Why don't you speak, Joseph? Are you an internet-mute? Or are your Google skills just supposed to speak for themselves?

I thought, by Chud Law, only Devin could start these kinds of threads.

Really? I thought it was allowed in this forum. I just thought only Devin could start a "chewer praise" thread.


I'm not trying to troll or be a dick. I'm honestly curious. Almost all Joseph "P." Brenner does is post links with little to no actual thought/text of his own. It just strikes me as odd behavior for this particular board and I was curious for his actual thoughts on it. That's all.

Apologies if I broke a rule (it's not listed in "the rules").

He's an undercover spambot.

I wasn't calling you a dick joey... Sorry you took it that way. It was just a good-natured josh. You're right, by the way, I think we're allowed to post a thread about other chewers in this particular section. It's just that Devin personally requested that no "Chewer Appreciation" threads be posted. So, I'm not even sure if it's a bannable offense in any case.

Now, in regards to this thread, I have no opinion on Joseph P. Brenner other than that he has an awesome user name.

"When Dogpiling Witch Hunts Fail."

Links can spark discussion. Maybe Joseph just likes reading other Chewers' responses to those links. I'm here to read all y'all's blathering 75% of the time myself. Then I go on post binges. Jospeh Brenner simply has more restraint. Nothing to be chastised over.

That's just it, I'm seriously not chastising or trying to instigate some back-handed witch-hunt.

But in any other thread this would be derailing, no? I can't exactly ask him about this in a thread where he posts a link, because then I'm derailing.


I mean, time and time and time again discussion is encouraged and preached around here, while simple one note retorts of images, memes, etc. are discouraged. Now, Brenner's links are never spam and they're not stupid memes. They're always seemingly on topic, and it's not like he's spamming threads or being annoying.

I just find it interesting that in his time here he's said almost nothing, only links.

So he's a notch above lurker. I wasn't being squirrelly when I suggested he maybe wants to hear what more verbose posters have to say about the linked content.

I know my post count is fucked, so you'll have to trust me when I say when I check these boards every day, I check them to read what other people have written, not to see what I can add to a conversation. What I like most about this place is the collection of voices and what they bring to the discussion. I noticed a while back I got annoyed when posters I enjoy change their avatar or name, because that's often how I skim conversations.

And the fact is those voices are often intimidating. I spent a lot of my early time dropping off links because I wanted to read people's thoughts on them but was shy about sharing my own. I doubt this guy is doing anything much different than that.

I wish you'd only post links. Cunt.

Yeah, he often drops some cool little tidbits that aren't big enough to be considered front page news. He's good enough people imho.

I agree. It's why I kind of wish he'd pipe up more. I don't have a problem with him at all, can't stress that enough. Just curious and didn't want to derail a thread that he'd posted in.
