Re: Signings
In fairness to Twenty Eight his comment about Jungle Drums seemed obviously like some sort of joke. Not hilarious, but clearly not serious. I'd put it down to an Internet misunderstanding.
Anyway, whilst it's yet to be seen how good the loanees are, I've got a feeling in me bones that Coley has got the missing pieces to his jigsaw. Div 1 here we come!!!

Re: Signings
To add some background to Twenty Eight's remark: someone equally innocuously used the term "jungle drums" a few years at a council meeting which bizarrely led to an allegation of racism. An investigation was held, at great expense, and the allegation was upheld. A later judgement (presumably more wasted money) overturned the ruling.

And what, other than a waste of public money to the sound of political jungle drums, do we expect from councillors, lawyers, and judges ?

I don't need jungle drums and by the way that is racist and you should be banned.[/QUOTE]
Now LD it's your turn to elucidate and tell us all just where the humour exists or is implied in this sentence ?.
In no way could anyone accept it as an internet understanding, being nothing but cheap and thoughtless words intended to hurt an innocent contributor to our forum.
I totally agree that there is no hilarity whatsoever in the line... and in the absence of this I
would repeat that asking for AccyMad to be banned from our Forum is quite clearly a serious move !.

Re: Signings
If I said that Accymad should be banned because she's gone blackface with her profile photo and that's racist (ie, her picture of a penguin) I'd assume people would not take that as a serious allegation of racism? They might then conclude it was some very poor attempt at humour since no other explanation exists.
The humour may be directed at the lunacy in which some innocent words or acts lead to allegations of racism these days. Rather than humour intended to be levelled at Accymad.
As I said, the Internet is not a great place in which to understand what was implied. I can understand why Accymad was appalled about what was written by the way. Maybe if Twenty Eight had followed up with a clarification that would have helped considerably.

Re: Signings
If 28's "you should be banned" was meant as a joke, and I think on reflection it probably was, a smiley might have helped to make that clear. Without one, my first reaction to 28 (who regularly annoys me anyway with his implications of insider knowledge) having a go at Di (who generally makes me laugh) was actual anger.
It's not what you say, it's the way you say it.

Re: Signings
How am I supposed to know who you all are ?
I didn't even know Accymad was a female ! Not that it makes the slightest bit of difference.
Smileys ? Too old for that rhubarb.
Clearly I am an annoyance and just rub you lot up the wrong way.
Every time I put anything you have a jibe - but that's acceptable.
I poke a bit of fun back and I'm ...........................
Happy to apologise to "Di" if she's taken it personally as an official request (as if).
So let's make it easy. I said before I'd leave the forum so that's what I'll do and just leave my membership in read only format.
Adios.

Welcome to the Stanley, Mr. Johnson.
