If You hate Conor McGregor - Watch This Short Vid
Re: If You hate Conor McGregor - Watch This Short Vid
Ive heard stories of Floyd doing a lot of good too so he ain't even all that bad. He's just a product of the environment he grew up in. Both of these are 'council estate' boys done good through their own dedication.

I didn't set up a rival forum. I've banned virtually nobody, and rarely threaten to ban anybody. I was doing so in this case because he kept posting the same thing over and over. You're probably right that it's something I should do via PM.dave_smith wrote:Surely threatening banning or discussing the issues are best done over PM. Threatening banning posters on threads (I think you've done it a few times although I could be wrong) doesn't make you come across that well and it's not something I've seen The Law, Poncey, Eddie etc ever do. Only really you and Anton.gilgamesh wrote:This makes 3 times you've posted that stupid ass video that's not worth watching. If you do it again I'm gonna give you a temporary vacation.
Was it you that set up the rival forum and took a load of posters across but loads came back as people started getting warned and banned and when challenged the fella that started it more or less said it's my forum and I'll do what I want too?

Put your enviable power to good use and ban that goon who refers to Haye as Daffy Duck about 300 times a month instead.Jumped up little mods are just wannabees whose only power in their sad empty unfulfilled lives comes from stopping normal people discussing things on the internet. In this thread Gilgamesh has conformed to that stereotype.
That said this thread was probably a more entertaining contest than the actual fight is gonna be.![]()

You didn't ban him because you had no grounds to do so. Maybe you just woke up with a bee in your bonnet - it happens.gilgamesh wrote: If I was pushing my weight around I'd have banned him. I didn't, and I didn't.
Re: If You hate Conor McGregor - Watch This Short Vid
If you'd like people posting the same video multiple times, and flooding the forum with meaningless duplicate posts fine. I've barely banned anybody, and I don't make a habit of threatening to ban people.CaptainSpacerod wrote:You didn't ban him because you had no grounds to do so.

I was in a fine mood. I was just trying to moderate the damn forum and keep duplicate posts from popping up all the over the place. Especially when it was a duplicate post of a stupid video that sucked in the first place.

Re: If You hate Conor McGregor - Watch This Short Vid
It's a real conundrum this because despite all of Floyd's much publicized despicable behaviour he's probably done more good through charity donations and giving his time to various charities than most of us will ever even come close to doing.SAPFO wrote:Ive heard stories of Floyd doing a lot of good too so he ain't even all that bad.

Does brightening sick childrens' days by visiting them in hospital cancel out beating up hookers and girlfriends ? Who can say, like i said it's a tricky one.

Re: If You hate Conor McGregor - Watch This Short Vid
You've got to be consistent though. Personally I don't think posting a video 3 times constitutes flooding the forum. Like I said before, deal with the daffy duck idiot who comes out with the saame shite time after time before dealing with well meaning posters like the OP.gilgamesh wrote: If you'd like people posting the same video multiple times, and flooding the forum with meaningless duplicate posts fine.

I deal with what I see when I see it. I don't even know what you're talking about with the Daffy Duck thing.CaptainSpacerod wrote:You've got to be consistent though.

We'll have to agree to disagree - no damage done. My apologies if I was too quick to criticize you.gilgamesh wrote: I deal with what I see when I see it. I don't even know what you're talking about with the Daffy Duck thing.
With regard to Daffy Duck, some clown called "asdfjkl" constantly disparages Haye and for some unknown reason refers to him as Daffy Duck. There was a whole thread about it a couple of days ago. Admittedly I'm a Haye fanboy but I think the general consensus on the forum is that this kid oversteps the mark.

Can't stand David Haye though

No worries. Like I said you're a respected poster and I didn't want your credibility tarnished with something that could be sorted over PM.gilgamesh wrote:I didn't set up a rival forum.

Personally I liked the video!

Why dont the two of you get a room and tickle it out under the covers?SAPFO wrote:One was a video of the Diaz vs McGregor fight, you didn't delete that did you? It was relevant to the threads hence I posted it before thinking to myself it was best in its own thread for all to see.
Im a boxing fan, then an MMA fan. There is a lot of animosity shown towards McGregor on here understandably, so to a degree I am fighting his corner a little, as he's actually a decent fella if you scratch below the surface, especially watching that video rathe than just dismissing it was irrelevant because he has no chance against Floyd. He's an elite level MMA fighter, and for that he gets my respect. But yes, he's bringing a tennis racket to a gun fight
Maybe film the scene, then post the clip on here.... just the once though.
