Ok, why is this thread still open? It's going nowhere and is serving purely for MH and Tribesman to throw insults at each other?

For entertainment? :hmmm:

I give up. I just give up.

Rest assured the thread is being monitored and any clear breaches of the rules will be dealt with but currently there is nothing identifiable as being seriously over the top.

Entertainment wise?.....possibly to some plus the fact there have been no post reports.

Hopefully things will remain calm and common sense and civility will eventually prevail.

I'm going with "for keeping them in one thread and not having them hunt each other down in other threads and thus have many threads where they throw insults at each other". Plus of course the educational value.

:D

Don't take it seriously.

When i got into this i new exactly what the outcome will be...i did it just to spend some time and chuckle while doing some job on my PC.

Sorry if caused any discomfort to anyone yet since it is internet it is also easy to ignore threads or people......if you wish.
Look at as research lol.

I thought personal attacks were against the rules? Especially since two pages ago they were asked by two members of the moderator team to stop the name calling and yet both ignored it.

I'm just getting somewhat confused about what is acceptable and what is not anymore, I mean what swearwords are acceptable? Wank and Piss seem to be just fine and so does crap, but other words earn a caution from the moderators.

I think I need a break before I land up like Tak.

Be sure to at least check the General Games every once in a while in summer in case you take one. :03:

Aye, I doubt I'll go completely, I'm too addicted to this place to do that, but I think it's probably best to step back from certain threads in GT for a bit. :yep:

My guideline is not what I consider good or bad, but what the auto-swear-bots allow. If it's censored by the site, then it's on "the list". There are words I would not use in normal talk that get right by the bots, so they are tolerated. I still remember when someone complained about Jim using "Bassum", and that's just getting around the language rules. Somebody else had to point out that "Bastard" is not a prohibited word, probably because it originates as a very legitimate word, it you'll pardon the pun.

If it was up to me we'd all talk like church deacons, except for the part where I don't use that kind of language in polite company, but if my computer messes with me? Look out!

I hope that helps explain it. If not, then #(&%@^^$*&#!*!!! :O:

Methinks it also depends on the situation to a certain extent (though I'm no mod, so not up to me to decide). I mean, I have used some pretty loose language in my AARs for humorous purposes every once in a while and no one has ever complained. Mind you, though, you'd be surprised to know how much I censor myself.

The problem I have with the interpretation with the bombings in Turkey so far is that Assad has nothing to gain from doing like that, only to lose.

Let's wait, run silent and listen for a while.

Could be that it turns out that that the rebels are behind the car bombings, to provoke a NATO reaction from which they would benefit.

I also do not rule out that the Turkish MIT is behind it (their National Intelligence Organisation). Again, to provoke an intervention or blackmail NATO for support to Turkey. Erdoghan has a proven motive in that regard - he wants the intervention since long. He also has shown to be unscrupulous when it comes to provoking and manipulating, even getting his people killed in ordering these stunts. Turkish jets into Syria, Gaza flotilla - to name just the two most popular examples...

Before you think that is conspiration theory, get some information on the MIT's record and reputation. It's nobody you want to deal with, really. Also, I do not claim that it was the MIT for sure. I only say I do not rule it out until they are proven innocent, and that the Turkish side has a motive to give events such a dramatic twist.
