Digital Spy Forums #3

[Boring Monday]

the first Madeline Mcann thread lasted from on DS May 2007-May 2008

and lasted over

SIXTY NINE THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED POSTS

it got rather vicious

presumably that's why shes a banned topic

That and them quickly turning a bit bonkers.
it’s about the only time I felt sorry for a Mod, when a front Page crime story was ongoing. The armchair - or even out the armchair and timing a journey down the motorway - sleuths were enthusiastic to say the least. You could image the actual Cops reading the thread and hitting their forehead - sorry guys, that theory is out. DS says so.

Excellent work Victoria!

I hope you are right, but I am a cynic so don't share your optimism. It's the same FMs who got me and other posters banned, yet they are still there, scot-free to post at their will.

However, now the major forums have been closed, perhaps the mods will have more time to monitor certain threads and those posting on them.

They had so much aggro dealing with complaints on the Chitchat thread that it has its own set of T&Cs at the beginning. I used to flag up so many, mainly complaints about Bangla's bullying and Oleo Strut's vile, lavatorial descriptions, that I received a warning from them. It probably hastened my permaban!

Excellent work Victoria!

I'm dying, too funny.

 

[Doctor_Wibble]

Doctor_Whibbles toast post hilarious, Tanya got her nose put out of joint.

Weirdly (and therefore within the parameters of my default setting) it was only intended as lightly sarcastic (also part of the default setting) as the bread in question is 'hand finished' tomato sourdough but it's on the posh breads shelf and anything vaguely artisan is presumed to be hand knitted.

I'm more disappointed that nobody picked up on the lack of apricot jam on the tomato bread toast.

Nonetheless amused at seeing a sponge throw in the towel... interesting technique, self banning by proxy.

I think the mods have given up on DS.

The comments by Victoria Sponge are still there. Over an hour later.

It must really annoy Bangla that the comments haven't been swiftly removed. GOOD!

Update: Now an hour and a half later!

 

[Bubbles Tizzy]

Also said my last goodbye to our friend Bangla...

Looks like they are ignoring you - guess Banglaturd got hold of their gang by dm and told them not to respond. Lovely bit of telling someone what you think of them, well done. Also they seem to be trying to lose the pages quiickly by talking tit as per usual.

Be great if someone could quote Spongey's posts & make them appear on several pages of the lbc thread, as it progresses.

Edit - looks like Snowy just did that

If I was in Victoria's mood, I would do just that.

I don't want to go just yet.

If it is announced that all of DS forums is to go, I'll most definately let rip then.

Those that I know, like and haven't seen the absolute need to annoy me, have nothing to fear.

So farewell Digital Spy. You used to be funny and interesting. Sadly it seems you have succumbed to early onset dementia and have had to take early retirement.

Condolences to the prolific posters who are now homeless. They'll have to take to the streets with cardboard banners and megaphones to spread their often abhorrent views.

 

[Dogtanian]

You honestly have to wonder how these people behave in the real world?! Are they just as aggressive and confrontational? Hmmmm I bet they're just keyboard warriors and DS is the only place they have status.

Hit... nail... head

Haha yes I noticed that. It’s possible he may have blocked me, but if he has, he’ll be able to see if someone quoted me, isn’t it?

either way, I guess he and/or his friends have already reported me/my comments and and are eagerly waiting for the moderators to start their morning shifts.

I also suspect a great many of them are poisoning Facebook and Twitter too.

Yes, it should show up

 

[IngressUK]

It looks as if Lucy Van Pelt has been banned from DS. She has been on AV saying she won't be back anyway.

Some good has occurred.

Every time you see them arrested on the news for giving out death threats to an MP it's some large neckbeard who has aspergers.

How are things over on AV at the moment?

Are the usual suspects acting out over there?

 

[IngressUK]

Snowy Ghost bumped up Victoria's posts on LBC.

Only to jump to Banglaturds defence.

It's all very nice, plenty of emojis & avatars.
Some of them won't last a month, though there are plenty who just want to chat, post pics & be nice, to be fair.
I think a lot will do their own thing in the many sub forums on AV which relate to their interests/hobbies.
The agitators will get found out in time.

 

[ColaMonster]

Does anybody remember a poster on DS who said that they would leave the forum once they reached a certain amount of posts? I think they were a student in between school and College?
