Let's Talk About Bullying.

When I’m drunk I tend to be introspective or quite randy.

From what I have heard about you on here you are always randy.

Does this mean you are always drunk?

It often appears so with your rambling posts.

😉

Accusing hora of being a Rambler? That really IS bullying.

Randy

and

Randier.

There are different levels to the state of readiness for randy.

I don’t feel bullied by hora’s randiness so much as sullied.

Only one letter difference.

This cannot be reconciled really but does illustrate the difficulties in reaching a consensus on what online behaviour is acceptable

Acceptable behaviour is dicated by the owners of the site and the mods. Where does consensus come in to it?

You never went on Chocolate Foot did you?

Acceptable behaviour is dicated by common decency and behaviour infront of your peers.

On a tattoo/motorbike site I bet its more lairy.

On a cycling website you’d expect everyone to be abit controlled.

and

Randier.

Sounds like a porn version of Dumb and Dumber 🙂

This.

The two forums I most frequent are this one and mlehworld. Behaviours and standards are completely different but are accepted by the contributors as “the norm”.

On a lighter note yesterday we came across three riders in a group – two were on Ibis full sus carbon and one on a ibis tranny. The bikes were dripping in kit as well 😯

Druidh on pistonheads you have the OXO-tower contributors and the normal type. Funnily they all co-exist happily!!

So in reality you have been bullied by mods into no longer expressing an opinion, one I might add I agree with and recall a banning incident involving precisely such an experience.
So the reality it could be argued here, that more often than not it’s the mods that are the bully.
Supression of free speech that at one time folk died to protect the right for..

yes our forefathers died so bell ends can behave like bellends on an uncensored interent forum…they died to protect your right to use hyperbole to the n th degree etc

You need to get some perspective – someone stopping you posting on their forum [ that others pay for] is hardly the end of democracy

Please tell me this is your sarcasm at work ..please let it be irony

On a related note to different standards on different fora, do we have a link to Hora’s Mumsnet raid, regarding …ahem… rear entry? Quite possibly the funniest thing on the internet

EDIT: FOUND IT! 😀

I have never seen this but I think I need to. Link please.

do we have a link to Hora’s Mumsnet raid, regarding …ahem… rear entry

How did I miss that! Linkification, please!

Junky, you already know the answer to that, I’m afraid.

Wow!

So is the @elfinsafety actually Elfin because most of this discussion is somewhat irrelevant otherwise? Can someone who knows him outside of STW confirm?

clubber. Why would anyone create one. That’d be worse than actually acting like that……all night and day.

So hora is the Naked Rambler is he? The fella that keeps getting nicked.

zokes – nearly 40? Really? I always assumed he was a student.

You can take it whichever way you like dear boy, I now have a twitter account so can become an **** like exelfinperson, I find this strangely liberating, so next time I go off on one and am condemned for it I shall live on and dig myself an even bigger hole..

er probably not that it will greatly interest you but it’s @derekrides of course and I shall use it to unveil the birth of my extensive range of Derek Rides fun cycling machines with which I fully intend to make my fortune – or not 😉

Crikey … are we still on the bullying?

FFS! Talking about expensive handbags amongst Nancy boys.

Move on, move on … ssshhhh … ssshhhh …

Joining the Overinflated Church of Unmerited Victimhood while you’re there?

Why thank you, I shall although in reality I already spring from just such a victim.

All tweets cleared down. Look at the history- there is previous ‘conversation’s’ etc there as a history.

Hora – can I request that instead of your investigation into tweets, you make yourself useful and go and start another thread on Mumsnet.

GO on, you know you want too….. 😉

Can you untweet?

Go on, hora. I don’t think there’s been one about bestiality yet 😀

You can delete your own tweets

Not a chance. Mumsnet are the ultimate mind ****.

Pistonheads led a raid. Mumsnet were basically Wraths. PH management had to calm them down as when disturbed they are unstoppable. Have you ever seen a angry hormonal pregnant woman?

He can delete all the tweets he likes, hundreds of people have read the jibes at Mark, Rocketdog, myself etc, they won’t forget, well they might but you see my point.

Make him do it, Binners.

it’s like the 3rd form trying to take on the upper 6th.

they’ll track you down for that hora and do unspeakable things to you whilst wearing sensible clothes that reflect their expanding waistlines.

I can’t make him do anything wrecker

I’ve already had his dinner money this morning, with what we like to refer too as wedgie-geddon. And then made him debase himself in the most degrading way imaginable. Trouble is…. he loves it!

Hmmmmmmmmm, actually…. perhaps if I threaten to start being nice to him……

All of the personal emails are still around too. 😐

The one implying about leaving teaching and children or ‘I’ve reported you for anti-semetic hate crimes to the Police’?

it’s like the 3rd form trying to take on the upper 6th.

For me, it was like trying to fight Obi Won’s mind control. 😆

TJ – Since I joined this forum a couple of years ago two members have stood out as bullies. Elfinsafety was one, and you are the other one. Different styles, but both bullies. I have to be fair, and point out that I don’t think you are nasty like he was, and perhaps don’t realise what you are like, but your behaviour is bullying in my eyes.

So when you feel like you are getting a lot of flak on a thread, maybe other people see a bully boy getting a taste of his own medicine and then crying about it? That’s how I see it, and I doubt I’m the only one.

I’m not sure the ‘I am right and my opinion should not be questioned’ approach of TJ is bullying. More just a misguided belief that he is the guardian of STW moral behaviour

TJ I’ve always said that if someone disagree’s with your point of view you’ll brow beat them/beat them with keyboard stamina.

Now me adding to Kenny’s post above isn’t reverse-bullying its just sometimes abit of introspective helps 🙂

Edit- yes as ^

I don’t think that TJ is a bully. He’s stubborn, will never admit he’s wrong and doesn’t know when to call it a day but he’s not a bully.
Elfin and Ernie are probably the worst culprits.

It’s boring bickering and drama like this that means I come on here less and less these days.

It’s a shame because there are quite a few genuinely really sound people on here.

and you are the other one.

As opne who has locked horns with TJ on more than one occasion, I don’t consider him a bully. Tiresom and rather amusing, yes, but a bully?
the thing you have to watch with TJ is how he uses the language and will stick to a miniscule point while avoiding everything else. You need to be aware that TJworld is very limited and the things that apply to TJ should apply or be applied to the world in general.
You need to recognise that it is a world of doing as TJ says and not as TJ does.
When all else fails accept that he will call you a fool and try telling you that you don’t know what you’re talking about.
When this fails he’ll claim you’re a troll.
When this fails he flounces.
If you follow this you’ll stay sane.
😆
