    Hey,

    I was thinking, (and when I get thinking... who knows what'll happen) that next lets say paddies day, everyone on boards that'll be in dublin, and out on the day, should wear a tshirt saying, Hey Everyone I'm *BoardsNickName* of boards.ie, Say Hi. And then like that way everyone will get to know ppl. Also, it'll give you an idea, of the amount of ppl on boards. Like for al you know, maybe there's a Boards-own-e-on (phonetics) near you..

    Just a thought. A brilliant one at that.

    Or even better, buy the T-shirt and help boards out.

    jesus, yeah but this way like you cant know whos who.. image seeing, Hey I'm Shrimp of boards..... yeah I'd be attacked, bad idea.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,033 ✭✭✭DoctorEdgeWild


    Hi I'm DoctorEdgeWild of Boards.ie!

    I might just go around saying it alot. Great ice breaker with the ladies.

    Thanks for the link to the t-shirts - Hadn't seen them before.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,117 ✭✭✭Gazza22


    People already get to meet each other on the Boards Beers nights out

    But...good idea!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    yeah i know but this way, it's when u least expect it, ........

    You know, like a terminal illness but with t-shirts and smiling people! I'll do it! See you on Paddy's Day Shrimp!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    Yeah...no doubt.

    Haven't seen the tshirts before, BUT... considering the population of boards are mostly morbid depressing people :) Could we get the tshirts in black?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    yeah, there are a hell of alot of depressants on here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,678 ✭✭✭Selik


    Good idea, don't think I'd wear one though.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,958 ✭✭✭Chad ghostal


    good idea, but i'd prefer just a general boards t-shirt..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,618 ✭✭✭Civilian_Target


    Cool! Didn't know there were boards t-shirts :)

    Anything in blue?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    I'm sure if theres none in blue Civilian Target, you could always just make one form scratch of the site. Just "using" the boards logo. I'm sure they wouldn't mind.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,820 ✭✭✭Femelade


    why no t-shirts for ze ladies?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    afaik, Cafepress DO NOT give users a share of the money. If you want to help boards out can I recommend you donate or become a subscriber instead?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,835 ✭✭✭karlh


    why isnt there a link to the merchandise on the front page? i've never seen these either....if there was a decent range i think every regular would buy something!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,099 ✭✭✭✭WhiteWashMan


    why not just put a sticker on your chest with your name on it.
    would be much cheaper....

    besides, just because someone has met you, wont make you more popular.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,437 ✭✭✭Crucifix


    I don't think I'd like being approached on the street by random boards-folk. Those t-shirts would be like maniac lure.

    in your case, i would suggest that it may actually give people a worse opinon of you.
    but then people could just walk into a bar to get away from you i guess.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    No need to be offended.

    You said I said that was slightly off the whole idea what we were talking about, I then corrected you, and now you're trying to insult me.

    Just try and be a bit light. Dont be so uptight.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,239 ✭✭✭Gilgamesh


    Shrimp, here's an Idea for you.

    make yourself a nice Sig, buy the Boardsie T-Shirt, and print out an Iron-on thingy with you Sig on it.
    would help boards, would help you, and would help people to avoid you


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    I cant make a nice sig, ecksor has locked my sig... cant you see.

    I love the way so many ppl on boards have somethign against me, I dont see why, but it's funny how fully grown adults are so uptight, and childish. I myself, dont really hold anythign against anyone on this site. And i've taken some site off ppl here, but i just take it with a pinch of salt.

    Look at yourself, and see how your been so stupid, look at the bigger picture. You're getting so worked up about trivialities.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,967 ✭✭✭✭Sarky


    Bloody hippies.

    tbh, think you are the only one getting worked up here.

    but hey, 'The inactive Signature' would let everybody know who you are too :D

    Actually we make 1 dollar per t-shirt.

    I've added a women's t-shirt.

    Will add to the main page once I've added a few more products.

    anyway ask for badges to be sold if you want. :)

    And you could have your nick on it. Much smaller so stalkers can't see! ;) Ooh be really good for the next beers coz it was too hard to remember so many names and faces, and then people started throwing in their real names. :rolleyes:

    Yeah that got seriously f**king confusing. Sounds like a good idea to me.

    Ah well, next time.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,110 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    luckily mine are both one and the same.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,954 ✭✭✭✭Larianne


    Yeah there's that and THEN finding out the person you thought was a girl was actually a boy! hehe

    I didn't actually see Tar at the Boards beers but yeah, I too had assumed he was a girl... Can't think why. *Cough*Avatar *Cough* :D

    Only realised this in the revealing posts by some Boardsies the next day!

    hah! you did briefly meet me and oldyellar and dont know it! :)


    ya the avatar..thats better than some excuses 'tar.aldarion sounds female' and the best one'you have the writing style of a girl' lmao


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,391 ✭✭✭arbeitsscheuer


    hah! you did briefly meet me and oldyellar and dont know it! :)

    Really???
    God's Sake... NAMETAGS ppl, we need honest to goodness Nametags. Too much confusion and many lives needlessly lost. Er... Well, maybe not that last bit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,954 ✭✭✭✭Larianne


    See, badges are the way forward people!! Not so in your face but there!!!

    Tar, yours should say 'No, not a girl'. :D


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,110 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    or 'yes im a lesbian' :)


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


    I would also like to buy a Boards.ie T-Shirt. The current range is a bit limited though. I also wouldn't mind having a subtle indication of your posting name on it too. Not quite like KEANE on the back of a Man.U Shirt but something similar. I suppose a sticker could do the job short term.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,391 ✭✭✭arbeitsscheuer


    or 'yes im a lesbian'

    Yeah, cos ppl aren't confused enough as it is. Their heads would probably explode tryin to comprehend that one. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,954 ✭✭✭✭Larianne


    I'll be off out tmorrow to by a badge machine!! Be spitting out Hoff badges like no tomorrow! :D hehe oh Yeah and name badges! Ooh a cool thought... Making badges for regular peeps on the boards and then trying to find them at the Beers and giving it to them!! Well that's a good way of meeting (or scaring) people. Coz I didn't do much meeting at the recent one. :o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,391 ✭✭✭arbeitsscheuer


    Yeah me neither Larianne.

    And those that I DID get to meet I then promptly forgot, as Tar can testify.

    *Note to self: Simply must buy a camera before the next BoardsBeers...*


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,110 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    serves them right for not checkin out my name in my profile and shouting omg you're not a girl :P i will now reply 'yes i am how dare you..but yes i am a lesbian' :) and i agree kevin some indication would be cool.
