I have pointed out that someone went back and edited a post in the 1,000,000 Post Thread and I claimed that it rarely happens in that thread because people just make the edit in the Shoutbox and are done with it.


@jack is claiming that it happens "almost all the time":

is that it happens almost all the time everywhere.

So this is a simple challenge to @jack for him to display some integrity and find some examples of posts in the 1,000,000 Post Thread where we will see the system added test "Last edited: "

Take your time, @jack.

Just post 5 examples from before right now (I just want to remove the opportunity for you to make a bunch of edits there and SPAM this thread).

@The Prowler

Can you give me one good reason why I shouldn't move this to the Meltdown?

Because it has nothing to do with Meltdown and there is no reason for people to spam or lose their shit in this thread.

This thread will provide information to people about how the message system works here.

I have been a member for a while and never really knew how the "Last Edited" stuff works, especially in regards to activity in The Shoutbox.

Helping people become more informed is exactly why threads should be in General Discussions.

Alright Prowler. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt here. Let's see how it goes.

Please remove any posts that are against the spirit of the thread. I think some people might want to bury this with spam, etc. because they do not want other people to gain an understanding of how "Last Edited:" stuff works with the 1,000,000 Post Thread and Shoutbox.

A persecutory delusion is a false belief that someone is being harmed or threatened by another person or group of people. People with persecutory delusions may believe they are being spied on, mistreated, or targeted.

Symptoms
  • A person may believe that others are trying to harm them, even when presented with evidence to the contrary

  • They may feel vulnerable and paranoid, and may try to defend themselves

    • They may experience anxiety, depression, and fear
    • They may become isolated or suicidal

Okay, I think this should be opened-up so everyone can help @jack in The Challenge.

I should be able to find the two recent examples pretty quickly...

Okay, I found the two made on this past Monday.

The one made by @The Question that prompted me to accuse him of a cover-up:


And the one made by me as I was researching the behaviour of edits in SB and 1,000,000 Post Thread:


I have not been able to find any more.



But I got you 40% of the way through The Challenge, @jack.


Only three to go!!!


Again, I invite everyone to participate.

Remember, you just have to find a post in the 1,000,000 Post Thread that has the system-generated text "Last Edited:".

Okay, so I see that people have looked and looked and looked and......found nothing!!!!


So, does anybody know what we learned about when we see the system-generated text "Last Edited:" in the 1,000,000 Post Thread?

Well, that when someone goes back pages and pages in the 1,000,000 Post Thread, it is probably because they are...

Covering something up!!!!


So, does anybody know what we learned about when @jack claims something and someone Challenges him to defend his position here in General Discussion where he cannot SPAM the question away?

Looks to me like he's just trying to reprosecute his lie.

Can you please move this to meltdown?

Thanks in advance.
Well, let's not go that far. I wouldn't consider this a Meltdown thread. I'm giving Prowler the benefit of the doubt on this one.

Keep on topic please.

Thanks.

It is always a good thing if people can be well-informed about "How Things Work"...including how the "Last edited: " feature works here.

@jack seemed to be confused about it, but now he has learned that it is very rare that someone edits a post in the 1,000,000 Post Thread.

It is important for moderators to be impartial.

Regarding whether or not I like you, I will not comment here.

I will say that I am a little sad that you said that you do not like me here in General Discussion. But those are the dangers of being a Master Flamer. Some people take it personally.

Whatever, I just don't anyone accusing me of being unfair.
