tl;dr

"tl;dr"

I think it should be punishable by banning too.

 

[Welshy]

i am being slightly facetious, and playing a bit of devils advocate. sometimes i just like to argue a losing argument to test the vigour of people.

i have never posted tl;dr , but i argue that maybe instead of not allowing posters to do so, may be a disadvantage to a poster as he would not be privy to the possible negative aspects of his post .

it seems to me that banning people for posting their opinion about a posts longevity is a free speech issue more than a need to keep things tidy and in order. and with that said, i would advise that people continue with thier succinct abbreviations just as long as nobody gets hurt in the process.

Could the creator of the thread not just go by the number of thread views to replies?

I don't see the problem with it, just the same as the reason for banning is "why bother inputting at all?" and the often posted "don't like; don't read" (dl;dr? ) then the same kind of applies here.

Pfft this is so E/N

 

[Kreeeee]

Might be a sensible idea to ban :/, +1234 etc. In for a penny in for a pound dude.

Yeah if tl;dr is banned then :/ should DEFINITELY be banned as it's almost identical. Just spam without a meaning, but gilly uses it a lot so no chance.

Any chance of it getting put in the FAQ, or would it be better to have it auto starred out ?

 

[Gilly]

Nope, just gonna ban people.

Yah that makes good sense. I like things that make perfect sense, like this. Lets hear it for common sense .

Totally disagree. With ':/', which I use often, its representing a dissapointed, suprised or disagreeing negative reaction to a post.

tl;dr means absolutely nothing other than 'look at me troll'.

Well, it also means 'OP has written a stupidly long post, what a knobber'. Which is just as valid lol. I'm all for it going though, this isn't SA.

I suppose, but to me it reads as ' omgwtfbbq!'. I find it quite rude, I would much rather people typed what you just wrote.

 

[Biohazard]

I'd ban more than this if I had my way.
