    Test cricket is great for alcohol and food.

    What are you doing arguing about it on here if you don't know! The thread is about Ollie Robinson.

    Having read your post, I find it quite belittering and contrary to my mental wellbeing.
    Interesting that you chose to respond to my post and not Alberts.
    Would that be because he's a mod, which if so, appears to be bullying.
    More so than ever, I am offended and feel I have just cause to be so, and thus report you.

    I disagree. None of us have faced persecution, discriminated against or lost opportunities in life by being called a horse puncher. It isn't the same. We do need to consider the language we use and the effect it has on others, even unintentionally. However, if we want society to learn and change then it needs to be dealt with in a way that addresses the problems and brings about change, allowing that people will have made mistakes and having the opportunity to learn from them. It shouldn't be brushed under the carpet, but neither should the person involved be buried for it either.

    I suspect he just knew that Albert wouldn't understand his response

    I asked a question and responded to that.

    I've now established he said something stupid and he's being destroyed for it.

    It's hardly a big deal what he's said, but because he's put in on social media and because it's a sensitive area he's going to pay for it.

    I'm sure he's a nice guy

    You are reading too much into it. I responded to your post as generally @Albert's Chip Shop just copies all sorts of **** from Twitter. In 10 years posting on here I would doubt he has expressed a single meaningful opinion of his own so I didn't expect him to have started now. In fact its a wonder he didn't add the expression "purple dildo" on there.

    There's people have killed themselves over this kind of thing.

    If society has an excuse to go after a person relentlessly then it will do so just like the issue they're fighting against.

    It's a dangerous game all this..

    I have no time for haters, but I think it's vitally important to sift out the really bad from the silly boys and girls.

    Hmmm, I have to say I am now offended on behalf of Albert.

    It's so easy to be offended, and that's my point.

    You're right. It is very easy to be offended, It is often said that offence is taken and not given, but that isn't always true. It all depends on the intent behind comments, which isn't always easy to tell. I have no idea if Jak intended to offend Albert, though I really hope he did!

    In my opinion an ideal world would mean genuine banter would be able to cover any subject, even people's religion or colour of skin. But that would have to take place in a society of genuine equality. We aren't there yet. We're not even close. There are still people who don't want genuine equality and actively campaign against it. Sometimes it is done openly but often it is hidden behind 'banter'. Until the equality is there then the rest of us should be careful about giving them the environment to hide their banter in. It isn't right and it isn't fair that we have to do that. However, it is less unfair than others having to live in a world where they are not accepted or treated as equals.

    Absolutely, you have to set standards especially for mods, and Jak is falling well below expectations......

    he’s that ducking clueless it’s like he’s walking round all day stroking a purple dildo instead of doing his mod job.

    brb keeps asking me if I need any more mod tools. I just tell him that Nev, Trev and Jak are enough to be getting on with for now.

    Nowadays red dildo fans would probably complain to sky about red dildo discrimination.
