    The mods were notified of a thread on after hours where it was discussion of a lady being sexually assaulted.


    After all the hilarious jokes and people trying to shoot the messager and totally derail the thread with unrelated crap, there is still no sign of moderation


    Am I to take it that boards.ie think sexual assaults are hilarious and this is the norm?

    Okwell that's a memo that needs to be passed along to the moderators because for whatever reason known only to yourselves no action was taken.

    Perhaps they are all on holidays yesterday?

    One of our Moderators is legally blind, so out of respect, we tend to use less taunting verbs, like "consider" instead of "see". We want everyone to feel welcome, included and understood.

    I've never been accused of being funny, and to be honest, I feel insulted that you consider my comments to be anything other than serious.

    I see your mod ship. I'm not surprised you find this sexual assault funny.

    I'm also a police officer, which means I take sexual assault allegations very seriously indeed.

    Unfortunately the OP has closed their account, so that puts an end to this thread.

    Still feel insulted.. just for the record.
