :)

abeomid 06-05-02 05:58 PM

well I don't have any problems with somebody bringing up old posts, BUT NOT 30 of them in one day. I mean all the posts that were recent and USEFUL now moved to 2nd and 3rd page and nobody will even bother to read about them.

that's just my 2cents

MIKE-P-28 06-05-02 06:34 PM

A few of them were ok, but the Ebay one with the wheels ? :wtf:

mar3 06-05-02 08:03 PM
