I happen to love all your comments, Shell. As well as the chit chat from all the other participants. For this kind of social discussion I have been accused of frequent "off topic" behaviour in some forums though not yet on TFP. But to me it's like a party where you are talking, having fun, discussing...this is not a formal debate and if it was, I wouldn't be in it.

I don't know what to say about that "jargon" meanie. I wasn't in that thread but it seems pushy and insensitive to me in most cases...unless it was GiantHamburger, he is the extreme head superburger and is never wrong.

Doubleposting is when you post two posts in a row. I think, though I'm no expert on this at all, that if the timespan between two posts is somewhat long, though I have no idea how long is long, then both posts usually stay as posted on their own. But if you post two posts in a row and within a pretty tight timeframe, it is "automatically" merged by the evil double-posting genie.

Here, I'm now going to see if it works that way by posting this and then within a couple minutes posting a new post right after this, and let's see what happens.
