Fuck knows- I've finally read the thread for myself and there doesn't seem to be anything worse than the usual piss-take.  As usual, the biggest moralising whiners are the ones most likely to gang up on someone else when it suits them...

There's another thread somewhere that (if I recall correctly) had piss-take of the bloke's website.  To my eternal shame*, I'm actually involved in that particular bit of mockery.







*if by 'eternal', you mean 'not a fucking bit', of course.

I think that the word you're looking for is probably 'sarcastic'...

;)

I think you're more than a little bit guilty of assumption, generalisation and certainly hypocrisy, there- but, I think I'll just bow to your superior logic on this one anyway...

That's actually quite a good example.  Poor old Vernon gets quite a slating here- probably worse than poor old Steve Savile was getting before he turned up- and I've no doubt he'd get a proper bashing if he ever actually turned up.  Is that any less wrong?

Rhetorical, btw.

;)

"Not the board's finest hour"

Not to worry, I'm sure it's had plenty of competition in the past and will have plenty more in the future...

To be honest, if Frazer had a site like that, I'd be the first one taking the piss out of him...

I see your point, but still raise you this:http://www.stevensavile.com/ss_images/Steve_portrait.jpg">

And just so that we're equally clear- I still find this picture hysterically funny.http://www.stevensavile.com/ss_images/Steve_portrait.jpg">

To be honest, if the battering he got here is the worst he's ever had on the internet- for whatever reason- then he's doing pretty well.  Plenty of people have the piss taken out of them on this board and, by and large, there's usually nothing more than a cheap laugh at the root of it.  The unusual thing in this case is that the bloke having the piss taken out of him actually turned up.

If I was Steven Saville, I don't think I'd take it too much to heart* and I'd be more likely to put it down to the fact that the piss takers either had to up their game upon his arrival, or shuffle off in an embarrassed silence (and just so we're clear, I'd have been a full fledged piss taker myself if I'd been around- so I'm not labelling anyone else here).

Is there an emoticon for shrugging?







*of course, names would be noted for a rainy day...

"Moore's never allowed Ian Gibson to proceed with Halo Jones IV, has he?"

I'm probably wrong, but I don't think that's the reason.  Anybody know for sure?

Now THAT is an excellent point.

You'll never be in my gang- not so long as you're spoiling my art collection...

;p

Well... I can't be bothered to read what I've missed, but as a charter member of the Big Three (of which there are five*), I think I'm pretty much duty bound to take the piss out of any outsider.

At the very least, I'm morally obliged to scoff at anything FATC has to say- based on the automatic assumption that whatever he has to say will annoy me at best and make me want to punch him in the face at worst- which is actually a marked improvement, I might add**.

Hey ho...



*yes, I know I always point this out- but some people are easily confused

**no offence  :)

Just remind me- is the group hugs and mutual back patting us or them?

What were the choices again?

;)

Um... Fence sitter?  To be honest, I was simply fortunate enough to be too lazy to follow what was happening in this instance.  I'm reasonably sure I'd have come down on the side of general piss take otherwise.

In fact- put me down for a telling off anyway.  I probably deserve it for something...

Ahhh...  then it looks as though I picked a good time to sit on the fence.  I feel my edge returning...
