With her imminent demise, this is the thread to celebrate / commiserate the end of BBC 606. She may have been a bitch at times and wrapped our knuckles, thrown us out for the slightest violation of her house rules. At times she was endlessly frustrating, but we all came back to her warm bosom in the end. Love her or hate her, you can't deny that she had a big impact on us. Now her Bastard children take up the mantle, what lasting memories will endure of Aunty?
Being banned 50+ times. Having every post that wasn't exclusively about football removed. Being banned from the Dumbarton Arms. Getting EDGE banned then banned again
shut up you ****ing big ****ter. 606 was gash from day 1. bbc fan's forum on the other hand was good and the "beeb" ****ing wrecked it
"Stevie Me tickles the mods balls"....a thread that went up in lunchtime and lasted for around two hours...Utd, Chelsea and Arsenal fans pissing about before the mods took it down after around 150 posts...I was nearly sacked for sitting at my desk pissing myself instead of working!
I got fed up with my posts being removed for no apparent reason. You don't mind so much when you can see why a post has been removed, even if you don't necessarily agree with it, but sometimes I had no clue at all what possible rule could have been broken.
Dundee Donny's internet blow outs rages. Being accused of having mulitple accounts. Mowbray day on 606. My Follow Follow Thread that took me about 2 hours to do http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/606/A74228411
My pub threads. Mr H's big dilemma and my Rangers board 'Black Power Ranger' article which last 10 minutes.
Thread called 'Spurs were not the original Hotspur' which went on for almost 1500 comments before some arsey mod zapped it. It simply pointed out that Hotspur FC pre dated Tottenham Hotspur, but turned into an all out war with the Yid lynch mob out to try and prove me wrong - eventually THFC's own official historian Andy Porter got involved and proved the yids wrong, but they still wouldn't have it. Was a good example of one of those '****ing leave it alone' threads .......
....that and waiting until 5 seconds until 11pm to try and get the last comment in (don't ****ing deny it, we all did it)
I used to wander over to different message boards for a laugh, got banned from all of the religion forums for asking "which is the best goth band, the Sisters or the Nephilim?" in the pagan forum. Managed to get a member of the vegetarian forum so upset due to my over-zealous hardcore vegan pretence that she threatened to "eat meat just to spite me". Afternoons at work used to fly by.
