I didn't read it until now, but do you want to try, looks like you're proud of your achievements

First of you know nothing about my achievements.
Second off, I really care about this place, and want it to continue.

do you consider yourself a big brain poster coming in here with your hoodlum story or are you just trying to make the thread about yourself for fun because I gave you the benefit of the doubt and I think you have potential to maybe tighten up your posts a bit when you're like more sober

let me elaborate, i dont want to go looking for subtlety in posts if it isn't present, and it was a pretty successful derail if it was intended as such

I don't know if anyone really has a posting technique

just post whatever you're thinking.

that's a technique I suppose.

I just used it for this post, i guess

OP first you need to figure out what your posting goals are, then you need to work out a posting strategy, and only then do you incorporate posting techniques that fit in with your overall strategy.

You're just asking "what's a good way to post?" when you should be asking "what's a good way to post that gets me what I want?"

Until a couple of years ago my posting technique was to hit the quote button and then delete the quoted text in order to make my post.

This is because I didn't know the difference between the post and reply buttons and I didn't want to embarrass myself by perhaps getting it wrong. I still don't know what the post button does.

an easy way to own your posting enemies is to reply with a flippant and glib catchphrase that shows that not only do you not care about them as a poster, but you do not care to engage with their posting in any way. examples abound from yesteryear but a hot one right now is to reply with nothing but "that's right"

What really separates good posters from great is willingness to post dirty, to emptyquote a rival's post to raise up their self confidence before crushing it like a mangosteen.
