The Dink Network

Some of the 'close this thread' arguments might come from people who have seen a certain dinker in the past who was discussing his beliefs in a lot of threads. At a certain moment he was posting like a third of all the messages on the board. Some people might be remembered of him when they hear you defend your points.

On the other hand I think most people calling for this thread to be taken down weren't even there at that time... I guess it's just a case of limited taste along with the unstoppable desire to read all posts on the forum.
