    Read a book. Painting. Hookers. Spring cleaning. Pregnancy. Writing. Home made porno's. Learn to play an instrument. Try to learn a new language. Try your hand at making a bomb. Sleep.

    Try

    http://www.bored.com/


    or failing that

    http://www.miniclip.com/


    i work nights sometimes and trust me those two websites keep me amused for hours on end, i'll dig up some more of my bookmarks for you later when i have some time but for now try them


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,819 ✭✭✭rymus


    i heartily endorse miniclip.com

    I cant count how many hours I've wasted on there. Another good one is www.shockwave.com but you'd want to have broadband

    This place is a bit boring. I can't understand why you can't have a bit of banter or wind someone up without cursing. It happens in real life, no one gets hurt and it
    adds spice to the whole thing. I'm not saying it should be no holds barred, keep the ban on foul language but ah forget it, everyone here just wants a happy go lucky discussion board where no-one offends anyone else. I'm sorry, but I find it incredibly boring when everyone acts the same.:dunno:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 565 ✭✭✭commuterised


    a jigsaw of millions of cute puppies to keep you occupied

    discovered jigsaws again recently and it's nice to do something to keep you amused that's not computer games.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,236 ✭✭✭AL][EN


    commuterised you should try http://www.jigzone.com/ so im not really big on jigsaws but if you like em try that site

    and B1G 3Y3s if you have a problem with the way boards in run then may i suggest you try posting in the feedback thread under the admin forms.

    you are GAY

    Oh and I see the place is inhabited by highbred scholars like Tommy.
    Good for you Tommy. I can obviously see your a wise, mature man of the world.
    Naming yourself after a computergame character and attempting to insult me
    by claiming I'm of a particular sexual nature. I'm stuck for words, such a witty
    taunt on your part. Keep up the good work you witless twit.

    Now Tommy and Big Ears, firstly I'm not a mod on this board. But you can take or leave this bit of advice. You both have been flaming each other. Give it up or both of you children will end you being butt f**ked by Monty. You may be lucky enuf to draw the attention of the fanj. He will just slap you. Secondly have a look at this guide to boards from amp. Read it, encompass it, live it. Basically Boards is a big place. Big 3Y3s why dont you start at "A" and Tommo you start at "Z". When you meet in the middle shake hands and move along. Otherwise STFU the pair of ye. Please :)

    think they were trying to be I R O N I C. maybe

    Notice I mentioned the "Board" as opposed to the "post" have a look around on AH before you appear S T U P I D.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21 B1G 3Y3s


    Can someone please explain to me what is regarded as 'flaming' and what as just a mild insult?
    Mr. Hobart Sir, could your comments about thingermajig appearing Stupid not be regarded as light flaming? If he retaliated, then is it a 'flame war'?
    I have seen on other topics that people have insulted eachother, yet those occasions where not 'flame wars'. I'm not trying to be a smart*rse, merely inquiring.

    Thank you.

    BE ONE JEE THREE WHY THREE ESS :confused:

    A mild insult might be "get yore facts roysh you FOOL".

    Where as flaming would be a continuous insult trade to the point that you piss off other posters and end up getting banned.

    Nail......hammer......head




    flaming is pretty much when you continually post attacks (slagging's) against other users, now we dont mind the odd slag every now and again everyone's entitled to there own opinion/views etc however continually acting the muppet is the fastest way of getting banned.

    just try and play nice yea

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,135 ✭✭✭KlodaX


    Tanks ... I like this thread ... it isn't boring :D

    I think I'm going to go with the home made porn idea though...

    Just kiddin ... gonna take up reading ... they have this place in college with loads of books... and I don't mean boring college books... I found interesting ones in it today ...

    I think its called the library...

    that and drugs of course ww)

    *btw .. I don't think flamming is the same as slagging yer mates off in real life ... I tried it but people don't know when you are joking .. so you just look like a tit*
