Wandering Off Topic

[Vertigo Swirl]

Well Vertigo, I've been handed 40 forum points today for pointing out an error in a post, so in short, I like a laugh, but the time for levity has passed.

...and isn't your post 'goading'?

Some odd rules here, arbitrarily moderated.

No, it’s not goading, it was a sincere question asked in all seriousness.

Apologies, 30.
Thanks for those.

I just clicked on your user name to get your profile where points are registered.  Anyone can do that.

To answer the question, no. Although your question is inadvertently inciteful, as I've been heavily involved in amdram for many years. What I don't know about Pinter and Miller ain't worth knowing.

But I will take the forum points, lick my wounds and press on.

I assumed it was 20 points per offence. Seems not. Where's the scoreboard posted?
Mild, anachronistic, Manningesque, casual racism - 5 points
Veiled, drunken threat of cyber investigation - 10 points
Anti-Semitic, out of context rant - 15 points
Outrageous, egregious personal slur - 20 points
Point out an obvious, glaring error in a quote in a post - 20 points.

I don't know.  It's something I so very rarely do.

Until today....:)

I don't know who did it.  I never check.  It could have been John for all I know.  He does read every Report.

Racism is positively encouraged on certain parts of the forum, especially the immigration threads.

Fair enough. Onwards and upwards.

Sounds like my kind of place. I'll check it out.
Are there any references to 'bloody foreigners, taking our jobs'?

Given the excess of anti-racism in society today I think it's only right there are platforms with pro racist opinions, that's diversity imo.

Do you have any sincerely held views or do you just enjoy being a contrarian (posh word for troll)?

Yes I know what a centurion is & I'm not one of those, I just disagree with the general consensus on any given subject.
