It's Ours For Keeps
Look Mods. You know me, I'm not one to complain...and possess the friendly nature of a summers day by the river....with birds sweeting as they go about their busy existence.

But why do we have to see what the newbie cretins are feckin talking rubbish about? If I check the "new posts" tab, I want to see what proper, normal....certified ok posters are posting...not some pleb asking whether it would be wise to cash in on Keane??

Come on fellas...make it so

They don't know how to do it until Niall gets back, so like it or lump it, take it or leave it, you're stuck with it.

I might have done it.

But you specified "fellas".

We do, it's just too much trouble. :p

Should be gone now Davo, is that better.

You finally got the manual out this afternoon didn't you? :lol:

Nah, in kicking out all the scouse WUMs a few weeks back the default settings went to cock so that everyone could see the Newbie and some banned posters could still post. We can reset everyones access screens individually quite easily so that say you can post in the Newbie, Davo can no longer see it or Melvin can be banned from the General forum but we're not about to start doing that for 9000 odd users (emphasis on the odd in most cases ;) )

Things should return to normal once Niall upgrades the software in the summer so we're trying to avoid tinkering with the settings and risking even stranger results in the mean time.
 
As for the manual, that's staying where it is. The last time someone had that out, the table went all wobbly and we ended up with Yaps' coffee all over the staff room :p

Nice one Bury...

And no offence Livvie, I always think of you as one of the lads..;)

Hmmmm. Probably because you are convinced I have beer gut and stubble.

This "hujaj" with 250 posts and still in the newbie...that's fcuking rad!! You mods should be commended. Or at least, commandeered.

Is there a way to just kind of leave him there and see if he can make it to 1 million or something? Please?

i reckon its ACE's best mate (for those that remember ACE from the transfer forum..he camped in there all day and never went to any other forum)
