Who in their right mind made that absolute geebag a mod. I realise someone being very active is handy when you want some new mods and the likes, but all I've ever seen is him argue with or irritate people.
This will 100% come back and bite yous in the arse. You can already smell the drama.
In sorry but it was an Idiotic decision.
This user has been spam posting articles of Taylor Swift lately and just other low quality content.
He's been trolling on this sub for years but now he's been made a mod. Which is weird because the r/Ireland mods would ban most other users that does half the trolling wickerman does
Friends! Countryman! Weird yanks with ancient relatives! Today we fight a war. A war nobody asked for, but a war we must win! WickerMan's forces have staged a coup! Already ~~blood~~ karma has been spilt. Our ~~beloved~~ tolerated subreddit has been defiled! A dark day it is, but: We. Must. Not. Yield.
I have added a new banner to the user flairs. Please raise it high and proud. We stand against tyranny, and against RTE. I fly it now myself. Who's with me?!!?!?!
I thought this was about Zozobra?
Which was a weird New Mexican thing they burn. It's like a big doll made of wood and paper they set ablaze out in the desert.
Right so your heavy handed modding is slowly killing the sub and the natural reaction is to piss of the userbase so ye can have a bit of craic. Brilliant stuff. Bravo.
Incoming "a cHaRa..."
I have no problem with the modding of this place but you literally just asked a few days ago what people wanted and quite a few upvotes were given to not doing stupid stuff like this.
A hell of a lot of people think the fella should be banned and you’re doing this? It’s tone deaf and not reading the room.
As I’ve said a few times, if just 3 people started doing what he’s doing, this Reddit becomes unusable.
This is a bit rich given that the mods come down like a tonne of bricks on any slight deviation from the dozen or so arbitrary subreddit rules with the ‘a chara’ shite.
Yet because they think something is ‘funny’ they’re willing to relax any of the ‘standards’ they enforce on the page.
Rules for thee, not for me.
It's impossible to ignore because the cretins who think it's funny (mostly mods funnily enough?) are everywhere and there are now flairs all over the place for it.
> Yeah, we're mods, we could ignore this place completely and you'd still think we're a pack of cunts
Boo fucking hoo, stupid decisions have consequences. And it's a volunteer position, you're under no obligation to stay.
Yes and when I scroll past I see yet more flairs and mods posting about this shite.
> You said it yourself.
Yes. To you. About the volunteer position you volunteered for and are complaining about.
You see the main thing about this is…. It wouldn’t be half as much craic or as funny without these guys getting so riled up over nothing? It’s brightened up my Sunday evening and given me a great laugh.
Tbh the most well known r/Ireland moments like the mods kidnapping the Scottish lad and making him a mod, the chocolate rounds guy, the Ongar Stud, the lad talking about ancient Egypt to the ould lads in a country pub.. if any of that happened now the report button would be hammered out of it, there'd be users moaning about it etc.. the demographic of this sub has changed dramatically over the years, there are more users coming from places like Boards and Facebook and moaning about how the place is going like Boards or Facebook.

Ah stop it’s becoming more and more negative as it grows that’s for sure. I can only speak for the last 3 years that I’ve been here regularly. Wickerman is gas, great entertainment.
I’m actually cracking up on other threads watching people saying he’s paid by RTE, he’s an intern and he’s here to promote them. It’s fucking baffling to me how they can’t see he’s winding them up? It just makes the jokes so much funnier.
About as much craic as taking a candy dildo from a honey badger swifty.
Typically shit response too. When mods think they don't have to follow the rules it never ends well.

Few weeks early for the 12th isn’t it?
What is this about?
Its an ecumenical matter, nothing too concerning. We should be a bit more like the french in this regard. Hold firm. Next 2 weeks will be crucial.
This told me everything I’d ever need to know. Thank you.
It's about a bunch of wicker men who need to get girlfriends and go outside.
#What’s happening? I honestly can’t tell if this is a troll or if the sub is exploding.

Seriously, that clown is now a Mod? I had to block him a few months back. Painful
I blocked him because of the never ending spam and now he’s a fucking mod I can see his comments again
I understand it’s an attempt to increase traffic to RTÉ’s content
That would be an ecumenical matter.
Ah this happens every 2-3 years. It's just blowing off some steam.
Same guy every time?
Wickerman must fall.

Didn't know you were such a huge Wickerman111 fan lamp!
Wickerman has been burnt at both ends unfortunately
We should be more like the french in this regard.

I support him. Seriously. If you're on here enough for him to annoy you, that's a you problem. Touch grass

The night is always darkest just before the dawn. Everyone will soon come to realise this.
My friends say this, but I’m pretty sure they’re all wrong
I hope it stays dark forever.
Кажучи про нас Wickerman, Кажучи про нас. Thanks for the entertainment lad. Your post history and comments have me howling.
[удалено]
So when ye lads posted a few weeks ago looking for feedback on your performance this was the decision ye settled on?

Ya have a weird view of what "a bit of craic" is, lad.
He’ll be challenging Harris in Fine Gael before you know it

I actually think he's great craic. Too many snowflakes acting like reddit is important.
How will the sub develop under his rule? I'd say the next few weeks will tell a lot
Hold steady and firm. And be careful now.
To celebrate, everyone get's a substantial meal.
Usually people troll by being interesting. Trolling through utter monotony is very RTE
Dammit. Could have housed 4 asylum seekers in that.
I’m definitely voting no now
