Howmanheyman 32121 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I think the idea of multiple posters thinking that their names and facebook identities are posted all over a forum when only they can see the image in question is amusing If I'm in a minority, so be it.Is that what it was?

Rayvin 5131 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 (edited) Is that what it was? In the early days of facebook you could set up a link that 'reflected' a person's profile picture and name back at them if they were logged into facebook. Only they could see this, but the uninitiated wouldn't know that only they could see it. Thus the joke is, the OP posted the link stating that the person in the picture was a 'proper mincer' and everyone who looked at it and who was logged into facebook, would see a picture of themselves. Thus, loads of people kick off, threaten legal action, report abuse to admins, etc. From page 10 onwards they copied the link into their posting signatures, and then posted in the football section on NO which meant that posters who only posted in that forum wouldn't have this thread as a reference, and wouldn't have the joke revealed on reading through a few posts - they'd just assume it was legit. It's fucking funny how enraged some people get in that thread, followed by the realisation that they've been had.

The Fish 10543 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 So the forum was about to die in 2007, i arrived 2008 and saved the day, that's what we're saying here right? The forum dies every year, and then is reborn from the ashes like an inbred gay bar from the flames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21566 Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 bantz Rufus, I feel, is not actively participating in banter, but he's aware of it happening. He is a conscientious objector to the banter. He knows it's there – listen, we've all done banter, lads, we've all had fun – but he has known since the age of three that one bad photograph will ruin his inevitable ascent to Prime Minister, so he's sticking with the hands-in-pockets lean-on-the-wall Hugh-Grant-plays-a-charming-if-uninspiring-poetry-teacher-in-a-high-budget-90s-rom-com pose that has seen him right so far. The Daily Mirror can't have a field day with that on election day 2044, can they? So, all in all, for these three, a lowly 3.3/10 banter score. https://www.vice.com/en_uk/article/calculating-the-exact-amount-of-banter-in-that-photo-of-those-eton-schoolboys-who-met-putin?utm_source=vicefbuk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Paxman is a proper Partridge there. Recommend the Adam Buxton Bowie specials and podcasts. They're superb and look at a lot of what Bowie was doing with his own website in the early days. There's a particulalry good story about Dara O'Kearney who Bowie befriended as his biggest fan online and brought him to gigs and shared ideas on what the internet was and would become O'Kearney wrote about it here and includes reference to that Paxman interview.

Gemmill 43221 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Aye those podcasts are mint. I'm a latecomer to Buxton but he's an insanely likeable and funny bloke. Bit like me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
