That has already been defined as "Snaking"

Now why would I do that?

Are you just making unfounded assumptions?

Or are you trying to use passive aggressive control techniques?

Or (I’ll give you a break), WTF were you trying to do???

Any reason this is MPSIMS?

Two choices here.

  1. He posted in the wrong forum by accident.

  2. He is trying to counter Dex’s prediction that he’d start a Pit thread by starting a rant in MPSIMS.

Pick your pony. I’ve got $5 on number two, and am taking side bets at six-to-one for the number of posts until this gets moved. Any takers?

I’ve got anybody for ten-to-one on #1.

I’ll $50 at six-to-one for, umm, 8 posts. Extra thirty on a four point spread.

I work in betting and I have no clue what’s going on.

6

Neither do I.

Hey! This thread looks a bit similar to this thread that I started! I beat you here SnakeSpirit. :stuck_out_tongue:

You obviously meant this for The Pit.

Well fuck. Now I owe Ilsa_Lund 300 bucks.

Oh well…you’ll have to catch me first. :stuck_out_tongue:

And you claim not to know what’s going on, eh? I think we’ve all just been hustled! :smiley:

They had to change the name of the educational periodical/website/TV series Star Hustler to Star Gazer because the word hustler was blocked by many library’s and school’s filtering software.

Now You Know…

I’ll add it to the list of Usele…full things to know.

I think it’s this one.

Predicting negative behavior by a fellow Doper was defined at one time as snaking. Repremands from a mod were forthcoming.

Why is Snakespirit allowed to break that rule and I’m not? :smiley:

Actually – and this is not a reference to any one poster – the expression snaking seems more descriptive on the process of moving a topic all over the board, from forum to forum. An example would be…

If you read the FAQ and rules for the board, complaints about modding/admin decisions belong in the pit.

But you posted a complaint in ATMB under the guise of asking a technical question about the board.

Nevermind that the ‘technical question’ was already answered in regard to Otto’s complaint (which was originally valid, but he overreacted when the mods in question didn’t see the lack of tight consistency in moving one thread but not another, which caused the CK to overreact… everyone got too emotional, yes, even CK).

And so, you broke the rules by complaining in ATMB by asking an answered question in what has been an emotional tiff. Thus, the prediction by CK that you will protest here in the Pit that your question in ATMB was justified.

Now that we’re in the Pit, let me say to you, stop playing innocent. Put down the spoon and get away from the pot.

It appears we have some consistancy!

Holy Something, Batman!

Watch out for look!ninjas - he/she (aka E) is an emerging cognitive force in the ‘doper board!’

Welcome. We have many clocks that need cleaning here.

No kidding.
