    I'm tired of pointing out the sig rules only to find ridiculous, piss-taking adverts in peoples sigs. The rules are stickied here. I'm done being nice and there will be no more warnings from the start of 2008.

    Macau_Cork can come back after a week once they understand the rules.

    Yep.

    Firstly have a re-read of the reasons Dev gave for the banning in the OP, i.e.:
    DeVore wrote:
    I'm tired of pointing out the sig rules only to find ridiculous, piss-taking adverts in peoples sigs. The rules are stickied here.
    And then I said to look at the stickies in this forum.

    This is actually a helpful thread, as now people may read the stickies every now and again...

    Macau actually had a banner sized image advert in theirs. Thats just taking the p1ss, honestly. I mean, how much more in our face can it get?? Thats what really annoys me.
    Its hard to turn a blind eye when someone is SMACKING YOU IN THE FACE WITH IT.

    On the plus side, the Macau has been banned from here and I'm sure it has been discussed in their casino, which makes for an interesting turn-around.

    Wow, I went to see when the Macau's ban was lifted and he's back (somehow, dunno how yet) and he's put this back in his sig:

    <banner image snipped>

    Lol.... buy some advertising you cheap gits!

    Banned for a month now.

    agreed.

    cork posters probably account for about 95% of the trolls on here but several post seriously and actually contribute to the forum.

    He is an 'admin', not a 'mod'. Pretty pedantic I know, but an important distinction.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 780 ✭✭✭Captain Tom


    bah. im no good at sarcasm.


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    Sorry, I *was* joking. I think I have been relatively supportive of Cork poker, I've done several reports from down there. But I had just cleaned up ANOTHER thread that was disrupted by the Macau haters and I was in a sarcy mood last night. Then I noticed that sig and frankly its taking the mick.

    I had thought I had been OTT enough to indicate I wasnt being entirely serious! :rolleyes:

    LMAO. Beautifully ironic.

    I do too, it's great, but it gets even better especially when people in the same thread then quote a lowly mod (i.e. me) and say "have look up the rules on your site...." :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,533 ✭✭✭ollyk1


    Cheers Dev for outing all those Cork posters in one nice and easy post. Now I can just click ignore to the lot of them without breaking a sweat.....

    Lol and I was about to remove that sticky cos we have too many! I'll ban DeV now so he doesn't interfere again.

    not yet but might after month ban :D:D:D


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    On foot off apologies and assurances of future rules compliance, I'm "commuting" this to a warning. I'm far too soft.

    Besides, you know what those corkys are like... :p

    DeV.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,881 ✭✭✭bohsman


    They should probably change the sig then...


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    Actually thats my fault. A banned user can't edit his sig and I forgot to last night. Its done now.

    Hopefully this is public enough to get everyone's attention. I've cut the banner image from this thread so as not to give any more advertising out. Its not the money, its the simple respect tbh.

    DeV.
    ps: I dont think Pokerevents-Ste has sigs turned on.... :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,724 ✭✭✭nicnicnic


    I'm just amused by Devs sig, I know its for charity but surly he deserves a week ban for breaking his rules


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    Breaking which rules? The rules are about poker organisers advertising in their sigs....

    Racial Abuse. Not only do i have to put up with English ex-pats over here including my wife :p , I log onto boards and I see a doyen of boards whom i did have respect(well a l'il bit anyway ;)) for slagging my fellow Corkonian brothers off. Long live the people's republic I say, Viva!;)

    I agree.

    If you have an issue with Cork people, maybe you should take it to the After Hours or some other thrash talk forum. Then again if an admin has a pockshot at us, I suppose every other Tom, Dick and 58o thinks it's fair game to have a go at us too here :rolleyes:

    I also agree. Let's get this topic back on topic please.


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    There isnt a topic. This thread is over. I was joking.

    It seems I'm not allowed to. :(


    58o, thanks for making it serious. :rolleyes:
