Fair City [News, Spoilers and Discussion v8] Read Post #1 Before Contributing

Still missing Oakley here

Would love if the case against him fell apart and was quashed due to a bias in the press, or a corruption of the chain of evidence, or some other legal technicality, leaving him free to walk free and wreck a more muted, though still menacing and mad brand of mayhem!

In my opinion, he was the best character in years, and so good at playing the psycho who wore the mask of sanity well...

Whilst it wouldn't be credable in any other soap, anything goes in FC, so who knows? He was/is far too good a character to lose, and it just might give us a break from seeing everyone - even the Guards - discuss confidential matters in Spar the whole time! :P

Hope this is not too off topic, but I've been here for a few months now, and I have to say I'm enjoying this thread.

Everyone here (apart from the odd troll who might drop by from time to time) is dead sound and doesn't take the soap too seriously.

It's nice to be part of something where you can disagree about whether or not you like a storyline/character, but not take the difference of opinion seriously, or fall out with the other person.

I think it should be an example to all other foums and how they should be moderated/run.

I've been a member of some forums where, although there were some decent people, the majority were absolutely hateful if you didn't agree with them and really abusive with it, and the moderaters and admins were next to useless. But I love it here, everyone is nice and
friendly - even if we do disagree over storylines or characters, it's like having a chat with a gang of mates.

So, thanks guys for cheering me up over the last few months, and before when I was only a lurker who just liked to read the posts. .

Your post really makes a lot of sense. I recently left a forum I really enjoyed over the horrific bullying of a certain poster. It was relentless. I agree fair city forum is great. Loads of different view points. But everyone respects each other's opinions.

Same problem... I was told to hang myself, told I wasn't relevant, called a c**t, for no reason other than making a harmless, non-offensive, jokey comment on a particular topic. It was basically like playground bullying on an adult level...

It's nice here though, everyone is welcoming, easygoing and a laugh, but in that other place the admins joined in, as did the moderaters too when it came to bullying people....

He uttered possibly the greatest line of all time, when he said
"Let's play a game called who wants to die"

Still chuckling away at that one.

Cathal Spillane would be Carol's type. Carol in the early days was attracted very much to men like him and worse than him. Think Billy and Sylvester and dodgy solicitor Anthony. When they changed her into a more posh character who was a mayor and had regular men like Louis and Christy as boyfriends, her character became less interesting. It is time to bring Carol back to her roots. Team her up with Cathal and bring her back into the world of gangland. Perhaps reintroduce the likes of Anthony, Sylvester and Mick too.

Yeah had actually been thinking myself that a hook up between Spillane and Carol could be good. They should show Spillane as the Mr.Big of drugs in Carrigstown and he then recruits Carol to transport drugs all over Dublin using the taxis in her company. Of course by this stage Wayne will finally have rebuilt the garage and he is servicing the taxis and Wayne of course finds a kilo of cocaine and decides to recruit Emmet to start selling it to the school children of Carrigstown.....by which time Benjimim comes back and Emmet quickly gets him addicted to cocaine. Jane is not impressed but likes a sniff herself as does Robbie. In fact the whole of the Station turn into coke heads whereas everyone over in McCoys in setting up a vigilante group to take down Splianne. Batty Nora and Charlie Kelly are leading the vigilante group. Thng is nothing will happen because Spillane has dirt on Deegan that will end his career. So Deegan gets outed as a corrupt cop who is in the pay of Spillane. And on it goes...

None of the above will happen of course, but it would be nice=)

I tried responding to your post, but the spolier thing won't work for me

Ms, I used to have the same trouble, then someone on here told me -
If using your phone, simply tap or double tap the spoiler. If on a computer / tablet, put the cursor at the beginning of the spoiler and swipe right .

Well said! I echo what you feel about 99% of the members here, there really is a good vibe here, its banter and playful but people can have interesting debates without getting sore or go into a childish huff. The mods are very friendly here, massive difference across threads.

As I said, 99% of people here are good fun. That MsWesterosi is a complete blinkered fool but you cant win them all.
