    Foul words are generally nothing to worry about, after all it's only the internet. If you think it's serious enough, PM the mod of the forum where you made contact with this person in the first place. You might be ignored though if you're just offended by language used. If the PM was threatening however, it will be taken seriously.

    Is it ok then to send a pm back to them and call them all the names under the sun and use swear words?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,628 ✭✭✭Asok


    No.
    Forward me on a copy of the message.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,065 ✭✭✭Maskhadov


    Forwarded it on.

    bazH is a [wiki]Hosted Moderator[/wiki]. A little different to any other type of moderator. Like any others though, he's just a normal user outside of the forum he moderates.

    My worthless advice is to ignore what anyone on the internet says if you don't agree with it. It doesn't matter if bazH doesn't like your joke, and you look like you're trying to pick a fight with him by PMing him like that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 71 ✭✭kmurphy


    if it bothers you so much call the police. would you ever grow up.
    and id love to know how old you are ?im guessing 12 or 13. cause if youre any older man u need to get a life.
    this is so dumb it should be locked.

    What version of E-Feelings™ are you running ?, I'm thinking it may be V1.35 !!!, upgrade to the latest version, it includes some scripting that stops you acting like a 12 year sissy.

    would sombody please lock this for feck sakes . lol were lowering our standards. and ehh you the guy that started this thread go to bed with no supper.............hahahaha


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,065 ✭✭✭Maskhadov


    No , dont lock this thread. Otherwise its licence to send abusive PM's to other people.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,148 ✭✭✭The General


    So are we all allowed to abuse other people on boards now :eek: nice one

    I remember a while back someone said something to me about a phone i was selling and i told him to "fu(k off" and got banned for one week, and now i see this thread. This is the reason most normal users dislike boards.ie and most of the mods


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,987 ✭✭✭✭zAbbo


    My problem is that someone pm's me about something said on a thread(which was crap) and now has his knickers in a twist because big bag baz called him ****face.

    Would you run upto someone in the street who disagree's with your pathetic joke and start advising them the error of their ways?

    And then when you get told where to go, do you go bleeting to the nearest police station because of it.

    Anyway, if the rules state something about abusive text in a pm, then meh im in the wrong, this has got to the depths of patheticness that I think the OP is a total moron.

    Would you look at his original post in the humour forum again....

    I agree with you what he posted is uther ****€ but it seems like mods make up rules as they go along.

    Jesus do you ever stop moaning? How about I ban you from my forums so you have less to whine about? I'll call it "The General" rule.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,989 ✭✭✭✭Giblet


    This is the reason most normal users dislike boards.ie and most of the mods

    And all of these "normal users" who dislike boards.ie so much can't stop posting to tell us that much. Oh wait, it's only a handful of select "internet saviours" like yourself.

    I was under the impression that abuse_PM's were a definate no_no.

    Given that one person's interpretation of 'abuse' may and will differ from anothers, I take it each report is taken on an individual basis rather than one clear cut rule?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,628 ✭✭✭Asok


    Yes the general rule is that abusive pm's are a no no. However (The General get your whinging pants on!) in this case the op had absolutely no valid reason to pm baz.

    So in summary you are all ****faces
