Good god, is it low-post troll day?
I'm wearing out my ignore button.

I wish there was a way to automatically ignore any poster under X amount of posts.

9. Hilarious.
Now I have to watch that video when I get home.

The idea of zombies bumping into each other and yelling "YES SHE WILL" would make a decent horror flick.

6. This was my guess.
They're going into overdrive. That tombstone doesn't amount to much, really.

2. No, it's "Rapidly Expanding Ignored List" day.
I've added at least 5 today, when I had gone weeks without adding a single name.

18. Hi
You recover from last week :-)

It took me three days to return to the real world again after my 5 day campaigning 24/7 binge.

10. Dear Olkaz - Please don't assume that all low posters are trolls.
I've been a member since 2004 but don't post much. I agree that there are alot of idiots on the boards these days but the fact is that in order to get to 1000 posts, you've got to start at the bottom.

Just sayin.

17. LOL, you've been here since 2002, since the Ari Fleisher "grassy knoll" days.
:hi: I'm sure they didn't mean the broad brush, but, like clockwork, TS'ed folks seem to reappear, with the same writing style, same "nooz" sources, over and over again, and unfortunately long termer, but infrequent posters get caught up in the net.

11. I think there is a new formula in place
A = 1/n * f

Where A = the absurdity level of an OP, n = the number of posts of the poster (so 1/n becomes larger, the fewer the posts), and f = the flame factor of the topic.

We seem to have a high A number today.

:kick:

16. I know, I know
It's the people with like 18 posts and every one has been inflammatory.

That crap drives me nuts.

19. We have one especially sad Hillary supporter who comes back every day.
Racks up his ten posts so he can start his three threads of shit, then gets zapped like the bug he is. Lather, rinse, repeat.

I can't even comprehend how sad his life has to be. :rofl:

20. Man, I gotta admit though, it would be nice to have that much free time.
Each time I post and read, I'm stealing time from work and school.

Speaking of which, back to my homework.
