Like 9ONz0 said,

how would they like it if it was them who were being made fun of?

They wouldn't.

Whoever does another picture will receive a hefty "COCK OFF".

It'd be different if she were dead.

I know that sounds cruel, but it's true you know.

I can cope with un-pc pics, but all the stuff

with this girl in have just been blindingly unoriginal 'haha - I'll take this girl's face and put it on this - haha' pics.

i don't really care that much either way.

i think i've developed a b3ta blindspot - i just don't see bandwagons any more. rather like a seantress' callous. maybe there's a better analogy for that.

I've been looking at the FP mostly for the last few days

school/student holidays have unleashed a horde of trolls

(

I never see the FP

as I arrive at the board through m3ss3ng3r.

i have even less of an opinion on n00bs.

we were all n00bs once. apart from rob, pep and cal, obviously. there's no way around having shit threads, shit bandwagons, and general arseholes posting on the board. 95% of them piss off anyway, and the rest of them get the hang of it eventually. some very acccomplished posters started as trolls or borderline trolls.

I know - I used to be crap once (still am most of the time)

I just hate being reminded of what I once was :P

as much

as i dislike this bandwagon, I must say this is all somewhat hypocritical..

(

not if you think all of the pics are rubbish

there is just no comic potential there; with 9/11, you can do stuff like 9/11 lego sets or something...

(

custard, Thu 7 Aug 2003, 18:55, archived)

There probably is comic potential.

It's just all the posts so far have not been funny.

(

supermoore: HUNG, Thu 7 Aug 2003, 18:56, archived)

but 9/11

is soooooo 2001...

(

100% of Gibbon, Thu 7 Aug 2003, 18:57, archived)

well no

but that doesn't seem to be what the general argument is. Of course it's not nice to take the piss out of people for things that they have little control over, but at the end of the day that's what b3ta is.
And if pictures were getting deleted for simply being unfunny then the board wouldn't be moving half so quickly..

if pictures were getting deleted for simply being unfunny

i wouldn't have ever had anything posted.

I usually ignore stuff I don't like, but the awfulness of this

bandwagon (in terms of pic quality) has pushed me over the edge; must be the heat or something.

(

custard, Thu 7 Aug 2003, 19:08, archived)

That was kind of my point.

(

supermoore: HUNG, Thu 7 Aug 2003, 18:56, archived)

it was aimed

at the others really, I just like carrying on the line :)

(

Lora, Thu 7 Aug 2003, 18:59, archived)

aha, so you are responsible for those threads

that end up over --------------------) there

(

custard, Thu 7 Aug 2003, 19:01, archived)

not all of them!

But yes, when I find someone nice to chat to :)

(

Lora, Thu 7 Aug 2003, 19:03, archived)

I don't like those threads because my monitor is only

3 inches wide.

(it's 6 feet tall though, cos I design radio masts for people)

(

custard, Thu 7 Aug 2003, 19:07, archived)

well I'm pretttty sure you're taking the piss. I'm not that gullible.
