The poster of the thread with the "pre-post" that inspired your thread link in the OP actually post a quality thread after his pre-post that does just that. The fact that this poster actually came up with something much more significant, and substantial than just a "word" or "claim" renders your thread on Razimus original post obsolete, imho. I feel that this need to be addressed as you use a link your own thread attacking this poster in your OP on this thread.
Mysteriously after posting the original thread the instances of this pre-post phenomena declined but the actual cases of people making good quality threads that have evidence or some form of explanation as to how the OP came to a conclusion increased. I think that could be called a slight victory for everyone who contributed especially

In response to the link, the author Razimus actually did a really good job in actually making a case for his claims. If your would be fair you would link this and point it out. As you don't, I will. www.abovetopsecret.com...

I am in no way endorsing Razimus, but feel that he actually "made good" on his claims with a well thought out, well constructed video explanation. Last time I checked his "pre-post " was not a T&C violation.
I don't really see the point of your thread.
Posting replies on the actual threads that fit in to this ilk should be enough, creating a whole new thread, what does it add, really. I think this belongs in Rants in BTS personally but considering your links don't support your arguement probably renders it in Skunk works as we see alot of that poor behaviour.
I presented probably one of the BEST threads here in a while

It's not working for me. Do I need to do it in a Scottish accent?

Oh, now I've got a story that I've been looking for a place to post.
A couple of days ago my housemate came out of the bathroom after a shower and a shave with blood trickling down from the top of his head. Right side, just in front of the hairline.
I pointed it out and he went to clean up but when he came back there was an identical wound on his left side.
Imagine the fun I had suggesting he was sprouting horns
But now I wonder, was it really something sinister?
Can anyone suggest how I should persuade him to let me look for signs of a tail?
Or does anyone know how long horns take to grow?
I'll keep watching him and maybe in a couple of weeks I'll come back and let you know if he has indeed turned into a demon.
And does anyone know the magic word that could bind him or make him grant me wishes?

Just dont do what I did with the MARA thing. You'll end up ripping the ass off your jeans.
Well this particular fantastical word manifesto-contificating-promto-plasmic-podger, works best when said like this (closest example I can give)
Be careful though, it can unleash a demon, I know because I have not done this. I found the word written on my forehead one morning after a night out...WEIRD

While I can appreciate where you are coming from, my thought is that with any post, you can't please all the people all the time.
If you choose to leave, that is up to you, or whomever posts such a remark.
You have too much to say, from what I have seen of your threads, and posts. Why are you so concerned about other people?
Surely, your enlightened outlook on things, has much to offer us.
This is fluff, and you can do much better than this!

I see this thread as quality control.
He is just outing the attention seekers and story tellers.
How is that not a good thing??I hate having my time wasted so some kid can have a laugh at us atsers.
