THE PLUSPLUS CLAN SHOWING THE TRUE REASON BEHIND CLANS, ONE POST AT A TIME
::Purpose::
The purpose of this clan is somewhat twofold. The first and primary reason for this clan is to aid in the act of "Plusplus." For example, If variable X is 1, then X++ would yield two. Thus, it is in our best interests to post and add to ourselves to make us a better person. Note that this addition is not advocating spamming and increasing post count.
The second reason for this clan is to make us better people in general. Everyone knows that statistics can sway and influence. Whenever one of the Plusplus clan is encountered in a forum argument, he or she only need to reference a single number. Assuming the number is greater than the target in question, we will have superiority.
::Joining::
One must simply initiate the Plusplus ritual by posting in this thread. Your name will be added to members promptly.
We do not believe in ranks or anything of the like. We are all equals. We can all take part in Plusplus together.
The ordering of the members is by join order only. For the purposes of clan councils and leaders, the ordering of the members can be referred to for positions of leadership. Regardless, membership is equal opportunity. We do not discriminate against nationality, race, or sex (provided the truth is told).
::Notes::
I have been told that this clan may become a haven for spam. To avoid this, the forum rules must still be obeyed. For simplicity, follow these rules:
No Flaming - In this clan, we will work by a "safeword" policy. If you are taking offense to someone else's words, say the phrase "<membername>, STOP MAKING ME CRY!" Any offensive actions taken by the member afterwards will count as flames. After all, flaming is not flaming if one side accepts it.
No Spamming - Do not 'bump' the thread. Make sure your posts are at least 3 lines. Any other posts are allowed. We are not here to judge the intelligence of your posts. We are all equals here. No Double Posting - Do not post twice in sequence. Edit your post. After a person has posted after you, you need not edit your post.
::Orders of Business::
- The first goal is to design a banner. Feel free to input whatever ideas you have for a banner.
- Contemplate the meaning of ++.
This seems to be a very accepting place on the intraweb, and one I would like to join.
I have several questions though on this ++ theorem. Is ++ only spiritual? Or at it's core, can it be physical as well. I have received emails that claim to ++ certain things, and so I am curious if the ++ clan would have the same effect.
No double posting? But that is an impediment to the way I spiritually perceive ++: adding one post to the thread's essence, making it, and with it it's members greater. ++ is, after all, an operator. And if we do not leave it space to 'operate', it will become a worthless operator, like phi. But oh well, I'm already thankful for the platform this forum has given us to ++
About the banner, I'm thinking something like a fractal might be appropriate.
A fractal may be appropriate, yes. I was personally thinking of a collage of sorts as a cooperative effort of all people.
Too bad we have to adhere to the rules of the forum. Eventually, with enough popular sway, we might be able to bypass that rule.

++ is what you make it. It is a way of self improvement by numbers.
Actually ++ is a Zen concept. It's derived from the "grass" radical at the top of many notable Japanese kanji characters. These may include, but are not limited to, "cat", "flower", "bamboo", and "blockhead".
of course, in this subvariety of Zen Buddhism, all posters in the Great Clan of ++ fall into one of those four categories.
CAT
You post very little. You lurk a lot. But when you do post, it's magnificent. Brilliant. Predatory and agile as a dancing scimitar. You also wash your bum with your tongue, so that's why you are posting/lurking on the internet, instead of going out and having a life.
FLOWER
You are a social butterfly. You are effeminate, profuse, and mercurial. Like your Zen sign, you thrive on horse manure.
BAMBOO
You post regularly and blandly. You are the workhorse, the essence of ++ Zen. It is your posts which make up the vast majority of the substance of the threads of this Clan. In other words, spam warning.
BLOCKHEAD
Hay guyz does a blockhead can /join this clan to? Im an internitanal model but dont speek verly good Englisk heeeeellllp meeeeeeee

++ has a dual nature. In its purest spiritual form, it is known as zenzen wakaranai and is symbolic of the state of not being able to truly understand anything. Sorta like a Kyoto-era Heisenberg's Uncertainty principle.
It is manifested physically by the tendency of people to continue posting on the internet long after their purpose is fulfilled elsewhere, or after their point is made or missed, as it were. It is in the nature of people to do things for no apparent reason, neither for good nor harm. That in the natural order of things, posts only increase, postcounts may stagnate or increase, but never decline. (Don't ask me about what those unnatural people do by deleting posts, that is clearly unnatural and beyond the scope of this KOAN, young padawan.)
Great holiday to all! I ++'d several things, being my wallet. Unfortunately, some did not know the nature of my RL+ing, so I'm having to re-do Christmas today.
I think, if these Zen teachings are correct, we have lots of work to do, and I suggest perhaps our first clan mission: Where do these "deleted posts" go, and how does this happen? All of our evidence points to this being immoral, unnatural, and impossible, yet evidently it is happening in front of our very eyes. We must fix this problem.

There is an alternate universe, where threads are opened and posts magically appear. So, instead of people grousing "What happened to my post!?" they ***** and whine about "WTF where did all these posts come from?"
Especially since the deleted posts of one universe wind up being the spontaneously generated posts of another. Complete with all the offensive, embarrasing, drunk-mouthed content they wished to hide forever from public view. 'I never said that, it just spawned that way" is a frequent rebuttal in the Alternate Universe of Posts.
Clan is closed due to not reaching 6 members in 14 days

What is the sound of one post posting? Reality is illusion. Slavery is freedom.
War is peace.
Invisitext is tech.
