To back up the above post.
Humour.
Most important.
Just as vital is for all posters here to have a sense of same.
So lets not take things too personally, or retort with too much acid here.
We have a happy family, mostly, here and rarely is anything mentioned with cruelty at heart.
Please keep things cordial at all times.
If an argument is sought, there are better places than here to do it.
Like the ruddy Games Forum!
Pack of wasters!

You know you're in launch window when the two biggest games are a Beta and a game most people played 6 months ago. Still not even tempted at all to get a PS4. Hopefully something pops up in the Christmas rush but it might be E3 before we see anything truly mind blowing.

Hmm,
Not sure if you're getting this whole moderator /poster relationship down.
And I certainly don't think I overstep the mark.
Certainly there's enough mods from other forums, as well as cat mods, to bring it up if I do.
Using bold type just makes it instantly known that it's Cidey the mod speaking instead of Cidey the waster.
I don't think you're getting the humor intended in that pic down!
You don't overstep the mark at all, I was purely poking fun at the bold font.

Anyone in particular that's directed at?
I can't remember any usernames in particular but there was people getting banned for the most silly things a good few years back,
mainly in the likes of the After Hours, sports forums and all those other waster forums! :P
Interestingly, down here in bandit country, theres a lot of extreme contempt for boards.ie mods on a cork forum called ThePeoplesRepublicOfCork:
http://www.peoplesrepublicofcork.com/forums/search.php?searchid=5879671
It's a virtually unmoderated forum where you can harass other posters and curse away to your hearts content.
The only thing that will get you banned on that forum is posting a users personal details, which has happened many a time!
And the only thread moderation they do is move a thread to a more relevant forum, no snips unless it contains personal details.
How there hasn't been a court case yet is beyond me! It literally is a virtual bandit country!
So when some of them try to act like that on boards, they behave like brat children when they get banned and have a good rant about it on there.
If you ever have time to spare or are interested in human pyschology, it's worth looking at The Langers Forum and watch all the crazies lay into each other!
I'm actually embarrassed to be from Cork with the things that go on there!

Ah I see, I thought it was a dig at the fine caliber of modding in the Games category :P In all fairness, any mod abusing their position generally won't last pissing time, as Cidey said, there's co-mods, cmods & admin there to listen to any complaints.
I'm just glad that enternow guy is gone...

I remember that image from when it appeared in the Argos catalogue for the first time. A kid at school that smelled of stale bread and pastrami that had gone off about 3 days ago got one for Christmas.
90 lads crowding round the school rich kid* in the playground to get a glimpse of this new wonder handheld from Nintendo.
Those were the days...
*said rich kid was also the first at middle school to get Nike Air Huarache's... that lasted about a week until he got them nicked by a big lad**, that ate nothing but cheese sandwiches and Tangy Toms, during a cycling proficiency lesson near the local swimming pool.
**The big lad had a younger brother who everyone said was well hard (no not like that). They transferred from another school (that had a rep), and along with their stale, sweaty selves, they brought with them the gift of 0800 'adult conversation telephone hotlines'. Every telephone box within a 5 mile radius of the school grounds was packed out for weeks as the news spread.
I've no idea what other contribution that lad went on to make in society, but that achievement still carries with it a tonne of merit some decades later.
I appear to have strayed somewhat... sorry. Amazing what a solitary image of a Gameboy can do...

MMust see if I can get my hands on it for my super game boy!
Any excuse to post some pics.
Forget your 1080p 60fps modern shenanigans, check out those Dot Matrix pixels! :pac:
Actually forgot there was a shmup level in it too. Super game.
Original hardware folks, sometimes, you just can't beat it! 0 -
