There seems to be a distinct lack of moderation on the forum. The forum contains profanity and blasphemy from the antichrist.

The first post on the thread contains profanity

I hope that you can help. Such cursing should not be allowed on any forum but especially not the Christianity forum.

Why a whole feedback thread? Just PM one of the mods about your outrage.

Gareth37

Sorry, I thought that this is what this is for.

I just pmed you. Bad language shouldn't be tolerated especially since a lot of children use boards.ie.

Overheal

the conversation was fairly legitmate: his last post there was not, where he started on about the last supper and all that.

dr.bollocko

Oh for fuck sake don't be so goddamn ridiculous.

tribulus

I don't know if you're being serious or not but if you take it up with one of the moderators (I'm not one) they might do something about it. Feedback and Helpdesk are only supposed to be used after PM'ing the moderator and still not being satisfied with the outcome.

Don't go near the Thunderdome btw if you dislike reading bad language!

Yeah. Or outside your house or around other people or out to the pub or to a restaurant cinema or night club.
And whatever you do don't turn on the telly after 9 at night.

Im being very serious. Surely there is a rule against such language. Its really going out of control now, its very obvious that this person is there to mock and cause trouble only.

Down with that sort of thing!

Hagar

In all fairness the OP has a valid point. There's a time and place for everything and the Christianity forum is not the place for offensive, to Christians, Slayer album covers and bad language. It's humourless trolling and a stop should be put to it.

I've read that thread. For some reason i could only report one post,and the timer is now stuck. Meh. If you wanna throw stones in glass houses,you should be banned for backseat modding,or for posting on thread that a user should be banned.it just starts flame wars or drags off topic. Reported. *smash*

Hivemind187

In fairness Hagar some of the regulars there is not doing much to help the matter, y'know, actively engaging, baiting etc

OP
Antichrist??? WTF???

Edit: Seems to me you are wound a little tight. thats ok. We can help with that

Nerin

Oh,and i agree with hagar,christianity isn't the best place to discuss slayer ffs.

dr.bollocko

I dont think Nailz, in his optimism, was looking to discuss slayer in the christianity forum, rather the religious reasons as to why something as camply satanist as a slayer cover would be offensive. In fairness it wasn't really a trolling thread Hagar though I will grant you it is a bit light considering some of the heady discussion in the Christianity forum.
However I think that the question is a valid one and put in the right place. I also don't think that the use of swearwords was OTT because there was clearly no invective or malice meant behind it. I also do not see why Christianity and swear words are mutually exclusive. I have known priests and Christians that swear like sailors.

Boards.ie is rated 13+ and it is up to parents to monitor and restrict their children internet use and exposure.

Maybe the Christianity forum should be readable but closed off like Soccer? In fairness it's a sitting target for smart-arsery. At times I've had to hold back myself...

Wreck

Dunno why the op is so worried about bad language, does he not have other things to worry about given that he believes the end of the world or some other such bullsh1t is coming

Also, there is no god.

Please tell me this is a troll cos the alternative is too scarey to contemplate.

While language is *meh* posts like "Does this offend you?" are asking for trouble. Because if it doesn't you will find people will keep pushing it until someone gets banned, while annoying others in the process.

Short answer is, everything will offend someone somewhere.

Dades

I'm wondering how some people in that thread were not banned for being tools, and why that train wreck of a topic is not locked for good.

It's like some horrific dance-off between the Sharks in West Side Story and the LA Crips.

Troll. On the soccer forum at least, and his previous accounts on the horseracing forum - only 99% sure he is finnpark tho.

Delirium

The mods did warn about profanity early this morning.

http://boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=57886250&postcount=70

Also, from what I can see in the charter, blasphemy isn't against the rules. Would imagine it would stop a lot of threads if it did. No one would be able to question Gods existence for a start in the forum.

--amadeus--

I wouldn't say this in thread or in forum because of back seat modding but hey, this is feedback (must find cat pics...)

This guy gareth is either a sophisticated troll or slightly unhinged. I very much doubt that someone who pushes the beliefs he claims to hold could act as a functioning member of society. And I think (from other posts in other forums) that his persona in the christianity forum is a put on job.

And so he is pushing this whole blashemy / antichrist / uber-believer schtick. And people are rising to it and little mini-wars are breaking out all over the place. Methinks a big heavy dose of ban-stick and thread-lock bandied about for a few days would see the forum settle back to it's normal self.

This is the single best line I have ever seen posted here

Just wondering how long a similar thread woild have lasted on another forum, Islam for instance?

Zaph

Do other religions have an antichrist too? I'd love to see the Buddhist one.

Actually,there were many demons in buddhist lore,i'm sure someone from their forum could fill you in better than i could.

Maximilian

I read the OP's post and just thought "oh FFS".

That's it. ffs.

Please don't post pictures of Slayer on the forum or use naughty words, so we can get back to asking questions like "are athiests evil?".

Religious people are the most intolerant & smug I've ever met. If heaven is full of them, then hand me my trident & horns.

I see that you're not making generalisations so.

Post of the year IMO. It works on so many levels.
Unlike religion.

Define "religious people"? There are plenty of posters in the atheism forum who demonstrate no tolerance for anyone's spiritual beliefs.

While Im not sure of the seriousness of the OP in this thread, reading the relevant thread in the Christianity forum, it does appear like Nailz was poo stirring. While its not apparant in his original post, he asks for people's opinions which he proceeds to piss over with his point of view. For example the reason he doesnt find it offensive it because its cool and he loves Slayer. That doesnt make it less offensive to anyone else.

Really posters should have just ignored his thread though. And South of Heaven is a way better album.

+1 IMH like with gender roles, Ireland is still finding it's feet with religion. We've only quite recently come out of our rigid past. There's a touch of the adolescent rebellion in ireland about religion. Specifically catholicism/christianity. That end of it really get it in the neck for boringly obvious reasons.

As Hagar points out that thread would have lasted milliseconds in islam(or indeed any of the other religious fora). IMHO rightfully so. Reasoned debate fine. Extracting the urine, not so good. OK depending on the rigidity of the faith in question that line is blurred. Islam would be less tolerant than buddhism or christianity say, but that thread was clearly stirring though.

As for the OP being a troll? Probable, but I have met on more than one occasion real people who would hold similar views.

KnifeWRENCH

In fairness, I don't think Nailz was trolling - it was a fair question. But he should have kept the swearing down because it is specifically written in the Chirstianity charter that swearing ins't allowed.
Posts like this were unecessary.

On the other hand, Gareth is fairly obviously a troll:

Nailz is the antichrist? Well that's a bit disappointing. No offence to Nailz, but for an antichrist I'd expect something much more badass.
