PR looks like it has finally kicked the bucket

[ASMO]

I wouldn't use F365 members views of rugby as being a benchmark of anything to be honest.

Well, Toga and JPB have affirmed their view over the last few weeks. Even Keith, bless him, registered there as "White Ranker".

I refer you back to my previous post, if people take those characters as being representative of the wider rugby community that says more about them than us.

[Muttonbird]

Blindcider wasn’t sacked.

I’m glad you find F365 so welcoming and enjoyable. I wish you happiness with a long posting future there and bid you farewell.

Mong.

See, that's what I'm talking about.

[Thommo]

If you look at the history of PR Comets isn't far wrong.

Isn't far wrong about what?

About the history of moderation. I have said it has improved in the last two years since Blindcider and Openside were sacked. Let's hope that trend continues.

Blindcider was sacked?

Blindcider was sacked?

Rhetorical question, I assume.

That said, was it Blindcider or SASP that stepped down?

[Muttonbird]

Blindcider was sacked?

I remember he had a massive sob story about how he didn't want to be a moderator, claimed he'd retired, but then continued to troll and ban people nevertheless.

[Guy Smiley]

Blindcider stepped aside from moderating. It’s no big secret, he was quite open about it.

Mong... tard.

How does on put fuckwits like Muttonbird on ignore on this sweet new forum?

If you look at the history of PR Comets isn't far wrong.

If you look at the heart of PR, the Home Unions are dominant in terms of posters and moderators. In Britain the game is (or was) for the elite and they are mostly white and conservative.

I've been amazed at the contrast between PR and F365. At F365 they are fully aware of the rugby demographic in Britain. A bunch of privileged Eton boys chasing eggs and playing soggy biscuit 24/7 is their view of rugby.

There are a few PR posters who have been very active at F365 and haven't done much to change this view. Toga and JPB at the front.

There has been a welcome shift at PR over the last two or three years though with decent people holding RWNJs to account and it is their behaviour which is now on the outer. This is also seen in the wider culture wars, which are slowly being won by the socially conscious left.

Long may that continue.

Do us all a favour and fuck off there then.

[Enzedder]

As far as "retiring" from being a mod on PR goes, those who voluntarily stopped doing it were Newbie when we were logging in as PR (but then he "hired" Jake and I so he done good); Sefton, Openside, Blindcider, SASP and me (I hope I haven't left anyone out). There have been a couple from the Yank time zone who I had repeatedly tried to get them to volunteer but they wouldn't.

I guess that made them perfect for the job.

For the last 6 or 7 years I have just done an admin role (password and name changes, weeding out spammers, Toga and Mitty). My claim to fame (like those who nominated Supreme Court judges) is that none of the people who I touted for the role have left.

Nah Enz, your claim to fame is that you once banned a whole country.

That was so hilarious. Kovana had a breakdown of some kind (or I had really pissed him off) and the only way to stop him being stupid was to ban his IP as he had built up multiple logins - turns out the whole freaking island is routed through that IP address.

If I was going to have a headstone, that would be on it.

It should be, since it's no small thing.

Since I can't just like this post I'll quote it! Brilliant!

ASMO as a 'nothing' poster from the old bored thank you for creating this new forum.

Would really miss the community/posters/discussion if the old bored just died a death.

Cheers

Was Jerpy ever a Mod?

Jrp was a mod.

Of course he was, why are you bothering to ask? I joined in 2005 and jrp67 was a mod at the time. Sefton and him were the big dogs and mods of the forum.

[Mahoney]

Most people didn't know jrp was a mod; he never mentioned it, and his moderation never attracted suspicion. As I recall it only became public knowledge after he decided to stop being one.

[stemoc]

wasn't coog and AC mods at one point in time?.. not sure about Quentin though.. nobody right is ever made mod there so that was the issue with the bored, the criteria for selection were old farts and those with their head up their arse..

Coog and I were never mods. Given you've made complaints about the PR mods on this thread, it might be a good idea to get a firm grasp of which posters you are complaining about.

Why do you make this shit up? Everyone else can see through it straight away and you end up looking like some sad flog that has no life outside of jerking off in front of a monitor.

Wow! So much of this is factually wrong. The Welsh posters are certainly not privileged and conservative. The English posters are mostly left leaning, with the "working class Essex" bunch who are the most vocal conservative supporters. And that is a trend in the past few years, most old school PR English posters are clearly left wing or centralist.

Nah, for years jrp and sefton were accused of being secret mods before they were officially outed. There were far to many convent actions taken in their favour, despite their behaviour in any given argument. It was obvious.

Hang on a second there old chap, I am so privileged and entitled that I have a flunkey type responses on my behalf , I make IS look like a Sun reader.

Correct, which makes us the best posters around. We're the right sort

If you remember that's how it was back then though. None of the Mods weren't known. That changed a decade or so ago.

[Insane_Homer]

50+ hours and counting, who could've predicted that!

[sefton]

I resigned after Enz threatened to take me out back for a beat down.

I resigned after Enz threatened to take me out back for a beat down.

No, I think he threatened to take you from the back and beat you off, your memory was never the best

That wouldn’t have me resigning, that was our performance related benefit.
