FAO:- All N00bs.

If you have made a post (or several) that makes you look like a 'tard. Or if you have been spamming like there is no tomorrow and now feel some strange urge to absolve yourself of blame, just bare in mind we have heard all these excuses before and they won't work:-

1. My Mate/Brother/Sister/Mum/Dad/Aunt/Uncle/Saddam Hussain were logged in on my account.

Sure, right you expect us to believe that? Why would you let someone log in on your account and make you look stupid? Other variations of this include explaining why you let them log in as you such as 'We share an account'. Why? Why would you share an account? They are free Chav-boy.

2. I was drunk.

Do you often find that you get drunk whilst in front of your PC? No. No-one does, we go out and get drunk. Why would anyone feel the need to be on the internet whilst drunk. Rubbish.

3. I was just.

Several ends to this one all wioth the same point, usually things like 'seeing if there was a limit to how much I could post in a day/week/month/year/lifetime. If there was, you would have been told when you signed up.

Rant Over.

Thankyou.

Whilst I agree, I'd just like to point out that my anal sex thread was due to the effects of coming back home drunk and coming on here. Only time though...

so true, i leave my computer on pretty much all the time, after spending a couple of hours walking home via peoples houses and the kebab shop mission. you come in to find your mp3's are still playing and checking you emails and bbc sport (just in case there has been major transfer activity at 4am lol!) seems like a good idea. and you send a few random emails and never remember exactly what, yet when they reply you find to your shock and horror that depite having drunk your weekly recommended booze limit in one night, you actually made some sense and your typing was better than usual!

oh and getting the cheap drinks in before you go out, (ie the asda savers botle of wine before a club) would also be a prime source of drunken student posting.

When you're drunk, checking your email at 3 in the morning, then having a browse on the internet seems like a good idea. But only when the PC is already on.

Good grief - what brought that on?

With regard to being drunk on here. I have been here drunk (obviously on very rare occasions :D) mainly because I've still been hyper from the club and decide at 3.00 am that it would be a good idea to check my email. It always occurs to me the next day when I go eh!? that it was a bad idea but I never remember that at 3 in the morning.
