Please chaps, keep it and clean on here. No talk of spherical objects and such-like, dont you know. Lets be nice and innocuous, even dull. You saw what that nasty big black fella did to my thread. That nice chap in red came along and wielded the scalpal. A snip in time? Tally-ho!

Quote:
how do you justify fun??????

Not sure what you mean

Quote:
fun having a laugh with person on the forum at the same time?

ribbing a member and them interacting?

posting a funny comment in relation to the thread?

That's fine as long as a good thread doesn't get derailed

Quote:
Abusing trust and Taking personal details for fun at another members expense?

Again if you're taking a swipe at me at no time did I take any personal details.

Quote:
granted not everything is funny. some close to the knuckle.

But on the whole members are careful not to over step the mark, not being able to see reactions is a dangerous game.

We let an awful lot of stuff stay that probably shouldn't

Quote:
earlier Cliff/iff was happy to be ribbed in a non offensive way, but posts were deleted????

Yes

Quote:

Envoy has had everything thrown at him on all manners of threads, that's acceptable?????

No if he takes offense

Quote:

I did not expect it receive an abusive post towards another member.

if you take offense report the post

Quote:
You as mods have a thankless job, I appreciate that, I have said it before, but if you are going to draw a line define it.

Thank you. We only go by what we feel at the time taking into account many factors. The 'line' basically defined by common sense.

Quote:
I interpret your comments to be, if a thread is started, make clear and concise comments regarding that thread, if it dies then that's it. keep your personality out of it ????

First part correct. Second part depends on how serious the thread was in the first place.

Quote:

So the word association thread was a good buffer for all other comments, very little was said on the other threads or hijacked as you put it.

As mentioned before it was causing a problem with the server but a single thread for general rubbish is fine.

Quote:

Tell us how you want the forum to be, no offence meant to anybody. Very Happy

We want an informative site where we can have a laugh too.

If anyone finds anything offensive you simply need to alert the mods by clicking on the 'Report Post' icon. As a mod I get many reports and act on them, this forum evolves around what the members and Martin want it to be and the amount of complaints we have been getting from other members is starting to get rather numerous. Use your commonsense when posting, if it involves sexual innuendo try and be clever and not obvious but expect it to be edited if Martin or the mods find it OTT or we get a complaint. Keep the joke posts in a particular thread because no one wants to trawl through 20 threads with new posts only to find they all end up farcical. RRS 2.7 TDV6 HSE Zambezi silver,Alpaca.

There's a bank holiday weekend and what happens...

I think actually this is quite a valuable thread in itself... I'll tidy the heading and put it in Site Announcements for others to see and for us mods to refer people to.
