A five page thread and not one person said 'YORE MA' as an answer. Disgraceful.

I bet their polls don't have an Atari Jaguar option either......

That's pretty gruesome to read with all the adverts between posts.

Nice work big man!

AnonoBoy

Nice work.

Thumped is really the sort of place for people who can't hack it on boards.

I think we should all sign up and hit them with a barrage of 1 post hits identical to Dragans.

Let them know what they're dealing with.

brianthebard

Oooh, we could see who gets banned first. Although since they talk about Napoleon Dynamite in the Art and Culture section I think it would be easy-just talk about Picasso or Shakespeare and watch their brain's fry...

Dragan

*chuckles* Now they are all talking about me.....so this is what it feels like to be troll????

Dammit, i need a shower.

No. Just, no.

what was the aftermath of that boards.us invasion a while back?

FX Meister

Jeez, big deal, there is another irish forum out there. Don't be so small minded about it. If the users wanted to be on boards they would be. All the cool people go to tumped. FACT. All the nerds, geeks and losers go to Boards.ie. FACT.

Welcome, brother.

Are you calling me a nerd or a geek or a loser? Or all three perhaps? I'm going to kill you at the next Boards Beers / Thumped Trashed Night.

Such an appropriate username for that post!

Never even heard of Thumped, until now, that is.

Thumped is for pricks.

I've become indoctrined to the structure of BIE though and can't imagine ever using any other message board. What can I say, the convenience and scale of BIE is second to none!

Ro: maaan!

This usually happens the other way around.

Included in there is examples of them spamming here. I know we shouldn't spam them back, but It makes me not agree with it being a fine little site.

Look back at this thread for examples of boardsies spamming there.

The internet. Serious business.

Coming from a 33 yr old with over 10000 posts. Is it just me that thinks this site is full of people who have been banned from boards?? I see they are using the rep system-I've never used that, is it fun?

Our man in Havana

Don't even start about the rep system.

Ruu_Old

But yours is 1775 (or was/is)! Mine is 118.

Well you get plus five from me for the fantastic sigs and avatars.

Actually, that's a bit sad. Trolling PI is low.

Yes, it is.

And quoting PI topics / posts on another board, just to make fun of them, is equally sad.

There are so many other fora on boards.ie for them to take the pi$$ out of if they really feel the need.

Why pick on the people who are most vulnerable?

I know there's a word for people who do things like that ... slips my mind for the moment ... begins with "b", I think ... hmmm ... it will come back to me, no doubt.

You've got a bendy willy haven't you?

Why is Boards better than Thumped? Consider this:

I have been using Boards for about 6 years and up until now I have never EVER heard of Thumped. I think that answers the question sufficiently

No, I think that suggests you may need to broaden your horizons a little...

Say what yis like but that thumped place appears to have a working search feature :eek:

You can taste the resentment coming from that thread.

Thumped is hardly broadening your horizons. It's like Stormfront with nothing in particular to protest against.
