My god,but it is some mess, of abuse, WUMs,bullshit artists and concern-trolls.....how it got a reputation for excessive moderation is beyond me,it has shit moderation,not excessive moderation is the problem

Before my ban I respectfully and politely asked for the term “cis” not to be used as it was not a real word, I’m a woman - end of.knownunknown wrote: ↑Sun Mar 19, 2023 1:41 pm They excessively moderate the subjects that don’t agree with their politics.

I was replied to with “terfs like you make me sick”. I reported it and got nothing.
Then I snapped and said “idiots who don’t know basic biology make me sick”. Week’s ban and the eve was nigh.

Firstly, I didn't refer to them as fat. Secondly, I am very pleased with the victory. I just gave my opinion that I think media coverage is a little over the topPlaneSpeeking wrote: ↑Mon Mar 20, 2023 9:58 am Yeah God forbid we're happy about something our country achieved.

Apologies - it was the very epitome of me being a dick.
It's just the win meant so much to me as the last Slam I watched with my dad and he didn't see why it was important as his dementia was taking hold.
The Slam before in 2009 we celebrated like loons - it means something.
I reacted poorly without thinking - sorry again. V touchy today - third delightful week of the flu and it's a pain in the hole.

Sorry PS ...
I just don't like Rugby and call it "Fat men running into each other competition" just as a jest.
Let's not become like they are over on planks.
I like Tennis, some people hate that, think it's a borefest...

I call soccer a big girls game and I won't say what how I refer to the GAA. It's all in jest.

I use to work with a lad who use to called it culchie fighting. Although he seemed to have a grudging respect for Hurling. But that may have had more to do with lads swinging big sticks around

I see a long standing poster who lives of the west coast of Ireland has been site banned. Now that's interesting. They must have been very naughty

I never knew what to make of that poster - 31,000+ posts and banned. Planks loss - perhaps the said poster will move here. We could do with a few prolific posters.

Re: Boards Megathread - Read OP before posting.
Yes. I was very surprised. They always struck me as one of the untouchable's. I know over the years some questioned the OP's back story and others thought they were a parody account. Maybe the Mod's found out something.PlaneSpeeking wrote: ↑Wed Mar 22, 2023 10:20 am No way - I thought they'd be there till the bitter end !?!!
Re: Boards Megathread - Read OP before posting.
Sadly, the poster in question is no longer with us. I believe the account was removed based on the wishes of the family. RIP. Storms won't be the same without her.

That is really sad, I didn't agree with everything she posted but seemed a genuinely decent sort deep down - may she rest in peace.

Really? I thought her account was banned due to a recent thread about a stolen car.

Are you referring to G****** ?
She was posting up to a few days back. Are you say she died this week?

Re: Boards Megathread - Read OP before posting.
That's the last post she made. I thought the stolen car thread in the Christianity forum might have caused the ban. I know that she was banned in the past. There is no Walter Mitty stuff either, the woman is as she says she is.
