    Is it just me, or do the normal users annoy anyone else*, the majority of them seem to be stuck so far up their own arses it's unreal**. Ahhhhh, is it a pure average thing to be a normal user, and not a super special internet class uber-important power poster on a big fat shiny bulletin board? Is is something we should all thrive*** to be?




    *For a given value of 'anyone' meaning only other mods, cat mods, super mods and admins, because of course only their opinions count.
    **For a given value of 'unreal', meaning 'to be expected from the lowest caste'.
    ***For a given value of 'thrive', meaning 'I didn't realise it was supposed to be 'strive'.

    Who cares?I certainly don't.

    This is a poor thread at best.

    if thats the spec for a normal user, a mod must be beyond unreal

    Sorry, none of you are moderators.

    By the precedent set by this thread:

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2054991903

    it's now allowable to start whinging like a bitch about a section of boards.ie users and request that only certain other users join in. I am therefore citing my right (because the normal users are always whinging about their rights) to similar expression of my fragile little hard done by feelings.

    you lot so far.

    If you have a problem you really should express your feelings on feedback, which is for the normal users.

    Woo a response to the no moderators thread... Honestly I've never had any real problems with moderators, got me arse kicked a couple of times, but I probably deserved it. Its just boards, folks, lets keep a sense of perspective here.

    These threads belong in either feedback or the thunderdome. Meanwhile its friday night, go out and leer at beer goggle tinted humans.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,446 ✭✭✭✭amp


    God damn it this thread is already rife with these lower lifeforms they call users. Strive up your own thread! Stop fagging up this one!

    Of course, thanks to my high rank on boards.ie I get to post more than normal moderators in this thread. You all strife to be me but it will only ever cause you thrive.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,458 ✭✭✭✭gandalf


    I'm not racist but these ordinary users tend to have unconformist ideas that are not part of our heritage and tradition here on boards.ie. I have heard of some of the normal users of boards being displaced by these blow ins and I think its time we had some form of immigration control in place to stop boards being taken over by goobags !!

    Deport all goobags,go on,go on,go back to where you came from.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,446 ✭✭✭✭amp


    I so agree Gandy old chum, these people are exploiting our friendly nature and ruining my boards.ie experience. Remember the good old days when there weren't so many plebs. And how many of them have replaced good decent boards moderators because they don't ask for our decent wage.

    We need to select only the brightest and best newcomers to our fair land. Preferably white users, with boobs...

    Actually no women! Women have no place on the internet. Thankfully I don't think any have posted on this thread so far so I think we're ok.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,458 ✭✭✭✭gandalf


    Hmmm I'm not as fussy with boobs (girlie boobies that is) will do me.

    Of course they can't have any morals at all !!!!

    I remember the days on boards when you could leave a thread unlocked without the fear that some foreign gurrier would come along and slap a bebo link in it or when the users were polite to you and accepted your authority, but these days they complain about everything and expect access to be handed to them on a plate. I remember when you had to know morse code if you wanted to use the internet. Try signing your posts in hexidecimel and then see how easy things were.

    FFS if I wanted to post I had to build my PC out of Valves and then connect it directly up to the mains and get electrocuted every time I replied to a thread. They have it easy the great unwashed, no respect, no sense of history.........they stole aaar postcount!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,231 ✭✭✭✭Sparky


    I have come to see boards over the years change.
    2 from the years I browsed and 2 from the years I am registered.
    As far as I can see, a lot of people have come to think that they own the place.
    They think that they can say what they like and if no one else likes it, well then they can fook off.
    If we as higher powered people step in to keep the peace in certain instances, we then get told how to do our jobs by the normal user who is so far stuck up their anus they forgot what day it is to collect the dole.

    We have a fcuking job to do at the end of the day.
    For some low life asshole to who has only arrived 3 months ago to tell me the law of the land on how they shouldnt be told this is what you should do, no bad language, your breaking the charter, etc and then complain to an admin about how I shouldnt of banned them is fcuking unreal.

    We run the place behind the scenes, not normal people.

    Oh Sparky, you sound annoyed. Soon you will come to enjoy the squeals of users as you abuse them for your own perverse pleasures. It soon becomes yet another perk of the job. (

    Now, Sparky-s, if you're going to roll around in the mud with the peasants, we may have to denude you of your title. It's the difference between being worried about the peasants when they're revolting, and just realising they are revolting.

    He'd probably beat you with a stick, if you asked him nicely. You may have to polish his boots first. With your peasant user tongue. You can probably still sing rebel songs with your tongue out, can't you?

    By riffraff and troublemakers like yourself for nothing more than a new dirty stick, no doubt. Your lack of respect for your betters disgusts me. You ruffians don't seem to realise you sould be honoured we even deign to speak to you when we hand out punishment. If you haven't done anything to deserve it at that time, you will certainly do something that deserves it later.

    Bah. We need to find a solution to these commoners, I say. A solution that lasts, that has a note of finality about it. Perhaps we could deport them all to the same place and keep them concentrated there. We could call them camps, to let them think they're on permanent holiday. Although with the amount of work they do I must say it looks like they think that anyway...

    Indeed it is our duty to act. The days when you could trust them to die in their own filth are long behind us.

    So if the roles are now reversed, is this the point where the peasants tell the mods that if they don't like it, they can always just turn in their badges?
    and also, Are you going to provide any (other) examples or are you just making this all up

    We'd be doing them a favour, really. And besides, we need to do something about the excess population, those wastrels breed like rabbits. Perhaps we should begin hunting them for sport again like in the old days.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,658 ✭✭✭✭The Sweeper


    I'd like to cite the entire feedback forum as exhibit A.

    ooo! ooo! Maybe we should just close teh feedback forum, stifle the protests of the peasants, and cut their filthy tongues out?

    And by the way, are you trying to TAKH AHRRR JAHHHBS?


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


    Seeing that the vb code has the mods in a super superior grouping then the regular ( regular pff they wish if they were they would be less full of shit and so anally retentive ) posters.

    So surely it would be possible to deny them posting acess to certain sections,
    they could read but never comment, or better yet an ignore all button for them.

    This may have merit I propose we discuss this futher in the mod channel in irc.
