    And?

    He doesn't like anyone, seriously why do you think he's called Sarky?
    Oh stop pretending like ye are soooooooooo special that he danes to not like just a certain bunch of you, no in the eyes of the glorious Dicatory all are dispised equally.

    Ah but Thaed - we are special and Sarky must ask himself does he deserve to be our Mod. You cant just come in and Mod a thread with a "i dont care if anyone likes me" online persona and expect to be taken seriously by a group of adults.It doesnt happen.

    One of the things that makes us special is that when a one of our group is unhappy the others will stand up for them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43,045 ✭✭✭✭Nevyn


    Yes you are all special snowflakes, so special you seem to think the site rules of no personal abuse doesn't apply and that mod instructions don't aplly either.

    Sarky was picked by the admins to be the mod of here, if ye don't like it then then I suggest ye take it up the line rahter then whinging.

    Oh and the I don't care if people like me works very well for some of use.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 44,501 ✭✭✭✭Deki


    I do have to say that if Sarky wasn't Sarky he'd never survive. There are some very strong and unique personalities here, and I would miss them if they went away. I'd miss Sarky though too (now don't everyone jump on me at once)Just think we could have a worse mod and actually sort of used to Sarky. I don't know what rules have been broken though.

    A charter is written widely enough to cater for most eventualities and when we discussed it with our Admin and others the concensus was that the nature of the forum was that moding was fairly loose-but not as far as Dr Bollocko in the Dome. The style of moding suits the dome.

    Where my view did change was when Colrow was leaving after Cicero and a whole lot of other regulars. So you post in a forum because of the other users.

    But telling someone to "get the fcuk etc or you will be banned" aint moding.That type of thing really does upset the buzz of a forum.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,647 ✭✭✭✭Fago!


    I agree with cdfm's last paragraph. Wtf was that about aye? Post better or I'll ban you?

    I dunno if he was serious or he was just being a nester and having a laff, either way it was odd and off putting.

    I'm a Sarky fan, but sometimes I think he can get a wee bit "Moddy" for the wrong reasons, if that makes sense......... No?.........









    awe :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,649 ✭✭✭✭CDfm


    There are times that even Mods need to apologise - and this is one of those.

    I think Sarky carries the online persona a bit far.

    No problem with a mod moding.

    Well think that was wrong. Also Col is fabulous (just read his last post:D)
    But if you're going to mod you can't exactly be "Pals" - at least not in the forum you're modding- you'd be eaten alive.

    Cmon deki - most regulars here are a nice bunch and are not going to eat anybody alive.

    YEAH IT DOES!!!
    For god sake, where is the fun gone!!!

    If sarky hands me a warning then he has his MOD hat on.
    If Sarky is posting in threads, well then he no different than you or me ........
    We are all grown-ups here, are we not, and that is the way of the world we are all different, i would have to say i dont find some of the stuff posted in here funny, and that goes for some of the stuff that Sarky posts, i dont feel the need to let that poster know that i dont find them funny ....... i just keep going in my own little world, but all whats going on now is a load of BULLSH1T. If someone is breaking the rules warn or ban them.
    All it is here now, is those that feel Sarky is not doing his job against those that feel he is, it's getting very BORING, and to be honest i think Sarky is enjoying it!!!

    I don't have an issue with Sarky's modding you do and you should use the system rather then starting killjoy threads, cos you have gone and upset joes girls.


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


    Where did CDfm upset deki???


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,647 ✭✭✭✭Fago!


    Just forget aboot it. He's fine. If ya don't like him, complain to the admins, not here.

    All this complaining will soon begin to alienate posters just like what happened in the Ladies Lounge. I have no problem with Sarky. The post he made the other day was odd but I'll let it slide.

    The thing with modding, and pretty much anything in the wurld, is that not everybody will like it. It's just the way it is. I don't think that just because some posters don't like him that he should be demodded.

    I think everyone here is nice -good people - good posters. Also think most don't fit into the same mold,. Have strong opinions, unique to them -resent being told what to do or think, (I think that's a good thing). It's just that blend keeps everything going. It would be easy to lose control, and hard to regain it.
    And perhaps I should shut up before I manage to offend anyone ,which is definitely not what I intended.:pac:

    I'm not alienated from there (I'm banned), the regular ladies are! They've stopped posting there because off all the complaining. And pretty soon that will happen here.

    First deki, now me .......is you getting confused thaedydal.

    Im only upset that this is going on, baseless lie is a funny thread and bar a few that come into it, there is no insulting going on, i think those that post in it are a good crowd, and would never use it to insult anyone, it's just a laugh!!!
    And to add to that i feel if anyone insulted me on there, the others would put a stop to it!!!

  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 18,377 Mod ✭✭✭✭Solitaire


    I wonder if anyone here knows how good they've got it? If anything Sarky is one of the best mods to have here - I fear none of us would get away with half of what we do at the moment if we had a "normal" moderator here.

    But seriously, how much of this is due to his randomness? Is all of this prompted by his disagreements with the Baseless Lie thread? I think a lot of it is, and like it or not many other mods would have taken it down by now. Its not the tCN regulars that are the problem, its trolls abusing the thread to launch personal attacks, soft-skinned newbs moaning about being bullied and random visitors just not getting it and block-marking half the thread, burying Sarky in angry e-mails :o

    And yeah, he does tend to thread-jack every so often when he's bored, but seriously guys and gals its tCN. Its supposed to be random! :rolleyes: The random ban threat was possibly a bit risque (even I did a double-take before running my usual sarcasm check on it) but I personally haven't seen him do anything to anyone. Bar the BL thread issues which are pretty understandable if you're a Mod and seem to have gone a long way to inspire this thread in the first place.

    I might be missing something that transpired between Sarky and our recent departed via PM or Feedback (you don't just leave a regular haunt for ever and never come back just because its going through a slow-ish patch!) but nothing I've seen here screams "SH/T MOD" - I've encountered just one of those before and let me tell you: you really don't forget that kind of experience. Ever.

    And speaking of not-random, this thread is so serious and inflammatory its making my head hurt. I come here to get away from this kind of thing - maybe its not Sarky thats wholly responsible for causing the migration away from here! :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,647 ✭✭✭✭Fago!


    Solitaire I agree with every word of that.

    except "The"....... That was taking things too far.

    Has anyone complained about being bullied in the BL Thread? If so they are muppets.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,649 ✭✭✭✭CDfm


    Solitaire - you are into building stuff like externsions - like how difficult would it be to have a sub-forum

    most people here wouldnt fit in in the Dome as its too no holds barred and we are a friendly bunch

    the best of families fight but they make up

    we should be able to do that here


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,967 ✭✭✭✭Sarky


    If you just want a clique of your own CDfm you can ask for a private forum.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,967 ✭✭✭✭Sarky


    Oh, and I'll be locking this thread too after my tea, so if anyone has any valid points to make, you might want to get a move on.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,647 ✭✭✭✭Fago!


    Yay the complaining stops.

    *Hugs*

    Oh by the way Sarky, I can safely assume you are 60 since you are about to "Have your TEA"!!!!!!!

    BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!


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


    I loves you Sarky!!!!
