This is 100% true, by the way. Unfortunately I don't have copies of Greg's death certificate or a sworn affidavit from his mum on hand to scan in and put up here, but them's the breaks.

Thanks.

You have kept the Cunt!!! letter though

( Peej, Thu 28 Jan 2010, 17:15, closed)

Yes he would keep the note from his best mate
I don't think he actually has a copy of the death certificate because I don't think he'd ever have actually been in a position to be given it; they don't usually give copies out to friends, you know. And the affadavit from this chaps mum was all part of what we call in non-angry land a 'joke'. If reading this posters stuff really gets to you that much just dont read them. Put him on ignore and get on with your life. So much anger. And having a go at someone who's put on a post which is pretty personal stuff is just a little bit low.

Last time I post a reply to this tedious shit. I'm not particularly sticking up for Spanky, but I'm sticking up for his right to contribute on here. You and no one else has the right to try and hound someone out of posting. Just shows you up as being a bit of a shit. And anyway I doubt Spanky really gives a toss what the 'angry internet' thinks about him. So do us all a favor and jog on, my friend. Another on the ignore list. Fucking piss easy to do. Do it.

A B3ta Mod says
ALL - Please lay off the personal stuff on B3ta. We don't like to see attacks on the board, especially if it means long-standing members no longer want to contribute. Stop it.

We shall speak no more of this.

(Not a reply to Lizard King, btw, just a general point on unpleasantness)

Well said.
I don't really read Spanky's posts any more but regularly questioning their validity or people's appreciation of them is considerably more tedious.

Can I just point out that I never suggested he had a death certificate.

( Peej, Thu 28 Jan 2010, 20:43, closed)

In your defence I thought it was a severe overreaction.

( Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Thu 28 Jan 2010, 20:49, closed)

you know that being able to post whatever you want works both ways right?
the above post does indeed seem genuine, and a bit touching for it. it certainly makes a nice change from the wanking jokes, regardless of how well written, but by spazzing out in defence of it you are in effect trying to deny others their opportunity to say whatever the fuck they want.

don't like the replies to some posts? then don't read them

WINNER!

And writing shit like I'm Not Going To Read This
on a post just to get a rise out of people is equally banal, actually taking the time to do this indicates a flaw somewhere or other. Yes, people have a right to critise. People do not, however, have a right to set out on a bullying campaign just for the sake of it.

This is getting very old. People should grow up and use their ignore button instead of putting I'm Not Going To Read This or other such mindless drivel on the board.

Last thing I'm saying about it.
(Podgirl, Fri 29 Jan 2010, 9:36, closed)

it's not a bullying campaign
it's a peaceful protest. If there were an "I don't like this" button then it would be clicked, but as that is not the case...

personally I don't mind what people post, the lies can be just entertaining as the truths, it's the hypocritical way that people jump to other's defence.

Spanky's response below does him far more credit than the representation of someone like LizardKing.

Peaceful protest?
Attempting to force someone to stop posting on a free website by constant harrassment? We've all got a right to read and post on here, Spanky's posts are popular judging by where he usually ends up on Best Of page. If you can't accept that the MAJORITY of the readers like his posts then thats an issue with you. If you refer to Scaryduck you'll see the Mods aren't happy about this sort of behavior either. Sorry to have to tell you this but you do not own the internet. And this site in particular is available to all. How about an end to all this now? Getting very very OLD.
(Irish Lobster, Fri 29 Jan 2010, 11:49, closed)

I don't particularly think it counts as harrassment
as plenty have said, if you don't like it then don't read it. The internet is open to all, and if some want to express themselves by saying they don't like, or aren't reading, someone else's posts then who are you, or anyone else, to say they can't?

what is worse in fact, is people complaining to the mods on the behalf of others to get someone banned.
Saying you don't like a post, or aren't reading it is hardly a banning offence.

Fair enough
but declaring that anyone who follows Spanky's posts and likes them is a twat is out of order too. Works both ways.
(Irish Lobster, Fri 29 Jan 2010, 11:56, closed)

not going to argue with you there
my points aren't really related to the original poster or the content
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Fri 29 Jan 2010, 11:59, closed)

But when there is a well defined group of regulars who repeatedly (ad nauseum)
go on and on about how shit another poster is, it does become a form of bullying. That and it's just plain weird how some people get so fucking worked up about one person's usually very popular posts. I don't get it.

We should save our rants and raves about important stuff like how the government is hiding real UFO stuff and how all of our leaders are actually clones of Joseph Stalin. You know, the real stuff that really matters.
(MichaelS wasn't picked again, Fri 29 Jan 2010, 12:23, closed)

I suspect Stalin clones would do a better job
they would have better moustaches too.
