Great Dissensus Names

[...]

I thought I must have imagined that other thread cos I didn't think anyone would do it again so soon.

No need to rub it in!

In my head I was on your side... maybe came out differently on the page though, I see that now.

Anybody who posts on 'Best Old Dissensus Posters Names' rather than here is clearly hostile to me and my thread.

What does Beast of Burden or whatever mean though? Is it how many posts you've done or something?

Yeah, I think it's once you hit a thousand. The lower numbers are stuff like Wild Horses and Tumbling Dice, iirc.

Didn't mention Yoghurt Sothoth, though, so doesn't count.

Yeah... that was me all along.

I was wondering about changing the "User Title" thingies - the current set are maybe based on Stones songs, e.g. "Beast of Burden ", and get assigned if people havent made up their own, depending on how many posts you've done

anyone wanna suggest a new scheme?

autechre albums.

Look what version has achieved in only two years of hard work, self-belief, commitment and dedication.

 

[woops]

imagine how much effort and restraint i have exercised in keeping my posting so cogent, pithy and appropriate

i could easily have clogged the forum up even more with terrible tunes and clueless chat

 

[Leo]

or do like luka: instead of writing a post with a paragraph of content, post each sentence individually, as if you're still on twitter with a 140-character limit.

 

[luka]

It helps my train of thought, makes it feel more conversational

 

[luka]

I think of something clever, write it down, post it, while it's still hot

 

[luka]

Then that makes me think of another, connected thing, also clever and then I write that too and post it, keep the energy going

 

[luka]

That's how you make it party time every night. More stimulating and high octane

https://www.dissensus.com/memberlist.php click on the heading to the 'posts' column to sort by who has wasted most time in the last 15 years on here

another nice one is that if you click on the number of 'Replies' that a thread has, on the sub-forum listing or search results, you get a popup which lists the number of posts each person made, and links to them
