What's become of Funky Has he given us the slip And ridden off on his 916 On some outlandish trip Our forum is not quite the same The postings have become too tame Where are you Funky, let us know Because we miss your postings so.
Thanks Glidd.I hadn't quite finished my posting when you replied. My apologies to the great Robert Browning!
He just got abusive and his BBC stance was pure hypocrisy. After being called a c##t a few times, i figured i would be better off ignoring him. He cant debate without resorting to personal abuse. Besides as a TV license holder, his BBC stuff was pure theft. Why should I subsidise his stealing. Shame as I agree he could be quite amusing at times but he could not debate or give rational argument without eventually just calling someone a prick or a c##t. Theres no need for personal abuse unless its witty and clever. He was neither.
WOW... I must have missed this BBC thread... I tend to notice that any vagely political thread just seems to have a 1 'page' rule when it seems to stay civil, then gets really nasty generally so I ignore all of them if I can.
I got on okay with him, and I'm sure he's around and wish him well. Is my job easier at the moment? maybe Oh can I just make sure that this doesn't turn into a witch hunt thread. We've had those before and they were never nice.
It won't be a witch hunt until page 2... tht's when it always gets nasty... ;-) Seriously though... hope he is okay, not good to loose people who contribute (apart from the 'C' word... )
I find it quite entertaining when some people resort to foul personal abuse - it's just their elliptical way of admitting they have lost the argument. If it reached the extent of plausible threats of violence, that would be going a little too far.
