Cool to be banned?

    Is there a certain kudos to being banned?

    I dont post that often or maybe its just that I'm so nice but as far as I'm aware I've never even got a warning. Looking at the feedback forum is a good laugh now and again but it makes me feel a bit left out.

    Basically - have you made it on boards if youv'e never been a bold boy/girl?

    Is there anywhere you can check who is the biggest badass on boards?





    P.S. No I don't actually want one (sort of)

    Not really, site ban = kudos in some way I suppose.

    I was site banned 5 years ago , dark days.

    Are you sure? I can ban you from Experimental Music if you wanna see what it feels like? (Big loss to you I'm sure :pac:)

    I've never been banned so I know what you mean, I wonder if it would make me feel like a badass :cool:

    Each time I get banned from a forum I become a better and more confident lover.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36,634 ✭✭✭✭Ruu_Old


    You have your name in lights* when you get banned so if you reckon thats kudos then good for you. Boards stock goes up when a muppet gets sitebanned. :)


    *the banlist..no lights.

    You’re not hardcore unless you have been sitebanned and come back again ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 842 ✭✭✭starflake


    I'd hate to be banned...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,148 ✭✭✭✭KnifeWRENCH


    I think if you were truly cool, you wouldn't be on Boards in the first place! :P

    I've never been banned, and I'm extremely uncool. Coincidence? Perhaps not...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,368 ✭✭✭Smart Bug


    Evertime someone gets banned baby Jeebaz cries.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,759 ✭✭✭✭Princess Consuela Bananahammock


    As someone who's probably been handed the most deserved and frivilous bans, I'd say it depends on what you get banned for.

    Spam? No kudos.

    Shagging Kaoma's Ma? Kudos!!!

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

    Yes it is cool to be banged.

    Banned:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,028 ✭✭✭Hellm0


    I hath been bann-ed from Animals and Pets(Perm me thinks, still can't look at anything in there), World of Warcraft(temp) and been handed down warnings from up on high in the programming forum for aiding a known terrorist(some student) who was trying to make a crappy virus.

    Do I feel cooler for having these accolades of disobedience? Not really, but I do have a chuckle when I remember the post's I got banned for. At this stage though I've been on boards so long I think a site ban would be crippling to me, where else would I lurk during my work hours?

    By me of course. I wouldn't mind doleing out multiple bangings...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,789 ✭✭✭Caoimhín


    Mmm, cool is doing voluntary/charity work in your spare time. Getting banned from an internet chat site in your spare time is not cool.

    But then i dont know whats cool nowadays.

    Well if we're going to be like that about it.....

    .... I once listened to Band on the Run by Wings.

    That certainly didn't make me feel cool. :mad:

    Then you had 8 good years to listen to the song as it was released in 86.

    Here Comes the Hotstepper! (Ini Kamoze)? Or does Caoimhín have a Secret (Madonna)? Then again, he could have been Counting Crows (Mr. Jones) out by his lake?

    Badass? On boards? Haha I'm sure you'll get some who think they are.

    And if there are kudos in being banned then it's probably saddest thing I've ever heard of.

    *pops collar* Yeah I did time, several times, a siteban for a few months. But I'm back to teach the kids you don't wanna go down my route.



    I'm so f*cking cool tbh.
