Twickster apparantly doesn't allow posters to defend themseles against threadshitting

@Green_Bean

So, what’s it called when someone posts the exact same thing twice?

Thread-twinning.

@Colibri

etv78, you never seem to learn from experience in this. You start threads and when they don’t go exactly as you want them to you start becoming obnoxious to other posters (and sometimes end up getting warned for it). If you find a few off-topic posts intended as jokes to be so intolerable, you shouldn’t be starting threads.

Especially in Cafe Society.

It’s like déjà vu all over again!

Thread-deucing.

Dementia? That’s my excuse.

Whoa!

maybe a glitch in the matrix, it seamed to be the same thing, but grand winos post appeared with extra info, the agents are on their way, I recommend leaving via the bathroom.

FFS. If the entire thread had been like that, I’d see being annoyed. But it was like three very brief comments, surrounded by substantive answers to your questions. If you had just rolled with it, your thread would still be on track. Instead you got aggro and personal with people, and then they got aggro and personal with you, and your thread is in danger of being ruined. It’s like you set out the nice china in your house and then started pro-wrestling with the guy who clinked his teacup too hard on the saucer.

etv, you should read this post again. And again. Because it (especially the analogy) describes your behavior in many threads (especially your own) perfectly. If you don’t really care (because, you know, message board), at least try to see how it might be applicable to you in your desired career as an educator.

Thread-deucing.

Even better.

This is the best laugh I’ve had all day. Thanks LHOD!

Hey, it’s been a while since we had a good twickster thread in ATMB!

Unfortunately, this isn’t one either.

Why do you hate handicapped people?

[Green_Bean]

You have it backwards, Ambi. He’s advocating rolling.

@GrandWino

My history of warnings is pretty laughable if you look into it for more than 2 seconds.

Laugh all you want. But you’re one of the last people who should be advocating that someone else should be banned.

Who’s the very last?

Prolly me.

… people who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.

That was before bullet proof glass.

@Morgenstern

That’s right. As I always say: Post twice to show you are serious. If anyone disagrees, post the exact same thing a third time because the only explanation is they didn’t understand the first two times.

Bi-Poster Disorder.

That sounds right.

[Guinastasia]

etv78, you’ve already been suspended for this kind of thing once – do really want to commit suicide by mod? Think about it. And then think about it some more.

[Smeghead]

@etv78

WTF, Twickster, am I not allowed to steer threads back on track, and call out the hijackers? If not, good to know.

Are you a mod? No? Then of COURSE you’re not allowed. Duh.
