Fast Eddie keeps PMing me

To tell me that he thumped posts that had already been thumped.

It's weird.

    Oh, I'll bet I know what's going on.  Are some of the PMs identical?  Like, the exact same wording as one another, down to the letter?
  • Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human
    He's never done that for me.

    Then again, I'm not sure if he's ever thumped my posts personally.   I think it's been Bobby or Maddy for me usually.
  • Because you never know what you might see.
    No, it's unlikely that this has happened before.  There's a new thump tool that sends a PM every time it's used.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Ooh, that's a good idea.
  • No, I mean the posts are thumped, and then he re-thumps them and I get a PM.

    ^^ It's one that's been floating around for a while, actually.  Eddie finally announced that it was definitely happening when Deboss suggested something similar in the Google Bans IJBM.

    Though sadly I couldn't persuade them to use the phrase "brick of awareness".

    ^ Yeah, probably a mod thumped your posts, and he's rethumping them with the autothumper.
  • If that don't work, use more gun.
    Autothumper?

    Thumps a post at the click of a button, no need to actually edit the post.  Also sends an automated PM.
  • The Sonic Series Wiki Curator of TvTropes
    Ah, so that explains that thump message I got yesterday from one of the mods.
  • You know what you must do Khwar: Show us a screenshot of the autothump button!

    (What? You showed us every other button! And even Supersecret Mod Jabberings, albeit mostly blacked out.)

    Is an autothumper anything like a wunder boner?
  • Because you never know what you might see.
    A what?

    Let's see, will this display here?

    Might want to report that that's displaying to Fast Eddie. He apparently installed anti-hotlinking code yesterday, and it doesn't seem to have worked completely.
  • Because you never know what you might see.
    Oh, a wunder boner.  Exactly what it says on the tin, I guess.

    I didn't know that, INUH.  I'll report that back to him.
  • Lightning bolt, huh? Neat.

    ...Does this mean the "normal" thump tags are gonna be removed?
  • Because you never know what you might see.
    Maybe.  We're going to stop using them.
  • ☭Unstoppable Sex Goddess☭
    So I don't see fake thumped messages for 3 pages constantly.

    Please, please, please tell me you suggested "Brick of Awareness" like I asked?

    Blast, I didn't read this part:

    Though sadly I couldn't persuade them to use the phrase "brick of awareness".

    Would Clue Brick be too much?
  • No rainbow star
    ^ I prefer the term, "Clue by four"
  • That's a nice one.  We really should continue with one of the few good traditions I've seen, giving the widgets silly names.
  • Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human
    He installed anti-hotlinking code yesterday?

    ...well, poot, there goes over half my image reaction collection.
