What happened with minion?
I see that that thread has been deleted and that he’s listed as banned.

Re: What happened with minion?
I looked at that thread last night. I only saw it once it had finished if you know what I mean. This thing about people signing up under other names? Is it common? How do people know? Why would you?

As pointed out in the thread he was a previous troll. Banned before as PerryJason, banned as Watcliff.

Re: What happened with minion?
He's taken the piss about Facebook users and people who read the news in the past - irritating but that's about it.
That thread was really bad taste. Glad he's banned if we're sure it was a windup.

Cheers. I went to bed before you posted on the thread. Wasn’t sure if he was being serious or on a wind up.

Re: What happened with minion?
Should be a sticky permanent on this board of how to Pm Admin or stick a link up as me and quite a few others could not work out how to message anybody at Admin in a Pm incase of emergency. Took me ages to work out how to send one.

Reporting the post would probably have been a good way in your case last night.

Re: What happened with minion?
I hope the guy is OK, but I lm sure I'd been had after he casual rejoined the thread 3 hours later and said he'd been just out walking his dog. Didn't sit right once I'd read what others had said later in the thread about him being a troll.

And chips pie
I didn’t think for 1 second he was serious. Very distasteful, especially bringing Sludge into it.

Re: What happened with minion?
I'd just opened a beer when I read the thread and was going to sit in front of the TV and have a few until I read what he posted, but then didn't drink incase he phoned me for my offer of a lift to take him to the hospital.

Re: What happened with minion?
How would you report a post? Nothing on page to link to report a post? It's not very user friendly this board

Re: What happened with minion?
It's the warning triangle on the bottom left of the post, next to Blog This Post.

That was good of you to put your number up mate. I don't think its a good idea in most cases but then it's not often you will get a nob pretending hes gonna do something like that. Just wanted to say that it shows the type of guy u are. good stuff mate.:thumbup:

Re: What happened with minion?
Also, need to say that unclebobs reaction to thinking someone was in need of help (and many others last night too) is what makes this a great forum.

Re: What happened with minion?
Spotted the thread half way through and watched it pan out.
Should be easy to spot if he turns up again, recognised him in his variois guises and he was definitely PerryJason, contradictory and provocative... but not in a clever way.
I do think the guy has issues.

Good bloke, Bob.

Re: What happened with minion?
I don't know why people bother. I have said plenty of stupid sh8t on here and looked through my fingers at it the next day. But posting things like that when people have opened up on similar issues is just a cont's trick. What is missing in your life to sit down of an evening and marvel at your lack of decency.

Re: What happened with minion?
I don't know why people were talking as if we are robots, all with the same outlook and minds. "If you're suicidal you don't publicise it". Maybe in your experience but you don't know other peoples circumstances. There isn't a rule book to depression & you can't ever understand what it is like in other peoples' universes/minds
It is like that weird opinion going around online currently about cutting your wrists:
"Side ways for attention - length ways for results"
Spoken by people completely content with their own life.
But if it is trolling it is the lowest ive ever seen online I think
he'll be back for the traditional "they'll be beating their wives tonight" thread when new zealand destroy us in the rugby

Re: What happened with minion?
Ironically, if that was a wind up last night, then he clearly has some sort of mental issue.

I think it's more likely that he's just a bit of a twat. It's been really noticeable that most posters have been completely ignoring his wind up attempts. The thread he started yesterday didn't surprise me one bit. Classic attention seeking internet troll.

I went for my wrists when I was very ill, got a nasty scar but thankfully it didn't work

I think he's got some kind of personality disorder or BPD as the experts call it , hope he seeks help as he clearly needs it

Re: What happened with minion?
From what I saw of the thread last night, it brought out the absolute best in people. From offering advice, sharing experiences to actual jump in the car help.
Some of you guys made me proud to be associated with you.
I hope that Minion WAS on a wind up because obviously nobody wants to see anyone take their own life, but at the same time, assuming it was a wind up, then he disgusts me.
Not so much for trivialising such a serious issue, but for exploiting other people’s genuine desire to help and for introducing the risk that at some point an all to real cry for help might not be taken at face value next time.
Again, assuming it was all a wind up, in my opinion the most low-life disgrace of a poster this board has ever seen.

I know a few people with scars and they don't bother to cover them up any more. The shame leaves after a while and it is just symbolical of their improvement

Re: What happened with minion?
I'm Still not 100% sure it was a wind up?
Not on here as much as I used to be so not sure of the characters on here anymore. Would somebody really post something as harrowing as that if they didn't mean it and were crying out for help?
Im not sure?
Not knowing who he is or anything about his previous form on this message board I would rather that it was a wind up rather than the thread was deleted and he has nowhere to turn now if he really was desperate
