    How about we randomly pick on offending Troller from the Trolls board and 12-click them!

    That will prove a deterent to getting into the Trolls board and reset their count etc...

    Just a thought smile.gif

    I think the best deterent would be to 12 click whoever posts the most to the trolls board (or any board?) each week. I wonder how long it would be b4 the trolling would end ...

    I second Osiris's sugggestion with a modification ... 12 click anybody who posts on trolls period ... then send the boys around to 12 click their asses good!

    Trolls is the fault of the admins ... it is giving them a reason to spam. and if they get rid of it the spammers will simple spam the others boards ... humour and after hours being prime targets.

    they created a monster and now have no control over it

    [Edited to make some (?) sence]

    If you 12-click a random user from trolls, make sure that the person is a spammer and not just some poor soul who happened to post on the thread before it became troll-food

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,660 ✭✭✭Baz_


    DeV that's an absolutely fu<king brilliant idea in fact so good you've scared me from there already.

    But to crash and burn thanks for the links to the three other threads probably the best laugh I'll have all day.

    Great idea Dev. I think you should be the first one 12 clicked in such a manner.. Might stop your head from blowing up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,004 ✭✭✭Lord Khan


    lets start by 12 clicking crash and baz_ first :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,617 ✭✭✭✭PHB


    cloud can we do that now,
    also how come some peoples register date is blank?

    Because we existed before boards.ie did. Anyone with a blank date registered when it all started.

    Great idea, quite the deterrant! smile.gif

    you forgot to add the other two points:
    "We've been here since time began."
    "We are your elders. Respect us."

    about the Trolls.. absolutely no point in 12-clicking them.. sure they'll just be back.. with vengence wink.gif


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,617 ✭✭✭✭PHB


    you mean your oldies, hehe.
    what about that members link?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,004 ✭✭✭Lord Khan


    yeah but if we 12 clicked him .... think what would happen the sudden release of that ego from a pressurised container ....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 897 ✭✭✭Greenbean


    12 click sounds like an awful lot of work smile.gif

    The thing is people can simply re-register no? Its much harder to actually get rid of real nuisances permanently.

    Ahh the ones that have no date are the old guys they where around when it was cloud boards biggrin.gifbiggrin.gifbiggrin.gifbiggrin.gifbiggrin.gifbiggrin.gif


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,099 ✭✭✭✭WhiteWashMan


    i have to say dev i dont think its a good idea.
    poeple can reregister and start making life more difficult, and secondly any newbies might make the mistake of seeing this board, taking an interest and posting lots to add their post count. then they get deleted for no reason. that would p1ss anyone off.
    12 clicking is all well and fine for a 'well-know' trouble maker. but look at kharn, all he does is add 'plyd' and 'lol' to posts, but i dont think we should 12-click him, do you? on the other hand....

    I'm just deleting all troll type posts from Humanities now - the Troll forum just encourages cretinous behaviour.

    If someone thinks their incredibly funny spam post will just be deleted they won't bother their ar$es posting in the first place, most of the time.

    That's what I do. Unless thier post was in a thread which was OK, in which case I just delete the persons post.
