[Closed] Who else kills threads ?

[i](shhhhhh, everybody - don't tell him we're here)[/i]

At least I wasn't the last entry this time !

Damn .....

Me, just watch.

No, it's me

I'm sure we had a threadkiller thread only a couple of years ago.

Yep, it was [url= http://singletrackmag.com/forum/topic/no-replies-since-who-is-stws-biggest-thread-killer ]HTS 6 years ago[/url]! Doesn't time fly when you're wasting time on a mountain bike forum?

yeah but how many have you had [closed], that's the ultimate.

I deliberately seek out the most dull and uninteresting threads, where all the nobodies gather, in the hope of going unnoticed.

It seems to happen to me on occasion too. I normally post something surreal or amusing (to me) and all goes dark. Alas, all threads must pass 😥

Yes. Daily

I'm still pissed off my excited thread about the new for new foru.m has been locked because some moderator type decided to steal my glory and start their own, more than 24 hours after it was started.

They could have just changed the title.

Well. It most certainly isn't me.

Testing testing testing.

I seem to be quite good at shutting threads down. Not because they get closed, but because no one replies after I post... (Waits for the deafening silence...)

I often check my "Forum Activity" list. I think the best (worst) I have seen is 6 of the 18 threads listed as having had no activity after I had posted on them.

Beat that 🙂

PS currently showing only 2 but fully expect this to be number 3

4 of the last 7 ! I am very unpopular

Two of the last five...

Me

Just watch, every time...

FFS I consider it a badge of honour when my incisive and definitive post concludes a thread.

Anybody got any biscuits whilst we wait for nothing to happen?

This could be the most intense thing ever. Who will be the one who murders this thread

I had one thread killer, signed by a nice moderator who banned me, so i wrote an elequent well researched request to stay alive and i was then resusitated.

Many, and the thread killer thread from a few years ago. Not HTS' one but the rehash the next year. I guess there's a level banality in what I post!

I started a self-indulgent thread about exactly this question just before the Great Hack, and only got one, rather sarcastic, response.

I am not a thread killer; I commit war crimes against threads.

Nothing more needs to be said after my post.

... and sui, walleater, perkygirl & their chums had a massive thread years ago that started with a discussion about nobody answerignthreads

I thought I was good but the wife does even better. To the point where she's stopped posting.

Stand aside and watch this.....

Watch what?

Scuppered 😀

Come and play on the Political threads, we keep posting the same stuff again and again and they never end, or is it they just feel that way ?

So much so that it's on my CV - which stops at that point...

I'm going to attempt to send the web into a massive spinning loop until it eats itself up

[url= http://singletrackmag.com/forum/topic/who-else-kills-threads/page/2 ]Thread Killers!!![/url]

I've been known to dabble.

*raises eyebrow*

This thread is now dead. 🙂

Shotgun! This thread is mine... End of.

Yeah, I'm not too shabby at this.

IIRC I responded to a couple of McMoonter's threads and that was that.

One about a frankenmower...

Just sneaking back in to see if the thread is still going.

Yep. Good one.

Isn't it really complimentary to end a thread? As in your comment says it all and no one can better it?

It's quite simple really, the best way to kill a thread is to state an indisputable fact.

The fact that it is quite hard to find a fact, no matter how solid, that no one on STW will dispute is actually quite hard, does make this premise somewhat disputable and therefore not really a fact.

Therefore, just posting some random nonsense or even just invoking Hora is the best way to kill a thread?

Well, maybe they realise it's not worth arguing anymore, which sometimes is the same

I can kill my own threads with the first post

Worst thread ever.

And now it is done.

I do it in real life too.
The introduction of facts usually ends most until then lively and intresting debates.

Rubbish, you just made that up

I bet no one posts on here after me 😀

I reckon you're right.

Ok guys. Thread closed.

Worse than having no one post after you is someone who decides "thread closed" for the rest of us 😀

Have we had the final post yet?

I really thought it would be me. 😥

Yay, a thread I won't be the last to post on.

I'm always late to the party so quite often its me..

Ceiling Cat knows.

Hurry up and stop posting, I'm running out of hobnobs and all that's left in the cupboard are lavender shortbreads or a trip to the supermarket!

AndyRT wins.

Drac! He even padlocks'em up for good measure

could just count up who has the most "Nones" in the most recent column of the last 10 pages of their recent replies.

[s]7[/s][s]8[/s]7 here

Sorry folks, my curse will end this thread here

I am currently managing a 50% strike rate :-/

This is a bit like that funny bidding site where the last person to bid, wins.

Can I just say that this is the first time I've posted on this thread?

whoever it is can you please get on that EU referendum thread..

I have a cunning plan. Get the thread closed, Simples.

Now all I have to do is post something offensive like a pair of tits....
