    Can you not type without the big bold font? I am from Waterford, and have always been from Waterford. A thread not should turn into a big slagging festival of people, slagging their weight or watever. Slanderous hurtful comments posted here could be read by the people invovled, and such opinions should not be aired on a public forum for thousands to view. There is a line, and some posters stepped over the line with comments being made. There is a difference between not agreeing with posts and simply not liking the posts are they are offensive or slanderous to the party.

    Your not allowed make comments to other Boardsies, as its deemed personal abuse. On the soccer forum, you cant call Ronaldo a skinny piece of **** who cant run for his life and Liverpool a pack of kids who cant play football if their lives depended on it. Why the **** should After Hours enterain such comments towards members of the public if the above is not permitted?

    There is a limit to the ****e that should take place on this forum, and I think the limit has been pushed to far out.

    "PC" Posters eh. Have you got a sister or a female friend/cousin? Perhaps she has a public Bebo page where we can all slag her for being to fat to fit down a stairs or so skinny she will blow away in the wind (****ing parents, not feeding her the proper stuff!).

    Maybe shes stuck up, a common little tart or from the scummy parts of Dublin robbing cars since the age of 10?

    Alternatively, feel free to post up your own picture as clearly you must be a stunner with the perfect weight. Id love to have no faults, be the right size, super intelligent, not stuck up etc.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 195 ✭✭markk06


    What gives you the right to pick someone at random, post their bebo on here and slag them??

    If I came along and put up the bebo of a friend of the latvian girl or the dundalk traveller and started abusing her I'd be banned immediately.

    "look at the latvian b*tch, bla bla..." Don't think that would be tolerated. No matter what you think of them they are still people at the end of the day. No space for personal attacks no matter who the person is!

    Oh and to the person who started getting pedantic over a tribute to a dead friend of the friend of the girl on the show... Very big of you!

    i must have missed something here, i dont think anyone has any problem with the latvian girl or the travelling girl, they both seemed cool*, its the D4 girl alone who were making fun of and its not something irreversible like her looks, its her attitude thats getting a roasting!

    if her and her mates can go on live telly and say some bloke looks like a foot then long live this thread!!

    So IF i had a problem with the traveller girl would it be ok for me to post her bebo and say "look at the fat b*tch. her parents were probably related"*

    *not necessarily my personal opinion

    In all fairness the Bebo tribute thing is really weird. I don't buy into it at all myself.

    And while i understand where people are coming from i do find it suprising that all this is coming as a result of this show and i think the issue has more to do with the type of person being attacked.

    There has been all sorts of threads on AH about all sorts of people and there was never this kind of uproar in the past.

    So why now?

    People need to realise that you should have some personal responsibility as to what you post on the net, what you say on the television and the opinions and image your portray. No point in complaining about things after the fact and in fairness the attitude portrayed by that lass and her mates was less than stellar at times from what i can see.

    Not saying it is right or wrong to tear people down, i'm just saying that this chick set herself up for the fall and i'm honestly suprised people are reacting this way considering some of the things that have been bandied about when other people, area's, cities or religions and such have been discussed in a in similar manner in the past.

    what are you on about??

    if she's overweight theres little she can do about it, i wouldnt hold that against her but the D4 head along with the rest of her mates are incredibly immature! look at the way they act, they need a wake up call seriously, they can and should change their outlook on life to be a little more social.

    i wouldn't call a traveller a knack, they are different. a knack imo is someone of poor repuation and behavior, and i notice they fequent clubs i mentioned, and in my opinion are not people i'd like to socialise with, and i passed on this information to someone asking where to club.

    king stew if you want to try bash me or my repuation, go ahead, but they keep on topic...

    i'd call you a twat... but i'm a nice guy and wouldn't stoop that low

    Ok fair enough, but our point is that if you seen one of your "knacks" on TV youd bash em a bit on a thread like this,

    we seen a typical D4 head on TV who in our opinion has an awful attitude and im sure we couldnt bear to socialise with so were givin her a bit of a bashin!

    more like public insulting/humiliating/slander/degrading and references to personal appearence

    they are different. a knack imo is someone of poor repuation and behavior,

    So the person who is the focus of this thread could be called a knack by that definition.

    She certainly has a poor reputation judging by this thread because of her alleged poor behaviour. A knack you say.

    Interesting. <begins chin rubbing>

    she done that to herself by going on TV first!

    besides her mates said someone looked like a FOOT!! live on TV which is also "public insulting/humiliating/slander/degrading and references to personal appearence" so im sure they can take what they give!

    I watched this show the other night, not having seen the original, though I think most of the original was shown in the recaps.

    My initial thoughts were 'oh my God the 'D4' one is such a stereotype', but then I tried to look past the boasting and particularly her friends and I started to have a fair bit of sympathy for her. I think she seemed outrageous when put beside the other two girls, both of whom seemed genuinely excited about their debs for all the 'right' reasons.

    I was aware not many traveller girls make it to Leaving Cert. or ever get to go to a debs, so I knew what a big thing this would be for her and her family and unsurprisingly all the stops were pulled out for her dress and evening.

    The Latvian girl did not have anything similar to a debs in her culture and her night, like that of the traveller girl was loaded with connotations of being accepted and belonging and being like everyone else.

    All this made the Dublin girl stand out for all the wrong reasons. A lot of the nonsense she and her mates were spouting was typical of many teenagers, but there was a great deal of fancy editing went in to the programme and I think the end result was exactly what the makers intended.
