Here it is, not even finished with the first quarter, and we’re already experiencing our first uptick in the Tardratieff wave.
The Tardratieff wave is described as sinusoidal-like cycles in the modern gun forum environment. At the bottom of the cycle, a forum is populated by knowledgeable, experienced veterans and there is a healthy influx of newbies who read stickies and follow the rules. At the top of the cycle, retards flood in from sites like Glocktalk, Arfcom, indianagundouches.com, militaryphotos.net, along with their cousins the airsofters and video gamers, and they threaten to overwhelm the existing site culture with their douchebag questions, attitudes, and general want to have their retarded choices confirmed instead of actually learning something.
It appears we are once again on the uphill slope of the M4Carbine.net Tardratieff wave. Be aware, and plan accordingly.
As the gun-grabber hysteria ramps up in anticipation of the fall election, I’m guessing things will get a lot worse before they get better as the mad dash to buy up every “tactical” this and “black rifle” that hits high gear.
There and the Philippines. Easier to buy stuff that’s considered “regulated” here, too. You want a fucking UMP 45? Done. A real Swiss 55x series gun? Hell motherfucking yes!
Well, thankfully we have some good Mods here that nip most of it in the bud, before it gets out of hand… Mods…You have a thankless job, and you do it well,If it wasn’t for you guys, this site would turn into another Barfcom. Thank you for preventing that from happening.
I agree.
Trying to point these guys in the right direction is met with hostility.
I am also noticing a lot of new members validating the bad decisions of others.
I have nothing against helping someone but I’d like to see new members spend a little time in a New Members forum before they’re allowed to flood other forums with “lube” and “which is better” type threads.
isn’t there some type of post count requirement here in General Discussion?..
