Oz, land of sunshine, sport and sexism

Well as I stated there is, and has been for years, a steady stream of racist post's and comments on this site. That's a fact. Do I think the site is full of racists, no but I think there are a few more than I'd expect to normally see and I suspect that there are a few less people from different backgrounds than I'd expect for that same reason - they're probably put off by the level of casual racism exhibit on this board.

And b. No, Churchill doesn't wind me up - he's something to dig at when the working day is going slower than normal. I'd respect him a bit more if he could put up an argument, but he just keeps ducking them.

He doesnt need to to, because you keep biting. And if you are going to throw the race card around then why are you not critial of shaunboy who manages to give as good as he gets?

LOL, so commenting on there being a racist element on this board is throwing the race card around is it? Well sorry to burst your bubble but it doesn't work like that - there's a racist element on this board which anyone who's been here for any length of time can't deny. Whenever I see it I'll comment against it. That's not throwing the race card around, that's simply applying a standard of acceptable behaviour. IMO.

And I've been critical of SB plenty of times, he can vouch for that. I don't as rule try to pick fights (Some might disagree), but I won't be quiet either when something or someone crosses the line - and that's something I apply as much in RL as on a BB.

I thought the mods said they could find no evidence of racism on this board.

They obviously aren't looking hard enough.

I played chess round a particularly PC LibDem's house over the weekend. All 32 pieces were grey.

Snaw is implying. You are inferring.

Thank you. Correction duly noted.

Being rather defensive there, aren't you?

Btw, I didn't vote for you as forum policeman. If you were that good and respected they'd make you a moderator. (Then we'd have some fun!)
