Rob before you start m8 you were not banned for swearing in the muppet room think you will find it more like you received infraction points which resulted in a automatic ban for reaching to many infraction points (not 100% on that as was not me that delt with it) for swearing in a thread title which has been against pf rules since day one

As long as the joke isnt NSFW then I dont move it. Even then I will adjust the topic to read NSFW.

If the topic is turning silly then I will move it to the muppet room.

If its just you calling Simon a Cunt though AJ.....

i saw that thread when it was first posted mate, and it had no replies or views when it was in the muppet room, so someone might have been extra speedy with their speedy mod finger ype typing and general being a mod-ness and moved it straight away

they should be appluaded for being so quick to move stuff that should rightly belong in the muppet room and not deleting it because they didn't find it funny

i found it hilarious btw, even though it's such a sad thing to happen

sooner or later someones going to put up a link for the things you signed up for, one of them being that they can do what they like and you don't have to be told shit

you'll get into more trouble trying to find out who posted i than you would if you'd called everyone a rude name

Well I think that it would be courtious of the person who moves a thread to give a quick reason as to why it was moved so people know what to post & what not to post in the future!

I've been polite about the whole thing & as a paying member on the site I would like to know why it was moved.

well said...!!!

I was reading this thread and thinking... How fucking petty! Hardly the end of the world is it... plus the joke was shit! I am assuming its the one about all the innocent people dieing in Mumbai? Thats not a joke...

sorry AJ, but if you read the thread, you would also no doubt think... fuck! I sound so childish!

Shut up, I'm asking the mods a simple question & had they answered the question I wouldn't have kept asking again & again would I?


Also Westy - I aksed you why you thought if a white person had posted that joke up WW3 would break out?

the simple answer to your question is.... Because if a white person had posted it, the "being rascist" card would be pulled out.. As sad as it is, thats the way it is unfortunately. Happens on here all the time! I assume it wasn't white folk killing? Not really been following the tragic events as quite frankily, terrorism fucks me off!

My point was... the post got moved, not really the end of the world is it mate. At least yours get moved. Mine get deleted and I get banned!

That's because they hate you

I doubt that there would have been an issue had a white person posted that thread up, well it wouldn't have bothered me anyway

I can almost garuntee if I put post us in the same fashion as you did, I would be called a rascist

By you not answering the question I assume I'm right in saying... Once again, it was our asian freinds killing innocent people and not us White trash?
As far as I know it was Muslim terrorists killing innocent people of all colours & beliefs

Anyway, "White trash"? Why would you call yourself that?
