ricarleite by now you should be aware of your posting habits. Fairly often you post minimal length comments from your heart. In this case, it wasn't on topic and can be viewed as anti-conversational and definitely anti-topic. So it begs the question, why drag the thread down into your own displeasure, just ignore the thread, move on to something where you can be additive to the topic discussion. (if that's your goal, it might not)
As for the "hit and run" aspect of your posting habits. (it's nice to see your taking this issue serious by reviewing the replys) But with some frequency, i've seen posts asking you for clarification and they go unreplied. Of the forums here, the Off-Topic arena has members who like to post off hand comments for their own self-pleasure. It's fine, it often takes away from serious debate, but we're all part of the problem at times.
This has nothing to do with Lord Phillock, this is a valid topic and a fun idea to play around with. (maybe restart it in the General Topic section) I was commenting on ricarleite's non-constructive comments.

Let me present you the way that I post on this forum. First, you'll hardly find me on a single computer for a long amount of time, except when I'm at work at my company headquarters, not travelling on business reasons or located at clients, which is rather common. Also, you'll hardly find me not busy for long amounts of time. As I work for a single corporation AND do some independent, outside jobs and also commited myself to other stuff such as a future business of my own, I hardly have enough time to give except when I'm awaiting for something, be it a batch process being executed, a database query, a file being sent, an e-mail I'm awaiting, or maybe some time before or after lunch time, at the mornings, or at the evening. For the whole time I'm at a computer, with some exceptions, I leave a browser opened on some websites, including OT.com. For this reason I never log in - so sometimes I tend not to read PMs for weeks or even months. So every once in a while I tend to update the off topic page (and sometimes check the general star wars to see if there's anything meaningful on that mess), and reply to what I feel I want to.
You may see my replys as non-topical, not related to the subject of the conversation or deprived of a meaning, but that's what I have to add to the conversation. Sometimes it's a in-joke related to the topic, but he fact that you don't get it dosen't mean it's not there. Sometimes it's a mere comment on a different post that might not be the one directly above mine. You'll never see me trolling a thread with abuses, really non-meaningful conversations or non-sensical replies, even if it feels like it to yourself.
Yes, sometimes I do lose the stream of conversation I was having before, sometimes leaving a question posed by myself or a comment unreplied. This may happen for a number of reasons: sometimes I get away from the forum for some time and lost track of the topic, tha might get several pages beyond the point I've last read. And sometimes the questioning gets unanswered (on a almost arrogant way) for too long I don't bother anymore - this is particularly true to the fan edits threads.
Also do take in mind the fact that, being from Brazil, I don't have english as a first language, and I do make mistakes from time to time, misunderstand sentences or topics, fail to catch on some cultural references not present here, and commit some mistakes due to language barrier. This was most common on my old Politics posts - which caused me to avoid long posts on that specific topic because, honestlyh, it was getting ugly.
So if you wanted me to go on checking on a started conversation and post long, meaningful lines of text, here it is, you desire is fulfiled. Also, I'll try my beast to avoid the sort of postings YOU don't seem to desire (and so far such a desire mentioned only by yourself) so I can behave the way YOU want people to behave here. I suppose what I've said about some old trolls here is true, the ammount of posts by some user is not related to their quality, and your 400+ posts against my 6000+ indicate on how you are 12 times more focused on proper replies and meaningful conversations than I am.
Lord Phillock, don't take anything I've said as personal. I was only commenting on how the lack of activity on the SW community, along with a feeling of desperation due to the recent actions taken by Lucasfilm, have thrown ourselves into making simple games to keep the activities going. But maybe all that meaning behind the *sigh* comment I did was not clear enough.
It's kinda like whan I say that I should use a laugh track here so that some members of this forum may realize when I'm doing a joke or not. I suppose all these years of canned laugh sitcons have messed with their definition of humor. Well, some people have their own definitions of what communication is.
