A Moment of Mourning for Mr Shabby

Fysh

Goddamnit, adam got himself banned. Again.

All those who feel Boards and particularly the Cork forum will be a lesser place to frequent without his particular tone of obnoxious humour, post your condolences here.

It should be noted that adam was a fine poster in all his 2 incarnations, bringing a piquant brand of obnoxious humour to the mix. (Although according to recent experimental data acquired While In The Pub, adam's Obnoxiousness Field has been weakened and is going the way of a red dwarf sun. Fans of obnoxiousness need not panic, as universal balance has apparently been restored by my Obnoxiousness Field going supernova.)

He will be missed. Until he either registers under a new account, or our aim improves significantly.

(Yeah, ok, I'm bored...)

Femelade

Is he permanently banned then...

what happened him?

JaneHudson

Big wally. Ken Shabby was a good name too.

JohnK

what did he do this time? :rolleyes:


the muppet!!!!


edit: scratch that, I just read the thread :rolleyes:

rymus

Hah.. the tool.. Good riddance I say!

nesf

He'll be back, probably.

gimmick

Bye Bye

Nukem

Never met the guy but speaks his mind and i like that. Think he should just learn to bite the tongue just a small bit when it comes to ecksor he'd have had no worries. He'll be back!

mike65

Fysh one obnoxious is fine, five is guilding the lilly somewhat!

Adam will be back but with a different PC/IP addy if he has any sense.

That wouldn't make any difference - his posting style is very distinctive.

The sooner he's back the better. Too much fanboy admin worship is bad for the soul.

He does tend to stand out a bit doesn't he?

mike65

I guess therapy might help.

The "adam" at the end of every post tends to give him away. This place with all it's rules ceased to be any fun a long time ago.

Fysh

He was never the most subtle poster, really. Hopefully he'll pull his next Jesus impersonation soon

Can someone point me to the thread he got banned over?

Thanks for that JohnK. Looks like he should have kept his head down.

Fysh

Well, yeah, probably. But then he wouldn't be the adam we know and love, would he?

I love the way Ken Shabby 2 emerged when he was in his death throes

Ken Shabby 3

I didn't need to keep my head down, the rest of the admins knew who I was, in fact DeVore followed through on a request to remove my IM handles from my old account a few months ago.

Jerry banned me because he thought I was being critical of his precious baby - I wasn't, I was simply feeding back - and because of the tame/lame comment in post #5, period. I don't blame him though, he obviously has a major self-esteem problem, which probably isn't entirely his fault.

Like I said the last time this happened, when I'm banned for a legitimate reason, I'll go quietly. In the meantime, trying to ban someone with a dynamic IP is about as clever as trying to nail jelly to the ceiling.

See you around in my new identity. When they find that...

./brdsreg -u USERNAME -e EMAIL [-p PASSWORD]

(Enable captchas Jerry. You're supposed to be a security guy, secure.)

adam

Femelade

er...welcome back then.

In other words, he came back in while I was ill and nobody thought to reban him.

If any curious Mods want a link to the original thread on the Mod forum that dealt with this issue than let me know.

homah_7ft

Jeepers it's all going on!

lostinsuperfunk

Reading the thread, I don't think he said anything particularly ban-worthy. Until his Second Coming as Ken Shabby 2, that is. And that Ken Shabby 3 is a cheeky chap.
Maybe a whole legion of consecutively-numbered Shabby replicants is spawning...

JohnK

I for one eagerly await Ken Shabby 4

Fysh

I heard there's an american TV company thinking about making a syndicated show around adam's message board antics called (wait for it) the Six Million User-account Man....

/me gets coat

damien

This so will not help the comments about him and bubbles being indistinguishable.

Illkillya

Ecksor is a loser

ecksor

What have I lost exactly?

Illkillya

your sheep?

Tree

i blame myself really, adam had to proove my accusations of his being nice to be false... le poop


i suppose ill just have to get him a bday drink to make up

Right, so some pointless eye poking at ecksor then, that'll show me.

I'm sure I used to have critics who could string a meaninful sentence together.

Illkillya

till you banned them all because they made you cry? <-- (token smiley)

ecksor

I don't think you're interested in anything other than a lame slagging match, but my options there are all flawed.

1. I could ignore you, and you'll have the last word and your brain will probably compute "haha, he had no come back to that one" (If you think of dahamsta, whose idea of a personal jab was to talk about the size of my penis, as an eloquent critic then that says more about you than anything).

2. I could indulge a tit-for-tat bout of stupid comments, which would be terribly boring for everyone here and would actually make me pettier than you.

3. I could ban you for personal abuse, but then you've "proved" what a nazi I am who can't take "criticism" (which you probably believe you're engaging in here).

Option 1 it is. plyd.

mike65

You mentioned Nazis first!

Seriously Jerry, you should see a doctor about that like. :eek:

I'm starting a pool. See in minutes how long before the reincarnations are banned.

zenith

We do like our flawed rebels here in Cork, Ecksor.

Fysh

Flawed rebels? Sarcastic bastids, more like. But yes, adam has quite the fan club (and groupie club apparently, but let's not go there just yet...)

Tree

Hey, you're clearly the head groupie, followin in his footsteps and such

Fysh

Now now, I deny all knowledge of any groupie like activity between me and adam. I recall no such events. (Whether this is down to beer intake or the lack of such events is, however, another discussion entirely.)

Down with this sort of thing!
Up with Adam- wait, no, that just sounds disgusting...

Tree

I''ll blame the beer being a groupie in a sober state can be mildy embarassing

Fysh

I'm saying nothing. (Clearly because I don't want to lend credence to such daft allegations by even acknowledging them. Not for any other reason.)

Anyway....ummm....err....

z6? $9233J xD |J w6C@P

Yeah, I think that says enough...

mike65

Quite!
