I said civvies you belm, not ex-service.
I am a civvy, only last night I had a discharge.

The effect I'm after is to cheer myself up and hopefully make people laugh. As an outlet for banter this is mediocre, but it does the job until I can see Blackrat, Monty and 2DD again and skiff their beer glasses (sherry glass in the case of 2DD).
Quite a heavy thread eh? With the mob depleting in numbers and assets, maybe there is less to talk about? This in turn, evolves the threads into a mess deck stylee shit slinging session?
Be honest, there are less interesting posts happening recently. Here's to 2013.
If you refer to my debate in B&B thread etc
.
OTOH scan back a few of the many threads where you've posted on recently please, and try to see how they might look to others.
Ermm Negative. (If anything that whole case, let alone the RR dicussion of it, seemed to be missing the key aspects of 'Tolerance' in general and the particularly Christian aspects of 'Brotherly love' and 'Forgiveness'. I thought it was going to be appealed anyway and the end result may differ so I didn't get involved.)
Steve, you are often humorous and even manic with your RR inputs which are sometimes hilarious; your Pied Piper following here is immense.

If you refer to my debate in B&B thread what was wrong with that. I took up a point and pursued it without frivolity, and pursued what I thought was a valid point.
I gave no opinion as to whether or not I approve of Homosexuality which would make little difference either way if I had.
I express no opinion on religion, only a view that all be treated the same.
I do not enter into heavy debate, not because I have no opinions or am incapable of expressing them.
I as stated visit this forum for light relief and banter with like minded people who do not need me to define every word I use that broaches naval nonsense.
I never attack the youngsters in the mob and do not decry their achievements, in fact have praised them in as much as they do a real heap despite not having the tools or backing we did, and shit runs ashore to boot.
Now and again I do confront in a serious forum but that depends on the subject and the poster.
The case you refer to was because the poster kept hinting at his vastly superior knowledge of the subject in hand, without defining his privy to the source he kept suggesting he had. He never did in fact and to me if you know, being asked to quote you're source is not unreasonable. Unless of course you work for the daily mail and then the law operates differently.
And as for staying within my bounds, well I had an education of good grounding and far from the illiterate buffoon I act and portray myself as in threads.
After all as we keep being told within these portals, it's all only make believe and and real life starts when you log off.
And then ended up talking about pie.

But pie is good and be honest you've never crayoned?
The false prophet (or maybe real tick as appropriate) once said let him who is without sin cast the first stone.
Rummers, you're showing an inferiority complex as those you name as your favourites for insulting are all submariners and a pongo and therefore higher life forms (stand fast the pongo, that was a joke)
Which is why I suggested active moderators who can shift a thread back onto track. We're all guilty of it, however some people wade into nearly every thread with absolutely nothing to contribute to the topic.
Who we aiming at Rummers, or is that best left unsaid? I mean the holier than thou thingy.
And on that point I totally agree. As a conditioned specimen I respect the enforcement of boundaries and have truthfully thought of late that the site was getting a tad too liberal.
Even if you are breaking the law you need to know its there as its no fun.
