    How did you make a tit out of yourself on boards?

    One night I was locked and arguing in the soccer forum with 2 guys thinking it was the same person, what followed was me quoting the 2 of them saying you keep changing the arguement etc :pac:

    Another time I posted drunk on the bargain alerts forum with a special offer from the company I worked for, I got rumbled by posters because the offer wasnt out yet but denied to the ground and got cheeky with a poster.....she didnt like it and was threatening to contact my job.....Im not there anymore so dont care :D sorry Zaph it wasnt "my friend" working there. :pac:

    When I figured out that all you had to do was highlight the words that were spoilered to see what they were. I had been pressing quote to see what was hidden behind the spoiler tags. Felt like a right tit!

    An introductory "What's the craic with IW these days" comment in the IW thread in the Politics Cafe was like walking into a propeller.

    My shame.

    Em I'm not sure.

    I outed a re-reg poster on a thread a while back. It was almost like I forgot I was on a public forum. I can be a little abrupt in some of my posts and when I read back I think "jaysus Persepoly you could have been gentler".

    What else. My opinions on certain topics aren't entrenched so I'm always willing to take on board a different side. This can sometimes cause me to start off with one position and then change a few pages in. It makes me seem flakey but really I'm very open to other views.

    I tried to edit a poll once.


    Some people still won't let me forget the disaster that followed.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test
