Still sounds to me like you're agreeing with Melts

He does, but I believe he had to make a token gesture by repremanding myself and Homer

 

[MHS]

You're all wankers :icon_wink

 

[Steven]

This I believe is the Melton defence.

I swear I'm telling you the truth

Sir Bob Geldof’s penchant for the odd swearword or two, might be a shrewder oratory strategy than we realise. Eric Rassin and Simon Van Der Heijden at Erasmus University in The Netherlands report evidence that people are more likely to rate a statement as believable when it contains swearwords.

 

[Melton Fox]

Exactly.

If somebody tells you they are cold, you can brush it aside. If they tell you they are "fecking" cold, you know they really are

steven is the nanny state

freedom of speech

 

[homer]

steven is a big girls' blouse and should really get a life

Right on DD

 

[Jeff]

freedom of speech

So do you think we should abandon our values of decency and tolerance?

I've seen sites where, if unchecked, what starts as childish name calling degenerates into a 'war' that dominates the whole site.

Why can't we just be nice to people?

talk about a total exagerration jeff-i was just stating the fact i was allowed to say steven is a nanny state nothing more-i wasn't condoning the name calling.

Because that would be too easy/boring. :icon_wink

You get what you sew in life. He admitted not being very nice towards members of my football team, I became not very nice to him. Tough titties

There is a big difference between
a) calling someone a wanker/twat in a knee jerk response to something they have posted that you might personally find pitiful and pathetic
b) Posting messages of genuine bullying and/or abuse

homer is spot on not jeff

 

[homer]

I disagree with you, Steven - you see I just think this whole thing is going one stage too far in terms of passing judgement on what is acceptable banter on a footy forum

Is that Ok ?

You see I was going to just call you a twat, but I opted instead for tolerant discussion

 

[Melton Fox]

Big loud smelly trump noise to anybody that disagrees with me, fed up with arguing it.
