The Biggins has left the building...

    I was saddened and confused to happen upon Biggins very publicly advertised, non private and totally open for discussion blog that he will be taking a break from boards.ie for the immediate (and possibly foreseeable) future.

    In the blog he insinuates that something, or someone, has caused him to stay away from boards until the mods and admins "deal with the matter".

    I will quote the first paragraph and a link to the rest so as not to be sherlocked.
    I’m currently staying off boards.ie for a serious reason. A matter has being going on for some time but lately it (the problem) has intensified. I have repeatedly contacted some of the moderators there and to be fair. some are trying it appears to get to grips with the matter. Sadly however, the problem is still continuing with a select few involved.

    I express my concern and dismay that poor Biggins feels this course of action necessary and hope whatever the issue is, it is resolved soon.

    Is this the guy that starts every post with "I won't name names but I worked for famous people" or "I've seen things I can't mention" etc etc?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,487 ✭✭✭Mountjoy Mugger


    It now needs to be reported if someone doesn't visit a website.

    FFS, what's wrong with this world?

    Its kind of pointless referring to this "problem" without being able to mention what it actually is.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,470 ✭✭✭RedXIV


    Hope it all gets sorted out for him. Never nice losing a big time poster. Always feels a bit sad after forming an opinion thats locked onto a username.

    We'll be waiting for ya Biggins!

    Does this mean that I'll have to stop sending him PMs of myself naked?

    It is a classic ploy, to feign weakness to get your enemies to come out of the woodwork and show themselves...and when they do, the fork in the eyeball trick!

    I'll take them for you

    If anything he's going to need those naked pics even more to help him through these troubling times.

    Biggins in vague, cryptic, attention-seeking post shocker. Who'd have thought it?

    First Dudess and now Biggins. What is happening to AH?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,925 ✭✭✭✭anncoates


    People leave boards all the time.

    Why the need for a presidential type announcement.

    Because he's one of the most well known posters in AH.

    Nothing.

    Huzzah! I was right all along and Biggins was a spy. I wonder who blew his cover.

    I blame Frada. Anyone agree?

    He did post the blog and bring it to peoples attention...

    Seeing as Biggins isn't here to reply I think its a bit unfair discussing the issue. We'll leave at that for now.
