    ok,
    i just got banned from the foums forum for apparently "trolling"
    all i did was make my point and i got no warning about banning,
    i thought there was a whole do-up of boards where the mods where gonna be watched and not do stupid sh*t like this.
    Stuff like that makes me not want to look at these boards,let alone post
    </rant>

  • Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 21,503 Mod ✭✭✭✭Agent Smith

  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 10,501 Mod ✭✭✭✭ecksor


    Even if that's true it begs the same question.

    I watch over GOD. I'm just down here cos I was bored. I'll go back upstairs in 100 or so years, to do a check-up. And if you think 100 years is a long time, you should've been around when Jesus was around. Now that was boring!

    Also, where did you hear about the mods being watched? Most of them do a wonderful job. And the select few who doen't, have their reasons. They have real jobs, ya know. They don't just sit online waiting for someone to step across the line (well, except for...).


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 10,501 Mod ✭✭✭✭ecksor


    We don't need an ombudsman. I told you that I was likely to ban you at least an hour before I actually did. Those posts have edit buttons you know.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,698 ✭✭✭garthv


    then why did u ban me?
    for making my opinion?
    ffs

    I think what you need to do is start a thread listing off all the people would make a good ombudsman and let people vote in a poll.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,698 ✭✭✭garthv


    Well a proper ombudsman would be someone with no affiliation with boards.ie,who cant post and can only monitor mod activitiy obviously.....


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 10,501 Mod ✭✭✭✭ecksor


    Where did I imply any differently?


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,698 ✭✭✭garthv


    you still havent answered my question

  • Registered Users Posts: 4,698 ✭✭✭garthv

    Posts like this make me not want to look at these boards. Hopefully someday morons like you might get it into their tiny brain that you are not entitled to a warning. In fact, you're not entitled to anything other than my contempt, which I give you freely.

    Also I find it disturbing that I keep wanting to give ecksor positive rep these days. Am I becoming more of a nazi or is he getting funnier? Answers on a piece of dried of flem to Garth_V.

    so someone who has nothing to do with the site, is aparently going to tell the people who own, run and pay for the site what to do.

    i can see that happening you ****wit.
