A Beginners Guide to AH

Where To

1. When you see 'last post by Sharpshooter' on a thread you started it probably means it has been (justifiably) locked.

2. Don't type any posts with more than ten words in them as no one reads them.

3. Never start threads at 3am.

4. People who write in list format are invariably idiots.

Can anyone think of any more?

5. Yes

6. Post number three is either a banned phrase or "in before the lock"
edit: 7. Someone will always post just as you are writing your witty repost.

Dangerous Man

7. If you have a question that you really need answered you should probably just PISS OFF SOMEWHERE ELSE

Too predictable

I've seen them converted into 5 bed semi's here..but sure its all recycling

mauzo

If you're thinking about starting a thread, don't.

You're just not funny enough and the witty smart arse replies will leave you feeling even worse about your life.

Also, never be the first person to post on a thread. You're definitely not funny enough for that.

Leave that to the big boys

I don't know. Numbers aren't sentient and therefore are unable to experience fear.

I'd give it a 3/10 at best, probably would only shag it if I was locked.

You mean, let me understand this cause, ya know maybe it's me, I'm a little fcuked up maybe, but I'm funny how, I mean funny like I'm a clown, I amuse you? I make you laugh, I'm here to ****in' amuse you? What do you mean funny, funny how? How am I funny?

Always assume that every thread will immediately descend to the lowest common denominator.

Hardonraging

Innuendo and sexual gratification is rife here !! not to mention the sneaky flirting, and mod dodging shenanigans ..

And that's all before we even get to the sarcasm ..

Really? Had to laugh last night. She was obviously on a power trip and locked the Maeve Binchy thread for no reason (well the official line being that there was a thread in Condolence forum). Thank God one of the male Mods with a bit of common sense deleted her post and reopened the thread.

EoghanIRL

Ah is probably not the best place for advice on personal matters.

El Guapo!

436. No matter what the thread is about, someone will always blame foreigners, the government, people on the dole, or the mods.

689. Josef Fritzel usually gets a mention somewhere in every thread.

Ah_Yeah

Second post is generally the "Thanks Whore" post

It's a great way to get a wide (ridiculous) range of opinions on current affairs.

Also, if you're too lazy to read all the newspapers/watch the news, it's pretty handy to find out what's going on in the world. It's probably wrong though.

Create a poo thread

Even if it is a poo thread, you legally have to Godwin it within 5 pages.

Don't come into AH thinking "i'm gonna fix this place"

If someone says "town" they mean Dublin city.

And everyone from outside Dublin will get offended, everyone from Dublin will get defensive and the thread will then turn into a 'Jackeens v Culchies' argument

I think this is a bad idea. This place is one of the dumbest corners of the internet. I wonder why I bother reading it. Sometimes it reminds me that I'm not as stupid as I think I am, like the recent gambling system thread.

Mint Sauce

Britain/UK/British Isles, or Ireland/Island of Ireland threads are allows good for a laugh.

There is more than one O'Connell Street in the country though.

when a controversial thread title appears, read the first page, then the last one straight after, its a good measure of how much of a trainwreck the topic descends into.
