Prison

dobman88 · 2013-09-30 05:17:20

I am probably risking some kind of ban or warning myself but I was just scouting around boards in places I don't normally look and I found the "prison" forum. Some light entertainment from some people who got bans but this guy just made me laugh hysterically. From 2011-2 weeks ago! Some people never learn!…

It's where people go to get shanked and raped, but not necessarily in that order.

Chemical burn can be found in there from time to time. Usually under a pseudo name:)

I was wondering why the TV forums were so quiet!

Tis a bit mad for someone who's been on the site for 10 years to end up getting a permanent site ban after that long.

Simple. The more trouble you cause in the long run is still recorded.

You can be a member for ten years and rack up bans and infractions and you just finally get noticed and get banned.

It's one of the better things about the site, TBH.

Unlike other places were you have serial trolls that go unnoticed (not saying anyone on this site is a serial troll). At least here if you waste time you'll be dealt with.

I just found it funny that it was a yearly thing for 3 years. And as the admin pointed out he had a few infractions between those times. He obviously didn't take the hint. I found it amusing. That's all

Yeah it's funny, and weird too, like when the mod apologies for late response then bans the guy forever.

Boards is like some strange place that the Starship Enterprise would visit occasionally and then escapes from in a hurry.

I find the behaviour and characteristics of many whom inhabit this strange place called Boards.ie to be non-human in character. Especially those who inhabit this place on a daily basis.

Beam me up Scotty.

Kind of ends the clique talk that often gets thrown out, post counts don't really matter that much, especially if you are causing bother on a few forums on the site but contributing on 1 or 2.

Mad Men's Don Draper : What you call love was invented by guys like me, to sell nylons.

So, this permanent site ban, is it for good? Of a permanent nature?

It was much more entertaining in the old days when the convicts could interact with each other *, and I think each others threads.

/ whimsical sigh + free Bubbles etc.

* possible pun intended

There's a clue somewhere in the name apparently.

I only ever ran across him in the TV boards, and very occasionally in an AH thread, I'd no idea he was clocking up warnings and bans in subforums. Blimey.

I think he/she was banned for trolling the xbox one thread. Final straw that broke the camels back. Pity cos he/she was a good source of info in the TV Forum. :

Hey OP

There's a pretty good thread on Prison here.

We can't discuss reasons for individual bans though I'm afraid.
