webcastr shill?
 

Do we have a webcastr shill in our midst?

Chyeah. I figured everyone had just decided to ignore him.

I'm clueless.

whut?

I figured that from the first post he was warming up for a big spamming. So far I'm reading him as lame, but he could work his way up to annoying.

Exactly.

Shhh, here he comes.

Shhhhhh. Lets be really quiet and maybe it will go away.


Either that or we call out the dogs.

Those aren't dogs, those are sea bass.

A what?

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shill

A shill is an associate of a person selling goods or services or a political group, who pretends no association to the seller/group and assumes the air of an enthusiastic customer. The intention of the shill is, using crowd psychology, to encourage others unaware of the set-up to purchase said goods or services or support the political group's ideological claims. Shills are often employed by confidence artists. In the UK the term plant is also used.

Thanks I knew what a shill was. I was confused on the webcastr part. So what is he trying to get people to look at his web videos or something?

every post links to a video hosting site. I doubt the vids are his, (s)he's just sending us there.

Gotcha - this new internet thingy is pretty neat.

We ain't one-at-a-timin' here. We're MASS communicating!

PS could we cut off his access to the little thread taggy thingys? I really don't believe every vid he tries to shove down our throats warrants a "LOOK AT ME" yield sign looking thing. I love me some smilies, but I hate those things: "look how important my thread is compared to yours.":headshake
