So, it seems to be a feature to notify another site or web page (like a blog article or a thread) that it has been referred to. So, if you'd enter a trackback to your own blog, the blog would know it was linked to. If you enter a link to a thread on your blog, the thread would "know" it was linked to.

Or something like that.

*snip cool story* but we were about to launch a rocket to a secret base to take out the mastermind.

Was it a secret underwater base? Tried to find a tvtrope link, but apparently it isn't a meme explored so far. Shocking.

And what if you send a trackback to another post on enworld?

It was a satellite the villian was a female scientist and head of this major scientific corporation and we think she had been trying to incorporate herself into this new form of energy they were testing, but the actual base the rocket was in was a secret underwater one

The background premise was the scientists were working on a way of transmitting energy from place to place, the energy worked out as a purple esque type of thing (which is what our Incorporeal friend looked like, my characters eyes flared purple when he used his powers our spike growing friend was turning into a creature from another dimension) they had also worked on replication and teleportation with this technology and had a bunch of satellites around the earth capable of beaming this energy.
The super sub we stole was powered by the energy and was based on current russian technology and intended as escape vessels to the secret underwater base.

NOOO!!!! Don't do it. It'll create a looped wormhole around the center of the galaxy and turns the time to flow backwards. I really don't want to live my past again!!!

Its too late, its already been done.

No, it's fine, the CERN machine will save us!

That's very unlikely to happen. You'd probably need some secondary effect, like a proton stream reaching near light speeds and colliding with another stream of protons. And when would this ever happen?

Spoiler

Tallarn, you're to fast and stealing my show!

Ah, but knowing exactly how unlikely it is enables you to make it happen. All you need is a cup of tea and a way to input the improbility factors to it . And I'm afraid this is exactly what happens if you make a trackback-loop while I'm having tea

Besides as Tallarn pointed out, the proton stream will luckily cancel this out
