  • Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com.

Questions About The Incontinent Thread And Moved Posts

Well... unless people shit in other threads again... you'll be fine.

I don't understand why that thread even exists. If you want to get rid of posts without making a thread for the topic, why not just delete them? It just makes for a confusing mess.

There will always be a thread shitting itself somewhere. It's just part of the cycle of life. Threads are born, they mature, and then they go senile. The treatment isn't fixing the problem, it's just dumping it in a big pile of senility where everyone is shitting everywhere and no one knows where it begins or ends, because everyone's too mixed together.

Need to eat more prunes.

Either way, the point stands. It's basically a trash heap for content. Why? It's just as much work to move them to a new thread as it is to move them there.

It's a joke thread that's trying real hard to be real, but it's just a mess now. :(

Best way to avoid that is to create a new thread and say "here... let's talk about this here."
 
The Incontinent Thread is just a place for individual derails to burn themselves out, that isn't the threads in question. It doesn't have an overarching theme, because it's not supposed to.

And now this is a derail too, which is certainly very meta.

If you make the thread, and post in the thread being derailed to move convo elsewhere... guess what will happen... the convo gets moved.

So we've gone from me questioning the purpose of a trash thread when it takes just as much effort as making a new one, to you telling me to make said new thread myself for you to move posts into.

But it's still the staff deciding to jam all the derails into a trash thread, not me.

Now I'm just confused. I guess if you are really insistent on me starting the threads for you for some reason, then send me a message when you need it done.
 
Well, since I'm rather derailing the Stupid Shit On SB thread with my questions, I figured I should make a proper thread before my posts got dumped into the very thread I'm having issues with.

Can I ask one of the mods to move the relevant posts between myself and Biigoh here?

Starts around here.
