Wry observation that "Preview is your friend."
Post edited by poster, which shows that this poster also forgot to use "Preview."

There are a few rare exceptions, those are when the link is something so surprisingly humorous that the enjoyment of said link would be lessened if the reader has been already warmed about its content. That's rare though.
P.S: This is the generic reply of the lurker who comes out of nowhere, stabs at a secondary unimportant issue and disappears again in the darkness, never to be seen again in the thread.

Reads and rereads entire thread ..... notices an unusual lack of fish thwacking and no cries of "Ni !" . Topic has far less than the minimum required Monty Python / Douglas Adams references :blink:
Instead of adding lacking material , poster wanders far off topic in search of a shrubbery .....

Remark about laziness equaling lack of devotion to forum, despite own lack of posts.

Generic stab at Monty Python and all British humor.
says nothing but wastes space quoting 2 people so post looks sufficiently long

Makes pointless commentary on Marvin the Paranoid Android and God disapearing in a puff of logic when confronted about the Babel Fish,
Adds personal aside that Marvin was probably the most comical character ever created by a writer, ever.

Posts entire content of the "Shrubbery" scene from Monty Python using badly formatted text to indicate it was lifted from an e-mail that had circulated from approximately 1,906 forwardings.
Mandatory edit to fix "speling".

Feeling vindicated, the member who had his post edited out by mod resubmits the entire post.
Member is summarily banned.
Member rejoins forum under a new handle expecting to find other members rushing to his aid. Member becomes angry upon logging in and seeing 7 posts by various members saying the admin did the right thing and that we don't need members like that sullying our pristine forum. Member then posts an inflamatory statement about the elitist good old boy network present in the forum and how he now sides with all the previously banned members. Name calling, ranting, and raving follow.
Member's IP is banned.
Smilies by other members follow.

Gets banned by supporting original poster. Other posters are swept up in the ensuing ban frenzy when the mods smell blood in the water. Membership plummets by 8%.

Recently unbanned, posts obsequiously in honor of Absent Admin. Attempts to build a rallying point for others to support the present Administration. Gets Banned again after flooding admin's e-mail box with goatse and Tubgirl pictures.
