To have a sleeper accounting sitting idle for over a decade, slowly biding your time before unleashing multiple red reputation points, is serious dedication.

 

I can't even remember the password for a few stock thi gs I set up over a fortnight ago. Who writes down and keeps account passwords that long 'just in case'?

Dedication isn't how I'd describe it.

is this a service that forum members could  collectively offer, now that the thread of 'asian murder hornets' * invading over the channel is a real and present danger ?

have any P&B'ers ever snuggled up to a dangerous, bitey insect until it spontaneously combusted ?

Surely 3 bottles of wine per day has to be about the maximum amount that's drinkable.   

I’ve only ever managed two bottles of the tonic wine spread out over a full day so fair play brother for managing three, remarkable stuff.

One or more of the mods has a thing about him. I'd say he's one of the least offensive posters on the forum. I think he's been banned from teasing the nano-thin skinned cycling community.

They should wear lycra, imho

Au contraire, I’ve become far more placid with the pressures of work lifted.

Can’t belief that tosspot is moaning about red dots.  

 

 

Actually I can.

That's why you should retire.

Pressure and stress disappeared as soon as I quit work.

I occasionally read some of the e-mail chains from my last work. Thank f*** to be rid of that shit.

The P&B annual 5s tournaments were a perfect melting pot for this type of thing. Loads of brilliant characters showed up to those things but sometimes, you'd get a right gobby one on here showing up and were socially crippled to the point they wouldn't even speak to anyone else. 

Name the guilty men!

It would be useful to have some guidelines as some posters are abusive most of the time.

Stop posting then...

...and, remarkably, not unusual. Some folk seem to have dozens of accounts just waiting for the day that the banhammer falls/a stranger on the internet annoys them. Every now and then someone will point out that there are loads of zombie accounts, set up donkeys years ago, that will occasionally spring into life purely to give reputation points. They must need to keep a list of login details somewhere. Presumably they've set up multiple VPN connections to stop the mods realising it's all the same person. Just imagine the time that setting all this up, then logging in and out of these accounts, must take. And this is just one website; they'll likely do it elsewhere too.

Christ, I've come out in a cold sweat. There are worse monsters than WaffenThinMint out there. Bobby Skidmarks got off light.

It depends what you value more: your life in WTM’s case or (far more seriously imo) your reputation on here.

Yup. Gone for the time being. Benny’s dome blast has blown it out of orbit I think.

Not really a heads gone, just folk getting snipey and personal.

I think the reaction to Bennett might have been wot done it.

[welshbairn]

Just someone using stuff said on the depression thread as ammo. Not cool. Not Bennett or anyone taking the pish out his trolling efforts.

I think there's no harm in coming together and writing it down as a procedure, maybe to be activated by a code phrase in a thread. The key is to incrementally say more and more provocative things to your intended target until they push themselves over the line with their own posts.
 
I'd recommend [mention=15829]Day of the Lords[/mention] as the chairman of this endeavour as he's done this masterfully on occasion.

High praise, though triggering the likes of Kincy isn't much of a challenge.

It was the tightrope act you performed while getting Malky's buddy banned I was thinking of. Every post just the right side of action leading to a heads gone overreaction. Give folk enough rope...

@Glenanover maybe? I can't remember what eventually got him booted, but i vaguely remember that getting him very angry was good fun. He was kind of like what would happen if @WaffenThinMint had ever started spending significant time in the Politics sub-forum. A creepy wee headcase who is undoubtedly on the radar of his local Social Work's Criminal Justice Service.

That's him, I always struggle to remember folk after they've been emptied.

I actually thought Glenanover was an alias of McSpreader's equally creepy pal from a year or two back. Fucked if i could remember the name but he was a homophobic wee arsehole with a very similar posting style.

I thought it was Malky's grandson or something, they had a weird double act going.

No i don't think so, Malky was a just a fantasist who would invent stories about members of his family to tie in with whatever anti-SNP rage he was having on a given day. Curiously they both claimed to be engineers on the same day in different posts on different threads.
