And while I'm at it, quit fucking up GQ

Ok, now that everybody has got their own snide, ever so funny little comments out of the way

Dream on, fucketyfuck.

So really, there are only two forums worth shit on here. GQ and the Pit. The rest is just a waste of space, but it keeps the tards busy, so I guess they do serve some purpose.

But as with the Pit, people are fucking up GQ. I don’t care about people asking stupid questions, that’s fine, though honestly, half of them can be answered with about 20 seconds of googling. But whatever.

I am really tired of these people who keep trying to answer questions in GQ when they have no fucking idea what they are talking about.

Legal threads. “Well, it makes sense to me that the answer to your question is X*”. The answer to your fucking question is not X. It’s X, combined with Y and maybe a little bit of Z, but probably not A, which is what every dickbag who doesn’t understand the law thinks.

(* X is always fair use, adverse posession, or some other theory that the layman thinks is a sort of magic solution to every problem. Fuck off with your fair use, you don’t even understand how it works.)

Science threads. We have a bunch of physics grad students, doctors, engineers, and whatever else. Some of them even understand the science. So when someone asks a question about relativity, maybe you shouldn’t throw in the knowledge you got from listening to the books-on-tape version of “A Brief History of Time”.

Stop posting your WAGs. If it’s a WAG, don’t post it. Simple. And read the fucking rules again, because there are not supposed to be joke posts until after the question is answered.

GQ is about fighting ignorance. If you’re not an expert on a topic, and there are experts on that topic, make sure you know what the fuck you are talking about. I guarantee you that some idiot will read the first answer in a thread about marrying hamsters, and the first reply will be some WAG about how it’s a 13th amendment issue. And that idiot will listen to the other idiot and spread the word that the 13th amendment refers to hamster fucking, without paying attention to the rest of the posters, who actually know what the hell they are talking about, because it’s much easier to just confirm what we think we know than to wade through the garbage to find the truth.

So quit posting more dross to sift through in GQ just because it makes you feel big to throw a WAG out there. You’re just being an asshole.

Well, my WAG is that it’s fair use to post this rant on here, but you might want to be careful of the implications of the 13th amendment.

@bucketybuck

Ok, now that everybody has got their own snide, ever so funny little comments out of the way, does anybody want to comment on the quite valid assertation that yes, GQ actually is diluted by mundane pointless musings that rarely answer the asked questions directly?

Sure, ivn1188’s right, and he’s continuing a long tradition of BBQ threads bitching about exactly this problem.
Invariably there are some who get butthurt over such threads. That’s OK, their butts’ll get over the pain eventually.

Man, that wipes out over half my posts! :mad:

My bet is its the urethra. Flames shooting out the urethra tend to make one very testy.

They can also bake one’s testes.

Of course, ivn1188, you DO have the option of leaving and making your own board since we do not reach your lofty standards. It is not like it hasn’t happen before. It would save us you posting your butthurt RO in the Pit all day.

[ivn1188]

Can we get over this tired “If you don’t like it, leave?” I see thread upon thread heaping scorn and outrage over Republicans or health care or whatever the latest outrage is. I’ve even seen threads pitting Rush Limbaugh for saying “If you don’t like this country, then you can go somewhere else”.

Yet every time one of the heads of the collective mediocrity thinks I’ve gone too far this time, by god, they post these inane suggestions that if I don’t like their worthless contributions I should leave. No, that’s not how it works. We don’t leave the U.S. when the healthcare bill sinks. We don’t leave boards that have some modicum of value because a bunch of hammytrolls who feel the need for recognition are driven to post a bunch of pathos-laden threads about the tragic dorito shortage of '05, and how they were forced to tune into Fox news so they could stoke up some passion in their otherwise dull and empty lives between the LARP sessions.

Yes, Death of Rats, I’m talking about you. You are so incompetent that you didn’t even realize or care that this is the thread about fuckups in GQ. You are, as far as I can tell, innocent of that particular foible, as you don’t even post in GQ. So, why the fuck are you in here, telling me to leave the board? I’ll tell you why. It’s because it makes you feel warm inside to know you have all these little internet friends.

Seriously, pack it the fuck up and post your stupid one-line shit in the other thread. This is a thread about a forum where people aren’t debating the merits of Elrond vs some other fucking hobbit shit.

In [thread=539814] this thread about helicopter noises [/thread] ivn1188 offers up an assessment of the physics involved, including the phrase ‘asked and answered’ only to be gently corrected by flight, a PhD in aerospace engineering.

I wouldn’t usually comment on this, because I don’t mind people taking a shot at an answer when they obviously know something about it, but in this case I had to point it out. God forbid that ivn1188 should look like one of those

@ivn1188

@ivn1188

Not really butthurt. Just reasonable enough to know that the people who this is directed at are not competent enough to realize this is aimed at them. Therefore this thread, and the other, actually provide more value in the retributive sense than in the persuasive sense.

What an arrogant little protuberance you are.

Yeah, good job on catching that. Did you also read the post where I admitted I was incorrect, and that I had based my post on a misunderstanding of Flight’s linked post?

Of course, I’m sure you think you’ve scored a telling point. :rolleyes:

In other words, you jumped in before knew what you were on about. As I said, I wouldn’t normally pick these nits, but it was too rich to pass up.

@Blaster_Master

You see, us non-tards either spend all our time in GQ discussing our disertation topics or expressing our righteous indignation of the government and that asshole that cut us off on the way to work in the morning.

No, complaining about that stuff is ‘stupid shit’ - the only thing you’re allowed to do in the Pit is flame other posters.

Complaining about your life, or the government, or anything else other than other posters on this board, goes in the useless forums.

[Cicero]

Is tard a sub group of charter member? Can I join or are you just one?

[LurkMeister]

Maybe TPTB could start selling special “tard” memberships. Anyone willing to buy one is permitted to be an ass and post any stupid thing they want without being Pitted for it. Or maybe they are given a stickied Pit thread where people can point at them and laugh.

Will that come in a ‘platinum plus’ edition for those of us who are really special?
