Good point. The mods often combine threads started by the same poster. My all time favorite was when Susma Rio Sep had 3 threads open at once in GD about fornicating priests and anal sex. One of the mods combined the threads, suggesting that the topic was “not so nuanced” as to need 3 seperate threads…
I guess this could be considered a **preemptive strike ** to an imminent threat of future Bush-bashing threads, as well as an attack against large **caches ** of existing Threads of Mass Bush-bashing.
Who said anything about shutting up? Limiting the number of threads opened in the Pit is pretty reasonable.
Let’s face it, GWB isn’t exactly Mr. Popularity around here – if he does something Pit-worthy, there’s going to be a thread opened about it, even if Reederdoes have to spend twenty minutes hopping from foot to foot waiting for it to appear.
And the ones along the lines of “Bush wore brown shoes with a blue suit! How long must we endure this?!” will hardly be missed, in my opinion. I don’t like water in my vitriol.
:waves hand: Don’t mention my “unlampoonable” thread in MPSIMS. These aren’t the threads you’re looking for.
And we all know by now that premptive strikes are a flagrant violation of international law, and that Lynn ought to be bound over to the ICJ post haste…
Has anyone ever wondered what the inside Reeder’s home might look like? Walls, papered over every square inch with news clippings, all highlighted and underlined to show Bush’s evil actions as president. Pictures and pictures of “W” with profanity scrawled across them, some with bullseyes drawn on “W’s” face. Magazines stacked to the ceiling with pages cut out. Empty bags of pretzles and chips, pizza boxes scattered on the floor. A lonely niche with a picture of Gore, lovingly framed… a single candle lit in front of it. A first edition copy of Earth in the Balance set on a small alter…
Can anyone imagine the throws of anguish, the teeth gnashing, the hair pulling that will ensue if Bush wins in November? AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
JUST KIDDING!! Reeder is a Bush basher extraordinaire, but if you ever encounter him in an other forum taking about regular stuff, he’s a perfectly reasonable guy.
This is not the same as combining threads or limiting a poster to one active thread in a forum at a time. Either of those applied to Reeder would be fine. This is different. Reeder’s only outpost in the Pit is this pathetic joke of a thread. And while many would argue that Reeder himself is a joke, I don’t think the administration should be forcing users to limit their discussion on a certain topic to a snarky bullshit thread such as this.
Well, she damn sure labeled me a “plagarist” just because I inadvertently omitted an attribution. And, I’m not allowed to say “bite me” although I think, mind you, think, that “fuck off” is ok.
