By all means in every separate thread use a tripcode... it's so people will know what posts come from the same people.. but using a same tripcode between all threads even when there not even remotely related is really fucking annoying. Everyone else can do it just fine. Plenty of people have been here longer then you EK.

"Primarily anonymous" It means tripcodes are needed when someone needs to prove who they are.. An OP for example. That's it. By all means use a tripcode when making a thread.. or make one when posting in a thread. Make a new one. Using the same one is not what moot wanted them to be in that video.

"Hi there!

You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!

Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!"
-Someone more intelligent than you.

Thanks, EK. I did learn from the best.

saging this thread because no one cares anymore and I made my point.

You won't see anymore of me by the way, I never intended on using this trip long term. truth be told I've played at least 3 roles in this conversation. I do love to argue and it got EK to drop the tripcode so everyone's a winner. night night

People who use tripcodes simply are attention whores. There's no 2 ways about it.
