Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    But Thaed - the site rules also apply to the Dome and admin allow that to continue.

    And our Admin had no probs with Baseless lie being reinstated here from the Dome.

    and the rules are interpreted with reference to the forum and its culture and practice.

    not by people who want a forum to be like it was in 2005 and want to prune it back to that- thats a totally different agenda.

    A warning added to the very first post of the thread.
    From now on there will be no personal abuse. There will be no abuse of the tags. There most certainly will be no complaining about this warning, which is the last I will ever make on this thread. You had three warnings previous to this. THREE. And they were ignored. If this one is ignored by anyone, this thread gets locked and it will not be coming back.

    Some forums keep the original post at the top of every page
    This is a useful guild to keep the thread on Topic.

    To a point.

    Which site rule? the one about posting in the right place, insults and gross bawdy behaviour are for the 'Dome. Is it that some people are too delicate for the 'Dome and want to play those games here instead?

    You are go good at reading only what you want.
    Sarky has never said he wants it to be 2005 nor have I, I did say I started posting here in 2005.

    I'm not surprise in the baseless lie became an insulting thread that offended people.

    But I can't recall being offended by CDfm who seemed to be a regular on that thread.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,448 ✭✭✭✭joes girls


    Sarky has said that he is trying to bring the nest back to what it once was!!!!
    but i think it's doing ok as it is ......

    Maybe but the Dome crosses lots of lines and you wouldnt call it girl friendly.

    But what you have said is you want to change a posting style and culture that has evolved over time.

    So if the direction of the forum is being changed then open it for discussion. We are not mindreaders here - except for Matt who is reincarnated from some Buddha or other.

    CDfm, it might surprise you to know that I don't really mind your egotistical holier-than-thou attitude. I'm not terribly concerned about the personal abuse you posted either (although I dare say most other moderators would have banned you for it). I even find amusing the posts here and there where you were fighting for the baseless lie thread to be moved back for the poor defenceless women (very gallant, by the way, I'm sure everyone with breasts will start flirting with you now, you big internet stud you).

    But don't lie. I've gotten several complaints about that thread, I've made several warnings ON that thread, and let's not forget how you agreed in Help Desk that everyone would be happy for me to have the thread brought back and reopened as long as those warnings (which are completely unmissable) were heeded. Remember how you agreed to that? When we communicated about the issue you felt you had? Never mind you didn't actually come to me about it in the first place like you were supposed to, anyone who doesn't bother reading the rules of the site would make THAT mistake. Oh, and remember how you stated people had been banned over it when that was in fact a complete fabrication on your part?

    Continue whining and insulting me all you like, I'm a big boy and I can take anything you could possibly try to fling my way (internet persona, lol). But if you keep presenting false statements as fact, my patience WILL run out. I've given you and the one or two others like you a lot of leeway in the past for things that would have earned you a ban on almost any other forum. I've really had enough of that.


    This thread is over., get back to being silly everyone. If anyone has an issue about TCN they can PM me. Remember to read the charter first, because half the whining in here doesn't seem to take a word of the charter into account.
