Are you a threadkiller?

[Rel]

Rel can bite me.

I've never given into peer pressure.

As you can see, this version also works, thus making my theory correct anyway.

Okay, have you ever noticed that sometimes you reply to a thread and it seems to die?

So the question remains: Are you a threadkiller?

Not as much as I would like to be. When I have killed a few threads (never had a thread closed, though), I like to think that what I've said is simply the final, correct, last word on the subject that simply can't be refuted. Any more discussion is simply superfluous.

But then, I'm arrogant that way.

And I'm not talking about threads you start that don't get any replies. That happens to EVERYONE from time to time.

Not me!

Are we there yet? Thread looks like it's on its last legs.

A bit premature for that, I think.

Now, if someone would just write a song called "Threadkiller" to the tune of "Goldfinger", then that would be the definitive last word, thus showing everyone how futile it'd be to continue posting here.

I would, but I'm lazy. So Reveal can bite me.

Yes, yes, pretend there's a connection there.

Demiurge out.

I guess I am not the threadkiller....


Hmmm...

Wystan can bite me....

OW.....

I think I like the following better:

Reveal can bite Rel....

What are the most successful techniques for threadkilling?

We already know about the "serious post that skirts the line of religion/polictics" method.

There's also the Dadaism method, A.K.A. "What would a slaadi say?"
Purple fish umbrella leaking fire!

How about the Rick James method? *shudder*

If you started the thread, a sure way to kill it is to ask a moderator to lock it. (I've done this a few times.) Or is that considered cheating?

One other technique I have used in the past is to find a thread that is already dead (like, 3 months old), then bump it without adding anything relevant. Just cross your fingers that no one replies to the bump.

Why does the green reveal bite the yellow flying rel?

I'm not sure if a locked thread really counts as a dead thread. More like, preserved in amber for all time...

OK, so that's still dead. But a special kind of dead.

Demiurge out.

I am not a thread killer so much as the flanker for the thread killer- I always happen on threads just before they get killed.
And I would say that someone can bite me but I am just to tasty to say that.

I'm a thread-killer. Got a special FFg 41-grain hot-load for the really nasty ones, too.
