People have done it before so they're listed as last post in every subforum on the index page, I remember Rats doing a hostile takeover one night, many years ago.

This charming fellow here: http://www.cookdandbombd.co.uk/forums/index.php?action=profile;area=showposts;u=8153 he was one of the DSMO guys, and is one of the guys who has tried to flood the forum with shit new threads to cause chaos and consternation.

I fell in love with talk radio when I was growing up, and I hated the hosts who would cut off crank callers in a panic. The best hosts were always the ones who would sit back and hear them out, let them exhaust their material. The caller would usually hang up out of embarrassment. I think that's been a big influence on me, and on how I've tried to run this place for the last 18 years.

Has there ever been a time when one CABer has been listed as the last person to post in all the threads?
Has anyone ever been tempted to become that CABer?

Being a North American CaBer, the opportunity is available to me most evenings. It is only an enormous amount of self restraint that stops me (and others like me) from taking over.

This is good to know. Might have a crack at taking this joint over a bit later. Just post loads of really mental shit. You won't know what's hit you.

I did the main page thing once:



Though to be fair I'd posted genuine replies to four of the forums, and then added brief replies to the other three out of boredom.

Harry Enfield, Lee and Lance.

that sounds right too, did peep show also use it? Can we get some footage so i can get some closure and go to bed please.


gib

Many thanks.

What's the Peep Show one where they both fail the day and resign themselves to making a tent indoors, i need to know if that uses a similar line.

I can wait, day off tomorrow and home alone.
