OMG. Who are you kidding. That is not the normal way you would converse in English.

Can you show said fancy words I used? And how you would rephrase my post so it would not look as pretentious as you claim it does? People learn, people change. Perhaps you would prefer I resort to a more familiar tone? Or jargon? Without a doubt that would make it easier for I to blend with the atmosphere of this place, but I stand faithful to myself. No. I fail to realize what the issue is.

Epic reply :D

Alright. Just to clarify, I can't believe this is being discussed. I prefer desist over stop, have always used it, and think it's far from being a fancy word. Same with tosh. I may give you what follows, but it was innocent. Regarding the last sentence, you will never read me explicitly mentioning bans and members together. So I like what mine looks like. ''Getting away with it'' is not not necessarily dodging a ban.

Cheers.

Why do you care if I call some random clinic poster a sockpuppet when you dont even post there yourself? seems slightly odd.
 
Since I fear there may be some misunderstanding going on, I will translate flos post for little mac so that he understands fully what it was about and they can both be on the same page.

Permit me to luxurate in Krebs contribution if I so please, will thou not? My anticipative gratitude for complying with this supplication.

Oh heavens! Who do you expect to dupe? That is not the customary way to speak the Queens.

Surprisingly, I don't care just about myself. And it's accusations in general I was adressing, which go beyond the frontiers of the clinic. I can understand it seems odd.

Why do you publically call people sockpuppets when you have been told not to do so by the moderators?

Because they deserve it. These are posters that spent all their time trolling and making personal attacks in almost every single post. Me correctly calling them sockpuppets is nothing in comparison.

Play the ball not the man here.

Post the evidence where I have spent "all my time trolling and making personal attacks in almost every single post" or get off the pitch.

And your personal certainty is the measure of absolutely nothing. Nada. Zilch.

Nothing, nada, nought, zilch ...

I guess you added nought there. But still ;)

Wow! 2 words that are the same, and are well known words for nothing. Guess that proves I'm 'Martin' - despite the fact you intimated to someone the other day they may be.

Heavens, I have also used the following words : evidence, ball, man, play, the - does that mean I am a sockpuppet of you??? I guess not because you're so similar to another poster, maybe the two of you are sockpuppets of each other ...

*** This is a serious request ***

Can the Moderators consider creating a new subforum for fanboys/fangirls, so they can satisfy their urge to praise their rider(s)? It's getting really ridiculous that a discussion forum becomes a place to posting pictures and videos that don't add anything in the Professional Road Racing forum. It's becoming really toxic out there.

Thank you Cineteq for a Mod related post in an otherwise sea of petty and mostly immature bickering. Not a bad idea IMHO and I will raise it with the other Mods.

I think it's a good idea.

I don't see the issue. What is the problem with me posting some highlight videos in the AC thread to distract attention from cineteq's baiting? I know many people enjoy watching these. I don't see how that is "toxic". I would never post anything in a fanboy/fangirl subforum. If I want to go all fangirl crazy about Alberto, I'll do it on twitter, not on here.

Not to mention a fanboy subforum would look ridiculous on a serious forum :eek: what is this, a One direction forum? :eek:
