    I think only subscribers can change their name.

    With one post, you're as well to just re-reg. :D

    Pm Accident and see if he will lift the ban.

    Your account wasn't banned by accident. Who unbanned you? Oh wait, nm, you're banned again.

    Oops.

    Christ could everyone stop being tools for 2 seconds, his account looks somewhat messed up from my view point.

    PCLivehack: You can pay to become a subscriber. The options are under the user CP. Alternatively you can change you email address (also under user CP) and re register using your existing account.

    There's a thread in Ah at the moment about changing your real name.

    I have decided to change mine.

    From now on, I will be known as G.O'D. pronounced "God".

    I'll do it properly next month when someone tells me who the guy is who you give money to and he pays for subscriptions for those of us without credit cards.

    Ive been calling you God for ages. Oh, god.......

    OP. 1. Subscribe. 2. Grovel pitifully to an admin. 3. Sleep with a mod.

    I cant guarantee the last two suggestions will work.

    PCLiveHack.... you were banned for sending unsolicited PM's. Frankly why Cloud has seen fit to unban you I dont know. I wouldnt and I dont intend lifting a finger to assist you as a result of your spammy background.

    PcLive magazine -- Help needed
    Hi,
    First of all sorry for invading your cyber space without prior warning.
    I am writing an article for PCLive magazine on building your own PC.
    The editor is looking for user perspective of someone that has recently upgraded OR has had a difficult experience with the relevant part of his rig (my tower collapsed so I needed to get a new one blah blah).

    We also want to do a sort of VOX pop asking: what rules of thumb people used in making purchases. Were you happy with what they got? What advice would you give anyone in making their purchase?

    If interested in contributing please PM me or mail me (ASAP) at eamon.mcgrane@gmail.com

    Thanks and regards,

    Eamon

    I'd prefer if i didn't receive this sort of crap.

    It's a pitty he has an email address with such good spam protection, i was really looking forward to signing him up and giving him a taste of his own crap.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,163 ✭✭✭✭Boston


    A ****, I pick one user not to be an asshole towards and he turns out to be a muppet. Why do i even try.

    ah well don't blame yourself, maybe next time you won't pick a muppet :D


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


    I've banned the OP and wiped out every PM he ever sent. Sorry about the bother lads. Report any others you get, if they persist in this I'll go on the offensive.

    DeV.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,401 ✭✭✭✭Anti


    Justice. Now to wait untill he re-registers and we pick up his ip and block that too.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 111 ✭✭Plan_D


    OP = most brass necked and gobsh1te thing I have ever seen in my time on boards.

    It broke my StupidO'Meter.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5 The Other Hack


    Jaysus lads your lifeskills are something to behold.

    but it's been comedy gold and great material for an article on boards, admins and mods...

    BTW...I have had permission from the Mod/admin to reregister. So don't jerk the knee ok...

    ta ta for now...

    Sorry if I've p*ssed some off and thanks to those who were kind enough to respond with good info. Many thanks.

    Ok, so you had permission.
    Why didn't you register as "The Hack"?

    BTW, I don't want any unsolicited PM's from you. Thanks.

    Tried to...I think it was already taken...

    regarding PMs, naively, I didn't consider them as spam especially since I'm not selling anything just looking for help.

    And in fairness they were all sent before the Mod said DON'T send any PMs.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators, Regional South East Moderators Posts: 24,056 Mod ✭✭✭✭Sully


    Im confusled. You were banned for spamming, despite being told from mods to stop, and you come back apparently with permission for the admins to say you did no harm.

    Are you sure you work for that magazine? I doubt you do

    No. I was just saying that the PMs were sent before the Mod said something like "just don't send PMs" By that stage they had been already sent or at least they had been sent before i saw the Mods PM to me.

    When you write your poison pen piece on the horrors of being banned for spamming for people to write your article for you, make sure you mention how you sent unsolicited messages and emails (some people get PM's by email) on behalf of PCLive. It is, after all, illegal in this country.

    DeV.
    ps: Its DeVore... get the spelling right and capitalise the V if you wouldn't mind, its something of a tradition.

    Okay. What part of "Unsolicted" dont you understand? Why do you go around contacting people who did not ask you to contact them? Its spamming. People dont like being spammed.

    Also, why cant you write the bloody article yourself, without getting others do the work for you?

    I think a word with the boss wouldnt do astray here DeV..

    I really, really don't like lazy plagiarising little twats.

    Particularly spamming, parasitic,lazy, and plagiarising little twats.

    Hypocritical too, for coming here, breaking the rules of our community in an attempt to utilise this site to their advantage, and then berating us when they don't get their way.

    I'm sure both of your readers will enjoy the article anyway :rolleyes:

    While I'm sure 6th will honour your request, I don't think anybody posting content anywhere on the world wide web can expect a guarantee that it won't be quoted or copied elsewhere.

    What did you expect?
    I refuse consent to be quoted, you comment that I cannot do so, you may find that is my prerogative to do so, I am not quoted anywhere on Karl's site BTW, some banter between 6th and myself ensues.
    Welcome to the all electric Intarweb.
