People who DBP?
What is DBP?
Drive By Posting..
Putting up some half assed arguement on a post, with just enough to say something sucks, but no back up, no reasoning, and then don't come back to explain, defend, or otherwise state a complete meaning.
DBP sucks!

I don't understand -- why does it suck? All you've done is state that you don't like posts of a particular type, with nothing to back it up. At least these shorter posts/threads take up less bandwidth and require less time to read. You really need to back this up a little better. :p :D

Perhaps I'll continue my one man cruisade and label them as I find them.. "DBP" from now on... :D
I guess it just irks me that people will say something and then run off and hide.. because perhaps they know they can't back it up, or don't have the grapes.
Perhaps I'm just feeling awnry lately!

In truth I agree with you. I was just making a poor attempt at humour. :eek:

Could you do a bit of research and post several articles that will back up this DBP theory. I do not beleive it exsists. Pictures will help in high resolution also.
I cannot beleive you did not post references to web pages either as we all know the information on all websites is the gospel.;)

What amazes me is the amount of attention these DBP post attract. The replies seem to go on endlessly. Someone attacks someone elses point of view and inevitably the thread ends up with some refference to something about Nazis.

This thread sucks. :p
More than a hoover!

I don't mind them Driving By while making a Post, but what pesters me is they don't acknowledge returning to the scene of their mischief by Posting again as they Drive By on their way back to anonymity.
Come to think of it, most of our members wrap themselves in their security blanket of anonymity by not filling out their Profile page. That, to me, is far more disturbing than DBP's.
I was raised on tv (and IRC). I don't read posts that are longer than a sentence or two. Proving a point to me means a link to a well designed page with lots of pictures.:)
I have however read this thread in other forums and it's true that the first person to call the other a Nazi has lost the argument. It's just the law.

I'ts true that a pictures worth a 1,000 words !
"it's true that the first person to call the other a Nazi has lost the argument. It's just the law."
NOpe. The book "The Road to Serfdom" by Hayek refers to Nazis many times and makes many good arguments.
