The Worst Posters in P&B History (2017 Edition)

[Bert Raccoon]

The tits that seem to post purely in the politics forum should've been excluded from this poll. Far too many non-entities.

If there are 23 worse posters than Mucky then the board's fucked and the poll's fucked.  That you've had 2 replies in 2 hours indicates this.

Put this pathetic mess down humanely and simply list the posters from 23 to Bennett and let's be done with it.

Hic!

I think it’s getting better now because I know the posters involved instead of them being utter nobodies.

It doesn’t take any bottle to slaughter McSpreader, progressive liberal or the other minority of posters who go against the grain and don’t conform to the narrow board consensus. Just hope MS is as bold and personal when/if it is anyone who retains any popularity with the rest of the board.

I don't think anyone voted for them thinking "what a lot of bottle I've shown". They just saw a twat and named them.

There's nothing inherently worthy about railing against a consensus. If some quarterwit says there's no gravity or that apartheid wasn't all that bad they get the pish ripped out of them. Rightly. You only defend such instances because you perceive them as a thorn in the side of some imaginary liberal bogeyman that the rest of us supposedly represent.

And, lest we forget, if the consensus here n P&B is as "narrow" as you'd have it, then it's presumably not representative of wider society as a whole, and by your own standards you should be lauding us for not being the Sun & Daily Mail-reading mouth-breathers that get elections won in the UK.

I look forward to receiving your plaudits.

there is some merit in going against the consensus, going against no gravity or apartheid as you used as examples would be stupid but going against independence is another example, one that split the country and had experts in many different areas disagreeing. as brexit has shown, most economists had a massive loss of jobs after brexit and more immediate effects on the economy (it looks like they will be right but at a slower pace!) no-one really knows the effects and so you could legitimately argue against the consensus.

although with the names involved in this thread, arguing against the consensus does tend to be just a thin veil covering their bigotry!

Christ on a moped.

replying to a post, I said arguing against independence has merit as there is doubt and two sides to the argument but arguing against something like the theory of gravity is plain stupid so what's wrong with what I said? the consensus on here is a large majority for independence, the result was 45% to 55% so definitely a split in the country and there were experts both pro and anti independence!

Has anyone noticed how those guaranteed to be among the highest ranking in this list are the most frequent, the most vocal in decrying it?

Similarly, it's apparently getting better because we're getting closer to a certain someone's inclusion. Spoiler alert: We're still nowhere near him.

At 23rd with 14 points and 1 first place vote is someone very, very familiar to this thread already.
 

"comes across as a boorish, pompous, tartan clad thicko"

"Basically yer da on the football forum. A lesser Grimbo."

"I'm a Thistle & Scotland fan and pro Scottish independence. So is this guy, so we should be good, right? Wrong. A petty nationalistic simpleton who by his posts on this thread is dying to be involved, so let's make his wish come true."

"Basically same reasons as Fide, but without the beating cancer bit. Would happily risk the Scottish parliament in an "all or nothing" vote for independence."

I was recently appalled to learn that this poster is a grown man with children. The start of my time on P&B saw a fevered summer with the independence referendum coming up and truly there have been none as counter-productive to that particular cause as @John Lambies Doos. Everything comes back to that one fact, no matter the subject. Either that or Scotland. Anything that's Scottish gets his support, anything vaguely anti-independence gets his scorn.

I'd say it's hard for me to criticise him compared to other entrants given his sentiments are in completely the right place on the subject, but it isn't, purely owing to how boring, repetitive and thick he actually sounds. Anyone who's fond of the word "fukn" on the internet is obviously a simpleton, to see it employed so consistently on a single issue really compounds the issue.

Maybe his heart is in the right place, but his usual posts on P&B are barely worth reading and his performance on this thread absolutely justifies his inclusion. That picture above is the first result when you google "yer da," and really, get yer da aff the internet, he's making a tit of himself again. Rather than a specific incident or incidents JLD is a prime example of someone who is all bad, all the time. I'm sure John Lambie and his pigeons would be appalled.

Yeah, the thread which saw him banned for it genuinely had about five or six pages of nothing but post after post of arguments proving Wisbit was wrong, at which point he would move the goalposts and spout another baseless piece of nonsense to support his fucking mental opinions. I think the line that finally made the mods step in with the banhammer was "the Allies had to come up with something to demonise Hitler".

He actually managed to unite the Zionists and Anti-Zionists on that thread.

Tied at 25th with 11 points and 1 first place votes we have two posters. Up first, an extension on the theme of Lex. I wrote about how I was misled by Lex's apparent character witness suggestion of him being a quality poster with worthwhile opinions. My first encounter of this poster, who returned about two years ago after a hiatus. Allegedly at Her Majest's pleasure, but I can't comment on that. Anyhoo, the first time I saw this poster commenting on a thread he was welcomed back by none other than The_Kincardine, who lamented his absence. Now, if that doesn't stand up as a symbol of impending doom, what does?
Only the one quote:
"Would find extenuating circumstances to defend Pol Pot for committing genocide on 3m Cambodians if he were a Celtic player. Even used pictures of dead Palestinian children in a match thread. (I remain convinced this is a Seamus alias so will change if confirmed)"
Yes, that is an actual thing which happened. During last year's Champions League qualifier between Celtic and Hapoel Beer-Sheva, in defence of the Celtic support's display of Palestinian flags, this poster posted actual picures of actual dead children. If I recall correctly he wasn't even banned instantly after this, somehow. This is someone who appeared to be a grown man, at least in his thirties. [mention=1846]Davie Bhoy[/mention] was fond of derailing threads whenever one of the diddied had the temerity to point out how intellectually bankrupt his posts were, all the while complaining about others going off-topic, but it's for one incident he is quite rightly remembered and forgotten.
 

DavieBhigot was an abomination of a poster.

Was it not Dundee fans who eventually got him emptied out of P&B?
