More Goady Fuckers

Can we agree that if a poster starts a thread with a goady OP and doesn't return, they are a goady fucker. Can we also agree that if they haven't returned within the first three pages, they probably aren't going to.

What did you put in the message box sooty? I put Goady Fucker? Grin

Guess HQ will know what I mean?

I think I'm going to report the grammar school one. The OP has been back but is more goady with every post.

Ok I'll report. I'm thinking about the feminist one and the grammar school one just now but there are always loads more.

MNHQ always say they love reports. And have said that they will look in to potential goady fuckers.

So report it.

I don't think the users 'can agree' about it (we don't have MNHQ tools to look at posters properly).

And there are probably thousands of reasons why someone might start a thread and not come back within the time another post might expect.

But I really don't think you can do anything about someone behaving weirdly on the Internet.

And why not come back later and answer the many questions raised?

I'm thinking more about those posts that are general, not personal, a contentious topic and where responses come in really fast. The ones where it's someone's 'first post' or they say they have name changed, in other words no posting history.

If the idea is to generate debate with good intentions, why start a thread at a time when you're not available to join the debate.

No. Because life can get in the way of returning to MN.

And what might be goady to you might be genuine to some poor poster.....who makes that call?
