A great strip. There is a bit of info at www.skobfc.com and you can check out how D Ryan (ex St Kilda) and A Ukovic (ex Collingwood) helped SKOBFC to defeat Old Trinity yesterday on their way to the 2002 flag.

Yeah I saw they got home by a few goals.

Ever headr of the word "homosexual" ??????

"***, ***, ***"

McCartney5

Isn't that stating an opinion?

So you lied, and made up something you thought would be funny, speaks volumes for your character.

and Pinky, aka McCartney5, inferring that Bluey and I are mates, HA, you couldn't be further from the truth

sprouting labels such as "gutless", yet you do not name who you are referring to, in my day son, that type of action wasn't only labelled, but also branded as "GUTLESS"

In your day? Asgardian in your day dinosaurs roamed the earth.

Asgardian I learnt about your day in history, now why don't you try to learn about ours?

Made up, implied, slight difference. Funny, not attempting to rather a serious comment on your attitude.

BD1954 - Time to clean up that avatar.

Is this a joke????

It is hardly pornography. Tell me one person that was offended by my avatar. Or is it just because I complained about McCartney5 being banned???

I'll nominate the 2nd one.

the guy had something like 1500 posts and I don't remember being offended once....but he had some interesting football points.......maybe I'm not a delicate little flower.

If that quote is all it takes to get booted then that is pathetic. nobody is going to drop over dead after being called gay.

If that was the case I'd be long gone after reading the schit they put out about Americans ...and Bomber supporters!

Dobbing in a post is really really lame.....just ignore it.
If I believe in one thing it is free speech and as the wise man said (maybe Denis Conetti)"I might not believe in what you say but I will defend to the death your right to say it".

I am not looking for P.C. clones of myself...I'm willing to take everyone's view...wet T-Shirt avatars and all....I want to talk footy.

No, its not because of your complaints. My Stacy Keibler avatar was deleted (before yours) by Bluey as well.

Anyway, there's no point arguing about it, its his board and if he deems it inappropriate then so be it.

Yes, I learnt history at school too Rohan. Not sure why you would bother posting that though? I'm sure most of us did.

All this energy and time defending a name on a net site that one person from b/f has actually met.

Maybe that's part of it Fred. Maybe nobody wants to meet him. This IS the internet. Most people we talk to we'll never meet. For me, this is like an escape from the real life. I can come in here, and read stuff posted by McCartney5, or Bulldog1954, or Rocco Jones or anyone else and just laugh. It's not meant to be real, it's not meant to be taken seriously.

I think maybe the the mental state of the people who DO take it personally and who DO get offended needs to be looked at a little more closely than those posting in jest.

What does having met them got anything to do with whether they should be banned or not?

Maybe he's a **** and is offended by seeing so much female flesh.

I was told, about the removal of mine, something like 'a series of half naked women in your avatar is not acceptable'.

Not much i can do about it though.

No, but the site will fall over dead if that sort of behaviour is not controlled (oh no! I said a dirty word!) as there are a number of children who post on this board, and I am sick of parents e-mailing me saying how they cannot let their children on here as there is so much gutter language.

Accusing someone of being homosexual is unacceptable on two levels:
a) it is an attempt to embarrass a person by casting "aspersions" on their sexuality;
b) it is an attack on homosexuals as a group i.e. that if you are gay, your opinions are not worth listening to.

McCartney5 has been yelling '***' at a disturbing rate and I am no longer going to put up with it. It is childish and brings the tone of any discussion down.

Case closed.
