    This has probably been said already, but i HATE it when boardsies think that everyone is from dublin...especially in AH. Threads like "where to head in town tonight?" or something about the toll bridge on the N fcuking whatever...or "did anyone see what happened on {insert street name in dublin} last night?

    Bugs me..
    Fcuking dubs..think ye own boards...

    The inexplicable cult of personality around a handful posters

    Some of the frankly bitter nerds

    Stuff designed to alienate new users like in-jokes, ganging up and the like.

    Culchies moaning about Dublin threads.

    Small gripes though: I <3 boards.

    Dubs who think that people who are not from dublin are automatically "culchies"...

    Three things

    Firstly: Dublin. - Not boards fault per say, but fuckkit, the place is a rancid mess.

    and seriously

    The no personal abuse rule: If you can't take some random guy on the internet calling you an idiot because after your last 12 posts it's clear you are indeed a blithering fucking retard, then you shouldn't be on the internet. Get out and come back when you can take criticism.

    and also Moderators and posters inability to read whats infront of them. If i say "this is the stupidest thing i've ever read" that does not mean that i'm saying you are an idiot. Plenty of smart people say stupid things. Learn to read what's there not what you want to be there.

    I hate that too. Plenty of Dubliners are forced to live outside the capital these days. Not their fault.

    Femmy posted what I was about to.

    Also, people who sign off their posts. Why?

    People in the Cork City forum who start threads ending with ......In Cork? You are posting ina Cork forum, and you are asking a question, why specify?

    The utter over moderation of the soccer forum. You can't insult an opposition player without a ban.

    Far too many 'wacky' forums

    Arts. Talk about pretentious.

    Jesus, I dislike alot about here :)

    Don't mind culchies in general, it's just the Cork ones we could do without. Maybe the People's Republic can have their own site. Boards.pr or something.

    It was not a bite, it was a yawn at a poor effort at winding up.

    There's another think I don't like - uptight posters.

    Learn to have a bit or craic, it won't kill you.

    People from outside the Pale :p

    People who take things too seriously, you know those cunts that go and make a big feedback thread over fuk all. Like an infraction they clearly deserved or they don't like the colour of some board's skin(JESUS JUST DONT USE IT THEN). Shit like that.

    I hate how there is always someone who is going to defend some outrageous subject matter. Ie - Pedo's , murderers, etc. There is ALWAYS one!

    Oh and the ban on talking about that which shall not be named.
    I support the ban and think it should be extended to the other major player in the market which that which cannot be named is in, as they are both cnuts(OK maybe the ones we can name aren't as bad but still...).

    I don't think I hate anything about Boards, it is an information source sometimes, other times a time killer, it's just the internet get over it.
