Spoofs, Jokes and Trolls

Right.

I want a serious debate about this.

I started a joke thread, in my own name as usual, about a neighbour stealing a spoon.

It was questioned as "trolling" and I got told off by Rebecca at MNHQ.

Are spoofs and/or jokes no longer allowed?

Since when?

And why?

What do people think about spoofs, jokes and trolls and the difference theereof?

I've just watched a Scottish weather forecast.
Do you know on this date last year it was 20 degrees here?
Tonight it's hanging on zero.
WTF is that about?

Chub. My local taxi company come to your house, collect your cash, buy your wine and come back with your change.

Chubfuddler · 27/03/2013 21:06

Right well I am moving to there then. Where do you live? Can I stay with you?

BOEUF · 27/03/2013 21:11

Is this the link, Mimi?

BOEUF · 27/03/2013 21:12

What was your name on it, so I can F3/equivalent?

BecauseImWorthIt · 27/03/2013 21:13

Chub - I don't think so, as they are disputing our claim. We have to go to court to prove our case. But thanks for the suggestion.

HotCrossWeaselInSinisterBonnet · 27/03/2013 21:17

Chub. Sure.

Mind you Hully tends to hog the sofa and dribble in your ear.

See people don't plan where they life properly.

If I walk seven minutes in one direction it's all open fields and woodland. 5 minutes the other way I have, decent shop, chip shop, Chinese take away, chemist and pub.

Takeaways round here bring bottles of wine or beers.

This is why I will never not live in a city.

HotCrossWeaselInSinisterBonnet · 27/03/2013 21:19

Our take aways do this and I life 20 yards up the arsehole of nowhere.

Chubfuddler · 27/03/2013 21:20

You can still start proceedings like that though. And if its a claim for less than 5,000 you won't have to pay their costs in the unlikely event you lose. Small claims hearings aren't scary, if you've got enough nouse to draft a contract you could manage it.

If you want some help PM me. I'll draft the particulars for you if you like. You'd have to pay the issue fee but that's not a lot.

BOEUF · 27/03/2013 21:27

Aw, Chub, that's lovely of you. Yes, BIWI, do that- Chub knows her onions.

KatieMiddleton · 27/03/2013 21:29

There's a booze online place that delivers to SW London because it's nappy valley and we're all on the edge of a breakdown

I haven't used them because when I called it was too early. Wtf is that about? Call at 5.30pm, then 40 mins to deliver is surely fine isn't it? Isn't it?! ISN'T IT?!!!!

Any hoo I'm just popping in the look supportive and stand with you but it is ds's birthday and I have to do stuff.

EostreChaoticResurrEggtion · 27/03/2013 21:29

What was your name on it, so I can F3/equivalent?

Same as it is now.

BecauseImWorthIt · 27/03/2013 21:30

Chub that's really kind of you. I'll have a look at the site and will PM you tomorrow.

usualsuspect · 27/03/2013 21:31
