Poker is one of my most visited forums, although I rarely post!

Paranormal is the biggest load of BS I've seen on the internet, let alone on boards. "I'm using positive mental awareness to help find madeleine"... stfu!:rolleyes:

Also, celebrity and showbiz... It's pretty much a gossip forum about 'celebs' and it's an insult that it falls under 'Arts':mad:

Mr.Plough

why all the hate for the poker forum?

one of the highest content forums on boards.


compare it to the mustard forum or "legends of the boards"

MikeHoncho

I dont hate any forums. Different strokes for different folks. But the most pointless is the weather forum - bunch of people talkin bout the same crap we all talk about all the time in real life anyway.

thelordofcheese

I don't hate any forums, but i find some of the sci-fi ones to be quiet trying at times, especially people who have a nigh on infinite capacity to bitch and moan about the slightest thing.

Biggest offenders being BSG and the Doctor who one (under 'Hosted').

Peter Collins

Poker for me too.

To talk so much about a bloody card game

I thought the texas hold'em bullsh1t poker fad of 2005-06 was well and truly dead, but there are obviously folk out there who still think it's "cool"

Zzzzzzzzzz............

Also any thread where "Pighead" has posted in the third person....reading that is the equivalent of putting a fork between your front teeth and wrenching them out.

Its a toss-up between paranormal, celebs & showbiz, and big brother.

TheFlaps

The poker forum for one. The fact that it has so many posts about pointless random hands. Why not just have a lotto forum and we could all discuss our numbers from the night before.

Heisenberg.

This post has been deleted.

Jimoslimos

In no particular order;

Soaps
Big brother
Celebs
Paranormal

Trying to think of the most outrageous and offensive insult to post in these places so that in the resulting stampede to report/ban me boards crashes.;)

Have you ever seen how heated the discussion in there gets?

Tar.Aldarion

Aye, always some arguments brewing.

For me it has to be:

Big Brother
Celebrity & Showbiz
Soaps
Fashion & Appearance

jester77

I wouldn't say hate but there are a few that are very sad and pathetic, Big Brother being the main one, followed by Soaps & the Celeb. Sad and pathetic because peoples lives must be so boring and mundane that they end up watching other peoples lives instead of doing something with their own.

Most disappointing has to be models, they really have to rename that forum and not be misleading people.

Wouldn't say I hate them but I think the following lower the tone of the site in general:

Soaps
Big brother
Celebrity & Showbiz (under Arts? wtf? - where's the Art in being famous?)
Paranormal
Legends of the Boards
Mustard
David Hasselhof
Chuck Norris
Teach na nGealt

I have never even heard of some of these forums that are being discussed. I have probably only ever been in about 30 of the forums that are on boards, and regularly visit maybe 6 or 7, and periodically visit another 10 maybe.

If I don't like or see a need for one I won't go there. Live and let live people.

Who are those people? Tell me so I can ban them.

I hate Commuting and Transport. It's full of keyboard warriors who are full of criticism of anyone who actually does things without every getting off their backsides themselves. Not to mention the trainspotters and those who want to build a tunnel to the moon as well as loonies who only pop up to support some political party or politician for a few weeks and them vanish.

Bald heads and bear guts.( or whatever its called)

They have acknowledged there evolutionary purpose is finished so pass their time growing their beer gut and posting about it.

I really can't think of anything more worthy of pity..

Ah here now, that's totally uncalled for and we demand a retraction or we'll be around to thump you. Well we'll at least give it some thought anyway while we're on the couch waiting for the wimmins to bring us more beer.

BGRH, the thunderdome, and tCN are great for a bit of lurking.

Lurk no more humbert, join the Brotherhood, we're a friendly lot. Well unless you're skinny, have masses of hair or don't like beer, but they're all pretty valid reasons for not liking someone IMO.

Indeed ! It has been proven by scienticians that beer makes other people more interesting !

That'll do, Pig. That'll do.

It's a long time since the glory days of tCN, or the 'dome for that matter.

Both are now almost equally pointless, the only saving grace of the 'dome being that we mods can shove errant threads (ergo posters) in there for the denizens to tear to shreds.

They do a damn good job too.

/salutes Degser and the crew.

We're not allowed move anything to tCN anymore though. AH mods are now issued with asbestos underwear to go with the coke n' hookers as a result of that policy falling flat.

"OMG I posteded a full stop!! Itz my fave alfanoomeric character-after Johnny Five!!!:""$£!!"

"AH threads are ruining the Nest."

Yeah. Right.

Oh yeah, what's wrong with Poker?

QFT. I clicked on that expecting pictures of babes and was shocked to the core by what I found. Every so often I forget and click once more, only to be disappointed all over again. :mad: Crucify them!

Anyone know how to go about getting into that Slydice Specials forum instead?

I dislike the dome in principle but admit to having a chuckle when a 'serious' thread (like sinn fein transport policy) is moved there and the unwitting posters receive both barrels for the first post of two.

I merely thought about saying I hate the Chuck Norris forum when I got a roundhouse kick to the face that came out of nowhere! :eek:

So I'd just like to say that I do not hate the Chuck Norris forum and that Chuck Norris is indeed a lovely man!

/Phew, he's gone!

I hate the poker forum (it's so bloody inclusive and repetitive - rate my hand thread no 52134)

I hate the Mobile Phone forum (every thread is either people bashing 3, bashing the iPhone or going on about the n95)

I hate the Christianity forum & atheists forums (just take it outside lads)

I hate all those forums that people mod but i can't get into :mad: Why not i ask?

I hate the soccer forum

I hate all those forums that are inactive, delete them already!

I hate the showbiz forum, who cares?

I hate Construction & Self Building & Architecture & Planning cos it's name is too long and messes up the main page

I hate all the TV show specific forums, cos I can't go in there because people see nothing wrong with watching tv shows from the US and then spoiling it for everybody else... Thread titles like: "When the main guy died (spoilers)" - oh ya, thats helpful you just ruined it you knob...

I probably hate a lot more, i'll get back to ya...
