Boring posts.

[Lionel Bart-At]

I am.

And I suppose we wouldn't be able to join in if the conversation were kept private.

But as someone who frequently falls foul of the moderator I wouldn't even dream of contributing to a thread such as this.

Doh!!

 

[kaebess]

I seem to recall I was being a bit of a tw*t

there is the problem, you were only being a bit of a tw.t

if you’re a complete tw.t that’s ok

 

[vcmazz]

we need a shake up of moderators, new blood needed, someone like nanny or the fella that's not allowed to start threads


edit. just thought of his name @Morribee

Why isn't Morribee allowed to start threads?

 

[Simon W]

To be honest some peoples posts are more entertaining after 11pm so have a list of those who can’t post unless pissed

Anyone remember “Sweepy’s Late Night Live”

 

[Hippobee]

Surely varied posts make this site what it is. One person's boring is another's interesting read. If it's boring to someone, just read past it or ignore the thread? I can't see the harm or the need to delete, because one individual decides no-one else will find it interesting.

I may have been guilty in the past of over-posting on a thread or two (and am unable to post on one particular thread for a reason that doesn't break the GPG CoC). I'm sure someone will tell me if I overstep the mark or become a bore though.

I see lots of posts that bore me, others that annoy me and some very repetitive ones. However, others' interpretation of those very same post will be totally different.

Sorry you lost me ?

 

[vcmazz]

a list of posters who are well known to be protected by the owner

Where is this list please?

Which reminds me. Brown envelope will be put through your letterbox this evening. Sorry it's a bit late. Won't happen again.

Jesus, that’s so insensitive!!!
No one on here is allowed to push anything through his letterbox

No, don't think you were with me.

 

[Silly Hat]

Who’s more boring,the hoi poli the sycophants or the condescenders.I’m confused.

If you’re going to attempt to use Greek on the GPG whilst complaining about the consescenders at least get it right please. It’s ‘hoi polloi’. And strictly speaking you don’t need to use ‘the’ in front of the phrase ‘hoi’ as it means ‘the’ in the original.

Banana wouldn’t have made this schoolboy error.

Happy to help on both the condescending and sycophant fronts

 

[vcmazz]

I thought this thread was going to be rubbish, but it's actually great isn't it? Real potential. Anyway that's my three. Back tomorrow. Might save one for the matchday thread.

You can’t go wrong on a thread like this. If your post is deemed to be boring, then it complies with the thread title. If you’re commenting on boring posts but regaling us all at the same time, I’d have thought that’s fine too.
As for your Christmas cracker joke quiz thread, ………the less said the better.
By the way, I had an egg for breakfast this morning. What did you have?

 

[rebus]

The reason the posts were removed was given as “boring” They were not off topic.
Typical it’s “my ball” comment too.

I get posts deleted on here all the time but I don’t piss and moan about it. Have some more Turkey sandwiches!

 

[Silly Hat]

‘Consescenders’ ?

Plural of condescender. Just repeating what he said. He probably meant ‘patronisers’ (said in a most patronising manner).

 

[fencer/bee]

Sounds like a load of crap to me

No need to come on here and poo poo my my posts

It's near FC Midtjelland, if that helps

Re sycophancy, may I be the first to say that yours is a simply marvellous post.

Makes you wanna go fishing

 

[Voice from the Braemar]

The thread last night about Team selection vs Man City. Mods decided my debate with Hadleigh Bee was boring and so a handful of posts deleted. I care that much but this site is a sad imitation of what it used to be.
Who are the mods to decide it’s boring? Offensive I get, trolling I get but two blokes with opposite views on a chat site discussing team selection without swearing or offending each other ?

On the topic of boring, please have a look at a list of posters who are well known to be protected by the owner and they are what I would call boring, victims who invite criticism with sweeping statements bordering on bullying themselves and then claim to be the persecuted, that is boring !!

Have a great New Year

Wow….even I guessed at Flybee by that description

 

[Silly Hat]

Re sycophancy, may I be the first to say that yours is a simply marvellous post.

Thank you for your patronising comment

 

[Inappropriate Smilies Bee]

FULL HOUSE!!!!!!

Should have been posted in the double boring thread.

You're clearly a smart chap, Mr Hat.
I therefore felt obliged to google ‘Consescenders’.
I conclude that you're not as smart as I thought you were.
Worse still, neither am I.

Thank you for you sycophancy. And you are right Can I pretend it was a test of the GPG’s reading and spelling skills please?

Grow up. I’m entitled to question a deletion. I am having goose this year and I don’t give a **** what you think!

As far as I know you’re not a Mod so how about you keep your nose out of it, you’re the reason why we do need Mods

 

[SydneySwansBee]

How do we question a deletion as I don't think there's a way of hoi polloi knowing which moderator deleted a post?

 

[Raymond Howard]

Are you Hadleigh, Essex? If so, lived just a few miles from you.

You don't question it, Simples. You don't question God do you?!

 

[SydneySwansBee]

Are you Hadleigh, Essex? If so, lived just a few miles from you.

Or are you Hadleigh, Suffolk? If so I have never lived near you but my gggrandfather lived there.

You just accept that it’s a great forum and if you upset them and get any sort of ban you swallow it and take your medicine or leave.
It’s the owners ball and if you want to join in you do what you’re told and just bite your tongue or post and take the consequences.

If you don’t want a ban, like his posts, thank him a lot, post about wildlife you’ve seen, films, Covid etc.
Please try and avoid having an opinion about the performances, players, transfer targets or trouble at games, it doesn’t land well with a football fans forum

 

[Raymond Howard]

Or are you Hadleigh, Suffolk? If so I have never lived near you but my gggrandfather lived there.

Essex, but this is so boring!

 

[rebus]

As far as I know you’re not a Mod so how about you keep your nose out of it, you’re the reason why we do need Mods

And you wrote that without a hint of irony, old bean!

I was. Moved near Lowestoft now.

Oh. I'm a little further away in the US.

 

[JCMcBee]

...still not sure what a sychophant actually is....but I like the word.

 

[Hippobee]

Ahem, and I quote from the GPG CoC...

14. Posting about football violence (including in an historical context) is not permitted. (!)

 

[sonofabee]

And you wrote that without a hint of irony, old bean!

You’re making the boring thread boring, go and do what you’re good at and pop on another thread and upset people

 

[Silly Hat]

...still not sure what a sychophant actually is....but I like the word.

Neither do I.

Do you mean sycophant, per chance?

 

[JCMcBee]

....that's the one....bit too high brow for me truth be told....will keep it simple next time....tit or arse will suffice.

 

[HadleighBee]

You’ve found one of his protected “friends” who won’t criticise as he’s a victim who enjoys the attention

I thought so

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

Oh. I'm a little further away in the US.

We could have a "where I live" thread. That wouldn't be boring.

 

[I'll Bee Damned]

Are you Tony the Tiger of Frosties ad fame?

But what if it's an "interesting" post? Wouldn't that be deemed off-topic?

 

[JCMcBee]

ahhhh frosties...one of the least boring choices in the kellogs 'mini/selection box' series I'd suggest.
