Title: WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: Remco on July 30, 2003, 13:19:19: At the end of 2002 I opened a Dutch Land Rover forum (www.landroverforum.nl)

Now I have 25 registered users and 40 posts...

This forum has only been active for a couple of days and:
45 registered users and 203 posts...

What's wrong with the Dutch Land Rover owners???? What do you have that we don't???

:cry: :cry: :cry:

Remco

Oh well... at least it's fun being here :lol:

Post by: Agaman on July 30, 2003, 22:58:17: Mr Moderator

I thought there was to be no swearing/bad language on this forum! :? :? :?
Title: WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: strapping young lad on July 30, 2003, 23:05:21: who is swearing?
Title: WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: madtam on July 31, 2003, 08:04:47: I think the thread title might be considered swearing by many people.
The same thought regarding swearing had occured to me as well but I didn't like to mention it. I am not at all prudish and the other forum I often spend time on is fully no holds barred, but if this is going to be no swearing then perhaps it should start as it means to go on.
To be honest, calling a section "The Bar" and then having no swearing seems a bit odd though?
Title: WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: Remco on July 31, 2003, 11:57:26: Just changed the title... Is this better? :-)

Never crossed my mind that b*gg*r would be seen as swearing by the British :lol: :wink:

Title: WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: Andy. on July 31, 2003, 17:29:36: A section called "The Bar", well I prefer it to the "Rover Return" never did like Betties Hot Pots :D

We could of gone up market and called it the Wine Bar or The Lounge or for our continental members The Cafe.

Not the Queen Vic otherwise we'd all be writing in cockney slang, but we could of gone for the WoolPack which would of made Dyfed feel more at home :lol:
Title: WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: BrumLee on July 31, 2003, 17:34:43: Andy, we could change the name as many times as you've changed yours :lol: :lol: :P

The Woolpack would be ok as there's Landies in the opening credits, better than a mingin' cat or the defunk Millenium Dome :lol:

Title: WHY
Post by: Agaman on July 31, 2003, 20:16:10: Lee futher to your earlier posting the swear word used as a title cannot be termed a mild referance .Take the time to look up the definition in a dictionary.Iam as broad minded as the next ,having spent the first 15 yrs of my working life on the buildings ,but it specificly states no swaering and you failed to moderate this offencife term .This forum is acessable by minors and so to prevent any further abusive or ofencive language being used Iam making a polite but very firm stand

Title: WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: Thrasher on July 31, 2003, 20:22:59: Normally such words would be removed by the word filter. But I am not going to use that for the moment, let's just see if everyone can moderate their own language :)

Also, Remco is Dutch...so please bear with him <grin>

Also, when you signed up you clicked to say you were over 13...maybe I should change it <grin>
Title: WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: BrumLee on July 31, 2003, 20:26:10: Jerry

Your note has been acted on and I am not sole moderator on this forum. Your point was acted on as soon as you made it, and the author apologised.

The word is one of the first words most youngters repeatedly say when first starting to talk.

Depending in which part of the world you are there are different meanings:

:arrow: A wretch; -- sometimes used humorously or in playful disparagement.

:arrow: One who installs electronic bugs.

Post by: strapping young lad on July 31, 2003, 20:48:08: hang on there is no need to be petty here, its a free club, a lot of you know why it was setup so lets not start another post whinge.

jerry fair comment but as neil says, you have to be 13 or over to sign here. and ive yet to meet a kid that age who does not swear.

young uns under 10 may not understand their implications but the older they get the more they understand and at 13 i hope they do.

i doubt burger (-r +g) is as offensive as words such as .. well you know which ones i mean.

some people dont like hearing swear words, some dont mind it (like myself) but if i didnt like it i would ignore it, its a choice we all have.

besides if you arent happy with things take it off group and discuss privately with lee not publicly as it can get other people's backs up.

just as green laning

tread carefully :wink:

this forum is a bit of fun for everyone i hope not a soapbox.

Good comment

N.B USERS: I am not sole moderator so don't fire everything in my direction because you want a reaction, if I feel the need to pass on your comments to a colleague to deal with, I will do so and their decision on the matter will be final.

Post by: strapping young lad on August 01, 2003, 00:11:07: jerry/lee can you discuss dictionaries off the forum as its boring.

as per previous posting jerry if you are unhappy with comments made take it up with lee or the other moderators as its their job to look after us here! :wink:
Title: WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: BrumLee on August 01, 2003, 00:52:49: Andy,

there are six moderators in total so the forum can be monitored most hours during any 24 hours and swift action can be taken. It's sad that forums need to be monitored, but that's the Administators terms of use.

Post by: BrumLee on August 19, 2003, 12:24:21: Hi Vincent

You do speak funny in Northampton, they speak nothing like that in Breda, I could understand the locals there :lol: :lol:

Hope you're well
Title: WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: Vincent Hartman on August 19, 2003, 12:47:01: It is probably. because I am from Zwolle, located North of the rivers. The accents are quite different.

I am well thank you.

If you are the Lee I think you are then you' ve have given yourself plenty of spare time back ?

Vincent

P.s.: the people in Breda you know are English I suppose?
Title: WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: BrumLee on August 19, 2003, 16:08:32: Hi Vincent

Yes I'm the Lee your thinking of :D I spent some time in Breda and enjoyed it immensely. Very nice people and most of them speaking English, which made it easy. One complaint thought, when you ask for bacon you get ham :? but I can live with that :lol:

hoop om u spoedig te zien
