SidTheITGuy709225dshit-posting.. u talking about b2plane or this new botting piece of shit user?
Or, what if you're talking about yourself? -
Nanos1437725dIt's me isn't it. :-)
Sometimes I don't get time, since I'm in 3,000+ other forums I have to post in as well !
Sometimes I don't post in those for 10+ years.. -
Let me clear this up - this is only about one person/group - I’ll give a hint: .t3d

Nanos1437725dWhen did the term "shitposting" come into use ?
Wasn't it not so long ago it was called "Off topic" ?
Before then it was just called "conversation"..
Or is the correct term "shit-posting" ?
<-- Interested in historical word use/terms. -
Root8366125d@Nanos Shitposting is purposefully low-quality posts, usually with no point. They’re also usually off topic but totally don’t have to be.

Demolishun2759224dIt is even sadder when all I do is read your shitposts several times a day. Living vicariously through others.

Wisecrack899924d@Demolishun I haven't seen it. I thought his devops posts were interesting. They're like candy, not very healthy or useful, but fun to consume.

Nanos1437724d@Root What's the term for my posts then, since they all have a point !
A conversation branch ?
Or threading as we call it elsewhere. :-)
Here of course, you lot only experience sequential one dimensional chat !
And without read/unread flags. -
Nanos1437724d@Wisecrack Sometimes I even comment to myself, when I've got an update.
Like once when it took me 10 years to find an old review in a magazine of a game I wrote. ( It only sold 6 copies.. ) -
Of course the origins of Shitposting is from 4chan, my favorite sewer site .

You know your life is pretty sad and pathetic when you resort to shitposting on devrant multiple times every single day
