Dublin is big and lots and lots of people live/work there, this site is for people to talk about stuff, lots of people talking about Dublin is kinda inevitable

But... wasn't that my point? I thought we were having an argument. Are you playing some kind of cruel mindgames?

Compared to some err . . . certain forums . . . boards.ie is very lenient.:)

I agree with stuff, but I also disagree with things.

There. I've said it. Nailed my colours to the mast right there.

I think mods think posters are uber sensitive, I suggested someone might be mental because they wouldn't go out with someone with the same name as an ex.
Which I stand by, it is mental.

Seemingly I'm not allowed to say something is mental. Which means if someone says they like to skin small animals and use them as puppets I can't say it's mental.

Wahey! Aren't we sensitive.

This is a privately owned website. If you don't like their rules, go elsewhere. Simple as that really.

It's fine just the way it is and that's why it's the largest discussion forum in Ireland. They must be doing it right.

In your opinion they are, but people are allowed to question it.

Questioning things can lead to good things you know.

OP, 1. You sir, are a *blank*.

2. That post was one of the biggest loads of drivel I've ever heard.



Try the second one; it can be insulting without getting you banned. It's personal attacks that aren't tolerated, but you can attack ideas with great vitriol if you like.

True, but when it's the same question being asked over and over and over it gets kinda pointless. We have done this subject to death in feedback, it comes up all the time.

Yes boards is modded firmly. The majority have no problem with that. The minority who do can either abide by the rules here or go somewhere else with different rules. The majority, the ones who make this the largest discusion board in Ireland as was already pointed out, are the ones who will be listened to. The system is not going to change to suit the vast minority of people who can't work within it.

Lolcat time?

Not according to the mods I've dealt with. . .

Agreed, wont say what forums, but i'm perma banned from a few, mostly for stating sound fact-based rational opinions that in no way attacked a poster. I can't even remember the last time a mod on here told me to "shut it".










Awaits a mod to tell me to shut it:pac:

Does it have to be an AH mod? Cos I've got quotas to fill, I'm good on the ban numbers but my abuse levels need improving this quarter

OK, but i need to find the level first, say i went over there and said "the pro-wrestling forum should have a PI style "go un-registered" option so poster could hid their shame or enjoying wrestling" would that get your little timmy a new pair of shoes:D







Ok its trolling at this stage

There's plenty of banter allowed. Someof us can just manage to string it together without resorting to three swear words per sentence.

Get over yourself and go back to the langer contae.

Awww cork1 are you feeling battered and bruised?
You have been condemned,You have been laughed at,You have been told to go back to the peoples republic of cork,you have been preached at,you have been moderated to from non mods,you have been reminded of the rules,you have been condescended to.
bet when You started the thread it was with no malice,just a train of thought kind of thing.........banging your hand on head saying "why the fcuk did i post that now?

the upside is if you had just stopped at" implications" Your post would proably have got zero replies,instead it has run to four pages:pac::pac::pac::pac::pac::pac:
(they love it really;);):P)
