    That thread was faster than the speed of stupid. What did you expect?

    I like your neat turn of phrase there.

    Fair enough. I just read the thread again and it was a stupid thread, but no more so than many other threads which people seek to defend here. The niggardly thread springs to mind.

    You are right, the thread should die a painless death. Just wanted to know why it was closed much more quickly than other more obviously offensive threads.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,011 ✭✭✭cHaTbOx


    more obviously offensive threads.

    Yeah and the title of your thread was what?

    ironic?

    Idiotic?

    Your effort at humour failed. Now your complaining is only slightly more amusing.

    I'm really struggling to see where I can even give you any attempt marks.

    i'm not complaining. i'd give that thread very low marks myself. probably even a fail. but it was no worse than a lot of other threads which pass through after hours.

    Will you do me a favour and promise not to start another thread when this one gets closed for also being pointless? Thanks


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 156 ✭✭reregholdsworth


    i will

    if you let me in on one secret.

    how did you embed the you tube video so that it shows up in your post?


    unless you mean that i shouldn't start a thread on anything at all.

    i would fight the powah in that case.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,094 ✭✭✭✭javaboy


    You only need to put the 'code' inside the Youtube tags not the whole link. Quote my post and look at the Youtube tag.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,277 ✭✭✭✭Rb


    but it was no worse than a lot of other threads which pass through after hours.

    Wrong. Hence why it was locked.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 156 ✭✭reregholdsworth


    How exactly was it worse Rb?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,277 ✭✭✭✭Rb


    How exactly was it worse Rb?
    It is nothing short of a steaming heap of rhino diahorrea.

    Even the niggardly thread had some resemblance of substance to it, yours certainly did not.

    As for "no worse than a lot of other threads which pass through after hours", you find me 5 threads that are similar in sheer stupidy and that by reading one would waste a similar waste of time as the time people wasted reading your thread. It starts off bad, then gets even worse with every post you add.

    To think it wouldn't be closed is stupid in itself, let alone creating a thread questioning it.

    To be quite honest, there's nowhere on this site that will accomodate such crap.

    It did not contain any racist content.
    Yet the thread was closed.

    I do not understand why.

    Can someone please explain?

    Imo it was a stupid thread to start.
    Did you not read the the forum charter rules?
    Racism
    - Topics/posts containing such will be edited/deleted accordingly.

    If that thread had continued it would have caused a full scale arguement.
    For the sake of the thread closed fast to ensure less hastle that you would get.
    Im supprised that a ban did not apply.
    As a lot of other forums are taken much more seriously for racism.
    imo you should have been banned or site banned but its not up to me as its the decision that the moderators will decide.
    At the end of the day the we are all human.

    is there any point to this post?
    There wasn't.
    Simple as that.

    All questions were answered & matters resolved.
    We (By which I mean I) concluded and confirmed that you are indeed an idiot and no, there was no point to the thread so it was closed.
    Was that the point? Were you trolling in a spectacularly pitiful fashion?

    The basic idea of having fun at the sort of idiots who have gone from a position of ignorance (not knowing what niggard means) to a baseless assumption (assuming it's cognate with ******) and then complaining about it is a pretty sound one (and it's not like such people don't deserve to be mocked).

    The execution could have been a lot better, but the basic idea was okay.

    Yours was just pointless.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,099 ✭✭✭✭WhiteWashMan


    ironic?

    if you look up ironic in the dictionary, you will not find your thread title there.

    it was locked becuase the mod decided it needd to be locked.

    i agree. it was ****.
