valuable new posters

part "nakh isnt gone hes just fractured"

but im p sure theyd be better socks in that case

latebloomer ran better socks too otherwise a contender

obv the germanic sock machine run out of a london pub is real and is the underlying cancer of the board

quite, the best socks were made in America

I’m surprised we’re not targeted more. It doesn’t take mucj to cause havoc on this board.

It doesn’t take much to cause havoc in a rest home either but where’s the sport

Hahaha

i for one am very active, if you know what i mean!

The joke’s the same but the content’s always fresh ❄️

in death race 2000 you score extra points for the elderly idk

for some reason i was thinking infinity symbol guy implied he sometimes reviewed music in a professional capacity but that was probably wrong or a bluff

artful smokescreen

i don't want to live in a world where people review music in an unproffesional capacity

i thought infinity symbol might have been "uh oh i'm having a fantasy"

that was what I thought too, for some reason that I no longer recall

I have no concept of what that poster was like

xp - i thought the same because at one point one went away, the other appeared, and they seemed similar - but it was at a time where we were at "peak symbol name" for ilx posters iirc

lol I never even noticed infinity symbol standing out as being any different from all the other ilxors that merge into an amorphous lump. there are a few I register as being particular individual posters but not that many tbh. What were his worst posts?

Lots of posts about the size of his dick and how much sex he had

Don't know any of these people, must be going to the wrong, or right, threads.

I think it’s safe to assume that the posts about all the cool sex he has are as credible as his posts about all the cool sox he has

I will miss infinity

i'm not sure what exactly is under discussion here. i have no comment on infinity symbol. posting 11 years (and before that as whatever i posted as) through most of my 20s there were some rough posts in there that i would apologize for (several were last week, unfortunately) and would prefer were never seen by human eyes and i was often too familiar with my ilx friends which i chalk up to reading the board hundreds thousands of hours but posting very little after, like, 2010 + relative anonymity (but i linked to articles i wrote with my full name on them! and my book! partly i guess people that knew me and who i talked to on aim or irl stopped posting here, though, and i think part of maintaining ilx credibility is posting enough that people don't have to look up your past posts and see you telling the world horrible things about yourself) and a limited number of options for ungoogleable and mostly sympathetic places to spill my guts.

reading threads about regular posters everyone apparently hates is so depressing, it makes me feel like i'm not reading closely enough or something because for most of them i have no opinions beyond "oh yeah i do remember seeing that dn on a lot of posts"

and because i overpersonalize everything it makes me wonder what obnoxious posting habits i have that people will complain about when i'm gone (probably overpersonalizing everything)

infinity was very schticky and an extreme outlier

consistently terrible (but otherwise unremarkable)

new board etc

“reading threads about regular posters everyone apparently hates is so depressing, ”
^^^

i dunno about apparently hates apart from wins but thing about wins is that its more he has a dry critical eye when categorising these things imo

i just amnt sure that infinity actually exists which is obv a different thing

It’s a bit obtuse to act like everyone’s randomly laying into some earnest unassuming poster here. That dumb valedictory thread says it all, this was a dude who was going out of his way to get a reaction - the fact that it fell flat and only produced a mild eyeroll is neither here nor there (although it sums up his posting career quite well)

dylannn your rap posts/threads were always dope

Infinity constantly talked about boning

Threads where people talk about boning are threads that I don't read tbh.

It was a travel thread!

He’d bring it up whenever

i don't read travel threads either! honestly there's probably a lot of awful shit people say that i miss because it's in the middle of a conversation about the cure or something

Could have done with him in the Belle & Sebastian thread.

fold yr hands child you bone like a peasant

The poster that infinity symbol most reminded me of was Calum

Hopefully he’s on to better things. In the cold light of day, I feel like we should lay off infinity sign. If he’s reading this it can’t feel good... even if he was troll-y

I was shit talking too so i’m not throwing stones. Just feel like it should be remembered he never made this a hostile place.

Ban fake treeship

xp
imo you are wrong about that, but I'm not going to spend time digging through old posts for evidence

Yeah he was noxious

I mean it is obviously nice to think he stopped posting because he suddenly got a job or a girlfriend or simply grew up, and if he’s lurking that is very sad (for him I mean - obv it is happier for us than him posting); I’d feel bad about pointing out his inadequacies in the very low-stakes game of being popular on the unpopular messageboard ilx if it weren’t for the fact that he was clearly kind of a prick

I found him good natured usually. He was glad to be ilx's house churl/boor though and that's never been welcomed here fbow

i'm sorry, i'm missing something - did they self-ban or something?

it’s a low stakes game but they play for keeps — ilx the movie. xp

Retired, karl. And claimed they were not an individual but a collective.

ilx is funny like that, most places embrace content-free boorishness

ah, thanks treeship

a collective? ok, gotta go re-read the thread, sorry
