Famous Irish People Posting on Boards

    Do you ever read posts on boards in the voices of certain famous Irish people? I've noticed I sometimes read certain people's posts in the voice of Vincent Browne, for example. You know the type. A bit crabby but with a certain intelligence and incisiveness, and a few standard hand-wavey, dismissive phrases stuck in here and there. He seems to have several alt accounts, too. :pac:

    I think it was later proven to be an impersonator.

    Many posts on here carry the voice of jedward too.

    Any posts that are pointing out how 'ah isn't the 'dublin city' forum y'know' I read those in a carlow accent for some reason.

    He did post here. He had a special confirmed account and everything like the commercial rep accounts.

    My cousin was most pleased.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,593 ✭✭✭Sea Sharp


    He did and got banned.
    it was a big conspiricy


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,783 ✭✭✭Hank_Jones


    I hear the Hank Jones posts on here quite regularly.

    He's quite famous, for all the wrong reasons of course.

    Nobody's perfect...

    Kim Jong-il posts here regularly; he has a very clever username.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 685 ✭✭✭Carlos_Ray


    I won't say what username he uses, but I know for a fact that Declan Buckley (telly bingo) is a boards regular. All I am willing to say is that he has over a thousand posts ( that should narrow it down.....not)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 36,031 ✭✭✭✭The_Kew_Tour

    Two of your biggest fans post and praise you here all the time.

    Dagsy and WalshB will be over the moon with this news. They are literally going to cream their pants... :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,626 ✭✭✭✭My name is URL


    Don't name names! If what you're saying is true then whenever someone takes the piss of them again it could be construed as personal abuse.. maybe that's why it's against the rules to speculate on the identity of users =p
