Export thread

I know I've mentioned this in the past a few times, but my favorite feature on the board is the area at the bottom of each thread which highlights how random people found the thread using search engines. Since it is such a source of amusement for myself, I thought I'd share some of my favorites.

General:
Epic Win Thread 2 Epic Harder- f (yes, one letter)
Truth or Dare- Last Orgy of the Third Reich online

NSFW:
Beautiful Girls- Just15age pussy

Anyone have a few searches that cracked you up or just left you stunned?

Down in the Webcomic Appreciation Jamboree, I always liked:
prophet allen arrowood
Powered by vBulletin printable heart shapes

Hehe, very nice

The Mass Effect 2 thread is pretty much full of rule 34 searches, fanfic searches, or both. Interestingly, someone also got there via "rule34 scytherexx". Oh, and "f" shows up too.

The New Picture Thread has been found using the search term "Barbarubas". I have no idea what that means.

I still can't figure out why the Good Cosplay Thread: Part 2 used to have "halforums bondage" as how some people found the thread. What is wrong with you people?

For my art thread I found this one odd: "miniature warhammer figures in beijing". Makes me wonder how the beijing portion helped with the search.

People found the no-so-serious rant thread with "short stories cajungurl"

also a lot of searches are being found with "Powered by vBulletin" along with other words. I wonder if that's a bot doing that, or if people have discovered it's a way to find forum posts.


Oh my, the results for the funny pictures thread: "owes caligula a reach", "the amazing spider man 611 your mother is so old...." and "313merch halforums"

L4D2 thread: "where does nick say tits in l4d2"

Kurtz (Kurt? Kuntz? what's popular to call him now?) to go back to video game jokes: "liara tsoni fanfic"

A lot of the search results for one of the Doctor Who threads are for NC-17 fanfic.

:shocked: I'm wondering if that means what I think it means!

Random crap thread - first I assumed all the horses were spherical and identical

Well, it certainly does fit the "random" theme

One of my favourites:

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, Part 2:

Also let's not forget events past in the Webcomics Appreciation Jamboree, such as:

1) Our discussing Bobwhite, a new-ish, smaller webcomic, so much that people searching "bobwhite comic" kept ending up at Halforums.
2) The most recent Lookouts storyline over at Penny Arcade, in which our search results became filled with variations on "four went up the frosty crown but three came tumbling tumbling down" and we were on Google page 1 for Lookouts discussion.

Some of them actually used it to find our thread. One of the tags is: bobwhite webcomic halforum

Think I already mentioned that my ukulele thread was found searching for "Tgirl ukulele."

Did you feel the need to correct the record CG, or do you figure they probably didn't come back?

:laugh: Nah, they can learn it for themselves. I can't wait til we see some for this thread.

pickles, defenestration, loquaciousness, privy-clearing, ambiguously gay duo, speckled frogs, speckled logs, most delicious bugs, bells of st clemens, diarrhea, cure of, rubella, cure of.

That oughtta confuse the random-searching crowd! *grins*

I'm not sure defenestration is something I want to help find my thread

And what, pray tell, is wrong with defenestration? It's not like he NEEDED to use the stairs....

I think I'm the loquaciousness

Somehow i think every dictionary will come up before this page, Allen.

Man, Merriam and Webster have made themselves a very loquacious enemy on this day.

You'll have to get righteous on their asses.

Ok, I have to ask, what the hell is a "vocaroo orgasm"?

I was scared to ask.

So you saw it too, eh? I can't help but wonder if it's a new slang term the kids are using these days.

I'd google it but I'm at work and don't know what I'm dealing with. You crazy kids.

Well, creepily, we're at the top of the list for "Vocaroo Orgasm" as a search. Apparently, Vocaroo "is a shiny new service for sending voice messages across the interwebs". I think the combination is now self explanatory.

A new, funny one for the rant thread " cheerios squirt guns shrek"

jeepers

Great. We're #1 on Google for Vocaroo Orgasm. #3? 4chan.

SUCCESS

Awww, I wasn't trying to hurt you, Dave.

Focus on the positive: We're #1!!!

:cheer2: WE'RE #1! WE'RE #1! :cheer2:

Whoa, hey. Last Orgy of the Third Reich?

... black bodies made of silver in a spherical oven. (Thermodynamic horses)

... perfect conductors located 1 m above an infinite perfectly conducting plane. (Electric horses)

... completely immersed in a inviscid liquid flowing at a uniform 2 m/s in the x direction far from the horses. (Fluid flow horses)

... in an infinite potential well. (Quantum horses)

... made of copper with 1 free electron per atom. (Stat-mech horses)

We're worth more than Fetishboys.com !

I always knew it was true. Thank you google search for backing me up.

Well okay then.

XD

Congrats to Allen and Gusto for their webcomic thread being found using this one:

Which would be weirder if it weren't an alt text from a Nedroid comic:

It might be my lack of sleep, but that comic makes no sense to me.

Honestly I think the Cosplay Threads and the Webcomics Jamboree are doing wonderful things for our Google rankings.

I agree Gusto. Doesn't mean I can't be in awe with wonder and fear at how they were found

Yeah that's the dark side.

I think people who are coming into our Truth or Dare thread are looking for sexy fireworks that just aren't happening.

That's our forum's power, though. We deliver the fireworks when people least expect it. Steak.

Can't spell "Steak" without "Tea".

Can't spell tea with out t & a, amirite?

Damn, that was sad, even for me.

Null, I am fascinated by your ideas, and wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

Also, apparently this page can be found by Barbarubas, bobwhite comic, and halforums bondage........

what on EARTH were y'all doin' before I got here?

It's only 2 pages, see for yourself

The search terms for the Mortal Kombat reboot? thread:

mortal kombat reboot is going to suck

AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! *looks at the found this page for this thread* AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Wait, WTF???

---------- Post added at 11:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 AM ----------

Well, it isn't Google. I just tried Google search using those terms, 4 pages and ours isn't on it!

:shocked: → :wtf: → :hmmm: → :laugh:

The Drunker/Higher/Wasteder thread was found using the term
sonofacrap

This I found amusing

Wait, what happened to the "Visitors found this page..." section? I'm not seeing it anymore, what did I do?

Oh... Oh NO! NOOOOOOoooooooo!!!!!!


::has a sad::

Ah well. While it was my favorite feature, I hope that someday that conflict is fixed and they work together. While I'm sad to see it go, I understand why it went.

!! Oh laws of unintended consequences! I loved this feature, too!
