Upon reading Avatara's summary of this past year, it is apparently an era of locking...

And I am also apparently gone...

You can only have so much Trash Talk. If you allow too much to exist at one time, it condenses into an e-hole so powerful that it could swallow the internet.

I think it swallows itself when it reaches critical mass.

Because "Trash Talk" doesn't mean "hellhole."
SA is a lot more tolerant than most other mods would be in his situation (and he's hella more tolerant compared to how I would be). While it's true ATT probably has one of the highest chances that any given topic will be locked, it's because the topic comes along and gets spammed horrendously.
Personally, I am thankful for the thankless work he does here.
Oh, and Laguna too.

Don't you know that we post ATT topics (usually) with the intent of them getting spammed?

I prefer "trolled" to "spammed", it takes more cleverness.

It took me a good 10 minutes to troll gavin's topic. I can't recall spamming anything where it took more than a minute.

Wait... I'm hearing 'troll' and 'skill' being used in the same sentance.

A good troll takes skill. That's why there are so many bad trolls.

What separates a good troll from a bad troll? They're big things that walk around with clubs...

gav, it's called ATT because this is a place for the zanier members of the board to blow off steam.

A good troll is subtle, yet funny. A bad troll is big, green, and angry.
