    Please learn the difference between a statement of fact (e.g. the French use less soap per capita than most other EU countries; the Germans like invading neighbouring countries) and an inflammatory opinion.

    James - you are no stranger to presenting one as the other

    It's fair to present data, but not to twist the data using wordplay. I've edited your post in line with the chatroom policy we have outlined.

    You've deleted my post, not edited it, I guess because you are a lily-livered PC-ista.

    Cheers,

    James - keep pushing and I think you know what will happen.

    You may be mistaking me for someone who cares.

    I think the guide lines are fair enough, but it is hard to draw a line between normal chit-chat that happens to mention differences in race, sex or sexuality and a statement that is considered 'racist' or any of the other terms.

    I wouldn't have thought the thread about women being from Zonk and a PITA was that bad. It clearly wasn't being taken that seriously by the people saying the so called 'sexist' things. Or was I just not taking it seriously?

    I deleted your post because I couldn't think of a polite way to edit it. I'm not sure why to be considerate of others is lily livered James.

    Once upon a time you could make jokes about virtually anything without so much as raising an eye. Nowadays, you cant say anything in case you offend some delicate soul. Political correctness has just gone too far.

    I still havent seen anything on this site thats offensive, yet things are getting deleted left, right & center. Are we becoming a nation of liberal softies who cant take a joke? I think so.

    quite sad really, the way some people go on...'they' will know who i mean too...not the good guys on here, but the cantankerous gimps that seem to operate on these forums, can you imagine what they're like in real life..? sigh...

    you may as well close this thread, as it seems to be going nowhere either...

    Paul - things being deleted left right and centre? I can still see where deleted posts/threads were and I can assure you there's very few of them.

    I agree with mr. cat in that this thread is going nowhere.

    James - if that's really the case I suggest you leave with your dignity intact rather than humiliating yourself further.

    Thread closed.
