You Shouldn't Call People Retards. It's Offensive


SCB

Recommended Posts

personally, I think SCB is as thick as 2 short planks nailed together with 6 inch nails and should never be allowed back on this site.

 

Rant over, look forward to your intelligent posts next year Shawn. :P:D

Have you never had a couple before 1 o clock on the last working day before Christmas ? I know I have , albeit in the distant past. Be that as it may, the thread that we are now on wasn't started until nearly 5 pm . I don't know if SCB was three sheets to wind or not but look at the chronology. You mentioned first the SS article early in the morning on the thread where it belongs. SCB from reasons best known to himself starts a separate thread with a pejorative title several hours later, adding nothing new apart from some name calling . The mods simply shorten the title down to "Jon Cook ". SCB then starts yet another thread late in the afternoon that is not really anything to do with speedway but simply focusses on, and inflames the use of the word "retard ". Whether he had a skinful or not by that point the third thread is a direct challenge to the mods after they had already fired a shot across the bows by amending the title on the Jon Cook thread, which he then amended yet again and which the mods changed back yet again.

 

SCB is old enough to be responsible for his own actions, On this or any other forum , when anyone starts flouting the authority of the mods its going to end up in a ban (or suspension ). We told he had been given some warnings, but drunk or not he continued his collision course with the mods, and at one stage he said he didn't care if he got a ban. Well now he has got one. He got his wish , he has made a martyr of himself on what he sees as a point of principle, and he is off the forum for two weeks (so we are told) at the quietest time of the year forum wise. When we stand back from the situation its really a storm in a teacup. SCB will soon be back or not be back depending on what he wants to do , No big deal.

 

 

Depending on who you are of course...

A very simple answer,

 

The ones who have been called thick and biased., they've been abused, hence they are offended.

 

Nobody, other than Jon Cook was called a retard. Jon Cook could quite rightly be offended.

 

 

Correct, it was insulting Jon Cook, nobody else.

Who did Jon Cook personally call thick for some to get so offended by it? Edited by liam

In which every Elite Leagur promoter had a MAJOR say, according to the report.

CVS already confirmed the list was virtually a unanimous one with the same riders selected by all promotions.

However only one promoter called fans stupid for questioning the list.

It would be financially suicidal if all the promoters said what cook did.

A clear admission of one lie then.......surely that puts everything else you post in doubt?

Only if you were very 'stupid and biased', given that the rest of my post was taken from SCB's Facebook, and the rest quoted on here by others. See post #77.

Thats not quite it if you read the final paragraph properly.

The perennial problem with the BSF . You are constantly dealing with people who virtually incapable of reading a whole post in the context of the discussion as opposed to picking out a small section that suits their argument.

Maybe not to you, but I can gurantee he will be pulling his hair out whatever time of year it is. Proves one thing, nobody on here is bigger than this forum. And I hope he learns from it..

Doubt he'll be too bothered as he's still got Facebook. In fact I wouldn't be that surprised if he doesn't come back.

yep rules are rules.

 

you told me to go and play with the traffic on the forum.

 

that means then you deserve a ban surely???

 

thing is im not a pathetic little weasel like you and in fact dont actually go crying to the mods if someone uses something offensive to me.

 

then again you have always been an advocate of one rule for one one for another.

 

Middlo calls a fan a retard and you see no issue

SCB calls a promoter a retard and you throw your toys out the pram.

 

As proved thick as you like

Give it a rest Gav!!

 

Incidentally didn't Middlo simply ask 'Are you retarded?' on his tweet, rather than make a statement as SCB did?!

 

In any case Middlo had his 'slap on the wrist' from his authorities, the same as SCB has had his from this forum!!

 

Move along.

 

Peace and Goodwill to all!
