It may just be me, but I reckon trying to drag a discussion back to the original topic when it's been the victim of trolling and useless arguing/flame wars doesn't make you a dick, it makes you a pretty decent person.

However, if a thread has been derailed, leave it be. Sure, add your opinion, but don't try to stop derailment. Some of us are pathtic enough to enjoy derailing threads.

Hey! I'm usually on Topic!

Back on Topic: It doesn't make you a dick, and posting after a derailment is annoying because people might have forgotten what the threads about.

I'll be honest. You are usually on topic.

Just kidding. Yeah, a fair few of us derail threads, but I usually only do that myself after posting a proper opinion, or during. Then I enjoy thread derailment. However, I still like to see people post their own opinions and ideas too so for attempting to steer threads back to normal, you're a great Escapist in my eyes, OP

Sorry. I included you now.

Wait...
What was this thread even about?

Sooo...
Anyone here seen Wolverine?

Edit:
Alright fine, on topic, conversations evolve and change course. Trying to hold one in one place for too long is an excercise in futility.
How that makes you a dick, however, remains to be seen.

Of course, I myself am responsible for a number of epic derails, like that one thread where half the replies were just me and some guy talking about something that was totally off topic.

Meh, it's not too good, not too bad. I thought it was OK as an action film, not an X-Men film.

Edit: Crap! I'm doing it again..

You've made me happy now

 

[goatzilla8463]

Dick? Never. It makes you a good person.

I am the true epitomy of a dick, well at least I try to be.

 

[Pimppeter2]

I hate Mario.

I would challenge you to a dick-off, but you are two leagues and five weight categories beneath me

Oh yeah fosho. I would Dick you off any day........ that sounded so wrong.

 

[megapenguinx]

I tend to hijack threads if I seem the failing.... but if a thread gets derailed don't try to force it back on subject. There was a reason it was derailed you know. Does it make you a dick? Nope, not at all

 

[chronobreak]

Wow, if that makes you a dick, who am I then?

He is "a" dick. You are "the" dick. Is that better?

You know I'm kidding, I actually find your insight to be always well-warranted and priceless.

 

[Susan Arendt]

You sound less like a dick and more like a control freak, but without specific examples, it's tough to tell.

 

[Evilvikingking]

I have a dick, does that count for something?

I think I've found the dick!

 

[nikosuave]

So I often find that I've made comments on the boards here that express a simple earnest opinion, and when the discussion somehow evolves into trolling and pointless argument I often resolve it by ignoring the line of discussion and reverting back to the original topic of the thread. Apparently this makes me a dick. Anyone care to weigh in on this?

Sounds to me like people are confusing dick with upstanding member of the forum... you dick.

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

I hate Mario.

*Prepares cross to crucify*

What? His games are boring. And those Kart racers aren't fun at all.

Zelda is pretty great, though. And I've only played the handheld ones, plus a bit of Wind Waker.

I agree with this guy, Mario games are pretty damn boring.

Also, OP I don't think you acted like a dick. More like a good person.
