lumpenprol Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Whatever. I'm never in favor of increased oversight as a means to "improve" forum quality. The best way to improve this forum is to have the so-called intelligent long time fans contribute something interesting. Oh, that's right - there's no new BoC news, what new BoC output there's been hasn't been very inspiring, hence there's fuck all to talk about. Ripping up n00bs for showing a little enthusiasm is absurd. As soon as there's better content on here, the "What color is BoC's hair?" threads will sink out of sight.

Guest chromakey_dreamcoat Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 If you find newbs of this subforum too newb, how will they begin to discuss about Boards of Canada? Just erase that thread, someone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BunnyRabbit Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Here's a crazy idea, why not stop being so superior and dictatorial and just fucking ignore the threads that wind you up? It seems to me that half of the problem is people providing oxygen to this kind of thread rather than just letting it slip away. Also, couldn't we have a sticky topic for newbs that points them to the Fredd-e pages so they can get with the program before posting. I've never understood the mentality of people telling other people what they are and aren't allowed to post about. Before the subforums every BOC post was stamped on for being another BOC thread and now we have the subforum the same thing is hapening. I never go to general banter because I haven't got time to wade through all the irelevant posts. I just ignore it. I don't waste my time criticising it.

Alzado Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 i think the members of the jazz band all simultaneously died with the post of this thread. the stress was too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jack.GG Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Yeah, instead of taking the piss out of the new people, how about just replying with a link to Fredd-E's website? I think it would cause far less aggro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Iain C Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 Does Fredd E's website have an archive on the ongoing debate RE BoC's hair colour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Mekon Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 No, but it has a Paypal button because he's a terrible whore. If his additions were of a similar quality to the davidac originals it might be acceptable, but the state of the site now just shows the true reason he took it on in the first place (attention, free automatic respect, money, and an excuse to over-design).

Guest Iain C Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 Actually I'd guess he took it on in the first place just to keep it online, I think Davidac was planning on getting rid of it before Fredd volunteered to take it on.

Guest chromakey_dreamcoat Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 Does Fredd E's website have an archive on the ongoing debate RE BoC's hair colour? This thread started because I debated with the user Earth on MSN on what color are BOC's hair. Sometimes, they are red and sometimes, they are brown. So Earth posted it on the BOC subforum as a joke. Admit BOC's hair color are changing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think Fredd-E took it on for anything other than instant-karma, you're an idiot. Whaaat? I donated a little, and received a friendly personal response. Seemed aboveboard to me. Not that it matters to you in your eternal twirling vortex of sub-Orubasarot negativity. lol Really Mekon, why do you hang out on the BoC forum of all places? I don't think I see you in General Banter, which would seem the more suitable outlet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
