This is a question No Self-Awareness

I had a boss who had no idea of his body odour problem, and everybody was too tactful to break it to him. Not so a visiting Rev Ian Paisley: "What the blazes is that smell? Is it you?" That sorted it. Stories of people blissfully unaware of their bad smells, bad manners and foghorn voices.

Yeah but UFM's point is that basically a small group of "trollie"-like people from 1 area of b3ta
have managed to piss off most of the regular posters in this section with their constant negative and in joke, "comedy website" comments to the point that many regular posters no longer bother posting their stories due to the flack that they get.

Please feel free to fuck off /talkers. Or at least go to OT.

I know. Looking back at the old questions, most of the people in there have moved on to other things.
The interesting thing is how many of them left about the time AB et al started appearing in here and annoying others. Maybe they were getting tired of qotw anyway. There's no way to know, as they're gone. But for a fact the comments have gotten a lot bitchier of recent times.

Of course if people tried telling amusing stories rather than self-aggandising, whining or outright lying...

Won't somebody think of the comedy website?

Pretty sure it's a free website, would you rather we were all segregated you prick?
I doubt that the intention when b3ta was designed was to have an area for all the people who like to look at pictures, an area for people who like to talk, another area for people who like to tell outrageous lies...
I imagine that they felt b3tans might want to do all of those things. It's just that certain groups of people have claimed each of these areas and the sort of people who seem to gravitate towards QOTW are unfunny and overly sensitive and have so little social awareness that they are completely surprised and upset when someone points out that the 'hilarious' anecdote they have just posted demonstrates how much of a cunt they are.

But Shirley when 1 particular group from 1 area
basically invades another area - essentially using their powers of repetition and hanging shit on the regular posters (regardless of what they have posted) then the attacks are simply there as trolling rather than as input to the question.
When I got here 4 odd years ago qotw had it's own group of "That's shit, more Honda Accord, you're a cunt" commentators. Unfortunately not many of them are around any longer & neither are many of the posters that had some interesting stories. Hence the shit-flinging and bad puns. Constantly.

You know what?
Forums are only as good as their content. Tell a funny, literate, concise and true story.

So your story is?
Please feel free to post a story that's less than 2 years old. & relevant.
Otherwise you just look another one of the commentators. Ad infinitum. Especially when you constantly post reposts of stories that you have in your "archive", mostly tenuously adapted to fit the parameters of the question.

And if you look at all the qotw answers for the last couple of years I think you'll find that I have posted a story. Barr a couple of bad puns or "stories" they've all been true.

EDIT: and now all of a sudden it's not a "comedy website" but about posting "funny, literate, concise and true stories".
Despite the fact that you could easily have your cake and eat it AB (physically) you can't have both. You either want to partake as a protagonist or an antagonist. Which is it?

His wife certainly had her cake and ate it.
The whole fucking bakery, point of fact.

2 can chunder.
All your posts have this sort of 'Oh, yeah, and I just thought of ANOTHER thing' quality to them.

You should let AB do the heavyweight cuntery, he's better at it.

I've been wondering if you'd ever actually attempt to mash out a fully formed sentence, rather than your usual grab-bag of unimaginative swears. So, well done for that, even if the result was a little dull and unimpressive. I would suggest, if this part of the website upsets you so very much, you have a little sit down, or go outside for a walk, or perhaps just restrict your viewing to parts of the site that make you feel more comfortable; you're not obliged to be here, railing against everything you perceive as a crime against literature like a futile, nerdy vigilante.
