    Bobo, would you not take a leaf out of all the other moderators' books and give a warning as opposed to just locking the thread outright?

    In fairness the thread was going into pretty rough water, and pretty damn fast too! I wouldn't be surprised if this one follows the same path... Ya might wanna try PMing him instead...

    Unf Unf

    He's done it more than once. And if a warning doesn't work it doesn't take much to lock.

    Is there any method of complaint about modding? I say John2 needs to be a mod!


  • Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 21,504 Mod ✭✭✭✭Agent Smith


    perhaps mod Elections .... like the sebats!



    \VOTE SMITH Unf Unf!

    The shear volume of crap posted on this forum and hte way every single thread goes off topic is scary. About time the mods did something.

    Relax on the mutiny boys.

    Darth Bobo's just having some hormonal problems due to exams. All will be well in a few weeks. just let's all try and stay on topic.

    However, somebody needs to listen to the common people a bit more.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 975 ✭✭✭Plunky


    We're STUDENTS! Of COURSE we go off topic!.. And so what if we're lazy and don't wanna start a new thread when things stray off course?!

    AS: You feeling okay? That's an awful lotta Unfing for one guy!..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,487 ✭✭✭Kevin_rc_ie


    Simply if every thread stayed strictly on topic we'd have 30 new threads a day with 3/4 posts in it. Cop on to yourself Louville. The forum was created to discuss Trinity College and Trinity College Students to discuss.


  • Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 21,504 Mod ✭✭✭✭Agent Smith

    the cobellstones....


    yay or nay?
    Definitely yay! Cuz they're pretty, they keep my trousers semi-dry when it rains, and I don't have to cycle over them!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 975 ✭✭✭Plunky


    who ARE you?!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,163 ✭✭✭✭Boston


    Lets not turn this topic about Pies into a topic about me, please. It will only piss off the original poster.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,487 ✭✭✭Kevin_rc_ie


    in fairness Lou your point has been made about our off topicness and casual immaturity. So would you kindly stop insulting everyone?

    wow look at it go off topic with mindless ****e.

    I'll throw in a reference to crash's love life and mention YOUR MA while I'm at it. woot woot where students and we're thick woot woot.

    Grow the fuk up.
    That sort of crap requires action. In fact probably a lock. But let's just try this out.

    Please stop knowingly and intentionally breaking the rules of this board with no aim other than to annoy.

    Edit: Veering off-topic =/= flaming.

    Not everyone just your good self .

    You see Angry Banana I know it's crap, I know it shouldn't be posted, I don't need a warning. I've made the conscious decision to drag this topic off topic, and now back on topic. You now know that no warning will be given and that any topic crap is libel to get a thread closed, wheres the problem. Maybe you should warn yourself before you post.

    me finks LiouVille a troll...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,487 ✭✭✭Kevin_rc_ie


    well he learned from the best.

    Imo warnings are only needed if a ban is involved. If the thread has tred dodgey ground it warrents a locking. And yes, pm'in the mod would have been the right way to go about this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,382 ✭✭✭snorlax


    there's absoloutely no point in getting annoyed etc by LiouVille's posts, for the 30,000 people on boards a few of us are bound to have different opinions. best everyone aggrees to disaggree?!
    and maybe LiouVille could remember there's always more productive ways of getting you point across then using bad language/ insulting. people would probably respect you more if you didn't insult them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,114 ✭✭✭Kappar


    PMing the mods would have been a better solution than starting this thread.

    LiouVille please stop trolling anymore and I'll ban you.

    Locked.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,314 ✭✭✭Nietzschean


    since this thread refers to me mostly i sorta feel obliged to reply :
    For 1 :
    Your 'spam' thread was locked for being just that John so stop complaining, you should know better and not require warnings.
    2.
    AB's comment was an attempt to start a complete flame war and tbh if i see another one like it i'll ban him for a week, we arn't here to try make insulting references to people.


    And in future as i've said before if you have any issues with my modding pm me,kapper,Apex or one of the admins.
