This is a test of your TFP moderator system. This is only a test.
*beep*
This is a test of your TFP moderator system. The users of your area in voluntary cooperation with the Federal, State and local authorities have developed this system to keep you informed in the event of an emergency. If this had been an actual emergency, the Attention Signal you just heard would have been followed by official information, news or instructions. This message board serves the USA. This concludes this test of the Emergency Broadcast System.
Once again, this is only a test.

This is a test of the patience of the Tilted Moderator system.

We have watched this for a couple hours just to see where it would go.......and it ain't goin' Nowhere.

Are we supposed to be amused by this?

Maybe a parody of the "This is a Test of the Emergency Broadcast System - Not This Time!" thread?

You just put this post in the wrong section. I belongs in Tilted How-To (how to annoy Halx).

Glory's Sun · 02-28-2005, 08:08 AM

I'd say it goes in Nonsense if it goes anywhere... personally..I think the instructions in the title should be followed

rmarshall · 02-28-2005, 10:21 AM

Doesn't this forum serve Canada too?

Lebell · 02-28-2005, 10:34 AM

In order to make it a REALLY good test, we should ban the poster too, no?

Just a thought

Fourtyrulz · 02-28-2005, 10:51 AM

You can ban him only if his total posts go to moi.

Lebell · 02-28-2005, 10:53 AM

You think so, eh?

And the moral to this little tale is:
Some of the things that sound the funniest in your head...are best kept there.

Kinda hypocritical how this thread has not been closed yet others are closed almost instantly, usually with a biting remark.

Lebell · 02-28-2005, 12:26 PM

Someone needs to lighten up and get some perspective.

Carno · 02-28-2005, 12:33 PM

Funny, that's usually what I think when other threads are closed.

Picking and choosing when you're going to enforce rules usually is not a good thing.

Lebell · 02-28-2005, 12:38 PM

Please take this to PM's if you have an issue with thread moderation.

World's King · 02-28-2005, 12:47 PM

What the fuck ever.

I'm not in the mood for "merry pranksters" today.

Wow, that stings.

Think of that one by yourself?

Choosing to be a smartass to a mod- especially in a forum and not a PM- is also not a good thing.

You thought wrong on the first count, you really screwed the pooch on the last one, too..

We don't pick and choose, we things get closed, the poster is normally the one who chose wrong to put it up there and depends on many other factors before we even act on it..
Glad to straighten that out, got anymore that needs to be cleared up?
