Cpt Kernow Posted November 25, 2002 Share Posted November 25, 2002 At least you could have waited till someone didnt get the humour of that post before locking it. All the the other posters had replied in good humour and no one seemed upset. Ive seen posts with much more outright slurs (directed at me. e.g. you are either blind or a liar) go unlocked. Is there no room on this forum for a good dose of provocative english outright sarcasm. Hmm Maybe it a yank thing? I remember all the fights (I won them all easily) with Frat boys I got into in my exchange year. They all had a major sarcasm bypass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demoss Posted November 25, 2002 Share Posted November 25, 2002 I'm a Yank (well, Californian really, which is an entirely different critter from those stuffy Easterners ) and I thought it was funny. I'd have thought it was funnier if you'd sent me your setup for the RD tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you guys were serious, all Yanks are serious all the time, arent we? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Radley Posted November 25, 2002 Share Posted November 25, 2002 I thought it was amusing and I'm a Yank. But then again, I'm from the north coast and we're all a bit daft at the outset of winter. Pretty buggy all though winter, if you must know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt Kernow Posted November 25, 2002 Author Share Posted November 25, 2002 Am now battleing against temptation to copy and paste locked thread straight into thread it was satarising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmatt Posted November 25, 2002 Share Posted November 25, 2002 I thought it was very funny BUT you would be amazed at how people tend to look at the header titles of threads before reading them and since we just released the patch I dont want to clutter the forum with lots of spurious bug reports, even if meant in jest.
