Hey, you guys are pigs.

Things with innocuous titles get almost no views compared to the replies while sordid threads get incredible view to reply ratios.

3.07 percent of the viewers posted. Less posts? No, way more viewers. You people are pigs.

now this is where it gets interesting. Luckily, I’m a brilliant mathematician or it would lack credibility when I reveal that you fools have accidentally revealed your perverted, s&m bestiality cravings.

Observe.

normally this would just indicate some sort of personal issue, but when one realizes that it’s comparable to the number of people who habitually view the SEX POSTS without replying… why, you people are worse than farmers!

I don’t understand why the nasty threads get less views than some of the no sense ones. But personally I like to go to the perverted threads. Some of the things people say are just priceless.

You have a (gasp) Girlfriend?

[sub]wow, that must hurt[/sub]

heheheheheHeHeHeHAHAHAHAHA’
BWAAAAHAAAAA

Ok, thats really funny. Coldfire, you are a bad, bad man.

7

I’m not sure what it says about me that I scurried in here all excited to read about someone’s stamp collection and to talk about mine.

sigh

It means your just like me Cranky!

coldfire, you magnificent bastard. You win this round, but there’ll be others.

(the joke, for those who didn’t see it earlier, was that the thread was originally called MY GIRLFRIEND’S NASTY SEX TOY)

10

I was just trying to figure out why this thread showed up in red text (indicating I’d already viewed it when I knew I hadn’t). Thanks, Coldfire!

We lurkers are worse than farmers!

You have entrapped me into posting here with your ultra-mundane thread title. I shall exact my revenge at a future date :stuck_out_tongue:

12

I’m glad you think I’m magnificent (albeit a bastard at that), but there was a hint of seriousness to my post as well. Since you’re not a mind reader, allow me to explain.

We’re not really fond of experiments like that. While you did a better job of it than the other guy who gave it a go yesterday, deliberately explicit thread titles just for the sake of high view counts/many responses are a no-no. I know in your case it was all about the phenomenon itself, and you even backed it up with some statistics. But we’d still rather not see you try it again.

lol he called you a “Stalinist”

What did he title his thread?

There’s a certain charm for this terminally boring title, I must confess. It’s somehow funnier when people actually wander in.

14

He called our now GQ Mod Dr. Matrix a Stalinist, actually. I believe he named his thread “Porn”.

15

Good christ, I only clicked on the thread because I wondered who on god’s earth would actually post about their stamp collection. Nice gag Coldie. Hehehe.

16

Only collected stamps from 1964 to 1979, huh? Any thematics? Cinderellas? FDCs, entires? How about miniature sheets – no, wait, getting the albums for those can be a curse.

Personally, I stopped actively collecting about 4 years ago. These days, the collection’s there to pay for the funeral when I die.

Oh.

You didn’t want someone posting about philately? Well, colour my whiskers.

16 posts and still no “philately will get you nowhere”?
