NotThePars Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Did beastgate happen in the wasteland?No, I don’t think so. I only remember the broad strokes though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A thread was made that was called "the beast chat" IIRC by Nizzy saying cut it out then a few folk obviously kept going, the famous "keep pushing" line was dropped then all hell broke loose. Banhammers going wild. I cant remember which chat had gone too far to provoke the thread though. At that time, pre "OFTW" I was called a beast for using too much washing up liquid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest_Man#1 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I also got the “wrap it” PM from Nizzy. It really was poor the mod protection of beasts at that time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it not Tedi that was bearing the brunt of that chat? Think I mind people blaming him for half the people getting punted. More posters should’ve linked to a Phoenix Nights clip to have some cover, IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the problem came when instead of calling folk a b***t, folk started referring to others as "a Tedi" now that you mention it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamamafegan Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 What about ‘The Arch’? I remember trying to run a campaign for him to be made a mod. I’m not sure there’s a greater honour than to be selected as a global moderator on Pie and Bovril. The Arch! Good times. Was/is he not a journo for the Daily Record or something? Wonder if I can tag him[mention=41669]The Arch[/mention] Doesn’t look like it’s working - oh well here he is 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamamafegan Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Someone should start a thread about long lost P&B posters. We can tag them all and see if any of them come back to say hello. Just imagine some person going about their business - someone who hasn’t been on Pie & Bovril for ages, it’s a distant memory for them - and then all of a sudden they see an email notification “*insert poster* tagged you in a comment.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romeo Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Nizzy once sent me a private message saying 'wrap it', after I compared the moderator cover up on the beast thread to the 1980's BBC. I'm not entirely sure who the rest of them (the mods) are. I was the person he told to "keep pushing", he also sent a few PM's to me too.Absolute bampot of a guy, was close to a breakdown I think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derry Alli Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 That gif was and still is, without doubt, the greatest thing this forum has ever known. I still laugh now watching it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I've only ever had one warning point - from [mention=30230]Tynierose[/mention] - and I deserved it - he is the best mod - just for binning that Chairman Mao dickhead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I've had a couple of temp bans. Probably because I'm an abusive c**t and deserved them. And Tynie at least tells you why he's doing it. He's easily the best mod on here. It's a thankless task at the best of times. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonksy+HisChristianParade Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Hardly think it’s a thankless task. The prestige of being global moderator on a forum such as Pie and Bovril should be thanks enough tbh. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
