    Not sure if this is not just a bad joke or what but if Ecksor has really stepped down I have to say he will be a big loss to this site. Like many others I had my "issues" with him but I respect the tough job he had trying to Police this place with its diversity of opinions and I did like the dry humour he used when passing sentence.

    In one of my first threads on Boards I got myself into a row here on feedback. I felt I was being oppressed and being a noob I started to spout off about my right of free speech etc etc and Ecksor reply was "you have the right to remain silent, Now stfu" . I though that was a classic put down.

    I don't know why he is gone but whatever it is the guy has obviously given a lot of time and effort to the site and whether you agreed with his decisions or not he usually had a spark of humour in his deliberations and for that he deserves hugh credit.

    Thanks Ecksor I fear you'll be a hugh loss.

    I'd say what happened is the yanks heard about your opression and decided to 'bring democracy' to boards.ie ... this is clearly all your fault.
    Hard luck ecksor, say hello to saddam for us won't you?

    Seriously though, great effort over the years from ecksor. Have yourself a well earned break from the whiney noobers.

    True WWM. I've only been here since December but never had any bad experiences with him.Why did Ecksor step down anyway, does anyone know?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,174 ✭✭✭D


    I thought he had a good approach, wherever there was muppetry you land on it, hard. This discouraged more of it.

    Whilst I'd mirror the sentiment of the thread.

    My understanding in Gerry Adams would describe this as "he hasn't gone away you know" - a sabbatical afaik.

    With that dry cool wit he could be an action movie star.

    Ecksor, most people have to deal with a dearth of human stupidity in their day to day life. To make it your hobby to deal with inane stupid mupperty on the internet, that takes a special kind of crazy. I personally expected you to snap, go out on the roof of trinity college with a high powered rilfe, and start getting proactive about this crisis......

    "He's not gone away you know". We have a few things to sort out and once thats done we'll be back on the road I hope, better then ever. I do miss him, even though I argue with him a lot :):)

    I miss ecksor too, he was the tastiest admin by far!, I could lick him all day long.

    Therefore, I too would like to subscribe to the Ecksor Appreciation Society. Do you have a slogan? teeshirts? Banners?

    Oh yeah? Then why did you post saying you were chillipop/basquillech to Basquille and then edit it after Mathhew the Big started a thread on Feedback about it? Jesus Fitz, you just don't learn. It's irritating gom's like you nthat drove ecksor away.

    And gits like MickFarr, who seem to think trying to annoy someone is a hobby. I'm surprised Eck lasted so long, we suffer fools too much in general life, to act as Gandalf the grey to the Balrogs of muppetry for so long. We salute you.

    LMAO.

    He is/was a legend. Very hard working, from a boards perspective, and quite helpful. More than once I have had his put downs/answers in my sig. While he had the ability to make Jesus call him a fcukwit at stages, he is just so damn funny you had to laugh.

    You're Right

    Nobody said he was always right, Who is? He still deserves credit for all the crap he had to put up with from self righteous gob sh1tes that surface here so regularly . Prison will never be the same again, [I always read that for a laugh]
