im going to make a Real Post and say thread kidnapping is kind of Dumb and also Not Good and generally just results in the twelve imp zone posters that still exist rushing to make the same joke fifteen times

perhaps we should extricate threads out of imp zone instead

So like the one time it happened where the Star Citizen posters just lurked the forum for a day posting on their offsite? Yes, good example there.

i dont pay attention to anything star citizen related because ive never had major head trauma

well yeah but you can just make the perilous journey to games if you want to threadshit

all moving to impzone does is make the threadshits the only thing that exists which kind of ruins the point of threadshitting

oh I forgot to mention that the ransom would be that there would need to be a certain amount of forum posts from thread regulars to get it back

would just posting 'gas' 1000 times count

for real tho since you're here and all im not sure using imp zone to try and force 'good' posting or as punishment for weird + bad posts or whatever is a good idea

sending a thread from a subforum with 1500 + active users at any given time to a subforum with 50+ just makes the thread die for a little bit

why not just hand out probations or whatever

i mean i realize youre kinda scared to hit that probation button else we get back to the dystopian hellhole that was the axemaniac era but sometimes just going 'hey don't make that post' sends a clearer message than anything else

like i don't really understand what you as a mod get out of this, or what it encourages besides the imp zone circlejerk

i'd say the smash bros. thread. they're buying each other avs over samus in shorts.

one person and people have basically moved on as of right now. and it was basically only one or two people whining about the shorts anyway, most of the bad posts were people whining about the possibility of people whining about the shorts.

if it happens again then go for it but right now would basically be dragging the joke out

The Smash thread kinda halted in its tracks and started shooting the poo poo

yeah it basically moved itself to imp zone. you all went 'woah that guy mabel quoted deserves to get owned!!' but everyone gave him poo poo already

the stuff about the leak has chilled out too

isnt the giantbomb thread just a thread talking about watching a bunch of people on the internet playing video games that theyre not very good at?

like its fun watching people that are amazing beating a game like mgrr but why would i want to watch some fat guy sucking at mario kart 8 or whatever goes on at that website

because they make Cool Jokes while doing it

my favorite giantbomb moment is them getting really mad about the hatsune miku game and assuming it was some weird fetish thing instead of just a rhythm game with an anime mascot
