At first it was just annoying to have posts consisting of just images, but now I'm thinking that it's sort of anti-Cellar. The posts will disappear if the images are no longer hosted or published, thus "breaking" any involved conversations. It also makes the posts unsearchable, by either Cellar or Google.

Flint • Sep 30, 2008 11:26 am
Posting an image, of text, is a stupidly unnecessary use of resources. And also, just regular stupid.
dar512 • Sep 30, 2008 11:29 am
See my post in the mildly irritating thread.
BigV • Sep 30, 2008 11:40 am
I don't think it's stupid. I think it's a good idea... if you want your communication unsearchable.

It's a technique that has been introduced in spam spam spam spam, when the white hats learned to search for strings indicative of undesirable content. Then when the same message was communicated to our flexible brains via unsearchable image of text. Stupid? That depends.

Is it anti-cellar? Good question. I don't think so. Think of all the other images that would leave gaps in the conversations should they become unpublished, are they anti-cellar? Many of them have only minimal accompanying text, sometimes only a single character, perhaps a punctuation mark.

I think it's self defeating. I am not concerned by it. It will leave gaps in the conversations. It reminds me of a courtroom, where the witness is prodded to answer verbally after only nodding or pointing. The court transcript would not have the information in the record, despite the fact that all present who were paying attention would have understood.

I find the posting style to be annoying. Not only is the style annoying, but there is no real content.

I've never seen a posting style like his before. I don't get it. He obviously has to go through a lot of work to create those graphics. You would think he'd have something better to say after going through so much work.
kerosene • Sep 30, 2008 11:47 am
I imagine he is probably trying to not get it removed by doing it that way. It's rather irritating and stinks of trollness. I say there needs to be some kind of text involved with new posters....maybe it's adding too many rules to newbs, but still...it's fucking annoying.
Flint • Sep 30, 2008 11:50 am
Treat the posts exactly as if a new user came in and posted images only, with no text. I know that's what they are; but I assume that image-only posts with no text would be treated like spam.
glatt • Sep 30, 2008 11:55 am
What if they were cool images in the WTF thread? We'd be rejoicing them.

How did you find this thread? Did you use the "search" function to look for occurrences of your user name? If so, you will understand how we like the ability to search text, and why your posting text in graphics is bugging some of us.

i "found" the thread discussing my style of posting by doing what i always do in every forum i post in. I clicked on "Quick Links" at the top of every page in every forum. it gives you the top 100 or so most recent threads and replys to threads.....

At 10 posts I'd hardly call it intolerably irritating. Give her enough rope to hang herself -either she'll calm down and be a great addition, or she'll escalate it until a ban becomes the only sensible option.

I don't really have a problem with that posting style. I'd prefer it if it wasnt so vibrant. Much prefer the black on white, but not being able to search isn't a problem to me.

This post is ban worthy. the text is horrendous but more importantly the douche that can be active in over 35 messageboards isn't usually the cellar type. and anyone who gets awards for posts and is actually proud of it should just stop breathing right now.

This child doesn't even have good taste in it's 35 forums. it probably should be a bannable offence to do anything that causes the cellar to turn up as a google hit in the same list as at least half of those :lol:

F'real , though, it's not that unignorable. Does the search fail thingie affect the whole thread of just that post? I rarely use it.

I don't understand that statement, we can remove anything and anybody. Magliocco handles NY.

It's your uncle Harry with the bow tie that blinks, the hand buzzer, and has memorized Milton Berle's entire joke book. Trying to be as funny as Sheldon, but in his own lame style. Occasionally funny, generally benign, except annoying, when you're thinking/discussing something serious. But all in all, harmless... some bigger pains have turned out OK.

My prediction... won't stick around long, if he doesn't get rave reviews (awards), or at least focused attention, from us.

Oh yes, I know. I was not doubting the powers that be, Bruce. ;)

I was just offering a possible reason for the poster's use of images instead of text. Perhaps this person thinks that if his posts are unsearchable, they are not going to be "caught" and deleted. I dunno. I suppose it was a stretch.
