What do you hate/like about boards.ie?

Fighting Irish

I hate when members complain that a certain thread should be in a certain forum or when people complain because a thread that someone makes was already made before.

This thread should be in Feedback and it's been done before anyway.

Shouldn't be in Feedback but has indeed been done before.

I hate you.

Seriously, I like the sense of community on boards. 'Tis the only message board which actually has one, in my experience.

Also, the way you can suddenly find out someone you;ve known for ages is on boards, or run into some stranger who it turns out you know from boardsie.

Like all forums boards has a very large number of muppets and I don't like muppetry.

I like the fact that I have made some brilliant mates here. I also find boards.ie users always willing to help and assist you in anyway they can, examples, fitness and PI.

Day-wanna-wonga

I hate the way Whitewashman closes threads just as they start getting fun, or just because he doesn't agree with a difference of OPINION to his own.

I also hate Atari Jaguar (not funny whatsoever)
and Pigman's 'talk in the 3rd person' gimmick. Lametard.

Agreed.

Fighting Irish, what would you suggest, one massive forum and label it "Everything"? There is a reason for the amount of different forums on boards, its because they don't all get swamped with the same thing all the time.

That's what I like about boards: the humour and the funny characters posting here.

I hate people who constantly complain about this site, yet who are still here...

But yeah, the fact that boards is geographically centred (pretty much) around Ireland makes is very cool.
Sitting at work and hearing someone go "hey look at this thread on boards, its fairly interesting.." about a thread you had just started. Thats pretty cool.

Or finding out that RL friends of yours posts on the boards too.

Most medium-heavy Irish internet users are either lurkers or posters on boards at this stage. Its the de facto.

i like the way bots can address people personally.

Karl Hungus

I hate those damn spongewidgets! Gets on my nerves! :mad:

Not something I particularly dislike but I have noticed certain alignments ie the same people seem to "shout down" a poster because their friend is doing the same without actually expressing an opinion

The acoustics are only shíte, but the lighting is fabulous.

I hate the smell but like the talent

I love the humour, there are some very witty people on boards. And the way people take time to think about others problems and post replies when someone asks for advice no matter how big or small the issue may seem.

on the flip side i hate the way some people post crap just to get a reaction and mock others yet have absolutely nothing constructive to say e.g. PI. - not witty :mad:

Damn rb, you beat me to it!

Exactly, and the muppets who come on and spam for a night. Suppose I like the fact that ther are so many people on here, mainly Irish, and there's a good sense of community as somebody pointed out.

i realise that but would you not agree that with the ammount of sub forums this place has that a lot of threads could be suited to a few different forums?

I also hate how most mods on boards never take bad critisism on board, if someone says anything bad about boards its not that they are trying to put the place down, its that they are trying to make people realise what things can be done to make things better

Correct, its up to the mod in question really. Whether or not they think its good for the particular forum or just going to cause trouble, it is hard to read the original posters mind as to what kind of view they want from the post (example: did someone really want posters from After Hours view on something serious because a fair few of posts here are not serious or meant to be taken that way) Then if its not moved someone complains, if it is moved, someone else complains so what can do. Live with it, ignore the user or mod, do whatever you have to do and move on, 'tis only the internet.

Hey, I remembered something else I hate on boards. People who don't know how to use the edit button!

The easiest way to do it is let the poster decide, if it is relevant to that forum leave it, the people who complain can put up with it

Eh, no. What then would the point of moderators be, if not to enforce the forum rules?
