A Moment of Mourning for Mr Shabby

All those who feel Boards and particularly the Cork forum will be a lesser place to frequent without his particular tone of obnoxious humour, post your condolences here.

It should be noted that adam was a fine poster in all his 2 incarnations, bringing a piquant brand of obnoxious humour to the mix. (Although according to recent experimental data acquired While In The Pub, adam's Obnoxiousness Field has been weakened and is going the way of a red dwarf sun. Fans of obnoxiousness need not panic, as universal balance has apparently been restored by my Obnoxiousness Field going supernova.)

He will be missed. Until he either registers under a new account, or our aim improves significantly.

(Yeah, ok, I'm bored...)

Never met the guy but speaks his mind and i like that. Think he should just learn to bite the tongue just a small bit when it comes to ecksor he'd have had no worries. He'll be back!

That wouldn't make any difference - his posting style is very distinctive.

The sooner he's back the better. Too much fanboy admin worship is bad for the soul.

The "adam" at the end of every post tends to give him away. This place with all it's rules ceased to be any fun a long time ago.

He was never the most subtle poster, really. Hopefully he'll pull his next Jesus impersonation soon

Thanks for that JohnK. Looks like he should have kept his head down.

Well, yeah, probably. But then he wouldn't be the adam we know and love, would he?

I love the way Ken Shabby 2 emerged when he was in his death throes

I didn't need to keep my head down, the rest of the admins knew who I was, in fact DeVore followed through on a request to remove my IM handles from my old account a few months ago.

Jerry banned me because he thought I was being critical of his precious baby - I wasn't, I was simply feeding back - and because of the tame/lame comment in post #5, period. I don't blame him though, he obviously has a major self-esteem problem, which probably isn't entirely his fault.

Like I said the last time this happened, when I'm banned for a legitimate reason, I'll go quietly. In the meantime, trying to ban someone with a dynamic IP is about as clever as trying to nail jelly to the ceiling.

See you around in my new identity. When they find that...

./brdsreg -u USERNAME -e EMAIL [-p PASSWORD]

(Enable captchas Jerry. You're supposed to be a security guy, secure.)

In other words, he came back in while I was ill and nobody thought to reban him.

If any curious Mods want a link to the original thread on the Mod forum that dealt with this issue than let me know.

Reading the thread, I don't think he said anything particularly ban-worthy. Until his Second Coming as Ken Shabby 2, that is. And that Ken Shabby 3 is a cheeky chap.
Maybe a whole legion of consecutively-numbered Shabby replicants is spawning...

I heard there's an american TV company thinking about making a syndicated show around adam's message board antics called (wait for it) the Six Million User-account Man....
