D'oh, I was seeing if I could reproduce the "doublepost automerged work-around manuever" I was once able to employ regularly, though as of late, I've only accomplished it in two instances. I don't try it often, though, so lack of motivation in seeing my name duplcated twice, thrice in a row may not be as appealing as it once seemed.
By the way, perhaps a letter announcing "World winner" needs a validation stamp to deliver it to squeeeb?

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. ---------- Post added at 08:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 PM ---------- is this a doublepost? ---------- Post added at 08:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 PM ---------- ^ see!!! it was "auto-merged" whether I like it or not. damn!!!! triple doubleposted auto merged! <<< am now attempting to circumvent the auto merge genie...did it work? YES!!! Last edited by BadNick; 06-14-2009 at 05:00 PM.. |

It's 24 hours, Nick, last I heard.
Try clicking "Post reply" faster. Maybe you'll break the limiter, break through the barrier, and duplicate yourself. I don't believe there's ever been a tutorial, but Ch'i and I dropped hints how to do it in the archives of history thread.
