On the move again, but I see the Rooster's already tracking this one.

Yeah but again.....only a few duds in the total mix.

I see him pop up every now and then. In essence guerrilla posting. Pop off a few posts, vanish for a while then BAM! a few more, POOF, gone again. Some are decent, others needed a secondary cap. Last time I saw he was around 45. Won't be long now.

Doesn't sound like a runner then. Or anyone to be on a "radar". Following the rules is following the rules, people are allowed to be newbies

It's completely possible to make "quality" posts that still betray your intentions. It may be hard to explain, but it's apparent what the motive is; it's like INGO's Turing Test. On the surface the posts fit, but then it just sticks out, like they're trying to make a post that fits; there's just something that looks like a computer generated automatic reply.

Let's watch - we'll see him hit fifty, send a PM, then probably never hear from him again; the pattern matches a dozen or so in this thread.


C'est le INGO.

Just kind of stood out with 36 of his 45 posts being in the last 3 days and nothing before that for 6 months. Of those 36 it looks like 19 are one line posts. There are even a couple that are one word posts.


Many have been far worse, maybe not a full on sprint, but a definite trot. Curious to see what post #51 will be.

but they're not doing two word posts, bumping 2 year old threads, etc. They're doing the absolute minimum, which is still ok.

the runners of old were a huge pain in the butt. Used to necro-bump about everything, and post the smallest one word posts all over the board. Huge hassle and drove EVERYONE nuts. At least some of these are doing it the right way, even though its still the bare minimum.

The necro-posters were the only ones that really bugged me. You would open a thread and type a response and then feel stupid when you realized it was years old.

I agree.

You can't say I'm a runner.
A "talker", yes.
