Seil Chat

its just that I've got this thing about short, dog-faced, overweight, four-eyed, know-it-all type people.

Care to be more specific?

I don't particularly care for lanky spoilt know-nothing public schoolboys with plummy accents and nothing better to do than whinge on about their racial purity, but that's just me. (Don't know if that describes you or not Shankers, but it is how I imagine you for some reason).

On behalf of all glasses-wearing people under five foot eight with a BMI over 25 who may be reading this I offer an open warning that any further posts by you which could be construed as racist, sizist or mocking the afflicted will be summarily deleted.

Any criticism of this policy by anyone other than LS can be made by PM directly to me - I will be happy to discuss it. OTOH, any posts slagging off the administration or moderation of this forum on the forum are against its terms and conditions, will not be tolerated and will simply vanish without further comment from me.

Many issues have been raised in the course of this thread which may provide starting points for new discussions, but I feel that this thread itself has run its course, so I have locked it to save certain posters from temptation.
