Much as I may dislike the three most noticeable - to me, that is - of your posting misdeeds* I can't fault you on your willingness to keep posting something. At least nobody can say you're one of those useless forum denizens who think that clicking a picture of a hand actually contributes anything to forum activity.
* excessive use of c'n'p and recycling instead of creating new stuff
* monotonous repetition of opening posts whenever anyone dares to deviate even slightly off-topic
* patronising putdowns such as the classic "you're better than that" sneer whenever anyone offers an opinion which isn't to your liking
There are as many opinions as there are posters, so the opinions of almost all posters need to be respected if a forum is to be representative of its community.
So this is a slightly-qualified seal of approval from Kewpie.

That is exceedingly appropriate.
Originally posted by Grampy BobbyIt is quite possible for a superb thread to not attract a single response.

I think you are confusing quantity with quality.
In fact I know you are.
Originally posted by Grampy BobbyIn so far as this thread may be related or in response to my criticism of your behaviour, counting posts and threads is a red herring (as was presumably your intention). The criticism you've been getting from me ~ and others ~ lately has been for your incessant and frequently toxic misanthropic nagging of unspecified numbers of unspecified posters for unspecified transgressions ~ ad nauseam ~ indeed, some might say, beyond parody. The number of posts on word games threads and other threads you may have started has absolutely nothing to do with it.

a question for you.
