[QUOTE=KorJax;39658250]I wonder if there will ever be a time when an idiot cull is done on FP and nobody actually posts[/QUOTE]
with a forum of over 40k active members, hah will never happen
It's like watching a person pressing a button which says "DO NOT PRESS!"
[QUOTE=GeneralSpecific;39658265]I don't know about you, but I never facecheck links from internet forums. It isn't difficult to check the url. And if you are worried about accidentally posting in an idiot cull, then be even more cautious.[/QUOTE]
Will be, thanks.
[QUOTE=postal;39658142]idk post in it and ask him[/QUOTE]
Just read the ban reason "Idiot Cull"
Makes sense...
Garry shouldn't have banned anyone yet. He should have waited a day or so as now, no one is touching the thread after realizing it's real
Now do it in the OIFY
He should unban everyone in the thread, wait for people to start posting, then restart the idiot cull
It would be too obvious the next time.
[QUOTE=Kirbyfactor;39658235]People can make a fake URL (for example, a link to a new article) to click on.[/QUOTE]
Hover over link. Check URL on bottom of window. Doesn't work if you're mobile? Too bad.
May Garry deliver us.
How many idiot culls have we had now? Surely the idiots must be running low on cannon fodder to throw into the line of fire?
We must start a cull in fast threads now before it's too late!

first goal
Why is he banning people in that thread so quickly?
You're supposed to let the posts amass for a few days so everyone thinks it's safe THEN ban
what is going to happen on June 4th, 2013?

it was too obvious THIS time.
[QUOTE=Itachi_Crow;39659574]it was too obvious THIS time.[/QUOTE]
I have not been here long enough to know there were previous idiot culls. It kinda works but the amount of banned morons isn't high enough.
The only people who are posting in it are people with there alt accounts I believe, I mean this does guarantee the stupidest of members to be banned but would have been better with a comedy hurr option.

It is the day where even Garry is fed up with waiting for Half-Life 3, and thus promptly announces that he is going to make it himself with Max.

also, is there any comprehensive data on how many bans mods perform per week or so? i'd love to see some figures considering the sheer amount of dunces that lurk the darker corners of FP.

I'm interested in that to.
I'l write a small website that shows collected data in a neat little graph.

[QUOTE=Gulen;39642148]Pretty sure you can put in your card without having an account. Just click "Pay with a debit or credit card" when you go to checkout.[/QUOTE]
Bit late, but this doesn't really help me too terribly much. If you link a card to an account, and then try to pay with that option, it will say it is already linked to an account and forces a sign in. Of course, limited accounts cannot remove cards. I feel like I'm being treated as a criminal because paypal refuses to accept my banking information.
Oh well, Gold isn't really [i]that[/i] important anyway.
so instead of fixing the problem with GD's thread display, garry just changed the viewing threshold to hide all threads more than 5 days old?

Because I love you guys. And I don't want to feel totally useless right now.[/QUOTE]
If I click a link that I did not post and it's exploited to autopost in that thread, do I get perma'd as well or if I at least mention that I clicked another users link will I be exempt and the guy who posted the exploit get perma'd?
I don't want to click any links right now because you KNOW someone is enough of a dick to try it....:v:
