Oh, so its OK for you to make an assessment of someone else's character (your post # 13 first paragraph) when you have stated you don't know how to do certain things on here ? Also stating he's playing baby houses, but when someone observes you you go all defensive and chocolate wouldnt melt.
Yes I bet you have done with this issue because your logic is indefendable and you keep digging yourself a big hole, and as for your Character BT, its shot at the moment.
You were getting there in Post 13 BT,
"A bit arbitrary I know and in hindsight I could have handled my response to Alf's "Numbongo" thread a lot better, but like you constantly advocate I thought it best for me to "stop digging a hole" and close the thread. This storm in a teacup is exactly the reason I use the tool of moderation so sparingly. We live, we learn and hopefully do not try to create unnecessary brouhaha."
So stop being a mard-arse and throwing your toys out of the pram, leave that sort of stuff to Scholes, enhance and emphasise the above and I'm sure everything will be sweetness and light again in no time at all.
We are in lockdown and we know that things have been difficult but one of the things that has helped is this forum.Different opinions,some of which I disagree with,some a bit long winded and occasionally some I'm not particularly interested in.However I thought we were all adults.I play a lot of bowls and visit a lot of other clubs normally and it never ceases to surprise me the amount of petty bickering that you come across.Don't let it start on here PLEASE,the majority of us don't want to hear it.
We are adults Barrie, and for me it is not petty bickering, it is a discussion about how the Forum is run and not going down the path of so many others by towing the pathetic PC line, which in effect is trying to gag us, it is a message board to discuss after all, if some points turn into petty squab-bling then that is unfortunate.
Some folk have certain morals and I don't want or need to be associated with anyone that will try and dissect my sentences/speech and take it out of context to make it into something that it is not.
It's 2021 and referring to people as, "Paddies, nips, sheep shaggers, slant eye's, chica's, frogs, huns, pakis" is totally unacceptable. Like it or not Alto, that is the way of the world.
I would love you to show me an example of where I have tried to dissect your sentences/speech and take it out of context to make it into something that it is not.
I was given the unenviable job of taking over from Tony Scholes and I have no intention whatsoever of trying to attempt a metamorphism into copying him.
If posters can't be arsed to spell one of our owns name right when opening a thread, then what's the point of opening a thread other than to sow confusion?
This is my last post on this thread, so please feel free to rant on Alto because I won't be seeing it.
"It's 2021 and referring to people as, "Paddies, nips, sheep shaggers, slant eye's, chica's, frogs, huns, pakis" is totally unacceptable. Like it or not Alto, that is the way of the world".
"Its the way of the world" for those with nothing better to do, and sheep who follow them, tell me please, what do you call a black board ? a man hole cover ? a postman ? a blacksmith ? its pathetic.
"I would love you to show me an example of where I have tried to dissect your sentences/speech and take it out of context to make it into something that it is not".
If you state that another poster is racist for a post which has nothing to do with racism then what is to stop you doing it to someone else ? 100% I'd say.
"I was given the unenviable job of taking over from Tony Scholes and I have no intention whatsoever of trying to attempt a metamorphism into copying him".
You was not given anything, You took it on, and whatever you say you are doing a good job of being just as pedantic and stubborn.
"If posters can't be arsed to spell one of our owns name right when opening a thread, then what's the point of opening a thread other than to sow confusion"?
You are adding your own summation to something that is NOT THERE, Come on grow up FFS.
"This is my last post on this thread, so please feel free to rant on Alto because I won't be seeing it".
Please refer to a Dictionary BT, there is a difference between Rant and Respond, apart from my OP I have Replied to other peoples posts, as I have with yours here.
Just to show how totally messed up the PC brigade and you are BT, please refer to the below thread where you stated about a dead man.
Hunter was a pedigree T-W-A-T rest in peace my arse.
It's not racist, but its a total lack of respect for someone who has lost their life which IMO is just as bad.
