Oh the MSE lot are a nightmare. If I was Martin Lewis I would insist on much tighter moderation on there, as it really does put people off.

Every forum is somewhat like that though, even if not consciously. I know I've been on a few forums, had a quick look round and thought, "nope, not going to make many friends here". Wasn't that the forum was horrible, just not my kind of place. :)

I hate gavel too. So that's that sorted.

Hahahaha. In my defence I feel like shit. So please pretend I am funny.

*I saw someone write 'fupping' on a thread yesterday. They had capitalised it and were using it in place of the word 'fucking'.

I had to hide the thread. It made me feel sick.*

I made you sick you twat.
No wonder you're ABitBewildered if FUPPING makes you ill.

I like Fupping, i may use it every day now. It capitalises automatically on my auto correct by the way. It was in the twigs and shit thread.

I can say shit, I can even say fuck but fucking is just for my hubby

Pwahahahahahahaa.

Gavel people need a rabbit punch between the eyebrows in my opinion.

Mintyy · 04/11/2012 22:10

Oh I like gavel, used sparingly. All it means is that person saying it really really thinks their pov is the correct one. Not just the usual being certain they are right, but absolutely certain.

Hi mintyy xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

GetOrfAKAMrsUsainBolt · 04/11/2012 22:41

I have done a x on threads where the OP is upset or something. Or said bless you (fuck knows where that comes from). Sometimes someone is so tangibly upset just something small like a x you hope will portray concern.

GetOrfAKAMrsUsainBolt · 04/11/2012 22:43

What the fuck is a rabbit punch?

Tigger you sound friendly. Smile

ExitPursuedByABanger · 04/11/2012 22:46

People will post however they want.

And I will feel free to judge them accordingly.

TiggerWearsATriteSmile · 04/11/2012 23:04

A rabbit punch,
It's a small swift bing between the eyebrows. Come on you can picture it.

I bet you will think of it and so want to do it to someone.

I'm not friendly, I'm an awful cunt

ginhag · 04/11/2012 23:07

Like a 'kerpow' ish quick punch. Y'know, imagine a boxing rabbit with swift fists and you're there.

In fact imagine the boxing kangaroo from the first episode of the Boosh. Then duck Grin

ginhag · 04/11/2012 23:10

Yes agree gertorf there are times when the kissy huggy stuff is appropriate...just not as a reflex IMofcourseVHO

Tiggers balls are covered in pooh.
You still want to go there Goo?

BitBewildered · 05/11/2012 00:12

Thanks tigger for saving me the trouble of searching 'fupping' to find out who it was. You were going to be the first poster I hid if it ever got brought in.

You've gone up in my estimation now though. Much prefer a cunt to a fupper.

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 05/11/2012 00:43

Sometimes a hug or a kiss is the right thing to do.
As in life.
More often not, specially with strangers.

Oh, and I like cunts.
But I also like fupper; a new one to be incorporated as and when.

Loveweekends10 · 05/11/2012 06:14

I don't give a shit how you want people to post. I will post how I like. But thanks for pointing it out hunxxxxx.

I spent nearly 6 years on Nethuns... The amount of glittery shit teamed, ever increasing amounts of txt spk (sic) with the fact I couldn't write Scunthorpe made me go crazy, so I got banned and headed to Mn, a more natural home ;)
