Short Rant: Why?

[urbantechie]

Why do people post news on OT now like it's CNN website?

 

[snow patrol]

Because Bonkers needs help

 

[eyor]

It is known as "discreet neffing"

 

[jAcKeL]

the news is more interesting when u read it in the forums?

 

[saxman]

I think bonkers wants to get banned

 

[urbantechie]

I just did a count of 7 "News" topics by bonkers on the first page of OT alone....:|

Anyway, I don't think he did it purposely. He already got flamed to death in the other posts. Give him another chance.

There are 17 of his news threads on my first OT page. I have it set to 70 threads per catagory...So he has pretty much 1/4 of all the threads in Off Topic at the moment.

He does it lots, I asked him if he'd like post all his news links in one thread. He ignored me. Apparently the mods don't care either. Neff your way up to a higher status discretely kiddies!

*James Earl Jones voice* You are watching the Bonkers News Network, this is BNN

Hehehe... maybe there should be a www.bnn.com on the web!

I always felt they did it because they didn't quite understand a story. This way someone else will read it and explain it to them.
