You totally missed the plot, but hey no surprise.
I give you bonus points for at least of all, not pretending you're some expert.
BTW, (look I figure you'll never know unless someone tells you) by Weekend Expert, I wasn't referring to those who become proficient at something, notably during their days off from work, but to those Imposters under the guise of a long time expert. The term, in my best guess is from Weak ended expert, but I don't know. I've only ever seen it used mid 90s, not long after there was a public explosion into the Internet joining certain groups and tried to fit in by being knowledgeable. Then again, I don't travel in those circles anymore. _________________ The important thing is knowing who owns the fence |

You know what I just realized? This isn't a new tactic! This is playing a damn STONE DEAF. Double fail. _________________

I've been observing here for a while now, and it seems to me that a lot of people try to post "tactics" and such for the sake of having something to post.
As others have said, this "tactic" is not a tactic at all.
But your first mistake was to use the word "ultimate" to describe it.
If you're already patting yourself on the back in the thread topic, people are probably going to attack your idea even if it has merit. _________________ To repeat what others have said, requires education, to challenge it,

I'm beginning to think all good tactics are descendents of one:
A combination of hidden knowledge and passive aggression.

Wrong. The ultimate tactic is to ignore somebody. Never respond to their posts. If an entire forum is fucked, you just ignore the entire forum, go find some people and have fun.
Living well really is the best revenge.
It is the ultimate tactic. Nobody can make you respond, nobody can keep you from "leaving", just ignoring the idiots of the world, or worse, the boring and insipid.
It is the ultimate victory, the impossible to defend against tactic. If you do it right, you end up enjoying life, while the losers (read: FXMasturbation) keep hoping you (read: Cheesus) will respond. If enough people use this tactic, the losers end up with a dead forum, just a few pathetic no lifers, complaining about how the place is dead.
I've watched it happen many times. |
I guess Cheesus beat you with your own tactic while you whine about him on a message board.
Oh snap!
You were always a huge retard, so kudos on fucking yourself in the ass with one of the threads he didn't delete (now I know why). LULZ? _________________ KILL IT WITH LOVE! |

Nah, if only he had just ignored the forum, but he didn't did he. The ? decided to delete a heap of threads, with the common theme having been started by various members. It's a pity, as most of the threads during the "quiet" period were started by the louder members and the rest of the forum participated. If only the ? had been fair and deleted as many of his own posts as he deleted of the rest of the main long term members. Yes, only 10, yes only 10!!, posts of his own he'd deleted that day. However, he also answered a problem that had been bugging me for the weeks leading up to it, that being a steady small deletion of to the total post count, having calculated for spam and "other type" removal. Just 10 that day? I then had a good look, and wondered for a bit, the clues fell into place. _________________ The important thing is knowing who owns the fence |
