For those of you who don't know the story behind this, a while ago Admiral President made a timeline called "Misfire", where Oswald's gun jams and JFK Lives. The first reply was a comment by FDB saying "go on", and there were quite a few people (including me) who empty quoted this. Eventually, one user said our empty quoting had gotten out of hand, but another user decided to not only again empty quote FDB's go on, but to empty quote the user who had said the empty quoting had got out of hand,
and to merge these two empty quotes. From then on the entire thread was just people merging empty quotes to see just how big we could get this empty quote. The final empty quote, dear reader, before a mod deleted the thread, looked like this:
Can I assume that this TL is dead?
Why would it be dead?
Because all the useless messages and quote chains.
But that's the best part!
Can we stop with these quoting from a quote that quotes from a quote, etcera etcera?
Can we stop with these quoting from a quote that quotes from a quote, etcera etcera?
Get out.
This thread was a mistake.
The only mistake here is you outing yourself as a blasphemer!
When can we expect the first update?
I think this may have gotten a little bit out of hand.
Agreed. Are we going to actually wait for an update, or make this gargantuan quote chain even longer?
Make it longer. Why the hell not!
What the hell happened to my timeline
You didn't update quick enough, that's what happened. If you had just posted an update earlier First Degree Burns wouldn't have posted "Go on", and the quote chain wouldn't have started. So basically, it's all your fault.
