Just a question- why are there so many tripfags on this board, and why do you use pictures and caption yourselves with them?

Just seems like self-important elitism bullshit, yo.

Just wondering. No offence meant, really.

Pic kinda related.

Like, no.

I literally just started browsing this board, and immediately see tripfags everywhere. This in itself I'm not really bothered by, I could care less.

It's just the pictures with captions on that I find peculiar.

But hey, keep on going, if that's what you need to do to help yourself feel like you are of any importance to anything on this world then no one is stopping you. I was just curious, wasn't sure if it was just unwarranted arrogance or not. Now that you've replied, you've answered my question.

It's because there are like no mods here, and its the slowest board, so the tripfags shitpsot fucking everywhere, then act like they were gods gift to mankind. only on a board as slow as lit could they be so well known.
And for the record, all arrogance is inherently unwarranted.

>> No.1587212

I use a tripcode because this way people recognize me and say oh hey that's stag what's up stag? It's the same reason my parents gave me a name after my mom gave birth to me

>> No.1587213

>>1587156
1. Tripcodes facilitate communication. If everyone is anonymous then its hard to have a discussion, since you can never be sure whether the person you replied to has replied to your reply.
2. Adding a name is just facilitates that concept further, expanding it into other threads, since the name attached to the code facilitates conversations in different threads over time.

Please stop assuming its about arrogance. There are perfectly legitimate reasons for having tripcodes and names attached to them. If the person is a tripfag because they want attention, then you will know this by what they say.

Just a question,

do you actually discuss things, or just blankly ignore other's opinions, whilst shitting your own out everywhere?

Once again, just a question. I understand your reply will be soiled with arrogance but I honestly want to know. If you actually discuss shit then it wouldn't be as bad.

I have no fucking idea why there are so many tripfags on /lit/.

It's a worse epidemic than /tv/ before moot implemented captcha to 4chan.

the only thing worse than the tripfags on /lit/ are the number of Anons who keep falling for the same god damn shitty trolls over and over again.

>i'm both boring and envious

>> No.1587262

I usually don't participate in these kinds of metadiscussions about tripfags, etc. Because I think tripfags would be in a better position if they didn't adress and also because I plainly just don't like to adress it - I like to discuss literature/philosophy/whatever else comes up while I'm here that I'm interested in. But d&e's comic has it about right. Anons, please get over our presence, and ignore us when we're faggots (like you would for any other troll), and actually discuss literature instead of engaging in this devolution, lest /lit/ suffer the same fate as /r9k/

That is all. love u guise

Your full posting ability is nothing but a bunch of flowery words you don't know how to use; and random insults thrown at people without reason, which ends up driving the thread off topic.
