It seems to me like we have a few people who love nothing more than a good old fashioned verbal scrap.Pighead has often licked his lips with anticipation as one of the heavyweight arguers of boards.ie marches into a thread demanded to know what the fcuk the Original Poster is talking about.

Lets put it too the vote.

Here are Pigheads contenders:

1. Mr Nice Guy- Now many of you will be surprised by this nomination but he can be seen to get quite a mood on when it suits him. It's normally under the 'I can't believe how heartless you're being lads,show some respect please.Won't somebody please think of the families" type argument.

2. Morning Star - Intelligent, articulate and posts a lot. But don't you just want to drag him round the back of the school bike shed and kick the crap out of him? Get's his nose in every thread where theres even the hint of an argument. He also never admits he is wrong.

SAMPLE QUOTE
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=3044517&postcount=44

3. WhiteWashMan - An absolute collosous of a man who is 6 foot 4 and enters strong man competitions. This man could start an argument in an empty room.No quarters asked for,no quarters given.Often starts arguments before proceeding to lose interest half way through.

SAMPLE QUOTE
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=3545968&postcount=113

4. nesf - A mad man from the West.Claims to know everything about everything.Has often reduced opponents to tears or pathetic comebacks like "No you don't know what you're talking about".Gets agitated very easily and hates 94% of posters.

SAMPLE QUOTE
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=3532277&postcount=18

5. Rozie - A bit of a new kid on the block.Absolutely fearless in her arguing.Her attitude seems to be the bigger they are the harder they fall.Jury still out though,has only fought the one epic battle.

SAMPLE QUOTE
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=3485783&postcount=108

After much soul searching and thread trawling Pighead has plumped for Morning Star.The lad argued his heart out all year round and although he was rarely right he kept on arguing til the bitter end.Well done pal.

I'd say "opinionated" rather than argumentative for most of the users cited.

I wholeheartedly refute that accusation.

I consider that a personal attack. Shame on you.

Unless you can provide evidence of me saying "think of the families" your comments will be greeted by me with disdain.

I've always thought of WWM as swooping in from on high to opine, rather than degrade himself to the base level of argument.

If it is "most argumentative" as opposed to "best arguments" should NetWhizKid get a mention? His arguments rarely have the slightest relevance to the point being discussed, but he is not shy about sharing and defending his opinions. His vivid imagination is his greatest weapon.

Shouldnt the Amp equation be in here?

Have to say though Mr nice guy from boards survivors(where we first met*flutters eyelashes*),always puts forward a good arguement.

WWM from what I have read in his past posts, can be very knowledgeable and the "why didnt I think of that" factor comes to mind.

Well I voted!, I'm not saying who though.

Be fair on Mr Nice Guy, it's not as if he's actually argumentative in a vendictive way, it's more like he's argumentative in a "can you appreciate the other side of the argument on a human level" like a... nice guy.

Damn, wish I was on the list!. I have to get better known on Boards, I argue with people the whole time, I've just been too small time!

5. Rozie - has only fought the one epic battle.

Are you mad - everything becomes an epic battle with her - she wins hands down.

WWM - Definately not arguementative. He's (very) harsh but fair in his comments usually. And does us all a service with his muppet slapping. Usually has a unique way of looking at things that makes you think..now why didnt I think of that.

Nesf - normal poster tbh - I must have missed the arguementative ones - if any.

Mr Nice Guy can get a tad excited sometimes alright.

****!, I completely forgot about him!, he would have got my vote if he was on the list!. The kid argues for arguings sake, going out of the way to belittle your opinion in a nonsensical manner.

I agree with Tar, haven't seen anyone on the list apart from Rozie be real argumentative.

Tbh, Mr. Nice Guy doesn't tend to start arguments, he gets argued with alot and just argues his points of view and fights his corner. He's more 'the most argued with' that 'the most argumentitive'
