That was a close fight :D
Flooding is a form of behavior therapy and based on the principles of respondent conditioning. It is sometimes referred to as exposure therapy or Prolonged exposure therapy. As a psychotherapeutic technique, it is used to treat phobia and anxiety disorders including post traumatic stress disorder. It works by exposing the patient to their painful memories,[1] with the goal of reintegrating their repressed emotions with their current awareness. Flooding was invented by psychologist Thomas Stampfl in 1967.[2] It still is used in behavior therapy today.

Flooding is a psychotherapeutic method for overcoming phobias. This is a faster yet less efficient and more traumatic methods of riding fears such as of systematic desensitization. In order to demonstrate the irrationality of the fear a psychologist would put a person in a situation where they would face their phobia at its worst. Under controlled condition and using psychologically proved relaxation techniques the subject attempts to replace their fear with relaxation. The experience can often be traumatic for a person, but may be necessary if the phobia is causing them problems. The advantage to flooding is that it is quick and usually effective. There is however, spontaneous recovery of a fear that may occur. This can be made less likely with systematic desensitization; another form of a classical condition procedure for the elimination of phobias.[3]

[edit] How flooding works
'Flooding' is an effective form of treatment for phobias amongst other psychopathologies. It works on the principles of classical conditioning or respondent conditioning—a form of Pavlov's classical conditioning—where patients change their behaviors to avoid negative stimuli. According to Pavlov, we learn through associations, so if we have a phobia it is because we associate the feared object or stimulus with something negative.

Flooding uses a technique based on Pavlov’s classical conditioning that uses exposure. There are different forms of exposure such as imaginal exposure, virtual reality exposure, and in vivo exposure [4] . While systematic desensitization may use these other types of exposure flooding uses in vivo exposure, actual exposure to the feared stimulus. A patient is placed in a room with the stimulus that provoked the original trauma under the controlled conditions of the psychiatrists. The psychiatrist there tries to help the patient to use relaxation techniques in order to calm themselves. Relaxation techniques such as progressive muscle relaxation are common in these kinds of classical conditioning procedures. As the adrenaline and fear response has a time limit theoretically a person will eventually have to calm down and realize that there is nothing to be afraid of.[3]
Flooding can be done through the use of virtual reality and is fairly effective [5][6]

Psychiatrist Joseph Wolpe (1973) carried out an experiment which demonstrated flooding. He took a girl who was scared of cars, locked her in a car and drove her around for hours. Initially the girl was hysterical but she eventually calmed down when she realised that her situation was safe. From then on she associated a sense of ease with cars.

Flooding therapy is not for every individual, and the therapist will discuss with the patient the levels of anxiety they are prepared to endure during the session.[1]. It may also be true that exposure is not for every therapist and therapists seem to shy away from use of the technique [7]

[edit] Why flooding is necessary
Phobias by definition are irrational fears. Often times these phobias can get in the way of everyday life. For example a person with a phobia of cars would have a hard time crossing the street or even walking around town. For some reason this person has developed the belief that all cars are dangerous and need to be avoided. Often times a person
Often times a person who has developed a phobia of a particular thing or situation will go to extreme lengths to avoid that situation. As long as they avoid exposure to the thing that they fear, they have no way of knowing that it can't hurt them.

so for all these pages...all these posts...all those letters...we weren't flooding...we were having a mental therapy!!!

No I don't meant Christmas, this is about a faaaar more jollier merrier event ... namely Flooding!

Let's have a warm up with a 1000 post flood, by the time we get there the 2010 thread dash will begin and then we convert this to a 5000 post one (yes yet again) and bask in the glory of a new year for a few more weeks.

Basic guidelines:
1: No rules :)) (...kidding)

2: Don't just type FLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDD (and show off awful typing skills, you are better off without those fingers than taint the flooder name~)

3: Try to type something funny, random, make this into a chat thread, post your roul results etc etc.

4: Ofc no bad words

5: Just because it's a flood thread and in OGF doesn't guarantee mod protection. Be wary of the hammer-weilders :)
The idea is to go crazy within limits of their tolerance.

6: Ofc there is a pretty beeeg chance that this thread will be locked before even reaching adolescence :(

7: Nearly forgot - No all cap messages (gives me an awful headache, and the hammers fall more often)

Anyway
Flooders Unite!!

Dashing through the snow
On a one-horse open sleigh,
Over the fields we go,
Laughing all the way;
Bells on bob-tail ring,
Making spirits bright,
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh

You hear a scream of Spawns (931), you turn around and see that they are guarding 214 gold.
