    Hi guys...

    Am I the first to notice the rude, annoying, offensive, peurile and, frankly, f**king juvenile behaviour of the user who goes by the moniker "Jip Head" on the For Sale board? He/She/IT doesn't seem to be alone either...

    something should be done

    I see he just incurred the wrath of Devore so I wouldn't worry too much.

    When Devore says "we know where you live" he's not joking.



  • Registered Users Posts: 12,309 ✭✭✭✭Bard


    Yip- the lads are on it ... emails have been flyin'... I'm sure they'll keep us posted.

    In the history of muppets, these guys are amateurs. We didnt break a sweat.
    DIT has been informed and the domain mass banned. Sorry regular DIT-guys, but thats likely to engender lynch-mob vigilantism. Which is precisely what we expect... smile.gif

    Regi and Cloud (and blade!) have a particular knack of persistently deleting anything naughty within seconds of it happening... the Last Ten POsts thing makes this a doddle.

    The patented 12-click de-muppetisation program we have is still in force too...

    Great. Juuuusst Great.

    Mr. Jip Head <or whatever name he's using as of this moment> Some of us actually access this site from dit for (and wait for it, this is the killer) PROPER DISCUSSION! - take a look at the humanties board if your not sure what i mean, thats right, it isnt just a vessel for your o-so-witty adolescent ramblings.

    Anyway, I know for a fact that there are precious few people in dit that are aware of and access boards.ie on a regular basis, and I probably know this person aswell.

    so use a proxy server - sheesh, some people rolleyes.gif

    Yes, they managed to get rid of PeeWee after all smile.gif



  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    Sorry regular DIT guys, we'll allow postings again from your site pretty soon. Its only temporary, we find these muppets have a limited attention span and will pretty soon bug Local Ireland or someone else...

    Dev.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 631 ✭✭✭Take it


    Id love to but there is like 5 or more DIT's and finding one person might be a bit harder then you think hehe.

    I've got a 2 hour IT on Monday from 4 to 6 (the only class i have on monday) and im not going in now because i cant access the boards haha.


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    You could ask Excelsior, they seem to know him, so maybe its vice versa...

    aside: the guy who's mobile phone number they put up seemed to have an inkling who might have been responsible. He didnt sound at all pleased smile.gif and he sounded quite the ruffian hehe...


    DeV.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,831 ✭✭✭Lucutus


    Take it, that is the lamest excuse I have ever heard for dodging a class!


    Kinda nice tho, to know we make your IT classes complete biggrin.gif

    they do know me.
    they used to hassle me back in secondary school a little bit.
    they are funny guys. ha ha.

    my surname is hargaden.
    which almost rhymes with cardigan.
    5 years of hilarity.

    anyway, i am unconnected to all of this de vore.
    i guarantee it.
    they will get tired of it. they dont ike to focus on the same thing for too long.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,313 ✭✭✭Paladin


    So basically they are as$holes?
    I had one of dem (guys that rekons its funny to be an ********).
    Nicked my stuff.
    Lost my temper. 'stuff.
    He never spoke a word to me again.
    Of course thats not always the answer. The thing is, simply ignoring them isnt any fun smile.gif
    They are stupid, and are there for the whole world to ridicule. You just have to point it out smile.gif

    This is beginning to sound like that little short story you posted on the literature board biggrin.gif

    You didn't kill him did you?

    Sorry excelsior, I wasnt suggesting for a moment that you supported their actions.
    The best way to get rid of them is to hand over details of their names and whereabouts (job/studentship) to me and I'll have fun with them.

    Muppets come and go but the Boards.ie admins have outlasted them all hehe.
