    Seeing how I cannot reply to skanger's post in admin/support i had to post a new thread here to express my views on Sangre's banning. I have nothing to say on the overall job the admins are doing as expressed by skanger but i do feel strongly regarding sangre's banning. I know his posts might not always go down well with some people, but for the vast majority of boards users his (almost always lighthearted) witty replies and gentle jibes brighten up the dreariest of threads. While i cannot speak for other users, I know that i personally, will get less pleasure from reading boards.ie now than i did before.

    Why did he/she get banned in the first place?


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 10,501 Mod ✭✭✭✭ecksor


    He was banned from After Hours permanently a while ago. He registered a second account just to get around that ban and I caught him, banned the second account and warned him not to do that again or I would ban him. He was very indignant about this, his reasoning being something along the lines that he has a duty to tell people how stupid they are, and this evening I caught him doing it again.

    (here's a clue, if you're going to sign up a second account, it's kinda obvious if your very first post on boards.ie is talking about how you generally react to posters you've had disagreements with).


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 10,247 Mod ✭✭✭✭flogen


    rolf.... hes a quick one... looks like my net worked a treat, eh ecksor.... oh wait, i can hardly talk about multiple accounts, although I wasnt doing it to evade a banning....:D

    if he was given the warnings that ecksor mentioned, then i guess he should be banned... is it permenent or temp?

    Sangre is one of the last few funny people on boards.

    since when do people get banned for multiple accounts? i know you threatened him before about posting on AH with another alias but actually banning him from the whole site over it is too much. :dunno:

    he wasnt banned for having multiple accounts, he was banned for using his multiple accounts to get passed a ban put on him, he was caught and warned with a total banning, and did it again... ecksor followed through on his promise...

    Following on from the last point (..ish) when is bubbles ban coming into effect?


    tbh.. lighten up.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,488 ✭✭✭SantaHoe


    Good point actually, sangre probably picked this kind of behavior up from Bubbles... it's all his fault.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 10,247 Mod ✭✭✭✭flogen


    well i would say lighten up too, there is alot more muppetry going on than what sangre is up to, just pointing out that he was warned... so no one can say it came from nowhere etc.

    ....is "too stupid to be allowed into the gene pool" a valid reason for banning these days? and who do i have to have sex with around here to make this happen?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,312 ✭✭✭mr_angry


    Sangre and Utility_ on the same thread???

    Its like a hotbed of righteous indignation! :)

    tbh, he made a few comments that annoyed me, but I can get over it considering the hilarity of the child pr0n thread, and the fact that he made a lot of people laugh. I dunno - I'm sure there's a balance between the potentially nazi-like, humourless Boards.ie, and one where people can get away with insulting other posters.

    Surely a bit of good old-fashined apologising would solve the whole thing, wouldn't it? :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,838 ✭✭✭DapperGent


    I think there should be one rule for the amusing posters and another rule for the Ronaldo7esque posters.

    If this was in operation Sangre wouldn't be banned and Ronaldo7 would be - just for example like.

    I think we can all agree that that would be a far better state of affairs. Except perhaps for Ronaldo7.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,798 ✭✭✭Funky


    FREE SANGRE!

    There's so many stupid people on boards and Sangre is the only person who can save us!

    I agree!! Ronaldo7's posts are just pure mupperty. Atleast Sangre's posts were full of wit and humour.

    What exactly were you doing when reading his posts? :eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 801 ✭✭✭dod


    Ah yeah. Free Sangre.

    He could be a bit of a fool, and on occasion he didn't know when to stop, but by and large he was harmless and a bit of fun.

    Let him back.




    I know I'm going to regret this when he does come back

    Well, from what i hear Ronaldo acted as the catalyst for sangre on AH.

    tbh, Bending the rules for one user is a bad way to go about the running of boards (Hey,im not an admin or mod just a user with an opinien) but I do think it was harsh to get Sangre banned as he was, sure he broke the rules and was an idiot for regestering another account to post on a forum he was banned from but i do think he was one of the few level headed people around boards who didn't succumb to the pleasuring of a sympathy gland or *Hugz* as his clique used to call it
    /me wipes away a tear.

    But i dont think a banning was all that necessary. is it not possible to ban people from boards itsself for a few days (by this i mena the users who have been boards for quite some time and who had a regular sain imput and not those who spam or have just discovered the place)

    Im sure if it was explained to him *NOT* to go a reregestering again to post on a forum and instead plead his case to Monty that he would do so (then again, he is a law student).


    My opinien (if its worth anything)

    Give him one more chance and let him work off his bad karma.
    (tbh, other users like Par and Vac got many more chances)

    *sigh*

    And down with that sort of thing... (by which of course I mean the banning of the Sangre character)

    I would also like to join the free Sangre / ban Ronaldo7 movement. Look at the posts by each of them. Sangre had some funny posts, and Ronaldo just annoys me (sorry man), cos he gets a bit insulting when he feels threatned - I think he really means what he says when he insults them, whereas Sangre is just having a laugh

    Exactly.


  • Posts: 2,874 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Yea ronaldo7's an absolute gimp, cant stand him and sangre really took him down a peg. He deserved all the crap he got. All of his posts are just drivel.

    And lets be fair, boards needs a controversial poster like sangre. It brightens up the day no end.

    BAN TEH RONALDO AND FREE TEH SanGre!!!111




    I re-reged when i was banned and im still here :)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,304 ✭✭✭✭koneko


    He was warned. He ignored that. He was funny sometimes yeah but you don't ignore warnings.

    Oh and ban ronaldo aswell.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,592 ✭✭✭✭Dont be at yourself


    You know, if we had a Karma system none of this would ever have happened.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,046 ✭✭✭Dustaz


    If boards wasnt as big as it was, people might realise that ronaldo is an utter halfwit with nothing to contribute apart from acting as flamebat for people with a little wit (such as sangre) which makes for a more enjoyable experience.

    Unfortunatly they both just meld into the background noise of bored support desk employees typing about their favorite sort of pet.

    The wrong user was banned.
