Damn, I thought they'd rehoused the actual thread into Off Topic

Drew necro-bumped that thread.  Make of that what you will.

If that is in response to my previous comment, I suggest you reread it....

It was, I did and I'm not quite sure what point you're making.

I already explained to you that I bumped it because someone else mentioned it at the tail end of the other chav thread. I thought it would be amusing, and I was correct.

I missed all the posts that caused the deletion of the thread. I wasn't reading it by that point anyway. 

But I remembered there'd been a similar thread a long time ago. I searched 'chav' in the search box and on page 1 of the results was the old thread. The fact it was posted by Emp was pretty funny in context, so I stuck it up in Drew's thread.

And the getting rid of the 'Chav' thread worked well - simply being replaced by Emp's bete noir dredging up a previous one, enabling the same kind on 'banter' (or is that 'banable behaviour'?) to continue.....

We voted OUT of the EU.
Stop speaking French.

Or if you do then at least get it proper, like.
"Bête noire".

What's Black Betty got to do with it?

You can get cream for that these days, you know.

There's def been a few disappearing posts without the usual "removed because A was being a prat" comment in there place.

I'd be very surprised if that were actually true.  We almost never delete posts, and never do so because someone's being a prat without telling the poster why and without detailing it in the interventions thread.  The only posts that are deleted without any comment, to my knowledge anyway, are classified ads from lazy noobs who don't read the rules and just post an ebay link etc.

The one I had in mind was in the Bad Gags thread. Someone posted a truly horrible joke, not offensive, but the sort of joke that makes you question someone's inner being. I reposted with a simple comment along the lines of "really?" (Can't remember exact), but both are gone. I guess the original poster can delete their comment, but not a repost of it?

Maybe I'm dreaming it up!

I deleted that.

IIRC, it was early morning, and I was doing a quick scan of threads on my iPad, and saw it.

Editing posts on an iPad is now a real pita,  so I just deleted the original, and your repetition of it (by quoting it), as the quickest way of removing it from view.

Cool. I'm with you 100% on the deletion btw, was just surprised not see the usual comment. At least I know I'm not going mad!

I was going to get into it... the whole 'we don't delete posts' thing. But y'know what... it's a waste of time.

Lee replies to you????

Right then.

Aye, we're mates. Well I think so. He might consider me a surrogate son. Or just some wanker that he has to unofficially babysit so I don't ruin his pride and joy. I don't know.

What I do know is that the moderation does not seem to be consistent at all, and rules and context are often invented after the fact.

I don't really care anymore. I consider myself on borrowed time. Already been told that I'm on my last warning, which makes no sense whatsoever to me. And clearly my non-retard contributions here are not valued anyway, so I care very little about my future here. It's basically a shitposting arena for me, and I'll continue in that vein until someone loses their shit and banhammers me. I just don't care.

Maybe it's all just a test to see if you remain true to yourself in the face of an outright ban?

I reckon if you continue to outrage and act up ( ) you will break through to the next level of awareness and start vibrating on a higher plane of existence. 

Read about it in The Celestine Prophesy.


Also I know Lee too, I buy all his old gear in the hope he will like me.
