    With relation to posts about moderators on personal forums ,I'm really curious about what people personally expect from boards.

    Me ,I don't get involved on this part of the site at all. I just post mediocre ways.
    I work in construction so I suppose ,it's not as real for me.

    How do you rate your intergration into the boards machine! ? 19 votes

    I am not alone ,we need to sort this S""t out.

    Just for the record it's an with an TLA for some reason, or so I am told.

    What does the poll have to do with the personal issues forum?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,332 ✭✭✭311


    Excuse me ,my time is now wasted ,heres your cue ticket back!
    So theres no thought in whats posted ,thats fair enough.

    I suppose a poll is too much to expect ,for a mediocre forum.

    I thought so myself, but I worked for a company which uses alot of TLA's and they insist we put AN in front of it.

    EDIT: And no, it doesn't begin with a vowel. :)

    Thats fair enough ,I'm a little drunk. Not that much though I thought.

    I really can't understand the crap on boards sometimes and why people are banned from forums.

    Making people take the internet too serious ,is a cause for concern.

    I dont use this part of the forum meself. I think it was in hee that I told some fella to puck the snot of the lad he found his missing mugging the face of. I got banned for a week for inciting violence or something along those lines.
    Other than that I haven't used this part of the site or any site to be honest to sort out my personl problems. I normally go to the pub and have a feed of bottles and an ould whinge if lifes getting me down. Wake up the next morning with a new lease of life.
    I dont feel the need to air my problems with strangers, I know that sometimes that is actuall;y better than talking to friends cos you will get straight answers, no baiting around the bush and that.

    I presume thats what your question was, if not well then ya know I like beer now lol.

    Thing is dude it the law that makes the admins take certain thing seriously
    cos the current law means they can be sued by people for the stuff on this site,
    the same as a newspaper can be sued.

    I utterly appreciate that and I really think boards is the best website in Ireland ,if not the world.
    But I really feel there is far too big a private group ,that decides what actually happens on boards now.
    And then there is people who sniff around looking for some of the pie.

    if there wasn't a core group to make decisions, nothing would be decided. you can't please everybody. what would you like to see, a poll on every mods decision? i still don't get what you're after...

    There has to be ,but it's so blatantly obvious and abused on forums like these.

    The in jokes and the sniffing that goes along with it ,is so obvious. It annoys me ,because it will be an end to the respect the site has built.

    Excuse me ,my time is now wasted ,heres your cue ticket back!
    Personally ,I would try to avoid the in jokes in public and then people might not have such big issues with mod decisions.
    It insults people.

    The way I see things at the moment is ,one set of rules for mods and one for users. It's not fair on mods ,which dont acutally have any malice towards users on boards.
