"data dumps" in general discussion

Postby Wombaticus Rex » Fri Aug 09, 2013 1:33 pm

Perelandra pointed this out, based on Fruh’s latest ramble.

There is also the matter of AD’s ”TIDS” teratoma, which I asked him to move to Data Dump and he declined. Prrrrobably should have told him instead.

Is this something we tolerate or is it worth intervention?

Cheers.

I love Pere, but I view this as a poodle complaint. It may have had more validity in the heyday of the board when page 1 of GD was filled with active threads.

Definitely doesn't bother me much, either. I used to give Fruh a hard time but I get two impressions: 1) he's not all there and 2) he is undeniably coming from a good place.

Frankly, I'm starting to feel the same about AD these days! Heh. But, I don't see much of a problem either. People engage selectively.

IMO, Fruh's and AD's threads are fine in GD.
