Yotatech forum racist warning (banned)

Fair do's. TBH, I think it's probably better that I keep a lower profile (at least for the time being) lest I make a t1t of myself again...

I am almost certain that's a given

If this thread proves only one thing, it is, people are easily offended, it doesnt take much. Its difficult to judge intent in this medium sometimes, but nothing in the thread offended me, as I dont believe there was intent. I might be offended at someone calling me a sweaty or a porridge wog if I thought that their intent was to offend, although Im not sure. I guess I dont offend as easily as some. I tend to think that theres worse happening in the world than a bit of silly name calling to get too excited about it.

Over kill is an understatement.....

i reckon we should all back up Dieselboy on Yota and see what happens :P

More mischief for us....

[KERRSURF]

Fair comments. My apologies for any offence caused. None was intended and I honestly didn't expect the reaction that I got. I was wrong to post what I did. I do hope that anyone who was offended accepts my unreserved apology.

Apology accepted, not that I was that offended mind, been called much worse.

[KERRSURF]

As for the original thread....well.......rules is rules. LOL

[KERRSURF]

Get off of here, the rain has stopped get your arse out and get Andys ecu. Then when that don't work get the spill control out.

I dont know how I've managed to miss this post for so long.
Not really sure how the porridge thing relates to Scotsmen, but I'm sure one of my friends north of the border will explain it to me next weekend.

OK
To brief you on American sentiments

Jap is a derogatory term in the U.S.
But so is saying"shut up" to someone, I say it here all the time, but you wouldn't tell it to someone you liked in the states.

Po-ta-toe
Po- tato

Why?

[blackpoolsparks]

Why?

dont know, just is.
I always find it awkward myself calling someone a scoucer or a cockny

[Albannach]

Just for the record. I personally wasn't offended by Rustinho's comment. But I do believe it was a deliberate attempt at making an offensive, anti Scottish, comment.

Goran, it's 'scouser'. I know, I am one. Personally, couldn't give a monkeys what anyone calls me. You 'yanks' are a bunch of oversensitive divas though

I dont mind "yank", what I dont appreciate is when someone rhymes it.....and calls me "ceptic tank"

I don't like being called a Jock, but I despise being called a Sweaty (sock).

And it's 'Cockney'

[Apache]

And it's 'Cockney'

Or if you're a yank, its 'cock-er-nee', as in 'chim-en-ee' sweep.

On second thought, you're right.
I dont particularly care for "Yank" either

all you Pomey B*****ds

- go on correct that spelling mistake as well...
