rott Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I think that posters should consider if they would be willing to make the comment to the member's face before they reply to their post. From Garro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve2UK Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 WWF is this thread about? Can't be buthered to read dis trach. The OP is obviously cluelass and bean banging bargirlz all day and supports the PAD. Nuff said. TIT.Youz all cum from Pittaya and your speling is crup. Cop coon crap. Troll Rule 22. Always do an edit to your post as this makes it stand out amongst all the dross above your post. Yes Well, you would say that wouldn't you? Just typical! A library book in Pattaya?! Oh, gimme a break........ Rule 23. Never read your post in a] the typing window or b] the Preview Post window before you hit "Add Reply" - way too difficult to read in a] and b] looks nothing like it will appear in the forum. In any case, reading what you wrote before you post it might get you having second thoughts - or even first thoughts for some......... But seriously, folks....... To familyonthemove - many thanks for starting this thread; your rules and the others that followed have had me laughing fit to bust - very welcome antidote to the goings-on over in News Clippings. Speaking of which - I wonder if Admin could come up with something that makes it compulsory reading for anyone over there who posts more than 10 times in 5 minutes?

toptuan Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Rule #24: Throw around the word "TROLL" liberally in your posts. Makes you sound like an old-timer arrogant bastard who despises anyone who smacks of "newbie." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaVisionBurma Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 7. Remember that pretty much any question you can think of, has already been asked 10-12 times, possibly within the last week. Never search for a topic, always create a new one. If you see a topic already running, just create a new one with a slightly different title !8. Always, always quote huge posts, and add a single one word or one line to the end of it, or even nothing at all ! Great way to increase your post count ! 8a. If someone else has already done this, feel free to quote the entire thing again, so you can comment on the one word (or one) line response of the person before you. Remember, the more words in your posts, even if they aren't yours and have no relevance, still count towards well, nothing at all, but don't let that stop you sunshine, because you are special ! 9. Never, ever use the "Add Reply" button, because this just opens a blank window to post in. Always use the "reply" button because that way you look important by having massively huge posts, with multiple embedded quotes, and your plithy one word comment on the end. 10. Feel free on your first day to tell members that have been here for years and have thousands of posts, about how your 2 posts means you know more than everyone else. Don't be upset when they point out your obvious errors and lack of knowledge, simply resort to using profanities and calling them names. That'll teach them ! 11. Do not EVER read the forum rules. After all, they aren't your rules, so why should you have to obey them ? You've consented to grace this site with your presence, you should be allowed to post what ever you want ! 12. Remember that while Google is a great search engine, it is beneath you to do your own searches. Simply ask your questions on TV and let others do all the searching for you ! That can save you hours of having to figure out things like proper spelling, or rooting through useless links. Let someone else do it and just give you the pertinent results. And if you don't like those results, feel free to insult those idiots for not knowing exactly what you wanted, even if you didn't specify it or really know what you were looking for in the first place ! 13. Now that you have joined, please allow the other members the opportunity to bow at your feet. A simple sarcastic retort is all they require in way of thanks for you granting them that privilege. The ability to bask in your newbie glow is probably more than they deserve, but you are a humble and generous. (I'm sure there are plenty more rules that can be added to this guide) [\quote] i like number 8 - btw that brings me up to 141 already [\quote] 8 is a horrible rule, don't you know anything?!?!!?11! 8a is the best! [\quote] So true! This one drives me bonkers. [\quote] When you hit the reply and/or quote button - fiddle about with the [ quote] and [ / quote] parameters - perhaps even swap a few / & \ - to screw around with the embedded previous quotations - your fellow forum members will figure out what the <deleted> you meant to post eventually. (for those that loved 8 & 8A - tell me this one didn't put them to shame ) and if you think the thread has been dormant for too long, you can always Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Don't forget to add wieght to the thread by copy-pasting entire books lifted online. If you can't find a book - entire wikipedia page, including the menu and links - everything but the images. Some kind people in Buddhism are not like that at all, though. They tell you to go read the entire library before you can come back and post anything. Shuts up most of us. They post messages like: Please read buddhasomethingsomehereloka.org/iwonteveropenthispageinmylife.pdf - there's a really good point there that answers all your questions. Yeah, right. Care to tell us what it is? It's a 5MB download in really small letters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerryd Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Still not get it What it means is, after a short time, other topics get replies, and that places them higher up the page. The newer the latest reply, the higher on the page it is. For example, this post I'm making, at the moment I post it, it will be the newest reply of any other thread in this forum. That will place it at the top of the index (temporarily). However, if a thread does not get any new replies for a while, it will start "falling" down the list, as other threads get more, newer replies. So, every once in a while, someone will post a reply in a thread, which has the effect of "bumping" it back to the top of the list, for a little while at least. Sometimes the person that did that will make the "Bump" or "Bumped" comment, to indicate that they just did it to bring the thread back up list, where it will be seen by more people. Khao jai mai ?

Koo82 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Rule 50: Enter every 10 to 15 words (same as using msn / yahoo chat) so your post looks long. The one eyed avatar is the champion Rule 51: Call anyone who loves Khun Thaksin a troll. Rule 52: Say "This thread is bs and should be closed" to prove that you're super. Rule 53: Use BIG fonts to emphasize or people won't have a clue what you're talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggomaniac Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 # 151 to insure LOTS of replies and AGREEMENT and RESPECT from the expats & moderators; do yet ANOTHER post on the travesties faced by farangs. Complain about the good deal on prices the Thais get, how they burn their garbage and offend you in other ways, like with barking dogs. Remember that every moderator has a copy of Lonely Planet and seek the BEST amenities at the CHEAPEST prices that slave labour will provide. Any 'hard done by' story gets you extra points!

Kerryd Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 changing the title a little bit folks(disclaimer ) And was thinking this is a serius and educationel thread It is ! Well, maybe it's more of a humourous and educational thread. Only in reverse. Pretty much everything posted here so far is the opposite of what you should do. People are highlighting the things that other posters do that are really irritating. While some are things that even long time posters do, often it is the new posters (newbies, or newbs) that do the most irritating things. Judging by this thread, it seems everyone has a pet peeve about the way other people post. Some will be irritated by this post, and no doubt some will be forced to reply to it for fear they will lose their sanity if they don't ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koo82 Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 (edited) Complain about the good deal on prices the Thais get, how they burn their garbage and offend you in other ways, like with barking dogs. How they burn plastic bags, plastic bottles, tin cans.... inside the garbage disturbs me. Can the tin cans become soil after being burnt? I can't stand smelling when they burn these. Dry leaves ok. Paper ok. But not those plastic ones! For barking dogs, there's nothing I can do except to kill them. When I go out wanting to beat them to stop them from barking, they stop barking before I reach them and run towards me and play. When I go into the house, they bark again. I open the door, they stop barking. If I catch them barking, I can hit. But if they don't bark, I can't hit. They don't understand.

Koo82 Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Somtam is a hot word. Farangs and non-farangs might think somtam is very smelly and nasty that only Thais can eat. Not sure what they really mean but this word is used quite often in political discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
