Does anyone understand wanking practices? - Page 8

If they aren't impressed by cloning

I DEFINITELY wouldn't bring up SOUPFIG :P

W.HI.P · 04-03-2006, 01:04 AM

That's funny Messy, SOUPFIG is certainly NOT for them.
So what do you think of this place so far?
I assume you've dug up some threads.

Messy_Babe · 04-03-2006, 01:08 AM

Who is this? .. I'm checking it out .. I'm really looking for a good political site. Half and Half where people REALLY debate .. being almost the lone " warmongering neocon baby eater" at AG got so boring

He's on fire messy... I don't know if this is the place for me yet either... I'm still feeling these people out as they're groping me... :p

Well, I completely understand the confusion, but what Flint meant, yet did not clearly state, was... you're not supposed to respond to clone threads, but you can, of course. Mostly you can just read, chuckle and move on. But it's never bad when any thread gets attention.

I only know this because I've seen numerous clone threads, hundreds probably, some do get more attention than the original, for whatever reason.

Usually it starts out with a post such as "good one" or "ooooh lame".

General opinion is that mine tend to be lame - I can't understand this as I think they're fantastic. Worrying....

From what you say it seems there's more to cloning threads than meets the eye... I think they would be more interesting with a clone the clone approach or else they could give the wrong message to the uninitiated reader, clone-cloning makes it more sort of, well, communal ( if you know what I mean, and I think you do...). Not that I'm trying to set rules or anything (don't want to start that issue off again...!

)

either way theyre a terrible waste of time

SteveBsjb · 04-03-2006, 05:29 AM

How much time do they waste though, really? You read a line on a screen and move on. I like them because they often make me smile.

Cyclefrance · 04-03-2006, 05:38 AM

Well, maybe it's the fact that we're not used to this sort of item, plus the underlying suspiscions about our new members caused the wrong reaction. Easy to jump to the wrong conclusions, and as soon as you do.... well, we've seen what happens next from both sides.

I can see a potential plus side to them once their purpose and harmless intent is taken on board. Think it all happened a bit too fast for us to take on board objectively. Anyway, I'm happy to go back to the beginning of the thread and give this one the heavy groan it deserved - better try harder next time Steve (sorry, that should be Flint - edited but thought I should leave my mistake).... banker/wanker is a bit old hat, after all.... I think even my great-great-great grandfather would have turned in his grave at that one!

(hey, that was post 777 - that MUST be lucky!)

Kagen4o4 · 04-03-2006, 06:58 AM

even "spanking" would have been better than "wanking"

Cyclefrance · 04-03-2006, 08:27 AM

Is that a personal insight....?

SteveBsjb · 04-03-2006, 08:50 AM

Haha! I do think "spanking" would have worked better here.

A groan mostly is what clone threads get. Glad cycle's getting into the spirit of it. (And Kagen a little bit too, hehe.)

Hahaha... "personal insight"! Love it.

FallenFairy · 04-03-2006, 08:59 AM

I vote for spanking.... it's more fun and it removes that messy Catholic belief of having to shave one's palms...

That's what Stryper taught us in the '80's.
