Thread Hijacking:

The act of taking over a thread on a message board by taking a part of the original posted topic, twisting it around and "hijacking" the thread itself. What happens is that the original content contained in the post becomes moot and whatever the "thread hijacker" has manipulated the content to be becomes the new content thereby "hijacking" the original intent of post. People now respond to the "thread hijacker's" input and the that becomes the focus of the thread.

Adj. 1. meddling:

- intrusive in a meddling or offensive manner; "an interfering old woman"; "bustling about self-importantly making an officious nuisance of himself"; "busy about other people's business"


So basically if the discussion of the forum topic posted bends a little then your going to freak out and call it Hijacking ??

Please... Forums are Discussions.. Evolving Discussions... Go back in time in EVERY SINGLE POST IN THE HISTORY OF THE EQEMULATOR FORUMS...

And Find me ONE example where this has not happened....

Hijacking sir would be like ... Me posting without any observation for the current discussion.... something to the effect of :

TRY BLUE !!! IT'S THE NEW RED !!!


Something totally off topic and nothing related to anything.. Thats Hijacking so get your facts straight please

King


PS: That movie Rocks !
