No, that's not required.Originally posted by Old Greg View PostI am glad you are aware of your rights. But maybe you do not know the difference between an order and encouragement. I am sorry if it seemed to you that I was giving you orders! Do you need some help to understand the difference?
Oh don't despair, I simply wanted to understand the reasoning behind the change in your sign-off.
Even if you were to give an order on CUK, it's almost certain, that anyone on the receiving end (and everyone reading it) would just think you a pillock.

Best get back to your language textbooks, as it seems you have misinterpreted my post.Originally posted by Eirikur View PostNo, but I have no problems unlike you
I asked if OG wanted me to not keep it up anymore, I did not however, state I had a problem either way.
HTH BIDI
Ps. You have plenty of problems, as we can all see from your posts and ban(s), etc.

"Come to my birthday party" - can be used as an order, depending on tone & context.Originally posted by Old Greg View PostWe must be careful not to make Bean sad again. If someone says to him, 'Come to my birthday party,' or, 'Have a nice weekend', he thinks that he is being ordered in contravention to his rights.
Or do you disagree?Originally posted by Old GregI admit I'm just a lazy, lying cretinous hypocrite and must be going deaf♕Keep calm & carry on♕Comment

It's just that before, you seemed to be giving orders to 'keep it up' and have now stopped, why?Well done, Bean! Before it seemed to you that 'Keep it up,' was ordering you. And now you know that it wasn't ordering you. You have learned something! That is really good. Keep it up!Originally posted by Bean View PostNo, that's not required.
