LibCom down again?

[Divisive Cotton]

Well... I've never seen any anti-Urban75 comments, but hell... I use both forums and am quite capable of criticism Urban75 on Urban75... the same goes for the others who post on both. This place is hardly going to self-destruct on the criticism from its participants.

 

[Divisive Cotton]

Well, it's not... but there we go.

It's certainly nowhere near the levels of ern's new board, but that's to be expected really.

And to be fair... when I post on that board (I'm a discussion slag) there is definitly a 'no board wars' attitude from the regulars there

I wasn't having a go at you, DC.

Just bored waiting for some software to install and was baiting Butchers.

how would that bait Butchers? he's never on Libcom these days.
why are you making up blatant lies about libcom being for people to slag off urban?

I'm not saying for a second its sole purpose is to slag off Urban - but neither am I lying...

Seems to be yet another place where the "anarkids" can slag off Urban75, as a quick search of their forum reveals...

no wonder yr software's taking so long to download, with you using all manner of searchtools for yr strange quest.

Funny how the main protagonists proudly display trollinggang.org in their status...

 

[butchersapron]

Yes, that second one is very intersting - one poster who made 5 posts in total and nearly all on that thread slags of U75 and load of libcom and TG mods all call him an idiot and defend U75. Bit of an own goal that one.

Keeping quiet about the first one though, eh?

 

[butchersapron]

Not at all, some criticisms of U75 was made over, what 10 posts? Big deal. I'm nothing to do with libcom, i've not posted there in years, i'm just pointing out that you inadvertently managed to undermine your own case and so painted those you're trying to attack in a better light than was your original aim. That's all - i'm not getting dragged into this.

yr obsessed.

 

[editor]

Can't say I'm that bothered - you can't please everyone and it's human nature to have a pop at someone as soon as they start to get anywhere, so maybe I should be flattered by being called a 'Hippy Entrepreneur turned hypocritical fascist capitalist'

I've always had a soft spot for libcom (even if their new name is really, really shit) and they've never been any bother at all to me.

Good luck to 'em I say!

 

[Thora_v1]

Is there some special new internet rule that states no other board may allow criticism of Urban? Is one's membership under threat if you're found not being appropriately positive about Urban elsewhere? Is pk U75's dissent watcher?

 

[Pickman's model]

Is pk U75's dissent watcher?

no, it's something shorter than that and it doesn't begin with a d.

 

[Pilgrim]

Is pk U75's dissent watcher?

Just bored and looking for a fight, more likely.

The Tolling Gang people have already made it perfectly clear that we aren't trying to tempt people over to the dark side and leave U75. Nobody is being asked to choose between the two boards, The Tolling Gang boards are not intended as and never will be a threat to U75 and the people running both boards are not up for a board war.

pk, if you have some intelligent comment to make, then fine, make it.

If not, please stop trying to create bad blood where (as far as I'm aware) none exists.

Thank you.

What the hell's wrong with you?

Where? A couple of nutters who got banned from u75 started posting there about "ediot" and we (the admins) deleted it - this was about 18 months ago. If it started again we'd delete it, like we did then. Most of us post on u75, as I think you'll have noticed, so why are you just making shit up?

Let's see. A joke thread parodying the numerous ones like this.

And a thread where someone with a total of 5 posts slags of urban and gets a bollocking for it.

Well done.

 

[Pickman's model]

nul points for pk's toadying attempt at trolling.

 

[hibee]

Naaa, they'd probably just go through the dustbin to retrieve incorrect information in order to try and insult people.



I certainly haven't slagged libcom.

I see hibee is on form over at the new forums, accusing me and the Editor of swapping child porn no less...

I never accused you or anyone else of collecting child porn.

I am happy to make clear that, to the best of my knowledge, pk has never collected, exchanged or had any involvement with child porn.

It's way more simple and straightforward than that.

If you likened these boards to a pub, and the Editor as landlord - and a load of moaners went and set up their own pub because they didn't like the licencing hours or the beer, then subsequently many of them spent most of their time slagging off the patrons and management of their former drinking establishment, passing round photos and personal info, accusing their former landlord of being racist, etc., then the landlord of said establishment would be well within his rights to bar the whole sorry lot of them.

Then the newly set-up bar would soon run out of beer, and many of the backstabbing former patrons would inevitably come crawling back, tail betwixt legs.

I think it's perfectly clear that many - though not all - of the people behind this new forum have been eager to pour scorn and snide comments on U75 and the management, and have been for some time.... in spite of the vehement "how duur you!" denials to the contrary.

My advice to those people is simple - don't come back, it's not as though you're missed!

and this has got to do with Libcom how?

Also people don't like arselicks.

i get the feeling you haven't considered that analogy at all. cos it's crap.

 

[hibee]

The one who spends his time "pouring scorn", and an obsessive amount of time, trainspotter-like, counting people's posts and so on, is you.

 

[Pilgrim]

It's also an abject LIE that The Tolling Gang people are largely composed of self-confessed troublemakers and backstabbers.

WE've said, on a number of occasions, that we have NO INTENTION WHATSOEVER of starting a board war.

We also have NO intention of attacking these boards or their management. It is true that some posters in The Tolling Gang are banned from here.

It is also true that many, if not most, of The Tolling Gang's current membership post on both boards. Nobody's being forced to choose between U75 and the Tolling Gang.

What useful purpose would it serve for us, a fledgling board, to start a board war with as large a board as U75? It wouldn't do either board any favours. And the general consensus at The Tolling Gang is to have NO board wars.

The Libcom boards also have U75 posters, and some of the posters banned from Libcom have also found a home at The Tolling Gang boards. As have some Libcom posters who continue to use both the Libcom and The Tolling Gang boards. I haven't as yet seen any complaints from the Libcom people about The Tolling Gang or vice versa.

The Tolling Gang boards are not intended to be better or worse than U75. They are merely intended to be something different.

I thought we'd sorted out all this on a previous thread.

So, pk, stop this, please.

Nobody, apart from you seemingly, wants another bunfight over this issue.

 

[butchersapron]

Mate just ignore it, there's no need to respond. Just leave him to it.
