"Last Post"
Now.. I got in a bit of a strop about this last week after discovering that the last 8 pages of answers were - in essence - taken up by a few people endlessly posting pointless posts that had nothing to do with the subject matter.

It ruins the pages, and renders the last few decent stories utterly pointless: few people are interested in reading the result of some snot-bubbled giggling social-'tards who find "hur hur I got the last post" to be amusing. Even worse; the main offenders have voted for bugger-all answers. They give *nothing* to the QOTW.

It has been an issue for some time now, but is now getting steadily worse.

The regulars know me well enough by now to know that "getting to the front page" isn't my goal. This - much like last week - is a vain attempt to get someone so sit up and listen.

Ready?

Sorry... I hate doing this, but ... you know... make yourselves heard.

*cough cough... testing testing...tap tap*

Register your desire to see the "Last post" bollocks eradicated by clicking "I like this"

If you - like me - wish to see the offenders strung up and publicly flogged, click the damned thing twice.

- That is all... really... sorry about the "if you wanna" etc crap...

*sigh*

Too predictable,.

# They liked 2 pictures, 0 links, 0 talk posts, and 9 qotw answers.

Not a bad rate there sunshine... you liked about 2 posts a year.

Maybe, just maybe, you should spend time looking for "clickworthy" posts instead of vying for last place?

QED boyo, QED.

Christ
I missed the last couple of days of last week's QOTW, I had no idea it was that bad. Fucking hell, do these people have b3ta tourette's or something? An uncontrollable urge to post shit?

I don't want to see anyone strung up or flogged
However, I agree with you Humpty on principle. I did find the last 10 pages of last week's question a tad tedious. I gave up trying to find the posts to which I had wanted to respond.
The majority of the content was harmless, friendly banter, which might have been better conducted on a thread. As it transpired, it did somewhat defeat the object of qotw, in my humble opinion. Most of the people involved are favourite qotw contributers of mine, of whom I am fond. So I went to the pub instead.

p.s. I am especially fond of you Humpty. The fact that you are a decent bloke is evident from your posts - particularly the one about the 11-year old boy on 'interweb x

I rarely ever
read the QOTW on a Wednesday/Thursday for this very reason.
