When we type a post up on here some people do not realize that they are not just typing comments to their friends in a car club, it some times slips their mind it is not another MSN window you are telling the whole wide world your thoughts or comments.

shouldn't we (you ;) ) delete the 'christmas tree rant'?? As it says, you should remove the offensive material when you become aware of it. Not having a go or anything... actually, make it sticky so noone has anything to do with the twat and his business goes bust! :rofl:

Free speach to all I say. People can say what they like IMHO...they should say what they think..We don't have to all agree on every subject do we? Or get put in jail for haveing a point of view. The world has gone nutts......On being correct.

well there's free speech and there's free speech Neil. there should always be a line in the sand, although it's usually up for depate as to where that line is.

oh dear

Having an opinion on a political topic, or any topic for that matter is one thing, making racist comments or showing yourself to be a racist is another. (in my opinion!!)

Absolutely spot on Bob, its the same as the difference in calling someone a cooont, and writing to inform them that they are a cooont!

 

As its been said many times before, its not just the individual who posts comments gets the blame, the forum is responsible too.

 

I for one would be very upset if this forum ever had the plug pulled on it!!

Sorry? Are we now in America? The land of the "Dodgey" claim??

I would like to see free speach but not at the cost of this or any forum...it just seems a bit sad we can not say what we think. The world is a big place & we don't all think the same,talk the same or act the same. We should all try harder to undersand what we don't.....& who put the line in the sand.......GOD or BUDDA? USA or Iran? I don't know but we should be able to talk about it. ( Not on this Forum though would hate to see it stoped)

IMO....

If Muslim terrorists openly admit that they bombed innocent people in London then we are going to get rattled by it and spend a few days going off and sometimes display our disgust on this forum. But by making a statement that is obviously aimed at anyone that isnt white then the line has to be drawn. I have learned that this forum and the mods that supervise it along with those that are responsible for its future put themselves in jepody if they allow this kind of thing to go uncencored. So I agree and think that if anyone takes it upon themselves to threaten the future of our club they should be banned for life. Not just a week or a month. :bow:

at the end of the day, it's a car forum - the political stuff belongs somewhere else... we've had the problem with stupid posts, and shouldn't risk the same happening with all the PC rubbish/ comments/ opinions - IMHO I get enough of that in the pub!

Trouble there is....Not everyone wants to talk ONLY about cars. The point isnt about drival anymore its about racism. Lets keep it that way please... :x:

Freedom is great and we all enjoy it. But there have to be rules and 'no racism' should be one of them.

tbh honest wasnt the named person refering to non british not non white. im very anti scroungers no matter what colour, religion etc. my own brother pisses me off as the lazy fecker has NEVER had a friggin job and sits on his fat arse all day doing nowt. the only people that annoy me more are the ones who emigrate to the UK with no respect for our way of life, or working for a living and then insulting us as a nation as part of the bargain, but due to part 3 of that. i for one try and learn the basic language of any country i speak, i make sure i understand their culture and dont go there and think they should all act british.

I seem to remember a guest called dangerous dave getting banned for having a laugh, so members who put in racist comments should also get banned, or is it one rule for one and an other rule for others

Dangerous Dave was a little more than having a laugh!!!

what was he up to that can be worse than racism

Have you read the club rules and AUP?

some of them ,to many to take in and remember tell me the one he broke

Tell you??

Yes sir!

 

First of all, he was being abusive on the forum, secondley, he circumvented a ban with a dual i.d.

some of them ,to many to take in and remember tell me the one he broke

 

Maybe it would be a good idea if you were to take them all in before you start comparing one to another? Just a suggestion. That bloke came on here fully intent on causing disruption and got exactly what he deserved. This is a totally different subject altogether. This is about what is aceptable chat and what is not. Not if we should put up with childish idiots.

 

Some subjects do generate a lot of personal interest but we have to decide if this is the place to disguss it or not.......?
