Are posts demoted or promoted to the lounge?

1. Threads are VOTED INTO the lounge. By Skinner himself.

It's an honor. Series.

Have you ever seen any of those humorless people in GD or GD-P post here? Know why?

They can't. Skinner has to approve your lounge presence. Yup. It's true.

3. Isn't a system based on a vote of one a dictatorship?

Are you saying they're exiled here?

Is this a gulag?

2. They're Einstein-Rosen Bridge'd to the Lounge.

9. OOoh- Well done.

Do threads suffer any time dilation?

[LeftyMom]

10. Lounge threads are timeless.

:shrug:

4. They are rounded up and placed in those funny jackets

where the arms button in the back and carted off to the Lounge in a padded wagon...to get their shots from our special(translated: cracked) team of doctors and to join the rest of us in our humble basement DU asylum. Only the most enlightened(translated: hearing voices), insightful(translated: seeing things) threads are deemed worthy of Lounge emigration. :evilgrin:

5. They are...

Beatified! ;)

6. Have you ever seen a Lounge thread moved to GD or GD:P?

No. Because they immediately place above GD or GD:P.

7. DU being an anarcho-syndicalist commune,

we take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer of the week. But all the decision of that officer have to be ratified at a special biweekly meeting. By a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs, but by a two-thirds majority in the case of more...

well, you get the idea. That's how threads are moved to the Lounge.

8. Wow, your response was ALMOST geekier than mine.

Not quite, but almost.

11. Dennis?

12. 95 views and 9 votes? You lazy bastards! It's just one click!

:rofl:

13. If you are trying to be serious and people laugh, then do you have a good sense of humor?

[mainegreen]

14. No, but you should roll with it and pretend like you do.

:D
