Seems a bit hypocritical to make fun of ole Scorpy for seeking this out and posting about, making edits, etc. As a waste of time and weird..... I would say all of us participating in this thread are being pretty unproductive and must have seen something in it to bother making a post....

If you don't like the content, feel free to skip it and move on..... we can let the mods do their job and analyze whether the content is worthwhile.

I am a bit sad he did spend the time editing the page to remove some minor jokes at his expense... it's challenging enough to get edits to fly under the radar from their own mods... if anything we should be encouraging those wiki pages to be trolled let alone a silly page such as the cp wiki.... don't think anyone is taking it too seriously.

Not so much as it’s a waste of time, it’s just blatant attention seeking

scorch, my man, why would I seek out attention when I know so much of it will be negative? i'm not a masochist, pal

1) guy reads thing
2) guy laughs at absurdity of thing
3) guy shares thing

there's the thought process, take it or leave it

Dumb threads are sometimes the best threads. Lighthearted threads are better than boring, depressing ones. The more thread starters on here, the better. If you have an idea for a better thread, nobody is stopping you from starting it.

I still like the Bloomingdale's executive training program for him.

I only try to help when sureLoss hasn't posted it for, say, a minute. Even omnipresent figures can't catch everything.

All I can say is phew. I'm glad we have someone making sure we don't suffer through that torturous extra minute of not knowing something we don't know that we don't know.

Public lynchings are fun too though so why not both?

I don't see why it matters at all who posts a thread, or when. But I've noticed that many, many people take it very seriously on here.

Personally, I really couldn't care less. I enjoy posting threads -- it helps me stay informed, it helps others, and best of all, it's free.
