Be honest, is there anything in this five page thread that we’ve not already had, several times?

Son you are no longer a Noob and the forum salutes you

Lots of stuff gets repeated …we are due a religious thread soon

I accept he did not help himself but bullies often pick victims because of how they react but that does not make it their fault

Yes it does. Everyone is responsible for their own actions and that includes their response to provocation

Any chance we can see your beautiful form and comment on it or will you call us all out for being sexist and tell us that is why you hate men?

You tell ’em Junky!
Go on, get stuck in! 😉

Have you not considered that this phrase was used to attack him

Yes. I’ve not considered it.

I always thought synesthesia would be a cool thing to experience, even if only briefly.

I recommend 1 microdot of LSD and “Echoes” by Pink Floyd. (Of course, I’ve no idea what that means…). 😉

Overdue, I’d say.

Can’t start it though. My forum life is hanging by a thread, apparently… 😀

PLease dont answer but what on earth do you expect if you keep being an arse to a moderator? They have been more patient than I would have been I am surprised you are not on a holiday right now TBH

3£dvgirl Refuses to offer a score but you made me look

I may need to work on my flirtation technique.

I genuinely just finished re-reading the epic pre-christmas religion thread we had last year… Really good in places! And it did remind me of one of the defining TJ characteristics- it could be really annoying to be on the same side as him in an argument 😆

It’s weird that this forum never really seems to do gun control, that’s the other staple food of discussion forums. It’s less fun without an active american contingent I suppose.

Seems fine to me. You’re going great guns, crack on.

Calm down dear.

keep being an arse to a moderator

That wasn’t it. And I didn’t, clever arse. 😛

We sort of did it once – a thread about clay pigeon shooting or air rifles or something to start with, some poster (who was it now?) popped up and decreed that such weapons were designed to kill therefore should be illegal. I think archery and boomerangs were at risk of being made illegal by the end.

Guns, eh? Isn’t it, hmm? Small kids in the high school, jumpers for goal posts. Cold, dead hands and all that.

God. He’s great isn’t he. I like baby jeebus and all. Smashing, both of ’em.
Does this amount to coercion? 8)

Naughty boy.

That’s a thread about gun control, it’s not a Gun Control Thread. You can tell if it’s the latter, there’ll be at least one person you can be completely sure is planning to shoot up a school. A gun control thread without a death threat hasn’t even left the blocks.

I’m wondering if threads like this are more of a barrier now to newbies feeling like this is the place for them, than the confrontational threads are

I’m wondering whether or not, seeing as the site is a MTB site, and although the chat forum is here, it’s mainly an MTB forum, newbies might actually join primarily for advice on and chat about bikes.

I’m also wondering what it is about people that makes them open threads they know they’re not going to like, only to the (a) get offended, or (b) comment on moaning about said thread.

i had a really enjoyable debate with an american guy on a fishing boat in new zealand about gun control. It was staggering the amount of firearms he owned “for personal defense”*
I managed to eek out of him that he’d only been burgled once and all they’d nicked were guns. I know it’s a cliche but he didn’t see the tinge of irony in that

*[American spelling used on purpose due to context]

As the Mods are commenting I’m commenting too..

I enjoyed many a Fred thread.
A Few TJ threads
Can’t remember a TSY thread.
And a couple of JuanSimon threads.

Was he related to

Yes I forgot about that 😆

I do recall withdrawing a few times when he turned up

you go to some grim parties JY.

Yeah – the bullies then picked on you as well.

6 pages & counting.
stw introspection at it’s finest.

Were you surprised when you opened the thread and saw what it was about?

stw introspection at it’s finest.

it’s been an interesting journey though the day 🙂

Haa looks like I killed it. Boom headshot!

One positive about this thread is that there hasn’t been the same playground boasting from the folk who tore into TJ every thread he posted on. Must be working as well as nobody would have been asking who TJ was a year ago.

Haa looks like I killed it. Boom headshot!

WTF is that?

Its a 6 page long thread and folk replied to your post but you are right is was just you that killed it 😕

I dont know which is odder that you want to claim a kill or that you think this is one

I’m sure he was joking around dude 🙂

Try explaining that the next morning… 😉

Wonder why mtb forums need so much moderating?

TJ says:

Please let them know that I’ve been in touch, I appreciate the support that I would not ever come back under another name

I would not ever come back under another name

He’s really committed to that tandem.

Y’know, after all this – the original question has not been answered.

What was the question? Was it about why TSY got banned?
