Thread Hijacking

[BabyFacedAbortion]

What's the point? Honestly, it's screaming for attention on a message board. It's rude. And it's usually drifted towards something stupid...why can't we just keep our minds focused on one thing at a time? I mean, if it bores you, can't you just go to another thread? my 2 cents.


go ahead..hijack it..you know you're gonna anyway..

[FreeVenice]

I agree completly agree. . . you deserve some rep for this one. . .

Keep the conv. about the title, that's why it has a title, this is not just a chat room you know. . .

[KL4D4]

what are we complaining about now?

[halfassedjediknight]

how about them padres?!

:D

[BabyFacedAbortion]

There's a difference between complaining and seeing if I'm a total bitch lol.

[ericwt]

It sounds like you have somone in mind, ?

[BabyFacedAbortion]

never.

[ericwt]

But when you said, "go ahead..hijack it..you know you're gonna anyway.."

It really sounded like you were talking to someone in particular.

[BabyFacedAbortion]

in general, lovey ;)

[halfassedjediknight]

lovey dovey

[Matt the Funk]

I think I hi-jack threads on accident sometimes. I miss the big picture a lot...

[40oz]

yea thread hijacking....psh....it disgusts me

[halfassedjediknight]

dontcha think that sometimes subjects stem off into 'sub-subjects' or something? and still pertain to the subject at hand, but not to a T?

[Prunedale]

I might, I ramble sometimes, go figure I get stoned. Srry. :( Or a joke plus I don't like middle eastern internet users. Something could blow

[Skink]

I sometimes veer off on a subject,,,it's not intentional and i usually say I'm sorry or bring myself back on track... the intentional abuse of a few is somewhat apparent of late and it is annoying... I often feel bad for the people that just want a view from members and they just get dumped on... it may seem funny to the peeps that are doing it but,,, it really just shows a real lack of respect,,,the Irony is most of the offenders beg and get reputation points... We all know a big offender is SW,,, she brags about it like it is honorable or something,,,I almost gave her an infraction today because it could be construed as a personal attack maybe indirectly but,,,it is an attack on the thread starter and anyone that is nice and trying to help...

yea exactly.

I'm sorry if I ever hijacked anyone's thread.


Did you know Hi Jacking was also an adjective used to describe the action of saying Hi to Jack ?

[FreeVenice]

Im going to buy a case of that Ale this weekend. . .lol

[surreys princess]

truer words have not been spoken baby girl....

i think i am going to start deleting posts that hijack threads in an ongoing way....this is not the first complaint we have had about it.....

i think it is rude...to veer off once in awhile, that is fine...but to completely hijack it like we see so often here, irritating....

<3

[make it legal]

I really don't think it's intentional most of the time. I can't think of a time I hijacked a thread but from what it seems it's unintentional and some people just seem to do it more than others.

[4gan2ja0]

i do it sometimes, but unintentionally, and i try not to. the threads are meant for that subject and not others. i will now be more aware of my posting:thumbsup:

[notransfer]

give an example of a hijacked thread..

is it like

-'are these females?'

-next post' SORRY BUT UHH WHATS INDICA!?!?1/'

sorta thing?

[KindMidasSoundman]

i do it sometimes, but unintentionally, and i try not to. the threads are meant for that subject and not others. i will now be more aware of my posting:thumbsup:

ditto

[dusto2k3]

its the 15 year olds that think its cool or its funny, sorry if your really 16 ahahah.

[CanaDanKs Inc.]

Guys, we also gotta keep in mind that this is a Cannabis forum.

People post on here stoned...you can't expect 300 stoners to always ALL stay on topic..I mean you know how it is. :jointsmile:

[powerrobbie]

I think its fine that a thread goes off topic sometimes, but there is a few younger kids on here that "Hijack" threads on purpose..all the time...PLEASSSE STOP:D

[BUZz UK]

you don't HAVE to read the posts...

Hello Kettle? This is Pot. You're black.

LOL! You and I jacked about 5 threads one night, but to be fair, nobody else was awake, and we kept it short.:thumbsup:

[slipknotpsycho]

i think i may be guilty a couple of times.. i don't TRY to do it, and if i'm gonna go off topic, it's more often then not, after the first question has already been answered...

also i only go off topic when someone says something or asks something and i make a response to that....

and yes, thread jacking (purposely) gets pretty damn iritating sometimes...

[Nochowderforyou]

The Cadbury Cream Eggs are so delicious. They're filled with a liquid orgy. Easter kicks ass. Not for Jesus, but for the chocolate. :p

[Mean Green Charlene]

I love those cream eggs. I can only eat around 1 or 2 before I feel sick..Do you hate peeps as much as I do?

[Nochowderforyou]

I've never had a Peep, those yellowish marshmallow things, right? I've seen them, but they don't appeal to me. They look, cheap, and gross. I want chocolate,mmmmm *drool* I need a towel. :p

[Samwhore]

eh, you can always block me, and yes, I never do it intentionally, and in the "intentional" posts like "hijack this thread" never grow, it does eventually stop.

While it may be rude, its not like its going to 100% completely gone,

[Mean Green Charlene]

They are sick. Really sick. (I jokingly changed the subject of the thread)
ANYWAYS.

[xfukinxfedxupx]

sorry for bei a noob to the max but is hijacking were you change the subject?

[slipknotpsycho]

eat one and you'l never want to eat another.

[MaryjaneAndHashley]

uhh...I may hijack sometimes but it was not intentional at first, and its still not.

We make jokes about it cause well i think we realized it..

In fact we just talk about stuff, its not like I hijack just for the hell of it

What is it gonna be, 1 reply per person then if that person talks back then dont answer? ;)

[CanaDanKs Inc.]

sorry for bei a noob to the max but is hijacking were you change the subject?

yes sir.

and samwhore, how do you block someone?

[slipknotpsycho]

yes sir.

and samwhore, how do you block someone?

click their name, go to their profile, there's two options in the first dark green bar below their avatar... one is add to buddy list, one is ignore this user... click ignore this user, then click apply or w/e.

[Nochowderforyou]

Slipknot, I was close to beating your Bloody Seal Bounce score. I was off by like, a 100 points. :p Bastard game! and bastard you damn it, you bastard. :D

[CanaDanKs Inc.]

[Samwhore]

*its okay, I got the message, unless you repped him again,

[CanaDanKs Inc.]

Alright all is well.

The reps went where they deserved to go. ;)

it is not up to the people to have to block your rude behaver,,,it is up to you to stop...

[Samwhore]

it is not up to the people to have to block your rude behaver,,,it is up to you to stop...

I know you want me to stop, but like I said, im not the only one to do it,

[Skink]

I know you want me to stop, but like I said, im not the only one to do it,

You are a prime abuser and an example!!!

[smoke it]

whats even worse, people who bring back threads from like 3 years ago

[Skink]

whats even worse, people who bring back threads from like 3 years ago

Yeah,,,thats annoying too but,,, it is just mischievous and not an attack on a member...

[xcrispi]

Im also guilty of this now and then ,
Crazy spuratic thoughts and scatterbrain like m/j induced behavior ?
Peace
Crispi :jointsmile:

[make it legal]

Guys, relax it's just an accident most of the time. We don't need to attack people over it.

[smoking habit]

shut the fuck up samwhore you obviousely do it on purpose. I mean you used to fucking brag about it in your profile or something of the sort. annoying little girl.

[Skink]

Crispi :jointsmile:

We all are guilty to some degree,,,I admitted to it too... The difference is you are helpful and joke a lot,,,that IMO is a sense of humor,,,your primary goal is not hijacking...

[MacWQ33]

If your thread contains the words "alcohol" or "beer", it will most likely be "hijacked" by Slip, Hock, and myself...deal with it...lol.

[Skink]

That' totally understandable... slip and his 40's,,,LOLz...

[napolitana869]

I do it sometimes if someone else started it and said something that got me all worked up. Its not often though.

[slipknotpsycho]

That' totally understandable... slip and his 40's,,,LOLz...

lmao... me and my 40's....

well i love my alcohol.. i actually hated alcohol, til weed started getting harder and harder to find....

it's a cheap readily available resource next to weed... it's no where near as good... but it will do the job o.0

do i talk about my 40's that much? does like everyone know i drink 'em?

[make it legal]

^^^

I didn't know... lol

But then again, who the hell am I?

[Skink]

LOLz...this is a prime example of off topic but it is not vindictive or intentional hijacking...

[Wesley Pipes]

i usually try to make my first post on a thread about the first post that started the thread, basically i'll just read the first post, or first page if there are already a few pages, and say my opinion on the whatever the matter will be using the quick reply at the bottom, then i'll look through the rest of the thread...

but i'll admit i probably do jack threads sometimes but not on purpose, if i see an opportunity to make someone laugh, i will take it :D, and it's usually just a one off post.

[make it legal]

^^

But from what I see, that's usually how it is. I never see someone just blatantly hijack a topic on purpose. But yeah again who the hell am I?


yeah that ^^ wans't meant to wesleys post it was to skinks

[birdgirl73]

Anyone who has conversations knows they diverge and veer off into different directions sometimes. That's called spontaneity. And it's what makes conversations interesting, if you ask me.

Intentional, meant-to-be-obnoxious highjacking is a different thing. But I haven't found "highjacking with malicious intent" to be a common problem here. Not sure anyone could prove malicious intent, anyway. So until Sundance puts something in our forum rules about our taking down threads that we mods judgment-call to have been highjacked with malicious intent, I've got way too many other things to be worried about than diverging conversations. Besides, as someone said earlier, this being a cannabis forum, most highjacking here is likely "high"-jacking.

Yeah see that's what I mean, it happens naturally. I don't even think that SW "malliciously" hijacks threads. Then again, I wouldn't know would I?

This whole thread is kinda messed up though as it was kind of a personal attack on SW just in a subtle but not so subtle way.

[higher4hockey]

so very true.

[Its a Plant]

That's what my instincts are telling me too.

BFA and SW have had their differences in the past as we all know, but to avoid seeing a certain person "jacking off" threads, there IS an ignore feature....

I can somewhat agree with that but the point is valid IMO...

LOL, that really made me laugh :D

So true

Yeah for real, whats the point of starting a whole fucking thread about it, to end up saying go, highjack, i know you're gonna do it anyways

Just skip it.. :wtf:

[make it legal]

Haha jacking off threads. That reminds me of that episode of South Park where they jack off the dog lol.

[Samwhore]

Haha jacking off threads. That reminds me of that episode of South Park where they jack off the dog lol.

pff! lol, I saw that one,

[MaryjaneAndHashley]

OMG, this is so fucking weird, I dont watch southpark that much but i got a site where they got em all (in french) and I watched this one.

[Mean Green Charlene]

shut the fuck up samwhore you obviousely do it on purpose. I mean you used to fucking brag about it in your profile or something of the sort. annoying little girl.
whoaaaaaaaaaaaaa. you sound more like a crack addict than a stoner @_@

Lol I didn't know that but it makes sense..Both are pretty exhibition like. And both seem to like attention.. Is it age?? I don't know.

[meloncoly]

hey guys, I just picked up these buds for $100, you think it was a good deal?

[4gan2ja0]

hey guys, I just picked up these buds for $100, you think it was a good deal?

ohhh man did you get ripped... did you actually get that for 100 or did you just say that? lol
(i realize this is off topic, but if he did get that for 100 wow!)

[FreeVenice]

lol

[timothylearyisdead]

hey guys, I just picked up these buds for $100, you think it was a good deal?

send me a sample and i'll let you know if you got ripped off or not. it MAY take a few samples for me to figure it out though...

[higher4hockey]

hey this is off topic, billion ~check out politics

[Dutch Pimp]

You totally missed the point of his post.

...hi-jack=BuzzKill....

[Reefer Rogue]

Hi Jack.

[delusionsofNORMALity]

i realize that from time to time i may veer radically off topic, but i figure i've got a bit of an excuse. after all these years i only have 128 active brain cells and half of those like to play tricks on me when i'm not looking. we're doing the best we can.

[Willburnit]

why people gotta descriminate the 15 yr olds(im 15) but i bet im more mature than alot of 20 yr olds and i dont hi jack threads

[meloncoly]

if you're 15 and you think you're more mature than most 20+yr olds, you're one sad kid.

[surreys princess]

i highly disagree that this was personal by bfa against samwhore....i know bfa very well, and that isnt like her..she wont beat around the bush, she will tell you straight away if it is about you or someone inparticular...

i think you guys were harsh about bfa's opinion here, and then very rude to use her post as an example to do what she was saying was so annoying to her....i have seen numerous posts hijacked, for no reason...i dont buy that it is cause people are stoned, and there really is a difference between hijacking blatantly and being high..it is a more recent issue than we have ever had here....

i am closing this cause what could have been a constructional criticism post was, as always here, taken to another level....
