    All threads that are posted are generally the same.
    Threads get locked for very stupid things.
    Not enough random posts.
    Any mention of anything that may seem a bit dodgy to 1 or 2 people gets locked.
    The general humour is just terrible and would only be funny to people who have no lives.
    This is afterhours... all posting should be allowed as long as its not pornographic or illegal.

    Why am i on this? I signed up ages ago and rarely log in anymore.

    Countdown till lock ... 5 ... 4....

    then get the fudge out.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 4,193 ✭✭✭Turd Ferguson


    WTF?

    Starting a thread with a post of "**** fap fap fap" is why it gets locked

    Posting replies to people messages with that is okay though. You gotta play the system :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th


    I dont think this should be locked.

    I find Boards boring too at times - if it was like an acid trip 24/7 then it would burn out very quickly. If I want entertainment on tap I go elsewhere but if I want interaction I come here.

    Oh I'm sorry, I didn't notice you hadn't been posting.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 290 ✭✭Tak3n


    A simple rule change would fix the problem. I should be able to tell anyone what i think of them providing its not racist.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,771 ✭✭✭jebuz

    I'm not trying to impress you...agree with OP

    Tak3n, have you considered multi accounting? Mixing it up a bit so to speak? Might help with the monotony? Just a thought!

    Permission?

    Sure what's the worst a mod will do? Ban you? Would have thought you'd like that.

    Tbh people who post plaintitive wails about how crap Boards has got and rail against the powah and the mods that they insist have caused the situation but are so desperately frightened about getting banned they look for permission to insult someone else smell like attention whores to me.

    That'll never happen and rightly so. Are you civilised to others in real life? Why not go away, ahem, and start your own forum?

    im so sorry... would you perhaps like a thread about polish or scumbags? Maybe that would suit your tastes a bit more. You unfunny cu*t i mean, nice person.

    I can see wheer the OP is coming from with the controversial threds being locked. I mean, all thos paedophile threads were nipped in the budded aftr only twenty pages or so.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Take Daithi's advice, I only hate a few of his incarnations.


    Hi David :D

    Can't really imagine anyone did. There's too much exciting stuff happening on Boards to take our minds off it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 184 ✭✭vodkadub


    Your depressing me, its friday!

    I agree, same topics day in day out...

    Facebook is the same....

    I have been more productive in work though which is good :)

    You can say what you like about anyone you please. Just not here.

    Oh... you wanted to say it where all the OTHER people are hanging out?? Oh, well, they have these things called "social norms" and "etiquette", not to mention "manners" and "mores". If you want them/us to read what you write then you should accept the group rules. Of course you dont HAVE to you can start your own blog, but then no one will read it will they? Cos no one is really all that interested in your bile (apart of course, from you). Well, too bad, you take the access to the community along with the rules it has laid down. Cant have your cake and eat it.

    DeV.
    ps: I think that if you find Boards boring it probably says more about you then the site. I have interests in Photography, Poker, Piano, Politics (weird, never noticed they all started with P before). So Boards for me is like a giant smorgasbord of interesting stuff. Maybe you should a) grow up and stop being juvenile b) widen your horizons.

    All the best!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,497 ✭✭✭✭Dragan


    I never fail to wonder at the kind of mind that posts to complain about content of a message board. At the end of the day you are a user with the same ability to post as anyone else. If you find a board lacks posts that interest you then maybe you should just start some?

    Well done cutting and pasting that out of the td. Beyond you to come up with your own?

    You come crying on here like an 8 year old who's discovered Santa doesn't exist, wiping tears of frustration and self pity away. Bleating about how you haven't posted in a while because you're bored. Poor baby.

    There's fuking dozens of forums on here so if you can't find something to post in it's because you have no interests whatsoever beyond listening to yourself hitch and whine. In rl your world must revole around sending "deeply concerned" letters to the Irish Times and ringing Joe Duffy.

    Seriously how self important are you? Do you think anyone really gives a toss whether you post or not? Do you think anyone missed you or will miss you? You're a nonentity mate.
