That's a shame. He was great in the 80s/early 90s. I wish they'd bring that show back.

"He attracted funds for Children with Leukaemia all through his life and is thought to have raised more than £100 million for all charities."

Kudos.

Indeed

The headline the Sun printed about his death disgusting, showing no respect for the man

Markgway · Post by **Markgway** » 01 Feb 2008, 19:41

Haven't seen this particular headline, but The Sun is written for morons.

What was it? All I can find from sun.co.uk is: "TV star Jeremy Beadle has died".

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 01 Feb 2008, 23:10

On the front page of the paper they had "Beadle's Not About" - disrespectful I think

Oh come on Grim. That's very respectful considering who he was and what he starred in. I bet he'd see the funny side.

I think it's a bit tacky.

And I think you need to rephrase that last sentence brad

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 02 Feb 2008, 01:48

It makes sense to me. The Sun aren't known for their articulation of the English language

Markgway · Post by **Markgway** » 02 Feb 2008, 22:41

Of course it's tacky. But then it's aimed at people like Brad so why be surprised?

That's a bit low isn't it?

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 03 Feb 2008, 01:59

Yes low. It does illustrate Mark's intellect well though.

Mark is probably still pissed because no else gave a shit about his Beverly Hills Cop vs. Lethal Weapon poll

No.

Which is obviously superior to yours... but then I doubt there's anyone on this forum whose intellect isn't...

Closing polls for no reason... secretly editing my posts... no, why would that bother me?? And FTR: a few people did vote until you made an executive decision to close the poll.

I've never secretly edited your posts. You'll need to blame someone else for that one, bud!

As to deleting your bollocks I did so as the conversation was going nowhere and we were just bickering like children. If you recall I deleted the entire conversation. Others don't need to read our bickering. I'd do it again. There was nothing of any other in it. I wonder why I've not had to delete any other members posts.

You do realise you'd have been banned long ago on most other forums? DVD Forums would've given you stacks of black marks and Imports Forum regularly delete posts that are just members ranting. And no I'm not saying anyone wants to ban you.

How mature still harping on about it when frankly it doesn't matter and as proven by the fact no one else moaned you only give a fuck. Even Romero knows when to drop it. It reminds me of when Tigercage got all high and mighty threatening that all Bullets members would get angry at me for him acting like a tosser when it turns out no one cared

. That backfired too.

Didn't you get black marks from DVD Forums? Maybe I would get banned elsewhere... but then I can't think of any other forum that would allow you to be a mod. You're as guilty as anyone for making inflamatory posts but like to think you're above it all. The only time you ever remove posts is when they make you look stupid. If someone else is in the wrong then you would leave them alone. Just because other posters don't make a public noise doesn't mean they appreciate your moderation. I just happen to be particularly vocal.

Yep. I then got my account banned

. Your point? Who said I was any better

You and some others blow well out of proportion the amount of moderating I actually do. I delete the odd post and move the odd thread. It's hardly a lot of moderating!

Here is an example of a thread over at Imports Forum, which goes much further:

There are loads of posts that make me look stupid I've left be

, there are just as many that make you look stupid. Your point?

Cooey used to post here. I wonder why he left?
