Idiot. Goes back to the theory I mentioned in this or the last thread. If the Durp user name includes the word "wolf", it's an unmitigated idiot. He's the one I called as 'massive idiot'. I've been paying attention, since then, and there are a few 'wolves' who aren't totally stupid, but all have been a bit... questionable. The only one that is a hard fit to the theory is wolf333 or something like that. Didn't look 'typical-durper' stupid, but that wasn't a shining endorsement.

Maybe I should start a "wolf" sock, and see what happens.

While also displaying a shocking amount of arrogance. From a normal toddler's point of view, those guys should look like the Three Geniuses. They dress themselves, they speak in full sentences, they drive cars, frequently have jobs ... Christ, they went into space!

Also in the thread, a new way to measure rotational speed,

And ~I~ refuse to accept that the clock hands have an average speed other than zero, because after twelve hours they're still in the same place!!

Someone · #**610** 14th July 2016, 02:28 PM

The mods still won't just come out and say, "We won't abuse our powers like that again."

Quote:

The answer is therefore undetermined unless the relative length of the hands is specified - the minute hand moves 12*(minute hand length/hour hand length) times faster than the hour hand. Also, there are 24-hour analog clocks where the correct answer is 24 rather than 12.

Can't tell if parody or durping.

This is because there is no abuse of power. If we, as mods, do something, it is because if a mod does it, it is not an abuse of power by definition,

We are unpaid volunteers who work tirelessly behind the scenes, most of us for more than 12 hours a day, to keep the SDMB working for your enjoyment. If you had jobs that were as important as ours, maybe you'd understand how minor details like deleting my post 7 hours later was a mere oversight (not that it was wrong).

Slacker is one of the people who makes me hate the Dope. It's bad enough that he posts unmitigated horseshit like that—he's hardly the only derper who does—but he also boasts about his sky-high IQ scores, and whines how unfair it is that he isn't taken seriously simply because he hasn't accomplished anything. I'm about the most nonviolent person around, but I read his posts and want to punch him. Gah.

Dude. I realize we can't all be tireless devotees who spend all our waking hours online checking IP addresses and shit, but we're probably capable of figuring this sort of thing out for ourselves. Also, how would you know?
