I don't think it would take very long to find times when hanky1 insulted people, but to find them, I'd have reread his old posts. No thanks. Once was enough.B.A. Bearacus said:hanky1 said:

The last thing he said was that he never insulted anyone on BI. He was then helped into a straightjacket.

Also a put down.
Mods, why can't we do this? This is a great idea. What ruins the discussion OT is sock puppets, hiding identity, deluging a thread, a single poster not standing behind their posts. I love the idea of a threshold of activity before posting, and also maybe a ban on sock puppets and back to back posts or self-replay. There is just way too much trolling and meming.Unit2Sucks said:
...we have a recurring poster who has been banned but continues to create new accounts. It should be trivial to only permit people to post in OT once they have 100 posts or have been here 6 months...

An absurd statement insulting the intelligence of everyone on BI was made and I commented on it.

Or how about we break all internet conventions and only allow posters to post with their real name, or at least being "certified by the mods as a unique and real person who can have consequences for trolling and general ****ery.

Sometimes he'd have a burst of replies within a single topic (usually responding to different posts individually), but I don't think he was constantly creating new topics or repeatedly posting nothing but a Twitter link in the way BF2 or htp were.Anarchistbear said:sycasey said:"Don't pay any attention" works less well when certain posters start spamming the board with posts and threads.Big C said:Anarchistbear said:

Concordtom was "spamming" the board every day during Trump as were others. There is Democrat spam and Republican spam. So what?
hpt1 posting a link?

You're different in that regard.

It was him - often only him- replying to himself in multiple threads . Trump.. Trump is crazy.. Trump is a fascist. .. Trump is Hitler.. How can we get rid of Trump? .. Mussolini was hanged..can we hang Trump? Then there were the multiple Wiley Coyote assasination kits.
It was like multiple crazy stream of consciousness thoughts put into prose. I don't find posting Twitter links as looney, though it's not as entertaining as the best of Tom. Again who cares? We all know what these threads are before reading - Republican spam or Democrat spam. Boring, mostly, but without them there would be zero posts

Off topic board is a misnomer. It is a Republican vs Democrat Board- that's it. The reason less people are here is because most people have little interest in Republican vs Democrat pissing matches and don't see it as some existential battle but as a great writer said: " Two bald men fighting over a comb."
The board should be shut down. It's not what it used to be nor not what we want it to be. Just a victim of the times.

How do I get to 77%?
I'd separate out politics to its own board, keep OT for other things.Anarchistbear said:

Oh, hahahaha.... I can't read through this even a third time without laughing out loud and tearing up. Thank you, that was perfect!!
Perhaps... Was it my detailed description of how I envisioned the plane landing and circling around to the assembled media... the exit stairway rolled up... the doorway opens, and out emerges a smiling and waving victorious Trump... cameras all rolling so all can see, there as no wires, nobody to push, no nothing... except!.... as Trump begins down the stairway, a gust of wind emerges, and blows the secret notes of Bribery and Embezzlement, written in Russian, out of his chest pocket.... he panics that they'll be blown directly to the awaiting mob of media... the evil media.... and so, as he reaches out, he oversteps and begins a horrible - horribly GLORIOUS some might say - head over foot downward crash onto the cement below, where, splat!...his head cracks open like an over-ripened Pumpkin on Halloween...blood instantly soaking the concrete, to cheers of millions watching live on TV, to cackles of hundreds viewing from mere meters away, and to the great relief of the dozens of secret service staffers standing nearby, who offered nothing but an audible "ooops". Instant death!
Trump, a grand man, se fini !!!
I was a poor English student growing up. I never had my words referred to as "prose" before. "Stream of consciousness", perhaps, yes! But never "prose!"
Thank you! I award thee a rare Star to blue your post!
I have graduated to the next level of Life. Or, at least, of BearInsider!
