    somewhere in one of the threads , i did say i wasn't having a whack at ALL mods , and said that there are some good mods (too few ;) ) around , i realise , its probably a thankless unpaid necessaity -- probably best if i avoid AH for awhile --- if i'm let back

    its a shame you wont answer any questions though, preferring to deflect the answering of any real questions with your rantings about mod bullying and insults.

    i think you should avoid AH from now on. you dont add anything to it, and you dont like the place.

    as for your complaints that the place has gone to the dogs, well, its people like you as far as im concerned that give it that reputation.

    as for being an arrogant bully, this is a feedback forum, and im giving you feedback. you make stupid arguments, wont back them up and then refuse to even discuss it. as far as im concerned, youre pretty much getting out of this thread what you put into it.

    i said "you" are the bully, and thats based on past posts to other users, and your arrogant attitude to others , who are probably too frightened or whatever to stand up to you -- if you read my thread , i said that there were good mods , and that modding could be difficult -- funny no one defended you when i called you an arrogant bully, maybe the truth hurts -- now goodbye -- before i really say what i think of you

    No-one would dare. WWM is more than capable of defending himself. :)

    As I've said, work away. This is Feedback, so give your feedback. I'm sure you can express your feelings towards WWM in a way that doesn't make you just look angry.

    There's nothing wrong with AH, some threads are good some are bad.

    All in all, just don't bother reading things that you deem stupid.

    i kind of want to keep my account open , i realise him or your good self , could get me banned quite easily -- i'm a mere user -- who still wants to use boards -- and not goaded into a total banning

    I found that some of the stupider ones where actually really funny threads. The **** ones, I couldn't be arsed reading, but it was a slow day so I went in to it and it was class.

    I'm not goading you into anything.

    I won't ban you from here. WWM can't ban you from here. The only people who take action on this forum are administrators. I'm not one, and WWM is not one.

    I certainly won't ban you from the site for providing feedback. If I was going to do that, people would quite rightly be calling for my head.

    Surely after a year and a half on boards you should relise how hard it is to get site-banned.

    To get site banned you have to

    -be a spammer/shill/advertiser
    -be the worlds biggest d*ckhead in every single post to every single user you come across
    -insult one of the 4 admins, Cloud, Ecsor, Regi and Devore(I like him the best!)
    -Try to sexually entice either Tar_alderan(who is apparently quite hot), or Seamus(if you swing that way).

    I'm working on the latter.

    Quite true.
    I'll give it go though.
    I find his posts are quite often mistaken for bullying, when they are in fact extremely biting satire, which, I personally, find really amusing.

    If someone said to me in person 'Hey, AH is crap and you're over zealous', I'd be all like "Hey, fúck you, asshole." Then I'd take out my samurai sword and go medieval on their ass and then proceed to take out everyone within sight. Then I'd go and ban everyone from AH and show them how over zealous I can be. And then I'd jack off and fall on my sword just as I climaxed.

    Quality:D

    Just to stay on topic,

    AH Meh!

    2 things.

    i have never banned anyone who has personally abised me. i believe its their right to say whatever they want to me. after all, i tell people what i think of them. fair is fair. so im not really worried about what you say about me, and i am certainly not going to ' get' you banned. and yes i am arrogant, and the truth is far from painful.

    secondly, i see you are not even discussing AH anymore. you appear to be more interested in just having a row.
    and you still appear to be unable to get beyond yourinitial complaints that 'you think' AH sucks.


    no if you want to have an actual discussion on what you percieve as problems on the AH forum, youre talking to the one person who can actually make it happen.
    so, if you want to make your points, thn go for it. if you want to keep pissing and moaning, then stop wasting everyones time. empty vassels and all that....


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,995 ✭✭✭✭Cuddlesworth


    Could the "yer ma" discussions be stopped. Not the comments, thats going to keep happening for a while till the fad runs out. But more the conversations that go on in the middle of threads, normally posters having a slagging match. It's annoying having to read through them to get to the sterotype humour and fart jokes.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,295 ✭✭✭✭Duggy747


    Eh, am I wrong in saying that isn't Tar_alderan a guy? I don't want to know some of the fantasy thoughts some of you have been having when replying to him.

    There have been some............odd threads on AH, especially with the whole poo / **** / fainting girl on Dart ones but in fairness, I think the majority of those ones turned out to be the funniest in ages. Beats the usual ranting.

    I don't think Tar_alderan appreciates you spreading rumours about her being a man. A lot of women can get very upset over something like that.

    I've thrown in a little warning in one of the threads.
    If it continues, I'll issue a second one.
    Then the banning begins.

    i wasn't going to respond , but i'll do so unaggressivly --

    my initial post was just a comment , that hasn't gone down too well with the powers that be -- i did enjoy many of the threads in AH , and to be honest rarely use it now -- i find many of the topics now boring/immature - thats the content , and not the mods fault -- i think the idea of After Hours is good , one gripe i have is the fact that many half decent posts are moved on (for instance Dublin related issues) -- the reality is that probably half the population of Ireland live in the Dublin "metropolis" , so there will be many more Dublin related issues , that in my mind too easily get moved on -- but then who am but just a "boring" moaner

    the problem here is that your download to upload ratio is negative. The only way to inspire entertaining threads on AH is to create them yourself. Otherwise you're just whinging that you don't like what everyone else is talking about.

    so, youre actually saying that the problem is not with the forum, but your own personal gripes?

    Hey, I agree with you. But I'm laughing. I can't tell you why, and I'm definitely not laughing at you, but the AH mods know what I'm laughing about.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,914 ✭✭✭✭tbh


    I think this is the first boards in-joke that I'm actually in on! at least I think I am.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,995 ✭✭✭✭Cuddlesworth


    If you think but don't know, then you might just think you know what you don't think you know about.

    What were we talking about?

    Oh yea, the_bazz has so far.

    Complained about AH but offered no actual solutions.
    Taken offense to some light hearted comments and constructive critisim of his own posts.
    Ignored the topic and wasted time on trying to rebutt these comments
    Did a entire flip flop and just admitted he doesn't even post in AH any more.

    God I love feedback.

    Oh, it's definitely the one you are thinking of. First time I've been in on one myself.

    Anyway, back to the matter at hand.

    So what exactly is preventing you from reading or posting a thread after it is moved to another forum?

    That's because you are getting older. And that is a fact, I would give my life savings to anyone that can prove otherwise.
