why have some people got it in for fishplums?

brusma [Edit] [Delete] 94 replies 17:45, 4 August '08

it honestly bewilders me

is it because he's the only admin, i know people are naturally hostile toawrds admins on messageboards just like they're sometimes naturally hostile to superiors at work or whatever - there's always a "i could do it better" or "i have a right to have a better service provided for me, the paying/not-paying customer". yeah, well done, retards.

this whole 39 thing is pretty baffling, too. far as i can tell, twentynine was never banned or anything, yesterday a few people were being pillocks and fishplums decided to call them out on it and suddenly he's adolf fucking eichmann. wut?

so anyway, come on, those of you who think fishplums is the worst thing since general pinochet, c'mon and tell us why

      Everyone's mental today.

      I don't get it. Can't we talk bout favourite 80s icecreams like we all used to... Like Nobbly Bobblies or FABs?

      • A regular user came

        on last night under the name hansblix and told everyone to leave fishplums alone. He later claimed he would lay me out. Sounds like something you would do.

              • On top of which

                it'd be absurd for someone to post anonyomously one day because they don't want people to know they're criticinsg other DiSers then ask the exact same question under their own name less than 24 hours later.

              • Well there's a difference

                between beating people up and threatening to beat people up on the internet. He's already done the latter at least once.

                • Well I've not seen what he posted

                  so obvously couldn't really say much without knowing the context but he's always struck me as a perfectly reasonable, likeable and non-violent guy whenever I've met him.

                    • For what it's worht (nothing) here's my two cents

                      This whole Operation 39 or whatever guff it represents is total TOTAL shit. It seems to be a handful of users who are effectively low level trolls who just turn up and spam the shit out of everything, randomly abuse people and fuck it all up for everyone else.

                      This embarrassing 39 issue is the climax to what has been DiS growing shit over the last couple of months. To be honest, I'm fully fed up of all the negative bollocks, harsh one-liners and all that so called “amusing” stuff that is cropping up more and more just causing tension and pissing people off.

                      No wonder fishplums, as the main regulator or the boards, is thinking of doing something about it. I would. I'm not taking sides, I'm just pointing it out how it is. It fucks me off.

                      I love DiS for it being a group of familiar usrenames (and sometimes faces) banter, conversation topics and for the fact it is normally out and out funny and thought provocking and resourceful. Recently, because of a few spamming turds, none of these and is it's turning into some kind of playground.

                              and there has been huge amounts of people wading into this fishplums thing when they're not sure what's going on, so it's dragged out for 2 days. it was a joke
