    What's the funniest thread where the original poster was caught out, doesn't have to be nasty or anything. Just looking for a good thread to read - the ones I read have gone quiet. Any links.

    Why don't you post links?

    Why don't you post links?

    I read motor and sports mostly, I'm just looking to read something funny that I haven't seen before on here, could be years old I don't mind. Maybe someone on here remembers a thread where for instance a work colleague or family member called out an original poster - even if they tried to go as a private poster, as I said doesn't have to be nasty just something worth reading that's all. Bit of humour

    Probably long gone now but there was a thread in the gambling forum ages ago where one user was always boasting about the mad bets he was winning every week, he always had a screenshot of every one and defended himself against anyone who smelled a rat but one night instead of a link to a screenshot he accidentally posted a link to his photobucket account where everyone could see a load of screenshots of his losers at various stages of being photoshopped into winning bets, he didn't reply to any of the 20 pages of ridicule afterwards, just never posted again.

    Quite a good few prison threads have been caught out. The inmate looks foolish.

    Not allowed to post links under pain of prison mods.

    Pity they don't approve posts where they're caught out

    I dont know if it counts as caught out but Im eating my breakfast Kate certainly amused.

    Not a boards thread, but there was this EU commissioner who claimed he'd correctly quarantined in Ireland for two weeks after arriving from abroad, before a Sunday newspaper published evidence to the contrary.

    Think it cost him his job.

    Plenty.

    Poster claiming to be a woman in one thread and a man in another depending on who they are trying to defend or attack. They are well known for it now, and regularly caught out talking sh1te.

    Poster claiming that they didn't have access to their old account on here and lost the password when recognised by another poster and two days later posts from their old account and thanked it with their new account.

    The conspiracy theories, immigration etc threads often have people being caught out and that some are just arseholes. While some of the prison and disputes threads can be a bit of a eye opener as to just how mentally f*cked up some of them are.

    Can we please keep the scope of this thread to discussing past threads.

    A link was posted to a new and ongoing thread that has been started today in another forum. It is unfair to turn a live thread into a spectator sport for the amusement of AH and to possibly invite a pile on into that thread which would otherwise wreck it. Please lets be sensible about this.

    Jesus, the “list” grows further. A scurrilous, and false, accusation. And still the mods do nothing.

    I remember there was a post about retirement and age and pension a while back. That was funny.

    Nah, ya know when Johnny is telling a yarn he's seeing it in his minds eye.

    I'd pay no attention, Emmet. The sort of people who make these accusations and get worked up about it are the sort of deathly dull posters that no one remembers. They just don't have our chutzpah, charisma, and balls. It's a jealousy thing.

    Keep up the good work, dude.

    Thanks J, I’d urge you not to make any “disparaging” remarks about our, little, “fan club”.

    They seem to be in “cahoots” and plan out their “attacks” in a way that they get others to run to the mods if you say anything. Quite cowardly, if you ask me.

    They’d enjoy an element of “protection” too so just be careful out there.

    I've said it before, there are only half a dozen unique posters on Boards and I'm at least five of them.
