A Great Thread By Erik Ended With A Great Mystery

Sort:
HessianWarrior

Erik started a great Q&A the other day and lots of questions were asked and answered. Erik did a great job and when it was time to go for him to go he locked the thread.

That's not a a big deal, nor the fact that another post came in seconds after his good-bye. What is really strange that 55 minutes after the lock LegoPirateSenior posted there with a taunt to Erik about posting after the lock.

LegoPirate just added 11 more cool faces to the last post he made after it was locked.

LegoPirateSenior is also from the Bay area of San Francisco like Eric is. An unbelieveable coincidence.

I don't know but I got this from Nobodyreally's message board.

I already told Erik how, so I don't think it will be doable for much longer.

No sh#t.

even if erik is lps, does it matter?

only to those that seem that that they must be in the know. those that view their importance at a degree that is one of self absorbsion.

really, no need to give a shit beyond the fact that some had valid questions, and they were able to speak to the boss.

erik answered many questions.

HessianWarrior

Yeah, I think he Erik did a great job.

Wonder why the thread was closed?

Erik locked it himself after he said good bye, he had to get work. NobodyReally must have posted seconds before the lock but it didn't show up until after the lock. I could tell that by the time differences of the two. LegoPirates post came 55 minutes after the lock.

So LegoPirates is a mole?

  "Wonder why the thread was closed"?    It wasn't meant to be a normal thread. He just wanted to hit a lot of V3 questions. It would be nice if he did it once a month, not just V3, anything in general sitewise. A couple of stupid questions were like; "What's your religion"?  "How much do you make"? blah blah. I thought that was a little tacky.Embarassed

I can imagine this scenario: I get hit by a car. The shock and injuries paralyze me. You are the only person I see at the scene. So I ask you a question because I'm so utterly impaired that I don't know what I'm doing. 

But other than that scenario, RJC, I can't imagine ever asking you a question.

     In regard's to the mystery, the only thing I can figure is if Lego Pirate was in the process of posting, it keeps the post box open. So maybe he walked away and had dinner for 30 minutes.
