    Ist-IB (or any other crowd) nothing to stop you creating a thread with your server and bumping it up with comments until it got added to the sticky. its not as though there are many new threads on here each day.

    There is, it would get locked it against the rules. And it seems its against the rules more for some than others. witch was one of my points.


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


    well i think you posting should be against the rules but like you don't see me starting a thread and getting all my lil m8's to post on it. :rolleyes:

    And spoky FYI the majority of the posts here have been in support of the status quo, not keeping you happy, its infact the opposite.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 178 ✭✭MrShadow


    where in the charter rules does it say you cant put up a post with a server address?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 178 ✭✭MrShadow


    Strange thing is 1st-IB started off as a call of duty clan and on the call of duty forum there is 1 mod (other than amp) and no sign of any bitchin going on about wanting to have mods for each clan.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,042 ✭✭✭spooky donkey


    nothing happens there. And when I made requests of the moderator to do something he either did it or game me a reason why not. But I wanent ignored and that was only one guy.

    As a non-unionised part time bf2 player, regular reader and a bit less regular poster on this forum the words "storm in a teacup" spring to mind about this whole moderator debacle. Fact of the matter is that if there are more than 1 team\clan\ideology\sect\etc involved in anything someone from one side is going to occasionally bitch and moan about the other side but on this forum i haven’t seen anything that i'd remotely describe as evidence of blatant favouritism towards one clan or another. To me its all seemed like healthy slagging and banter up to this point.

    Listen most replies on here seem to go with the view that things are fine as they are. This inter clan sniping is crap and boring etc etc etc.

    Lets have a bit of fun and get all the clans together and have a little competition of sorts, so that we can clear the air and move on.

    I for one think that would be a bit of fun, along with the in game shennagins that goes on.

    Yeah all is fine here as i've said already. Maybe time to lock it up? Spooky you've been added to the sticky now which was your original aim, So lets just move on and leave it as it is.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,346 ✭✭✭✭KdjaCL


    :confused:


    So the point of this thread was about the server not being added after 3 days? When BTC had to wait 3 weeks. Is there something else i missed Spooky you refer to some thread that was locked and another that wasnt.

    You also fail to nominate anyone who you feel could moderate the forum better, imo only Ponster would be suitable should any moderator resign. As he has fixed probably everyones BF at some stage posted news and mods and fixes for the games and took a Boards.ie team into the Inf league and generally helped the boards.ie players play. Which is something you seem to neglect this forum isnt for 1stIB of TIG its for boards.ie members

    Have any of 1st IB/BTC/TIG/GFF/NRG/ASCI ever had a member who posted as much as Ponster or myself in the above respect, if so nominate them for mods. Offthe top ofmy head i can only think of 2 possible clan players who post here with unbiased opinions, both having joined clans after the forum was created.

    Eh no one cares about keeping you happy. Winters/kdjac lockage?


    So while everyone else comes in a posts trying to sort this out as or atleast be helpful , you come in with that ?

    Both clanmembers and non clanmembers have come on here with suggestions and opinions , how does this effect you so much that you decided it should be locked ?

    I suggested it should be locked as obviously nothing more constructive was going to come of it. Heck nothing good as come from this thread at all apart from confirm several people's view of SpookyD, but thats a whole other topic.Threads within boards are no place to suggest any moderator change as is well known, this should have been in feedback if it was to be taken anyway seriously, anything else is just asking for abuse.

    Yeah I agree Ponster was the first one to come to mind also as he just helped me out this morning on something and he is the one., and as far as I know he was not in any clan so he would also be top of my list.

    On the point of the sticky it was not a 3 day wait, it was 3 days from my request but 3 weeks since our clan leaders request.

    The other issues I raised was a " we are recruting thread " we did one had it locked very sharpish and TIG did one and it took 6 days or so to lock.

    I will even admit that these could have been over sights and that im not 100% sure that we were being excluded. But that is what this thread was started for to find out, not to get added to a sticky and to also see if other clans were in the same boat. It seems that there have been little if any other examples of other clans being left out in the cold, but then like I said this was something I also wanted to find out.

    I still say Ponster for the job as he is the most helofull and fair minded person in here and dont join a clan Dude :P

    My dear sweet jesus, will ye listen to yourselves. It's a public forum for the battlefield series. Who cares who the hell moderates it.

    Instead of a forum for players to meet, discuss the game and get some games going, we have inter-clan bitching and chest puffing.

    Lock the thread and lets move on to actually having some decent games together lads.

    :salute:

    As far as I am concerned any clan can recruit here within reason ie not 15 threads a week. All the other clans know this yet yours does not. I dont remember that thread but i do rememebr NRG posting they were recruiting Winters locking it and i unlocked or told them to post again.

    lol @ pic

    anyway, this has probably been one of the most entertaining threads to date - what we need now is a new boards.ie inf league where we can use all this pent up aggression to virtually anniliate eachother on the battlefields of bf2.

    Yeah it would be interesting to see how the inf league would play out with the new patch? Are clans and boardsies interested at all? I'll organise if the need is there. However with tighter rules as it all fell away last time.

    Very entertaining thread lads !!:D
    I have even grinned through pain reading this as i have a bad dose of the Johnny Giles ,even just typing this is like sitting on a frying pan.
    But other than my bum grapes .Lads its only a game.Enjoy & have fun ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,285 ✭✭✭TheHairyFairy


    Well if it was to be a goer then it would be 1 team per clan. Each clan could nominate say 10/12 players and can only select a team from that group.

    Again we could do sunday nights, maybe have shorter rounds of 15 mins and 150 tickets. Should run smoother then.

    Fairy


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47 molc


    Just an idea.

    Lets actually make it a boards.ie leaque and draw players and teams from a hat ors. Forget about the clans and just be a bunch of lads playing together.

    Or even scratch that and just organise a once off night of competitions in that format. Could throw up some TS channels somewhere I'm sure...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,285 ✭✭✭TheHairyFairy


    Aye good idea Molc, anything for a laugh.
