    Does anyone think anyone important / famous is on boards?

    Surely there is some sort of politician / soccer player / music artist / actor on here using a nick-name that no-one knows its actually them

    Bertie could be on here, a true after hours-er, saying that he hates the f*ckin Polish and the Romas every bit as much as us, and making yore ma jokes

    Does anyone know of anyone / think there is anyone here?

    Have always reckoned that if Eamon Dunphy ever registered he would have been banned from Soccer on his first day :p The admins would have had to add words like "creep" " poofball" and "nothing player" to the swear filter if he re registered persistently.

    A well known and much loved radio DJ / presenter perhaps? Who knows?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,120 ✭✭✭justshane


    Joe Duffy has to be here somewhere. Sure hr need more then hour a day to be giving out about the "working class" and what they've done or caused!:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36,634 ✭✭✭✭Ruu_Old


    Ohhhh the satisfaction of getting to siteban Bertie..or maybe I have already. :D This is one for Ireland *gives two fingers*! :mad: *click*


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,799 ✭✭✭Tha Gopher


    I know there is a personal abuse rule here....but cmon....its Gerry Ryan ffs, give some leeway.

    If Adrian Kennedy registers and I cant call him a twat Im closing my boards account.

    Id reckon a few well known journalists do keep an eye on boards mind.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,440 ✭✭✭✭Piste


    I'm sure I've seen Snata Clause nosying about here somewhere!

    I know one Dublin City Councilor who is a member on here and a very active member.I know its not much but its a start.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,472 ✭✭✭✭Ghost Train


    ...hates the f*ckin Polish and the Romas every bit as much as us...

    just 'cause youre slagging off bertie doesn't give you the right to presume that i hate something as much as you...

    also i'm offended by your lack of respect for the celebs on faircity


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,783 ✭✭✭Pj!


    I reckon the OP is famous.

    Probably that Hawkins fella, the brainy wheelchair guy? Actually is he still alive? If not sorry. But if he is, i'm full sure he is the OP.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,183 ✭✭✭Peared


    Yeah there are.

    Vanity and ego will push them towards outing themselves.

    But enjoying Boards will make them keep schtum.

    Interesting to see where this goes.

    A middle ground is junkyard who lets us know he is a somebody but not who. This device can also be used by nobodies who would like others to think they are a somebody.

    I am a somebody but will never spill ;)

    Should you not be on Grafton Street in a bikini instead of posting on here then no?

    A bikini? In this weather? Yeah right mate! :rolleyes:

    There's bound to be a few "celebrities" here and there on Boards, we'll never know for certain though.

    The media does use things said on here, or topics posted here though.

    Also, there used to be big threads about the Panel on a regular basis in the TV forum, if someone were bitched about they'd suddenly disappear from the show. Might have been a co-incidence, might not.

    We had that really high-profile twat celebrity from Dundalk's super-sweet 16 here a while ago!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,373 ✭✭✭The guy


    We have a DJ who works on fm104 here, Mark or mike nolan is his username.

    Can't get any more high profile than that.

    I believe that Mel Gibson is an active member over on the Muslim forum.

    I'm quite certain that Ronan Keating is that poster who enjoys children's shoes. So no, I don't know of anyone important on boards.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,799 ✭✭✭Tha Gopher

    Who? :confused:






    Messing :) But if you really were Glenda Gilson Im sure my question would infuriate you :D Come to think of it I havent seen her baps stretching the stitching on a bra in a newspaper photoshoot in many many months, where is she these days?

    Bertie could be on here[/SIZE]
    Ehhhhhhhhhh no.

    I think recent events prove that he can't even operate a pocket-calculator, never mind a PC.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,700 ✭✭✭tricky D


    Ehhhhhhhhhh no.

    Ehh, don't you mean a bank account, nevermind an intercertsuperwebnetwork account..?

    Didn't Dave McSavage ride in on his high horse a few years ago or was that just one of those sexy boards dreams I have on occasion?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 669 ✭✭✭pid()

    Yes, but the title of this thread is 'Is there anyone important on Boards?'.

    He did, as far as I remember... Got banned swiftly too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,854 ✭✭✭zuutroy


    Someone claiming to be David McWilliams was on a while ago. Not sure if it was him. Also, one of the best poker players in the world made a cameo appearance on the Poker forum a while back. I vaguely recall Faceman claiming he rocked the casbah with some celebrity who's a member of boards too, but he was tight lipped.
