Boards.ie is a company name isn't it? Would he be allowed do that?

Even so I am surprised hes trying to start a discussion place when most people would just set up a spam shop as I'm sure a lot of people type boardsie instead of boards.ie a lot.

Kind of intresting that they are linking to your attachments on your site though.

I gotta say, I love his other website: http://www.****.com/
B-E-A-Utiful.

I think, from the two sites, he's proven himself to be a l337 web lord, and we should all just pack it in now before we get even more humiliated.

So is it safe to say that at some stage Mr <snip> managed to get himself banned, prompting a feedback thread complaining about oppression, human rights violations etc, and was told that if he didn't like it, to go start his own version of boards.ie. He probably just didn't realise he wasn't meant to take it that literally.

Then again, judging by **********.com, the less of his own inventivness he uses the better for all concerned.

If he didnt want his personal details on the net then he shouldnt have used them when setting up his domain. Those details are available to anyone in 4 easy steps

1) Enter domain into godaddy.com search
2) Click search
3) Click "more info on this domain"
4) Enter key

unless you feel like having your details splashed around the place?

Is that a threat or a question? Eitherway I don't mind. Work away WWM.

Its not personal, its a matter of public record. I don't know whether to laugh or cry at this muppet. We know him and banned him before. They arent the first to try and set something up (www.afterhours.ie as I recall). We've no problem with that. But there are fine lines between inspiration, slavish copying and impersonation.
