Not acceptable behaviour hun..Everyone new or old has a right to voice their opnion with being frightend of being shouted down, told to shut up, or being belittled by louts who never learnt any manners.

all very well and good ian, however if they spout half as much unneccesary information as yourself, it may make people switch of in droves.

You've missed the option for 'I don't take [censored] from anyone, new or old'.

[LiquidEyes]

Whether or not I'm rude to people has nothing to do with whether they're new or not.

 

However I reserve the right to be rude to:

* stupid/ignorant people;

* people who brag or namedrop;

* people who are tactless or rude without good cause.

 

Thank you.

I voted for "I think its Stupid Rude and Childish"

 

I think certain banter should only be allowed in certain 'random' forums personally (i.e. out of Welcome Newbies, Events Sections, Music Sections, Serious Issues and only allowed in forums like General Discussion, FYI, Jokes..)

[Mr_Happy]

i dont think the point was as much directed at the banter, but more the colourful language we use in our banter

Do you object to use of the word gaylord?

sorry Mr Happy - I meant banter in terms of the certain words we keep using.

Not sure it's ever necessary to be rude...Look at Lennox Lewis...I am sure he is never rude.. I think he finds politness, and a vicious right hook do just as well.

Jay...

 

You posted inaccurate and misleading information..ie "The Camden Palace is closing down"

 

The ultimate source for this rumour was a press release and a half yearly report. Then the only way that peeps are going to be able to make up their own minds is if they have access to that information. Which in my opinion makes it necessary.

 

It is a great deal more likely that insulting someone directly, or intimidating them by being cliquey, or absuing them, or being brutally honest will make people switch off in far larger droves, than a couple of long but necessary posts. None of which I do..but most of which you do.

intimidating them

 

on a message board... then they are pussy's and weak people.

 

being cliquey

 

its not a crime to speak to people or be nicer to people you like. im gonna be nicer or "cliquey" (the loners term) to people such as Tara for instance as she is a mate, you for example are not so why would i talk to you both the same??

 

being brutally honest will make people switch off in far larger droves

 

if people cannot handle the truth then that is their problem.

Hmmmm you looked public info up on the net.

 

i asked the [censored] manager, who do you reckon is more in a position to know??
