From the incredibly inane and seemingly endless trolling thread ‘[Rantings about stupid nuclear reporting, and I want to bitchslap somebody, also other crap](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=602177&page=29)’: > [@Rantings about stupid nuclear reporting, and I want to bitchslap somebody, also other crap](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/rantings-about-stupid-nuclear-reporting-and-i-want-to-bitchslap-somebody-also-other-crap/576077/1424): > > When I first read that I wasn’t sure, but I have to agree now.

This is pretty much a good representative sample from the thread in question. Here FXM is trolling for people to pay attention to him by quoting a post made by levdrakon pages and pages ago (not that I’m going to go back and see exactly where Lev posted that in a 29 page cluster fuck of a thread). On the page in question, FXM’s posts are about 80% of all the posts on the page, with a few guest appearances from notable posters such as gonzo, and a couple one off posts by a few others. It’s almost exclusively the FXM show, and has been for most of the thread. I’d say if there is one posting style I REALLY hate (besides the drive by link from gonzomax) it’s this. Why the mods continue to allow this bullshit is a mystery to me. -XT --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/posting-styles-you-hate/601999)._
