Let's replace "Thank you for posting"

Instead of hijacking kambuckta’s thread, I’ll start a new one.

Everybody has seen the SDMB message “Thank you for posting! You will now be taken to you post. If the administrators are moderating all posts…” yadda yadda.

Considering how Mudane and Pointless some of my posts are, I sometimes expect to see:

or maybe in Great Debates:

If you could customize “Thank you for posting”, what would you change it to?

“Your post is important to us. A certified hamster will be with you just as soon as a space in the server queue opens up. Please do not put a hammer through your computer monitor. Thank you for your patience. Your post is important to us.”

You wasted your time and our hamsters, posting * that * ?

the mum response

Are you going to post that as it is? Look at those spelling mistakes and your grammer- don’t even get me started. I’m very dissapointed in you!

Oh for goodness sakes. Do you realize that is the SEVENTH post you’ve made in the last 20 minutes? Don’t you have something better to do? Don’t you have a REAL LIFE? You do understand that NOBODY is actually reading any of your witty erudite comments don’t you? Sheesh.
Oh, and the hamsters reckon you suck too.

Some possibilities:

"Thank you for posting. Dankon pri via afisxado. Merci pour donner. " Repeated in as many other languages as possible, incliuding Tibetan, Klingon, and Egyptian Heiroglyphic, in itty-bitty Unicode text.

“<giggle> You really wanna post that? <bouncebounce>”

“Is that your final answer?” :smiley:

“Hey! Can’t you leave us alone for even one minute? We’re trying to take a bath here!”

“MESSAGE RECEIVED AND CODED FOR STORAGE. X11-T”

*Codewords authenticated.

Auto-destruct sequence initiated.

Board meltdown in 10… 9… 8…*

“Shouldn’t you be working?”

You will still never catch up to handy. :wink:

Thank you for posting Handy
(odds are it will be right)

Thank you for posting, your typo-filled double-post should appear in a few minutes, assuming that it doesn’t time out.

I’m still snickering at this.

Heh. Where’s my pelet?

“Thank you for posting, even though your post has contributed to our growing bandwith problem and you probably didn’t have anything useful to say that hasn’t been said by ten other posters.”

“Did you try Google first?”

Yep, that post will kill the thread.

Cite?

You’re posting? What’s the occasion?

Are you sure you don’t want to preview a few more times?

I vote for:

“stileBOT has become furiously angry!!!”

What?

Oh…wrong boards. Sorry… :wink:

Sometimes when the hamsters are running low on caffeine, I expect to see:


Hello heresiarch.
I learned a song, would you like to hear it?

Daisy, Daisy
Give me you answer do

How about:
“I’m sorry Dave, I’m afraid I can’t do that. This message board is too important to allow you to jeapordize it.”

or

“Great. That post did it. You just killed one of the hamsters. I hope it was worth it.”
