The two skins on the forum are really crap, and the chrome one doesn't even work properly.

Surely someone can afford 30 bucks for a decent one?

Have a look here (http://www.extremepixels.com/skins_vb.php), these are some of the best there are, 30 bucks a pop, surely we're worth it, aren't we?

I'm perfectly happy with the chromo skin.

IPB was easier on the eye but I only care about skins if I'm posting in the EATB section.

3 posts and already complaining...

donate 30 bucks to Brian and he maybe will add a new skin ;)

currently 3 skins is enough, yes they have bugs but they will be fixed in the future.

I think UKResident alluded to being a member here before in his first post. Forgot his previous log in, I guess.

Not that this gives him the right to moan but I thought I'd bring it up in an effort to find out the former ID 'cause I'm curious :D

You might like to expound lest be thought of as spouting ill conceived rhetoric.

Btw, I don't think anyone's bashed you in this thread, per se. Neither a member nor a mod.

if you had the same name for a year and had thousands of posts i'd still call you ungrateful. how can expect the admin to pay £15 on a new skin just for you.
if the current selection is so unbearable, fuck off

what do you think? you posted in the lounge.
srry but I dont read any of the things you mentioned in this thread.

if you only wanted serieus replies you should have posted it in the 'Everything related to this board' section.

if you did a search or checked the 'Everything related to this board' section you had noticed that the 2 skins are new and that there was a thread about the current skins




Care to set a date, the future is a big time span :rolleyes:

you should ask an admin this question. bet they dont read this thread.

If you really thought this was important input that needed to be seen by the administration, why did you post in this section?

There is, as IKE writes, a section especially made for that kind of stuff, and it has been there in one form or another for more than 18 months, as far as I know.

You must admit that you could have phrased your initial post more constructively. Are you really surprised at a negative response, particularly since you placed it in the wrong section. Certainly an adult such as yourself should have said, "Sorry, I guess I was being bit rude", then we could have all laughed it off. Instead you took the adolescent wounded fawn cheap shot approach.

I would go for a fresh start, this ain't a big deal. More fun than digging trenches.

BTW, who were you? DiogenesUK?

:lol: :lol: :lol: , please note that is at you, not with you.



That was the only attack in this thread, prior to the post quoted at the head of this post.

The thing which crippled this forum was trolls. However it is regaining it's strength and getting it's goodage back.

Thanks for the input btw. Positive criticism is always appreciated.

Hi Jim,Jp,Pol,Paul,Fugs or whatever you call yourself these days, l see you still act as though you own the place. How's Mary?


An Internet troll is a person who sends duplicitous messages to get angry responses. The term derives from the phrase "trolling for suckers" and ultimately from trolling for fish. The term is frequently abused to slander opponents in heated debates and is frequently misapplied to those who are ignorant of etiquette.

Trolling is often described as an online version of the breaching experiment, where social boundaries and rules of etiquette are broken. Self-proclaimed trolls often style themselves as Devil's Advocates or gadflies or culture jammers, challenging the dominant discourse and assumptions of the forum they are trolling in an attempt to subvert and introduce different ways of thinking. Detractors who value etiquette claim that true Devil's Advocates generally identify themselves as such for the sake of etiquette, whereas trolls often consider etiquette to be something worth trolling in order to fight groupthink.

Trolls are sometimes caricatured as socially inept. This is often due to the fundamental attribution error, as it is impossible to know the real traits of an individual solely from their online discourse. Indeed, since intentional trolls are alleged to knowingly flout social boundaries, it is difficult to typecast them as socially inept since they have arguably proven adept at their goal.

Have you given up your trolling days Jim? Good to hear, it was getting rather tedious, although this 'ownership' stage you're going through is becoming rather tiresome. l guess there's no point asking you to act yourself, or your age?

Billy didn't act like an idiot. He acted like an anti semite, a conspiracy theorist and a fantasist.

Wait, no that's wrong, it wasn't an act he really was these things.

l see you haven't lost your propensity for stabbing people in the back when they aren't around to defend themselves J'Prick. l just wonder why, if you hate Billy so much, you run a section on his forum? J'Pol's Soapbox ('http://www.rikk-cowsys.com/index.php?showforum=132')

l rather suspect you dislike him because he constantly made you look an idiot, and still does, not a hard thing to do.
