    I loved reading Permabear's drivel.

    There's only a few dozen poster on the site, we need to have multiple accounts to keep things ticking over.

    Permabear had me fooled for quite a while - I did find his marital and family situation very far-fetched but was prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt - but then I noticed how many of his posts seemed to contradict others of his in other threads and smelled a rat.

    Why he felt the need to create a fantasy life online would have the psychologists busy for months.

    I just had a look at his profile, almost completely deleted.

    Any posts that remain say "this post is deleted"

    Didn't know you could do that.

    Absolute fruit cake!

    The alter ego, the regular poster had me fooled for a while. Seemed like a nice enough chap.

    Then he started creating a whole boatload of accounts. Sad really, each one more attention seeking than the last.

    He fought a long battle to get them all deleted. It's a shame.

    Smash broke my heart when he left.

    The little b1tch.

    I can't really remember posters. Its all like one big poster. I get them mixed up.

    Pretty much this, some names might stick in the mind, but there's no way I'd recognise a re-reg by their posts, even that 'whats the etiquette here' thread, I'd only presume one is a previously prolific poster, but I couldn't tell which...

    Well, if it were an honest MISTAKE, surely they woukd not ban you.

    Unless, they think you are deliberately making every thread ABOUT YOU and creating SPAM.

    May I say something the new me.

    You taking pleasure in someone getting banned etc. Its not really making you seem like a nice person.

    I was told if i got mod action in three months they would ban me.

    I previously would make an account then close it and make a new one. Boards didn't like it.I kept doing it because someone was sending me scary messages on here though. (like ten messages in one day when i didn't respond )



    So they said if i had mod action in three months they would ban me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,160 ✭✭✭✭anewme


    Well maybe in a few months time, you can look at this thread and see if you are one of the posters people want back?

    Im sure there will be other places to get it even after people get banned.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,275 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    Don't think I ever had perticular users on here I really clicked with or anything like that! Would be more a case of certain usernames pop up I'm more familiar with that come across less irritating then others ha!

    I spent a lot of time on Yahoo Messenger when was younger met loads off there. The voice and video features where more my thing. I disconnect a bit in constant text. Can't get my point across the same way!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,627 ✭✭✭Woke Hogan


    This is exactly why I don't bother my arse to learn anyone else's usernames. It always descends into people sniping at each other because they think they're internet celebrities who need to get one over one another.

    You should have an option to remove the ability to read other people's handles.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,239 ✭✭✭✭ILoveYourVibes

    No but you should have gotten a warning.

    Well i don't think you should have personally but them's the rules.

    But mods interpret them from personal perspective of course they are human.

    Or maybe people should have the ability to hide them from all but mods to be honest it would stop a lot of bullying.

    Anywaayyyy....
    Didn't realise Ginandtonicksy was gone!?

    Zorya. She seems to have disappeared. Well able to hold her own, not easily cowed and very, very funny. The mark of a good poster, for me at least, is someone you often dont always agree with, can engage in a bit of debate with yet still look forward to their posts. Zorya was all of this. Where are you, girl.?

    Why would you want to? Half the people here are racists or people who lose their **** over the tiniest thing.
