Anyway I have checked the forum and I can't see any racism on there at all, seriously. I must have imagined it, which makes it just as well I never accused anybody of it (when you've been around the block a few times you do pick up the oddbit of sense along the way)

It is good to know though that in the unlikely event of any such nonsense ever appearing on the boards, it would be taken extremely seriously.

Now that's all been sorted anyway and we all know clearly where we stand with such things, I'm going to concentrate the next couple of hours on the cricket before I go to bed.

I do still think the card system could be improved, but it seems there isn't much appetitie for either debate or change. I myself don't have much appetite for the other stuff so i think I'll give the thing a miss

I'm not asking you to implicate anybody, I'm just asking, "who did it FFS"

I didn't make any "allegations" as you wrote in another post Red, I simply said that post with racist undertones shouldn't be tolerated or that anybody on the recieving end of them shouldn't be expected to "grow a thicker skin". You've effectively agreed with me and said it's a bannable offence, so we're all good.

Nice to know that if there ever was any such things on the forum they'd be stamped out instantly, regardless of who the perpetrator was.

And im asking - where it is....show me where the racism has ocurred and leave the rest to me. Simple as that.

Unless there isn't any

Like I say Red I must have imagined it, because I looked in the place where I thought it was and it's not there. Unreal

This place is spooky sometimes :laugh:

The main thing is we all know now that any such nonsense wouldn't be just swept under the carpet or kicked into the long grass :laugh:

You know the craziest thing, I even thought I'd posted after where I thought it was, and that post isn't there either

I really must have been hallucinating last night, obviously too much Gin and Coke. I can only apologise for mentioning the "r" word and inadvertantly causing a panic. Total false alarm, apologies to all. It was never there.

Personally I would try the Alonso thread but then again that might just be me.

Well, im sure glad you dont have any exclusion zone setup around what it is exactly you wish to convey...otherwise we'd never sleep soundly of a night.

'Racist undertones' eh....

You know, it was only the other night that i cleaned up some muck in that thread left behind by a poster who, wasn't being racist to another member at all. No, more like yer straight up, good old-fashioned (tired cliche) about someone's mother and her sexual inclinations of all things...

Nope - Still don't see any Racism in that thread. Do you?

Then again, ive not read it in its entirety, so....

I am not sure what you are on about at all Red ,but I have certainly never said ANYTHING about anybodys mother in any sort of offensive manner on here in that thread or any other.

Maybe I got the wrong thread then, I was only guessing what thread Mick meant. It was certainly full of abuse anyway, some of which was certainly bordering on racist in my opinion. Seemingly someone felt the same as the post in question seems to have disappeared. Maybe Mick was just imagining it. Funnily enough it WAS there when I posted above.

Well, im sure glad you dont have any exclusion zone setup around what it is exactly you wish to convey...otherwise we'd never sleep soundly of a night.

Not a clue what you are on about here

And i havn't said it was YOU that made the comments....

I handled the situation the other night and woof has since been in with the floor cloth to spruce the place up a bit. He mustn't have found any racism either...

Exclusion zone - meaning you are not shy in sticking your oar in.

Its not rocket science.....if there has been an offence, we really need to be pointed in the right direction so as to deal with it. Otherwise all manner of suggestions crop up concerning mods who are not infact doing what they are unpaid and asked to do voluntarily in their free time. Something that none of the 'current' team have any issue with whatsoever i'll add - despite the crock of s.hit that is presently being chucked at them about their integrity....their morals/ethics...you name it.

Maybe you should give it a go. Its all plain sailing really.

Well, it wouldn't have been if i hadn't f*cking seen it would there! Maybe there is more than one moderator around the gaff, believe it or not. Perhaps they can address this.

Now either put in a formal regarding this racism that you have witnessed, or stop being so bleedin cryptic and try and help the situation. As opposed to fannying around the issue speaking in riddles..

I ask one last time. Where...is the racism?

Probably threw his dummy out the pram.

Why you getting so tetchy about it red

I can't help you mate, as I've already said I must have been imagining it. I do this with my kids when I nick one of their sweets and stick it in me mouth. "where's me sweet gone?" "what sweet?" "that sweet that was sitting there" "what sweet that was sitting there?"

Gets em every time it does. Mind you they are seven and four.

I think it's best we just accept that I made a mistake, I've already aplogised for it, I was obviously hallucinating.

As for the crock of sh!t that is being thrown at the mods, what are you on about? I've said about ten times on both the threads on the same subject that the mods do a good job. I'll say it agin here, I think the mods do a good job. Just because I think the card system should be changed it doesn't mean I don't think the mods do a good job.

What did the faggot say after the defeat?

"Och, aye, me heed wasnae right for tha maatch. I hurt me arm in the warm-up and, och, me back wa killin' me as well. I didnae return the serve right because of thaaat, an am just disappointed tha I couldnae show the faaans ma true level. I think if I'da been at the top o' me game, it'da been a different story."

F*ck off Murray, you snaggle-toothed jock b*stard. F*ck off back to your Andy-cave and cry yourself to sleep on your massive pillow, you big-headed, self-centered, graceless son of a Scottish harlot.

Well done Roddick. Thus ends the ridiculous Murray cream-fest that is Britain during Wimbledon.

Thank funk.

I'd say that is pretty racist.

Still trundling along i see - maybe time to draw a line under everything and move on .

Well, unofficially - there will be a revamp of certain things coming up.

But crock of s.hit means - almost on a daily basis we are reminded that a mod isn't doing his job. If that were paid employment, you'd be up before the gaffer and turfed on yer ear after a couple of occasions no doubt. Without wanting to sound 'precious' its in my interest to try and do this task, to the best of my ability - i take it as a slur when there is a feeling which suggests otherwise. I do have one of these 'thick skins' however and equally, i have a sense of humour....but these lads (me an all) are sick and tired of being told 'how it should be done' - i repeat..almost daily.

Then, when there is a report about a potential issue - (you) in this case, don't want to spill the beans

You really can't bloody win....anyway, im off to physio now. This will have to go down as one that got away unless you want to discuss it in full outside the forum? Im trying here, you know.

We ALL are.
