You might want to seek the services of a proctologist and surgeon.

While we're on the subject though... I haven't yet gotten the new GW2 expansion. You wouldn't happen to have a spare lying around would ya, sport? It would be much appreciated.

Go play Throne and Liberty, it's free to play and pay to win...since you are retired and have no mortgage on your log cabin any more, you can become a "whale" and buy all the epic loot and dominate the players who are poor.

Lol. BF has to bump dead threads just to look busy because the twig and pig cretin combo killed off any remaining interest in that toilet

Quote from: Aylana on October 07, 2024, 02:27:09 PMPeople have scrambled eggs for breakfast not scrambled threads...I will not waste time searching through the big book of  "passwords of the internet" just to log into a site to find fucked up threads and people celebrating the fact that the threads are all fucked up.

That is fucked up...if you see a website doing that it usually means the site is going to become a blog and then go 404.



Not so.

Random necro thread parades happen at FRW's all the time and for the most part, people only leave when they die.

Couple years ago some guy did that on Diablo and then couldn't get a match because he was too overpowered -

What dead threads get bumped here by mods? That tranny must be talking about BF.

Lets bump this in a few months.

Do you use RO water...reverse osmosis?

Quote from: Aylana on October 07, 2024, 11:57:24 AMI was wondering if it is common practice to instruct your mods to bump a page worth of 3 year old threads every 3 months or so...why, I don't know, as a way to increase activity and user engagement maybe.

Gary said doing this would be counterproductive and actually turn off people and make them less likely to post... the strange thing was he was the only one who thought that. If inmates started decorating their cells with feces would the guards be disgusted or give them a standing ovation. When did vandalizing your own forum become a way to increase post count. Can anyone explain this bizzarro behavior or is a new alternative to turning a website with low ratings into a Blog. 
I think you mean existing threads about a topic that is not dead yet. Rather than start a new thread each time the topic is in the news, I will post in the existing thread. It makes it easier to find that way.

I don't know why you care since cross forum gossip is the only topic that grabs your attention. I don't recall you ever contributing to the tread about Trudeau's failed green fantasies for example. So, don't worry about it.

Aylana is talking about a practice recently on display at BF where someone poasts a reply of "bump" in some very old and inactive threads. No new actual much less relevant content; just "bump".

The threads aren't invigorated with new life; they're just zombies shambling to the top of the thread list again.

If he has a problem with that happening there, he should be posting about it on BF.

People have poasted their opinions there, but are generally met with "if you don't like it go somewhere else".

I guess they did.
Mission accomplished? LoL
