Clarification..........I hope

Sorry guys, I am a bit late getting back to this thread. :o

Gary's original post of the "Micrasaft Windies" desktop was made at 11-30 last night.

There were no replies to the post until this morning, when Padge and maybe Kyle saw a different image.

When I logged on this morning, as I do from work throughout the day, I saw the NWS image. It was indeed a picture of a naked man, with his penis in his hand.

Since I had seen the original post I knew that somehow the link had been corrupted, so I deleted it immediately.

In no way was I "Modding" Tuned In.

I "Modded" the image as it was neither family nor work safe and could not be allowed to remain on the site. There are two moderators in this forum, Gary and I, so what one misses the other catches.

I just happened to catch this one before Gary and rightly, in my opinion, deleted it right away.

SB, I am sure that the image I deleted was in no way directed at you.

For those that are not aware, I perhaps, naively on my part made a suggestion, for what I thought was the betterment and advancement of the forum and mentioned a perceived dirty word, ‘Northern Ireland’, sometime ago. For that I received some unnecessary and unwarranted criticism, the legacy of which still remains today, as you can see.
......I will leave you therefore too enjoy your Ireland forum. :(

That's a bit unfair. I thought that that discussion was handled very delicately at the time and that the concensus was that the majority wanted to keep it as an Ireland forum. It seems that what you perceive on this site from time to time is not what I perceive.

This is the thread you are talking about and again, it seems that you are looking at things in a different perspective. A few people commented on that thread too that you were taking things too seriously/personally and I can't see anywhere where NI was perceived as a dirty word.
 
Schwarz Baron said:
I would just like to state categorically, that I am not and have not ever been or ever will be associated with any Loyalist.or paramilitary organisation, as this post seems to imply, whether Mr Tuned In, meant it to be or not. I am deeply offended by the contents of this post, and even in this day and age, it is still dangerous and loose talk, as there are those out there that are daft enough to come to certain conclusions, and draw certain inferences from same.


Sorry I can't see how in any shape or form can you get i associate you with any paramilitary connections from that post?

The items contained in the Windies NI desktop are what a lot of people would in general associate with NI and that's what makes the thing funny.


The balaclava was the only item that could have been maybe construed as anyway paramilitary but then again i've seen Police in the past wear them too when in riot gear :D

Why with the pictures in the post did you not think i was implying...

you are a police officer..... there is a police car in the pic :nenau

you are a binman..... there is a wheelie bin in the pic :nenau

you are a Football fan..... a NI football emblem in the pic :nenau

you are a rugby fan and god knows the amount of what else that uses the red hand as a emblem that's in the pic

The topic was Micrasaft Windies NI desktop

posted as humour towards your "campaign" to reinstate the NI forum.... it was also posted in the Ireland section as people would know the score and see it for what it is..... Funny

Schwarz Baron said:
I am also unsettled by the fact that another moderator, has had to step in and edit a fellow mods post.

Why? Aidan modded the posts.... it was because the original link i posted had changed / redirected to some other rude pic (i had refreshed the page prior to posting to make sure it was the Windies screen saver which it still was)...the site the pic of the screensaver was on redirected the link to the rude pic for some reason... which i never even got to see but was unsuitable for the site and Aidan rightly removed the link as i would have done myself if i had spotted it. As i said the other image was not of my doing but that of the site i linked the desktop pic from. I went in later and edited my first post... I attached the Windies image instead of linking it

Schwarz Baron said:
I will state once again, that politics is not my game, I am not interested, and want no part of it, for I am not comfortable with it.
Since you brought the subject up.... it was you that spoke to me on the phone or skype about losing your Ulster identity and complained about the Gaelic being written in the forum it was shortly after that you started the campaign for the reinstatement of the NI section. People made it clear that most wanted the place to stay as a whole all Ireland forum .
Since then you haven't seemed happy in here... you've joined the club and have been trying actively to recruit members. Sounds a tad like politics to me :nenau

You have also IMO tried to undermined the Ireland forum with the likes of bringing up your perceived sectarianism issue of this thread where none existed.... most people will clearly see what the thread is... funny... until you decided to make an issue out of it ( If we in Ireland can't have a laugh at ourselves who can?)


Schwarz Baron said:
Also when I first viewed it, there was also a picture of a naked man with his cock in his hand, I did not get the chance to read this as it was deleted almost immediately. I have no idea if it refereed to me or not.

sounds strange to me :mmmm if you seen it it would have been there and you could have read any text contained, it can't get deleted once you have the page up in front of you :nenau but yet again if you did see it (maybe my info is wrong i had you down as not viewing the thread till after Aidan's edit) It was not of my doing but that of the site i linked the picture of Windies NI from.

There was no other text in my post apart from two :D :D one at the beginning and one at the end of the pic of the Windies NI desktop.


At the end of the day it appears you wished to raise or start an issue/problem where none in my view really existed... maybe this is part of your recruitment drive for the club by trying to undermine and cause derision here and maybe getting a NI section on the club and you to a Mod status :nenau I don't know... but I do know that i find it strange that someone who lives in NI can be so
deeply offended by the contents of this post
When we live in NI we should know the score about such things. ( i would hardly think every person that ever got sent that pic or the i-prod pic that has also done the rounds immediately thinks you are calling them loyalists or terrorists so i can't see why you would jump to that conclusion)

I posted the Windies NI pic as a humorous post nothing else... i think you'll find most people will see the post for what it was and if they can't they should maybe take follow the advice you give on your signature...

Really I do not mean to offend, :D So go do one, sir
 
Tuned, I do not need lectured by you, I have told you what I read into the post of the desktop, and I have also stated that on it's own is humourous. On this occassion I did not appreciate it. No one will tell me what is or is not funny. What is wrong with having a campaign on this forum, I see no harm.
As regards the gealic, speak away my friend, that was a private conversation with you, yes I am from Ulster and proud of it, so what, but why does it have to have a political tag. Now I know when I have an issue, and a private conversation where it will end up. The issue that I was not happy with related to the thread titled the Dirty dog., nothing to do with the 'NI forum 'issue, it was to do with bikes, and not as you assume, Thats why I stopped posting here..

What is wrong with actively recruiting on another forum, I'm sure you do not contribute to only one, who am I undermining?, what a load of bollocks. The day i undermine this forum, is a long way off. I have actively recruited plenty here, and made many worth while contributions, I will continue to do so for both forums. I stated I appeared to be the only one that read into this post more than may have been intended, but I will not apologise for being an individual.
Yes I did see the picture of a naked man but I was more interested as to what was at the top of the thread, when I read down the picture had gone, and was unable to read it.
As for being Moderator, wise up, I have never have and never want to be a moderator. I have expressed that opinion to judge on the other forum as well, for your information, but by the sounds of things you already know quiet a bit about my activities over there. Do not worry your little ivory tower is safe, as far as I am concerned. Plainly not interested..its a pity you feel the need to throw other unconnected instances into the ring to justify your position.

Again I reserve the right to disagree with anyone on here, and feel the need to say so if necessary, and I also expect to face criticism for it, along with personal insults. But undermining the forum or anyones position come off it!

And the topic was not Micrasaft Windies

It was Schwarz, Not an NI forum but a compromise
 
Paul you may say what you want... But my post stands and i made it clear my intenstions with that post anything else you read into it is in your own mind .....I think others can and will make there own minds up too

And as regards privite conversations you were the first to break that trust when you asked me late one evening about if some people had the same IP address i told you i was a bit reluctant to give the information out.. but i did. I also told you the answer in confidence and told you not to pass the info on to anyone... but i found the next morning you had PM'ed a load of people divulging just that info.

I also found our conversation about Ulster and Gaelic quite relevant in this topic as they differed IMO from the tone of your reply in post.

As for that issue it was explained and explained quite well and clearly that I had no doing or influence over the nude picture it was a redirected link that i had no Knowledge or control over... but was controlled by the site that the link was based. And as soon as Aidan seen it he removed it as i said i would have also... i also pointed out i tested the link first before i posted it and it appeared fine with the Windies NI. So really this is a non issue unless you think i did this deliberately which i clearly have stated I did not do.

Also it is not possible for the above quote to have happened on this site.... if you have loaded a page all the images and text stay there nothing can then disappear while you are viewing that same page... ask anyone who knows a bit about this sort of thing.

And the title of the thread was Schwarz, Not an NI forum but a compromise
but the Topic was Micrasaft Windies NI

otherwise To Kill a Mockingbird would be a very different book :D
 
NI Forum

I can see exactly where the Baron is coming from. The 'Windies' may well be amusing on it's own (I think it is) but I think the Baron is annoyed that it looks as if he wanted an NI forum for different reasons than he actually did.

I think the key is in the Thread Title in that it makes reference to his name. Having met the Baron before but not knowing him very closely the 'windies' post would lead you to believe he was of one of our 2 (i know there's more!) religions which perhaps he doesnt see the need to thrust in peoples faces on this 'equal' website.

I think the thread should be removed / closed due to the fact it is directed at the Baron and he has expressed his displeasure IMO.

We're here to talk about bikes and shite not this shite.

Bazza.

Hold on a mo.... my first post was as i said it was, nothing more nothing less than poke a bit of fun at SB... when i first seen the pic i laughed out loud.
Nothing was meant or implied by my first post other than a laugh....

I can't see how by saying "Schwarz, no NI forum but i got a compromise " you can tell from all that you have stated in your post.

Of course the key to the thread is in the title... that's what made it funny

it would not have had the same impact if i had posted something like" hey Ogmios.. got a new screensaver for you" or "hey Sugarcube no NI forum but i got a compromise"

The key and connection to making it funnier was the point that SB had campaigning for the return of NI forum under his Avatar until very recently and the pic depicted something humorous that was based around NI

It is the first post and only the first post you should consider IMO all subsequent replies are a secondary issue each brought on and replied to by the previous posts to them and the points raised within them.
You should be looking at the first post taking and make of it what you will before then being influenced by posts after that as these start to take and shape the initial post out of context.
 
And ! on a Lighter Note ?

Nice one Tooned.

Now could you explain the Tonto Papadopoulis joke for me? :nenau I've been scratching me head for ages.
 
A businessman boards a flight and is seated next to a gorgeous
woman.
He notices she is reading a manual about sexual statistics.

He asks her about it and she replies, "This is a very
interesting
book. It says that American Indians have the longest penises
and
Greek
men are the best in bed. By the way, my name is Jill. What's
yours?"

"Tonto Papadopoulos, nice to meet you."


it means you should be well hung :D
 
ffs wind your knecks in

ps instead keep it up makes a change you aint jumping on me or allroad :beerjug:

Well said BARRY CRAIG. I'll just add that the moderator who caused this shite by starting this thread should also be removed.
 
Gentlemen, I am going to close this thread as has been suggested by a couple of people.

Should anyone differ in opinion, PM me and I will reconsider re-opening it, but for now I believe it has gone as far as it can without descending any further into a slagging match.

Aidan
 
I must unconditionally offer my apologies to Schwarz Baron i got part of one of my posts wrong, i said
i found the next morning you had PM'ed a load of people divulging just that info.
When in fact it was passed on to one person who then sent the PM's to the rest
For getting that wrong i apologise
