In many forums, it is customary to accompany such incantations with insults, as these too are a valuable way of attacking whilst having nothing new to say. As this entropy reaches a maximum, the need for human involvement will decline below the level needed to sustain interest, and people will revert to more traditional exchanges such as fist fights and poison-pen letters.
