    Oh and it's pistols at dawn for me and you missy :cool: Bring your jacket, it's gonna be cold out.

    bring it, popeye always irritated me, so i have alot of pent up aggression to unleash :pac:

    What I hate is some poster picking a newspaper article about something bad happening somewhere in the world (usually to children) for the sole purpose of gathering people together to say how terrible it is. Eg: "5 year old boy in Alabama raped by wolves."
    What discussion is supposed to take place around these articles? Amongst 6 billion people bad sh1t happens every day. If there was no internet you'd never have heard of 99% of these and the truth is you actually don't give a fck any more than the 'your ma'/terrible pun brigade.
    When the next similiar article appears in the Daily Mail you'll take your self-righteous indignation onto that thread and Baby P/Maddie/whoever will be forgotten.

    Hard to tell if boards has changed all that much of late.
    I hate all the "in" jokes that clog up a lot of the threads on boards (well mainly AH). I think flirting should be kept to PM as it ruins many good threads. I just hit ignore button on the usual suspects looking for thanks. Some of the younger posters are actually quite good so I don't necessarily agree it's always "children" ruining boards.

    Meh, I've been here nearly 10 years. Can't say AH has changed that much at all.

    Have to agree.

    AH has always had it's share of attention seeking creeps, annoying newbies and hilarious ones (criticized out of jealously), sound posters, whingers, smartarses (or at least, people who think they are, haters, begrudgers, misogynists, thanks whores, thanks sluts, feminists, protesters and legends.

    What's really quite funny is that the people that usually complain about discussion topic quality going downhill are the very fcuking ones who hardly ever start their own damn threads.

    It's the equivalent of living in a houseshare and never buying food, yet still having the cheek to ask why there's no parma fcuking ham in the fridge.

    Contribute or button it.

    BTW - I'm posting this to make a point, not to whore a whole pile of meaningless thanks.

    Yeah right!

    You had all this written up, but waited until just after mid-night so you could get thread of the day!

    :pac:

    I'm not around long enough here to comment on perceived changes. But if a post is funny or shares my opinion, then it deserves a thanks I think. But if people want to preselect or dictate what others want to post or start as a Thread, then what's the fcuking point. Since I joined last October, I've seen great threads, $hit threads, funny threads, serious threads, threads I wouldn't even read and threads I can't stop reading. Isn't that the point of Boards.ie - there should be a little something for everybody.

    Wow, our resident coprophiliac thinks the place is too low brow.

    A dark day for After Hours.


    Like clockwork the resident thankswhores appear to thank your post.

    You need more posts. Once you have enough you'll see a thumbs up button on posts, click that to say "thanks".
