Surviving the /qa/ coaltalogue - Day 56 - The Dilation Counteroffensive
Featured thread: >>>/soy/86409
The Third Soyvil War doesn't exist even though I'll pretend it does. So, today two threads caught my attention (>>>101461 and >>>101466. Note the proximity between them.)
The first thread is "bump my thread so thing happen". Zeliggers do this a lot. The whole purpose of this zeligger is to push something he wants to page 1. But he wants the attention and approval of others to be granted to his idea. So, he is taking his chances on bringing something up that others may or may not approve of, to see if he will get the desired attention. But the way he's doing it, it's a win-win situation for him. No point in discussing it any further.
The second is the zeligger attempt to "stealthraid" /soy/ with subversive coal... except it's not really stealthy at all, but it's an interesting development nonetheless. It was met with a little backlash, as you would expect. Now, it doesn't take much to change a discussion like this into a soap opera. And, that's just what it is, in many ways:
* First, we have a person who posted in that thread attempting to defuse it with a well-intentioned "you are the target" joke.
* Second, there was the response, something to the effect of "do we have to listen to him?" thread to defend the original poster.
* Third, the original poster makes a snarky comment about the second response. It was funny, but not a smart thing to do.
* Fourth, there was an attempt at a serious response to the person's remarks, which was done in a way that seems like a pretty clear attack of sorts. The poster took it in the way it was intended, of course. But in my eyes, all anyone was trying to do was express that they didn't like what was being said.
* Fifth, a follow-up by the same person who posted the serious response. The thread was again met with a response in the vein of an attack, and then a response to that response.
* Sixth, a reply. The first response to the second response.
* Seventh, a comment about the reply-to-reply follow-up, which goes on to describe it as if it's an attack.
That's pretty much it. Well, it looks like this pisscord skirmish is coming to an end. Maybe the jannies will now try to keep it clean from pisscord groom threads that fester in this slow board.
