But, I'm guessing that by complaining about the 'FPOTY 2013 Wooden Spoon Idiot Of The Year Nominations ' thread, it has become self fulfilling :lol:

And no, the winner isn't Velonutter, I think that was a good bit of modding.

    Nope, they've fixed the bug that was stopping me logging in at work so I can now settle a few scores with any backstabbing barstewards who've been dissing me in the daytime :wink:

    Aren't you really old? I thought you said you were something like 50. I'll just keep a packet of Werther's Originals handy to distract you if you ever come after me following one of our occasional political disagreements. :P

    That's OK, I'll just remind Rick I voted for him in the most helpful moderator poll and get him to lift the ban.

    What if someone reminds him you voted for him in the Jobsworth Spoilsport poll?

    The smell of basement dungeon is quite hard to get rid of. Looks like I now have Seano, Arran and Finchy on the list for the 'Human Centipede' treatment.

    What I can't fathom (and maybe that makes me the idiot to some here) is why anyone would want to suggest such a thing. Regardless of how you mean what your typing, you could and possibly would offend at least one person so why bother ? whats to be gained ?
    Many school boy bullies try to justify playground bullying as "just a bit of fun" but how does the kid being bullied feel ?

    I have absolutely no doubt this won't get through to those I aim it at but felt it was worth my 2 minutes to type it.

    Unfortunately curiosity got the better of me on that film, after which I remembered that 'what has been seen cannot be unseen'. There's a very good South Park skit of it on youtube though if you're feeling like a wimpy womble :)

    What you cannot seem to seperate is banter from bullying.
    What we do in here has limits. I have never witnessed bullying in this part of the forum, contrary to popular belief. You also get respect for being able to take it on the chin, you get more respect by brushing it off with a witty or clever reposte.

    Sean the con is a tw4t. Stevo is a d1ckhead. Pinarello is a cnut. Mikey is an old wrinkly prune with more metalwork than bones. No-body gives a flying f**k because none of it is actually meant to harm. We have been sympathetic towards Mikey for example because he has had his fair share of accidents but we can all laugh - it's the best medicine.
    Sticks and stones may... you know the rest.
    We take the preverbial out of each other but we are also expected to take it on the chin in the same way we dish it out. If you can't dish it and take it, don't post it.

    If you feel that some of the jibes towards you have been unfair and you are being persecuted, then perhaps you would like to do the following:
    Either: Keep away from BB, Cake Stop and Crudcatcher.
    Don't jump on a bandwagon.
    Don't post at the merest suggestion of Ferraris and Caviar (literally and metaphorically) but most of all,
    Lighten up ffs.
    The last point would put you in a good postition and you may find that if you actually held your hands up and said "I've been a plonker, sorry.", you would get some respect back.

    The thread is entitled 'This is not a personal attack' and the merest hint of that was enough to get the dogs barking at each other making the thread quite funny and ironical. It was definately not directed towards you, unless of course you have been off to the complaints dept. again?
