Any chance we can bring EP back just long enough to bitch about this?

You could fill in for him if you'd like.

Ok, I'll have a lash.

This new so-called 'rule' is unclear.  I'm going to have to have more info on the meanings of 'posting', 'clickbait', 'thread', 'allowed', 'consider', 'subject' and - most of all - the phrase 'relevant information'.

Relevant to whom?  The stuff in my thread might be relevant enough that some member here would be happy to have it.  And what exactly is meant by 'information'? Merriam-Webster Online defines information as 'the attribute inherent in and communicated by one of two or more alternative sequences or arrangements of something (as nucleotides in DNA or binary digits in a computer program) that produce specific effects'.  Are you telling me I can't post information about DNA using my binary computer?

Ok, suppose I title a thread 'Don't Click This' and someone clicks it anyway and you collection of brown-shirts punish ME when THEY are the ones who clicked.  How do you expect me to stop people from following simple instructions?

Pretty dictatorial of you lot to run roughshod over the rights of decent, hardworking trolls...erm...members.

Not bad not bad, but needs more ragequitting.

Let me have a go:

EP MODE ON

So this fucking rule isn't as obvious as people make out is it? But they pretend like it is because of the stupid fucking groupthink. I try to be nice and sincere and you don't listen. I try to change but you don't believe me and call it "insincere" so fuck you all I'm done with this stupid forum. I don't need you. And I mean it this time.

You're all cunts and I'm sick of all of you.

*comes back 15 minutes later*

I am really sincerely sorry for my behavior honestly and genuinely. Even though you were all being rather kind of stupid and fake and acting irrational and dumb and this rule makes no sense.

EP MODE OFF

Any good?
