Bring back rudeboy – please

Yes.

Not really much to add, apart from that it's impossible to take him seriously – and if you do, then more fool you.

Just off to start a "London is rubbish" thread before he gets back.

I found him narcissistic. Like I've said his inability to either listen to or respect the views of others at times was frankly breath-taking but in fairness he was a voice like so many that I've heard that was so insular from the rest of the world as to be laughable

Let him back in I say

So where have the last 4 posts gone? Has he sabotaged it?

In fact, not that I can see it, as for some reason Countzero's post is the last I can see, but 200!!! 😀

There is something really weird going on here with this website…

in defiance of what? people not wanting to listen to his predictable invectives?

edit:what happened to the post i was replying to? about standing on a plinth raising his fist in defiance?

Yes, please bring him back.

(I should add that a) I've met the poor woman a couple of times and b) I emailed the mods to bring him back when he was banned on a previous occasion. )
Fred livens the place up.

Never really could be bothered with the debates but in person he is really nice.

Indeed – I've emailed the mods… to tell them about this problem (in fact I did a while ago, as it's not new).

yes

Yes – at least his threads were more readable than the twice daily "What tyre?" threads.

If you don't like what PaddedRudeBra says you simply don't need to read them or reply to them.

I would also suspect that the advertisers spending their hard-earned cash on here would welcome the attention he brought to the forum through his ability to make quite a simple thread generate a massive number of responses.

So you're making the case for paying super Trollers?

Oh yes please. Let the little wastrel back in. Those that have met him know what a nice guy he is, and also read his posts in the same way. This site thrives on its characters at times to make it lively and interesting to visit.

No shock really that PP and Fred get along is it 😉

Indeed it isn't. I get along with everyone I've met off here.

I think TJ's ongoing crusade to ride STW of subliminal racism smacks a little of someone who is now shunned by his peers and workmates after trying to point out the inherent bigotry in their thought processes.

He's an Englishman in Scotland. I have an inkling of where his tendency to see racist bogeymen in every thread may have come from….

As for Fred, I dont hold much respect for the proposition: "Dont judge him unless you've met him in real life…"

The internet is every bit as much "real life" as being down the pub. If you cant be civil in here, then you cant be expected to be treated as someone who might well be civil down the Dog & Duck.

As nickc says, whether he comes back or not doesn't really bother me – his inability to argue in a style any more refined than shouty shouty belligerence has never put me on the debating back foot – but if he did, you could start the countdown timer until his next banning.

How many times is this that he has now been banned? Every time we seem to have TJ on a bring back Fred or ?/?/?/?(all his aliases).

The guy seems incapable of learning how to behave. Suppose that makes him a victim in the eyes of our pinko lefty friends, so he's one of the oppressed minority and should be welcomed back, preferably with a state handout.

He's had more than enough chances.

what's "pinko" ??

Where the hell do you get that from?

I have not done a "bring back Fred" thread before. I was very much in two minds about starting this one

I and others find the small minded insidious racism some posters on here continually come out with very annoying – I assume the mods agree as they pull the posts.

Its not overt racism – just a nasty racist tone. I am not the only one to see this and I tend not to shout and scream about it

I get along with everyone I've met off here.

that's because you bribe people with chocolate bars :o)

+1 TJ on the racism and A & A …perhaps it is because I am a scotsman living in England or perhaps it is because we despise the views of ignorant stupid racists and chalenge them when they spout their hate filled bile?
On topic I found rude boy did live up to his name was too long winded on his ramblings insulted the intelligence of anyone who disagreed with him never let his ignorance stop him from having an opinion (liked him discussing gentics with a gentic scientist for example)and his ban was inevitable as is his return.

For the record, I don't mind either way. I certainly don't feel there's a yawning gap in my online life that only he can fill.

what's "pinko" ??

From Wikipedia:

Pinko is a derogatory term for a person regarded as sympathetic to communism, though not necessarily a Communist Party member. The term has its origins in the notion that pink is a lighter shade of red, the color associated with communism; thus pink could be thought of as a "lighter form of communism" promoted by mere supporters of socialism who weren't, themselves, "card-carrying" communists.

Pinko and pink were widely used during the Cold War to label individuals accused of supporting the Soviet Union, including many supporters of ex-vice president Henry Wallace's 1948 U.S. presidential campaign with the Progressive Party. The word was predominantly used in the United States, where opposition to Communism grew strong among the population, especially during the McCarthy era. It was also in common use in South Africa during the apartheid era. In his two presidential campaigns, Alabama governor George Wallace often railed at "the left-wing pinko press" and at "pseudo-pinko-intellectuals."[3][4]

Been out of the office is the wudeboy back? Have we had a STW statement regarding return from exile?

all quiet from STW towers.

should tell you everything you need to know

I think the response is WGAS?
LOLing at the poor souls who have a yawning gap in their life without him though.

In relation to someone returning from a ban, having just checked my cant-give-a-ometer, it seems to be stuck on toss.

he is an apologist for religious people and their abhorant actions. so no, keep him out of here

[he is an apologist for religious people and their abhorant actions. so no, keep him out of here ]

Can think of some religions he was not an apologist for, as I recall made for some long and ranty threads. Miss them loads on a quite Friday.

TJ – have you notices the lack of any activity on STW site, perhaps everyone is out doing bike tests for the next issue.

I really think that the nite club should be opened in RudeBoy's honour tonight 8)

Anyone want to open up? Mine's a London Pride accompanied by some good guitar work.

beer and rock… way to go 😆

well it's been nearly ten minutes… and no response so how about…

Jimi Hendrix…
Straight Ahead…

seems pretty apt to me…

K 😆

just talking to RB now 8)

jimi is good

RB asks for hey joe. go kev!

Any comments from the mods yet?

(and before anyone says I know, Paul Weller's gutted!)

hey joe is on…

I gave her the gun… I shot her !

So are the Small Faces.

Red wine and a rest for me. Exmoor tomorrow.

rest wine.. I know.. I did that Weds night.
