Any warning recieved shoud give people a clue.

I think my email junks STW ones – plus I’m hardly ever logged into it. So the warning won’t come in time for a lot of the lunacy. I don’t think the current system in place is visible enough.

Yeah, I’m guilty of it as well.

I really do think some kind of award system for posts would be a really great way of telling each other when we’ve gone too far. Instead of hitting report, we can tag each others posts with say something like the following emoji… 8O , and each post can build up a collection of reactions from other users – I think that would give a good indicator in regards to how your post has been viewed by others. The problem with the report button is that it’s not a visible indicator of your behaviour until you get banned or warned. I don’t even get warning emails/PM’s either.

I had someone off here use my email addy to sign me up for a load of spam sites. Hence its hidden now

Where does it stop being banter and start being abusive? Emails are clearly abusive, but what about the forum? A lot of us come here because STW can be pretty funny at times.

I do think upvote/downvotes are a good idea, like Pinkbike and Reddit or the awards at arrse eg “Funny” “Insightful” “Show-Again-Braincell” – so we can self moderate. I reckon that might allow us all to back off a bit, before we all go over the top in more heated threads.

I think the easiest thing to do is ban everyone who’s contributed to this thread for a month.

Please guv, I promise to be good.

Yeah, that’s a bit much. Who cares if you get banned or your thread gets locked, life should be a bit of a laugh. It’s a shame that the banter devolves to the point that people are actually sending each other abusive emails.

Lefties have an undeniable tendancy to live in echo chambers and it’s highly amusing seeing them trigger on STW whenever they’re challenged with facts over feelings, and long may this continue.

Well played, great to see some parody accounts on here. :D

Point in him the direction of the Navy, so he can have one in every port? :D

Philippine/Palawan beaches are the best in the region, by a country mile.

The food on the whole, is shit though.

Yeah, I’m a huge bellend – I’ve ammassed quite a ban tally. I’ll try to be more polite.

Cougar in a previous life. :P

If its good enough for KTM to win multiple world supercross events on, it’s good enough for Orange.

CG, those links you posted as evidence a while back….

However, in these two trials, treatment with intravenous and oral antibiotics for 90 days did not improve symptoms more than placebo.

did you even read them? Don’t post stuff based on what you’ve read on some hippy forums and then preface your post by claiming ignorance as a defence.

I’ll be proud when team human does away with countries

Why? Culturally the wotld would have to subscribe to one form form of governance. Would it necessarily be democratic? And why is diversity of governance a bad thing?

You’ve got more problems from the the plastics on your phone leaching through your trousers and into your bollocks….. :D

Go and have a gander around and maybe post on the ARRSE forum, they might help you out.

You didn’t bother with UOTC then?

as others said, plan your own expedition and go with a clear aim of what skills you want to improve.

I’m not entirely sure Aracer, but cohabitation can certainly be used in a spousal visa application. It requires a lot more evidence but it is doable.

It’s made all the more confusing to me as a verbal contract to cohabit can leave you in a similar situation legally as being married – and can actually be used for the granting of a spousal visa.

Surely cheating is breakibg a verbal contract?

Forgery of course, should be illegal – it shouldn’t be 6 months in the slammer in this case though.

You’re not thinking too hard about the consequences of doing that to two women (perhaps two families) if you’re not seeing the seriousness of that.

So every woman that cheats should go to prison, if getting aeay with cheating by lying counts as abuse?

I’m not just talking about conviction rates, but sentencing

Of course, cherry picking one article doesn’t constitute a general trend.

That’s all great. Apart from the fact that bigamy is also illegal for women.

Don’t let that hold you back though

Honestly, out of interest…

How many women have gone down for bigamy? Do they get similar jail time?

Because judges and politicians are usually aging old patriarchal men who still harbour the idea that women are fluffy balls of fluffyness that need to be treated with kids gloves, that all men are evil bastards at heart and the only way to tame them is good wholesome Christian living.

We’re living in weird times, whereby on the one hand women are constantly fighting for equality and not to be treated like kids whilst on the other hand – laws like this are exploited.

Loads of museums are going shit, RAF Hendon is headed by a civvie who seems to be 1) Intent on rewriting history and 2) turning it into a daycare centre and corporate hospitality centre.

Good.

Loving the snowflake Nigel Farage moaning about freedon of speach, its a free market ****.

I’d love to know the sequence of initial racism followed by wanton stupidity at H&M that led to this. The internal root cause analysis would be an epic tale.

OP, Spaniels are hardy **** yet wimps at the same time. Ours used to get limps all the time, after hard charging pheasants into brambles…. no **** given…. but god…. if they got seeds in their paws…. they woukd get completely beside themselves with the brevity of life etc.

Microplastics getting washed out to sea and dumping/littering. A lot of the world is ignorant to it (poorly educated) and too poor to care, stunning beaches ruined by plastic waste in the Philippines was quite eye opening to me. However, senseible plastic disposal isn’t as high up the list of importance as things like basic **** healthcare. Quite understandably, recycling and a clean environment is a pretty privileged western thing to have. When the world becomes more equitable things will change, but westerners would prefer to blame environmental issues on evil Chinese people etc because…. they eat dogs etc… and theres obvs too many of the **** commies etc.

Budweiser ads with the Chameleons spring to mind.

Landfilling isn’t really the main issue, the total landmass it takes up is tiny. It ending up in the ocean is the big **** rampaging elephant in the room.

cherry picking

I found some articles that said the opposite but I’m not posting them

LOL

You can probably thank GxP guidlines for that wrapping Mowgli.

Possibly.

Not sure about toothbrush regs.

My POC kneepads do this to me.

Reads like clickbait

So, what is really going on? When I interviewed social scientists all over the world – from São Paulo to Sydney, from Los Angeles to London – I started to see an unexpected picture emerge. We all know that every human being has basic physical needs: for food, for water, for shelter, for clean air. It turns out that, in the same way, all humans have certain basic psychological needs. We need to feel we belong. We need to feel valued. We need to feel we’re good at something. We need to feel we have a secure future. And there is growing evidence that our culture isn’t meeting those psychological needs for many – perhaps most – people. I kept learning that, in very different ways, we have become disconnected from things we really need, and this deep disconnection is driving this epidemic of depression and anxiety all around us.

No shit Sherlock, I worked that out when I first got high. MrJesus though, spent years researching to get to this point and decided to write a book to tell us all about his revelation.

Scot, you forgot Godwins law.

I prefer rectally administered cocaine, suspended in a solution of vodka.

**** amateurs.

Tom Hanks.

Aye, good, but not great.

Lacked the depth of Bojack Horseman, the writing of Archer, or the batshit mentalness of Squidbillies

Oh **** my ears it sounds like **** Sting meets the Chores.

Cranboy, you’re engaging ninfan using logic, you’re crazy man – don’t do it. You weren’t in the Brexit thread man, you don’t know!
