What would this forum look like if it was unmoderated?

He sounds like a kiss-ass too.

You've never read "How to Win Friends and Influence People"? It's a pretty good book actually.

This thread is now about guessing this.

JohnCU?

PhillipineMango. Something about the usernames and style of posting, from what I can remember.

So with no moderation here I would be banned. :hmm:

"How to Win Friends and Influence People"?

the irony is strong with this post.

I've got the "influencing people" part down.^_^

 

[Whoozyerdaddy]

It would look like the food-fight scene in Animal House

The whole point of the book is to assist with Influencing People to Your Way of Thinking.

I think you should return the book, as you've completely mastered the OPPOSITE effect.

Maybe not yours, but I'm sure countless others.

Wasn't PhillipineMango/goku a really slow 12-year-old? He'd probably be 16 or 17 now. He defined the 'I'm 12 and what is this?' meme before it existed. I just can't picture him pulling off OP's posting style.

PhineasJWhoopee,
I know you posted this thread, sarcastically.
You posted a thread in FI, whining.
Since you have been here, you've accused the members of treating you/others poorly.

Let me just explain to you what is going on. This is not our first rodeo. You are not the first person in the last 15 years to come on here and act like a pompous ass then get indignant when called on it. You won't be the last. We have seen your kind COUNTLESS times.

Either drop the ego and have some fun or GTFO. Or continue on your present path and get the attention that you deserve. Nay, crave.

At first, I believed the OP to be a RBM. Now I am not so sure. If he is a RBM, he's done this a few times and had it down pretty well
Likely, he's just a naive poster, unschooled in the ways of the internet.

Lol. Yeah I forgot about the goku connection. But I think he/they was older than that before the bannage. Anyway, look at the posts that either has started. High percentage of random/asinine questions as thread topic.

On second thought, I guess that's most of us here...

I think that your post is off topic but I'll respond because there are a few misreprentations here.

1. You posted a thread in FI, whining.

I was falsely accused and ended up with an infraction. I laid out a factual case why it was unfair. Is that "whinning". Is there something wrong with asking for fairness?

2. Since you have been here, you've accused the members of treating you/others poorly.

I think that there's a lot of unnecessary rude behavior here, yes. Would you dispute that?

I don't think I've gotten "indignant" about it.

3. (You) act like a pompous ass

I may be a lot of things, but a pompous ass isn't one of them.

You're the one that seems to be clamoring for some rhyme or reason to this place. I gave you your answer. Take it or leave it.

This place is as it is. It is a reflection of the members and has grown/changed over the years. You may not like us, but don't hate us because we are beautiful.

There's a point where you need to stop being defensive and just let people think what they want to think.

Whether you are trolling or not, there's nothing worse than continuuing to argue with people who have a set mind. If you can't convince people, you just end up inflaming them against you.

Sometimes silence is golden. Not always, of course, but sometimes...

If you were "falsely" accused then you wouldn't have gotten an infraction.

I've got another theory!!!

He's DVK916!!! He decided to further his athiestic agenda by acting like the most pompous, ignorant, dickish Christian in the world!

Who's got a picture of the Chin?

he's almost a reverse- happypuppy...

If that was true then he would spend all his time on TFNN acting like the bitter old man that he is, telling TFNN how much they suck and that they should post on Anandtech instead.
