I guess not. As I said though, manners cost nothing-i largely ignore people that are abrasive and confrontational-especially when they are debating inane crap on here 🙂
[i]So yes, there is an excuse for his behavior.[/i]
Bollocks.
I think the content of a persons mind are more important than the delivery..
e.g. people like crikey are capable of being rude, but in crikey's case, his mind is as empty as a fish, and is of little use to society.. 😉
Elfin got up people's noses but at least he usually had quite a good point to make, and was determined to make it
Yeah,but on here it's not about controlling the tongue. It's to do with other things that make someone who they are.. and if they can't adjust something that shouldn't have been said within 15 minutes I think it shows a lot about someone. (not aiming that at you or freddib!)
...and having read that back I can't be arsed adjusting sfa.:D
And what do you have against fish, hmmm?
As long as you know your plaice.
It's all codswollop...
For cod's sake...
Don't start the fish puns again. I don't think I could hake it.
How did davidjones15 have a spat with Fred seeing as he joined after Fred was bay ned - its true it does auto correct it
Anyone care to guess who he is ?
Mike Connor is never Fred
It's all very unfor[b]tuna[/b]te...
What a lad of Pollocks the last few posts are
He once emailed me about something that I posted that he disagreed with, do people really take the Internet that seriously?
Bit of weirdo.
I don't want for anyone to take it person halibut it's kind of fun.. 🙂
I think you're skating on thin ice with this & Elfin was a dab hand at drum & bass 😉
For me the bloke is indeed a tool, I would love to meet him in person as I think he would be the kind of bloke that tries to laugh it all off as a personar, I think the reality is he is very insecure & needs the anonymous attention.

This would not happen, I can assure you.
Well I know that when push comes to shove he went running to the mods on here, so for such a goby git he has very girly tendencies
I fail to see how it could have come across or been intended in any other way!I spoke to him about the 'Paedo' thing on twitter. He stated that he had no intention of his comment coming across in such a way.
Place is much better now that his new persona(s) have to be kept on a leash.
Used to be one of the resident attention seekers, still a few on here mind, glad he's gone and doesn't spoil threads anymore. Good riddance.

In english and without sexism please
Maybe he is a decent chap in real life but why act like a complete cock on the Internet?
What's the point?
It sounds daft, but that's his idea of a rhetorical device. Manners are indeed free, but it's difficult to control your own tongue sometimes - as I can testify.
That's the weakest excuse for bad manners I've ever heard.

Hmmmm. Isn't that what manners are?
He could actually string a coherent argument together then tie those that questioned his logic in knots. He baited, he cajoled, he wound up, he wound down. He's a stength of will and social awareness that some could learn a great deal from.
There were very few nasty comments made to others, but understand he could go too far sometimes.
He's an intelligent bloke who rides bikes and sees the world slightly different to some, I'd share an evening with him.
He made me laugh.
Agree with Bikebuoy, there are others on here who have made much more personal, and, I feel, offensive attacks on others just to be nasty, who seem to have gotten away with it.
Elfin's personal syntax seemed to be enough to work some into a frenzy sometimes; I always found it amusing, even more so because others got so bloody wound up by it! 😀
Hmmmm. Isn't that what manners are?
Yeah, broadly. 'Free' is not a synonym for 'easy to do' though.
I'm not entirely sure about this, so apologies and comment withdrawn if not the case, but is this thread about the same bloke who threatened HTN organisers over his entry to the race last Feb? Words to the effect of - I'm going to come up there and physically attack you.
I'm sure he's very nice over a pint though.
🙄
I think he was one of the most intelligent and articulate people on here and was very funny, but took the internets WAY too seriously, and perhaps hadn't grown up enough to realise that sometimes having friends is more important than being right.
I also think he was joking a lot of the time. And attention seeking.
But if I had to pick 6 people on here to have over for dinner he would def be on the list.
Careful what you say Hels - he is watching this thread!!
This wake is useless without alocohol or chocolate eclairs.
Well it's not like I put my address...
Fwap fwap fwap
I'm going to come up there and physically attack you.
people have said that to me on here but somehow never gotten round to doing it 🙂
There's only ONE person I've blocked on Facebook, although I was *that* far away from banning Binners for suggesting I add said person as a friend.
He's a tool, and this place is better without him.
The guy was/is a helmet.
Good riddance.
Three bleedin pages about Elfin? Oh my.. (I better not say any more.)
Lol I forgot about the HtN threats.
Came across as a massive gobshite and a total bell end on here. I suspect he was probably quite a good laugh in person.
I'm of the opinion that you should talk to people online in the same way you do in real life, so even though he was probably no where near as bad in real life, it doesn't excuse being a tit online.
So, apart from the accusations, the bell-endery and the threats of violence, he's actually a nice guy?
No he's misunderstood. By whom, exactly, has not been explained.
My apathy compells me not to post, but then none of you would know of my apathy.
So, meh.
Meh indeed.
OP, where did you have said pints ?
