Am I a thread killer? - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Dano069 · 11-17-2003, 01:55 PM

Okay, I'm feeling excessively paranoid about this. While scrolling through several of the boards, I've noticed that I'm the last person to have posted in some of the threads. Now, I KNOW it can't be that my answers are the be all/end all to these topics. I'd hate to think I'm a thread killer!

insidious_machinae · 11-17-2003, 06:29 PM

Usually that happens when a person posts something that is either conclusive, or that nobody has anything to respond with. I myself am a thread killer quite often because I either unintentionally hijack the thread, or say something that is so stupid, nobody knows how to even approach my post. So they don't.

j03th3j3w · 11-18-2003, 12:10 AM

well.. neither of you are thread killers as of now... but.. good luck in your persuit of bein a thread killer... i wish you the best! cheers!

Jam · 11-18-2003, 12:52 AM

ahem.. if youd all kindly stop posting i could kill this thread

/me urinates on the submit reply button... ahhah!! now click on it, i dare yah

BentNotTwisted · 11-18-2003, 07:17 AM

One question, are you late joining the thread? If the thread has a lively discussion going, I doubt one post by you would kill it. I've seen lots of your comments followed by other posts in many threads. So, I'd say yes, you are being paranoid. But remember, just because you're paranoid doesn't mean 'they' are not out to get you.

Hopefully this comment will kill this thread! But I doubt it.

you know what would of been funny

if no one had responed to this thered

i would of died of laughter

numist · 11-18-2003, 09:33 AM

too bad....

Dano, I don't think your a thread killer, at least, if there are any threads that youve killed, they only died because I missed them on the way down..

txlovely · 11-19-2003, 02:51 PM

I'd say in some cases that you could take being a thread killer as a complement. What do I know - I'm a rookie

rev_skarekroe · 11-19-2003, 03:23 PM

Actually, I'M a thread killer. If you don't respond, I'll prove it.

THAT thought had crossed my mind. It would have been way too funny if that had happened.

numist · 11-20-2003, 12:58 PM

ok, now that Dano069 has posted... no one else post so everyone thinks he killed this thread!

oh wait... oops...

damn...

txlovely · 11-20-2003, 08:38 PM

Let me do it for you, numist. I am beginning to think that there isn't a thread on this entire board where I can simply make posts without being verbally attacked. Either that or I feel as though I'm being stalked. I don't suppose one can report every posting that falls in one of those categories, i.e. I think the paranoia forum was created especially for me.
There, you may not be the thread killer afterall.

Jam · 11-25-2003, 09:43 PM

txlovely!!!grrr... what a horrible post..

ps.. im watching you

thingstodo · 12-08-2003, 03:57 AM

I have a feeling that this thread could go on forever and forever. I mean, who could now let it die?

geodaro · 12-08-2003, 08:49 AM

Hey TXLovely, where did you go last night after dinner? I lost your car when you ran that red light and I wasn't able to catch up! Anyway, I hope your having fun at work. P.S. I like that shirt!

Ch'i · 09-03-2006, 11:49 PM

I have the same problem. I think its because I try to solve the problem without fostering discussion. If you don't believe me just look at the philosophy board...

fresnelly · 09-04-2006, 06:51 AM

The philosophy board has been *really* slow lately. The reasons for that are up for debate, but it ain't you.

Personally I think why that forum's been slow is more of a philosophical problem than a thread killing problem

Lady Sage · 09-04-2006, 12:03 PM

I too am a thread killer..... *washes the submit button with copious amounts of lysol then presses*

Jove · 09-04-2006, 02:09 PM

I was about to comment about Dano's comment, but Lady Sage just killed this thread by washing the submit button.

cookmo · 09-04-2006, 04:07 PM

I've always felt like a thread killer, on this and other boards. Just watch, you'll see

Jove · 09-04-2006, 05:26 PM

The only way one can be an actual thread killer is if you don't point out the fact you at one time were a thread killer. Otherwise, I may come on here and ruin your prediction.

Ch'i · 09-06-2006, 02:26 PM

Its done. I have officially killed Tilted Philosophy. Had I known this would have happened I would never have started... "Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds."

Lady Sage · 09-06-2006, 04:02 PM

I HAD to wash the submit button..... if you look up farther Jam peed all over it... it was a terrible mess... I had to use bleach.

Mark23 · 09-06-2006, 09:38 PM

It's OK to be a thread killer. It happens quite a lot to me. Of course, it's much better to kill a thread than to anger people so much that you receive about 20 replies saying how much of an idiot you are.

SugahBritches · 09-06-2006, 09:54 PM

LMAO! Well, by the looks of this thread (started 3 yrs ago by Dano) I'd think the chances of him being a thread killer is nil to none now!

shesus · 09-07-2006, 04:17 AM

At least thread killers can't be tried for murder.

But I like to think of it as that topic has been thoroughly discussed and there is nothing else to add. The only threads that are bad to kill imo are the Rate threads and the Say Something Nice thread. Those are the only threads where I'm like...hmm...why is no one responding?

And I think that the last person who posts in this thread will be the ultimate thread killer....Who's posting next?

Jove · 09-09-2006, 07:02 PM

Good question Shesus, it all depends on who wants to respond on your post that also follows my post. This thread might not exist at all and I am just typing this all out in a dream.

absofsteel · 11-24-2006, 01:04 AM

I have also noticed that the life expectancy of a thead plummets when I'm around..............(ominous last post?)

tecoyah · 11-24-2006, 03:51 AM

Good to see this thread revived by absofsteel....seems I can't help but reply when he says something....heh

Jove · 11-24-2006, 11:05 AM

I killed this thread for about two months, which is an average record, but I think geodaro has the best record of 3 years.

Crack · 11-27-2006, 06:55 AM

Cynthetiq · 11-27-2006, 09:11 AM

surferlove007 · 11-27-2006, 01:21 PM

Nice to know I'm not the only one who wonders this when no one responds after myself.
*Phew*

Sorcha · 11-27-2006, 03:05 PM

Nah, I killed a couple threads. I felt like a thread killer, and I just got here

Zeraph · 11-27-2006, 04:53 PM

The question is, who will kill this thread?

mixedmedia · 11-27-2006, 05:29 PM

I'm a thread killer. I've gotten used to it. Just watch....

Elphaba · 11-27-2006, 07:38 PM

Y'all are just amateur thread killers. I kill my own topics. I'm thinking of upping my post counts to my threads by just responding to myself...forever.

little_tippler · 11-28-2006, 01:20 AM

Yeah, I seem to kill my own topics too. It's like if I reply to people, then suddenly no-one has anything to say. And I'm not paranoid...I think it's the ocean that lies between us...people can't relate to me...has anyone got a hanky?

*passes Kleenex* There there...

People probably see your response as a resolution to the thread. They put their input, you respond to their input...there ya go. lol. The ocean isn't that big! Promise.
