    For trolling.

    Apparently trolling equals me saying that i find something funny even though the majority wouldn't.

    Can an admin check out his reasoning behind this please :) also theres was at least 4-5 people with the same opinion as me on it.

    If it cant be resolved ill go visit another forum.

    Later folks

    No, it's for being insensitive and offensive.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,408 ✭✭✭Huggles


    You were posting comments in a highly emotive thread and if you had any sense whatsoever about you, you'd have realised that you should have kept your mouth shut.

    Your initial comment was bad enough but commenting AGAIN after people expressed displeasure at what you said, indicates to me that you were indeed trolling.

    Terry was bang on and did the right thing.

    Theres a time and a place and that thread certainly wasn't the place.

    It is not the first time you were caught acting up in After Hours. Ban justified.

    that's bull****, we've gone through worse on the maggie thread, on the pope dying thread..

    on every thread about every god damn world incident, after hours goes crazy with people arguing.. occasionally people get banned for personal insults, or obvious trolling.. but that was neither.

    tak3n is clearly an idiot, but that's not a bannable offence.

    Tell that to the OP. The point is, he should have had enough sense to let the smart arse remarks go after the first one he was pulled up on. He didn't and got banned.

    Thanks i guess :D
    I wasn't insulting the posters, just stating my opinion, it was afterhours afterall :rolleyes: and terry did not give a warning to me before banning... he posted a link which i didn't see to click.

    I never said leave it but if you were looking for a sympathetic response perhaps afterhours wasn't the right place for the thread ;)

    The way, as Gooner pointed out, Tak3n kept on with his comments when he knew he was being obnoxious, is surely a form of trolling.
    And, sorry for repeating myself, but anyone who starts a thread asking guys whether they could bear to stay with their girlfriend if she had been raped, is clearly a troll.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,200 ✭✭✭kensutz


    You deserve the banning


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    he might have known you thought he was being obnoxious, but that's a very different thing. You and the gooner are not the be all end all of the morality of humour.

    LOL I didn't put the thread there.

    You posted a pretty ****ty comment in a thread where 99.9% of the posters were talking about how appalling it was.

    So you weren't trolling, merely attention seeking?

    What's wrong? Not enough cuddles as a baby?

    So your saying out of 100 people 99 of them are right automatically makes the other one wrong?

    You got your figures wrong a bit there... i wasn't the only one who found it funny.
    And in answer to your question.. yes i got enough hugs but it seems you never got enough education if you think it was 99.9% of people.

    Clearly his only reason for being on Boards is to troll.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,783 ✭✭✭Binomate


    Moderation in AH has suddenly got a lot stricter. What's all this insensitivity crap now? It's after hours....

    If I want to reply with 'lol' to a thread about someone who dies doing something stupid or not, then whats the big deal? It's a change from the rest of the RIP condolence posts which only exist to increase the posters post count. Who really gives a shit?

    I'm embarrassed for you now.

    Instead of trying to look clever by ripping my post apart, why don't just admit your were out of order as the others users are pointing out.

    BTW, not all users that found the incident funny have your posting history.

    How is your girlfriend, did you dump her in the end? :D

    I wouldn't be so sure. The people who find that sort of thing amusing do so in the abstract, without actually thinking, "holy fcuk, this actually happened". It's sort of a reaction to disturbing events that people without the faculty to run appropriate thought processes often give.

    Unless on the other hand, they're laughing at how much of an idiot the person who thought it was youtube material is. That I can laugh at.

    Of course, you weren't thinking (on those lines) at all.

    Whatever my reason for finding it funny is, thats irrelevant. I shouldn't be banned for expressing and defending my opinion ESPECIALLY in Afterhours.

    and what a delightful hypothetical it was
