If I wanted one, I'd just steal it. I wouldn't even feel bad.

IE, people deleting all their posts and leaving. This can disrupt or junk entire threads, cause massive confusion, and overall is just an annoying and *****-ass thing to do. Especially if those posts are informative or useful.



Who would ever do such a thing?

Can someone tell bowtieguy that rampant, constant, apparently oblivious necroposting, especially when year-old conversations are replied to as if new, is not a Good Thing?

+1000000000

That guy is killing me. And his posts are invariably run-on nonsense that contribute absolutely nothing to the thread in the first place. Sometimes I wish there was a mandatory 2-week lurking period around here. I would think it would keep spammers away more as well.

It's easy to post a lot when you don't concern yourself with things like spelling, capital letters, punctuation, or coherent thought.

Well all of his posts suddenly disappeared, so I would assume so. He doesn't take hints particularly well it would seem. Even stranger, he introduced himself in the introduction thread again, and filled out his profile with far more detail than I've ever seen. He's completely oblivious to all discussion forum norms.

Still, you have to admire his cleverness and ability to fly under the radar. I mean, who would ever make the "bowtieguy" - "bowtielover" connection? He must be an accomplished confidence man.

It looks like the emoticon collection has shifted. Before when I'd reply to a post, the dozen or so immediately available icons included my favorites

and
icon_gu_b_slayer[1].gif
. Now to use these I have to click on [more] and wait for the full page to load up.....

For a second there, I was trying to figure out why you were calling that smiley "colon-slayer". I thought there must be some inside-SF Conne/Ed joke I'd missed.
