Seems a tad harsh to my way of thinking. Not like he was avoiding the filter.
Always admired the way Scaly genuinely seems to not give a toss what others think about him. A cock at times, but a strangely likeable cock.

If there's one of the least admirable character traits around, that's it.

What did he do? Was he warned before being banned at all? I thought warnings were the procedure but I have seen a few people banned without warnings in the recent past which seems a bit harsh to me. A warning should always be given IMO.

Yeah, because I've given so many demonstrations of not giving a damn about what anyone thinks of me, haven't I?
![]() I couldn't care less what you think of me, nor a few others (most of whom are probably going to be doing their familiar trick of crawling out of the woodwork and airing their views on me in this thread, if it doesn't get closed before they get there), but giving a good account of myself to the majority is very important to me and, dare I say it, most right-thinking people. "I'll act as I see fit and to hell with the fact that most deem it unacceptable" is a deplorable character trait, as I say. Last edited by Richard; 18-02-2010 at 01:23 PM. |

What's your view Richard? Was he racist in your opinion? He studied in a school in a city near Kolkata and I had visited that school once for a 5 day camp. I had chatted a lot with him a few years back on msn and he seemed perfectly normal.
