    Hi all,

    Does anybody know of any of the other many DIY forums (Irish ones) that are out their the mods keep going on about, thniking of possibly having a gander. Seems like WhiteWashMan wants us all to FÛCK off and go somewhere else might just do that.

    Cheers

    What are you gonna do? Set up your own DIY forum in your treehouse and invite all your little friends?

    Hi Eddiej ,

    There are indeed other diy forums , Irish based .

    Topics would include general diy , gardening, and specialist trades as well.

    Hi Bluehair,

    I have n't seen you here before, seems to be a lot of strangers in town lately.;)

    Must be a diy convention or something on.:D

    What area of diy are you interested in then.

    This is the post of the day, and I am glad to see there is still some humour on the site:D :D

    Although if my past experiences are any thing to go by, humour may be swiftly dealt with:p :p

    If that comment was aimed at me then you are way off the mark buddy.

    If it was aimed at someone else then you are paranoid

    Free the DIY Forum One. It's raining and me roof is leaking. I have a roll of torch on felt and i don't know what to do with it. It's all fun and games when the sun is shining. Winter is coming people.

    jaysus, youd think it was against the law for a mod to be interested in DIY.

    ive unblocked a few drains in my time.
    i even put up a shelf once...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 235 ✭✭eddiej


    WWM are all mods able to add to threads once they have been locked


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43,045 ✭✭✭✭Nevyn


    No they can't unless they are a mod of that forum or of that Catagroy or they are smods.


  • Moderators, Home & Garden Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 7,730 Mod ✭✭✭✭delly


    eddieJ, judging by the time that WWM posted, he would still have been writing his reply. As he is a CMOD it would have taken the post without him even knowing the thread is locked.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 235 ✭✭eddiej


    Thanks for that, a clear answer, maybe Delly things are moving forward

    ahhhh.
    i see.

    fair enough.

    and no eddiej, i wasnt trying to get a last word in etc etc etc.

    sure, suggesting something like that is akin to suggesting that all mods are power tripping internet nerds.
    knowwhatimeanlike?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭galwaydude18


    jesus wwm what is the need for that crap? very childish I must say having a dig at kadman like that. That is totaly unreleated to this thread! If I did that I would be told to get back on topic and cop on!

    I think you should get back on topic and cop on!


  • Moderators, Home & Garden Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 7,730 Mod ✭✭✭✭delly


    galwaydude18, I think this thread is a little lighter than the previous ones and most users have been having a bit of a laugh (i know, crazy isn't it). WWM has already said that that was not a direct quote from Kadman and if anything he's probably being a little sarcastic.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭galwaydude18


    wwm went off topic with his sly dig! I did say that it is totaly unreleated to this thread!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭galwaydude18


    delly all the same it was a dig at him! ber is getting involved all of a sudden? why? all mods appear to be getting their say but yet rooferpete is not allowed to! IT'S RIDICULUS TO SAY THE LEAST!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43,045 ✭✭✭✭Nevyn


    Delly ( or cat mods or Smods) don't spare me.

    galwaydude18 Fcuk off and die.

    Really anyone with half a brain, even a cretin with half a brian would see by now that you don't a bloodly clue as to how boards.ie works.

    Go read the newbie FAQ before I wish on you something really unfcuking pleasant like a glimmer of understanding.
    Wahahah wahaaah wahahahaha

    18 yeah I would believe that 18 months some one give the child his soother
    he can't suck his thumb and type at the same time, ah bless.

    Really your afterbirth would have had more cop on then you do.
    Really go do womthing usedful like having a **** at least that way you won't be bothering other people as long as you keep
    out of your sisters closet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 46,555 ✭✭✭✭muffler


    all mods appear to be getting their say but yet rooferpete is not allowed to!
    Are you that thick. None of the mods threatened legal action and you did not threaten legal action. That is why you and they are allowed post here.

    PM me if there is some part of that you dont understand

    right so delly you have been strict enought here! What if anything are you going to do about that personal attack above towards me? Totaly uncalled for in my opinion! So do something about it!!

    galwaydude18 I'm pretty sick of beiing nice to you and trying to explain how things work. If you have a problem with a post, then report it, don't expect my Jedi mind powers to know you are in distress. tbh I think your trolling at this stage and thats what brings people to make such posts.

    Thaedydal I have not banned anybody for abuse yet, but I will issue a warning that such behaviour cannot be allowed and if further instances occur I will have to take action.

    OK Ive been following this saga with interest and from a distance. But I feel compelled to draw dellys attention to the attacking post by Thayedydal, Its out of order and is only adding fuel to this 'us against them' attitude that seems to be spawning from this whole discussion.
    Roofer pete was an asset to boards.ie, people are emotional about his departure, I really dont think you guys are dealing with it very well.

    That's been coming to you all day.
    You have a beef with mods - fair enough - that's your perogative.
    But take it to Feedback coz it's got fcuk all to do with either Gardening or DIY.

    Makes me wonder why I bother trying to be nice to people and explain there wrongs, I've been given an image of been a tyrant, yet I haven't even banned anybody :confused:.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,099 ✭✭✭✭WhiteWashMan


    there are plenty of DIY sitres out there for people to post on.
    there is one here which people are free to post on.
    kadman, galwaydude18 and anyone else is free to post here. (well, when the ban is lifted, give it a few days galwaydude and PM me)

    if rooferpete and gordon sort out whatever their differences are, then he too is free and welcome to post here.
