    Prod check my thread in after hours you will likey
    Hmmm, so according to your last formula, LCS, and taking a 15 year old lad ... ?! :p

    On the internet nobody has a face. That would mean acknowledging that you are real people who I may eventually bump into. And thats kinda weird for me.

    When I was in TY, I did work experience with a lad who I knew on boards. So yeah you probably bumped into a few of us already :D

    Also, before anyone starts quizzing me, that was a different account. I didn't log in for most of TY and ended up forgetting it's password

    Fairly simple. Fairly solid 1 year rule under 18, otherwise do what you like.

    I wouldnt mind seeing yee, but I absolutely refuse to tell my friends Im on Boards, I like being anonymous here, nobody I know can see my posts and know its actually me, I find people far too judgmental to be comfortable telling them I'm on here

    Yep. I told two friends and they were like.... Study log? Gaaaaaayyyy.
    People are more chill on here.

    I have one friend who often gives out about Boards and I just kindve have to agree. Cant risk her finding out, but I suspect she knows I have an account.

    I told another friend but I WILL NEVER tell her who I am, once one person knows.....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 441 ✭✭AndyMc


    I could never be as free speaking if I knew my friends know who I was here.

    And like three other people use the internet in Cavan so im pretty safe from bumping into ye.

    I f anyone knew who I was here, I just wouldn't post, simple as.

    Anonymity is the beauty of boards. I wouldn't tell anyone I was on here.

    2 people in the 5th year forum were actually in the same school. One knew from the start, the other didn't until 2 weeks ago. And one of them knows who the other person is but the other is still guessing I think :)

    Creepy right? :pac:

    I would've been perfectly anonymous but a certain "Acciaccatura" sussed me out. :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 441 ✭✭AndyMc


    Irish seem to be much more free speaking on the internet than other nationalities. Or more insane. Same difference.

    That's one thing I hate about Ireland, you're never anonymous. I could go to Dublin for a day (I live in the west) and I'd have a 90% chance of meeting someone I know. Even on the internet you're not anonymous.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 441 ✭✭AndyMc


    Im goin to use my 100th post to lighten up this thread from the issues of privacy

    Yep, it's a really small country and an even smaller population that virtually removes all anonymity from the internet as well. You're bound to run into each other. If I go to city centre(I'm from Dublin) I'll run into at least 2 or 3 people I know.

    I've met people on the internet who has like 10 friends that know my friends.

    I've met more people from my school shopping in ASDA up the north than my nearest Lidil/Tesco.

    Lol, a whole gang of last year's LC crew went to one of the lad's houses for his birthday soon after the exams (and had a great night by all accounts) but there were a few moments like the following:

    "Joe's" friends: So ... how do you know Joe, then?

    Joe: *looks daggers*

    Boardsies: Oh, from t'internet!

    Joe: *facepalm*

    :D

    Have you leaks for it? I've heard Black Skinhead, I'm a God and New Slaves and they're pretty fooking crazy, he's never been the same since he walked into that pole :pac:
    I still like his new stuff though, I just dying to hear the rest of the tracklist!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 441 ✭✭AndyMc


    It leaked bigtime. Its crazy but its really good. All over torrent sites. Any site that hosts it is shut down by Roc-a-fella in minutes.

    Also all i'll say is Bound 2

    Very very good. Its a bit wired at first since its a bit more techno but its brilliant.

    Blood on the Leaves, Black Skinhead and Bound 2 are my top three with Bound 2 being my favourite.
