And if they're drinking an Obnoxious beer??? Ha!

It's all good! I'll try not to be obnoxious...

Was it Joey that used to bump random shit at an ADD pace? I remember getting on here early one morning and seeing all these random threads with the last poster KurtCobain. That might have been the time when Bob Dole went on his Lock-A-Thread Rampage. Heh.

Sounds like a blueballs special.

I don't know anything about Evolve27 so I don't have a comment about his banning.

I have two other relevant comments/questions for Phobia (or another moderator) though:

1. Before this "ban for bump" rule came about, it was my understanding that when you had something to post, it was polite (but not mandatory) to first see if there was a relevant existing thread in which to post it before starting a new thread. Baby Lee's bump about Fred Willard a great example. Is this preferable or should we err on the side of creating a new thread?

2. Could we either do away with the infraction system or start banning people who infract others for something that the mods determine isn't really a bannable offense?

Bearcat's head is going to explode when he reads this.

Uh oh. I didn't read the whole thread before posting it. I guess I'm in trouble now.

That's not how Jeopardy works.

Don't have any idea what any of this means. Why don't you just type your point out in English so I can address it if necessary?

[patteeu]

OK, I read the thread now, and I'd still like a clarification on this rather than Bearcat's assurance that mods sometimes don't take notice of these things.

Beyond that, if I've been away for a week or two, come back and check my subscribed threads and find 4 threads (which are old at that point) that I want to post a relevant reply in, am I going to get banned?

Yes. The best thing you can do is start a new thread for each topic.

Perhaps you should go away for a week or two and then give it a shot.
