    Seems those on politics.ie are having a little debate about us here!

    A few quotes from politics about boards.ie
    Does anybody here use boards.ie ? My god the mods over there are very power mad, I cant understand how the owners let them get away with it, I know people that were members for years that have closed their account lately because of power mad mods.

    Its probably one of the busiest websites in the country afaik..certainly one of the busiest forums

    and yep, the moderators are a complete shower of forum nazi's.
    From what i've heard a lot of that stems back to MCD trying to sue them for people giving out about the oxegen festival
    Gave up using that site a couple of years back. Idiotic, PC, power mad yob mods would do your head in. I never use it now.

    So, fair comment, biased or downright wrong?

    politics.ie used to be someway alright but in the last 12months its utter rubbish to be honest. Doesnt seem to be an moderation what so ever and seems to be infested with trolls. Pity really used to enjoy using it but not any more.

    Pretty spot on to be honest. The days of proactive rather than reactive moderation on this website is long gone.

    How do we get rid of them though?

    I used to post in politics.ie but every post was attacked by FF faithful en-mass.
    I said "screw this - I don't need their "delusions of grandeur" and arrogance, and stopped posting to what is a lot of blind cult like members there.

    Not all but some of the members there are so full of themselves - and surprisingly (well not really) most are FF party related!
