How many medieval executions do we have these days? (and I bet there was a fair bit of cheering at some of those).

Booing seems rather less unhinged than turning up in a yellow sweatshirt emblazoned with NOT MY KING and yelling that during royal events, if you ask me.

Edited

You missed out the die which as you no doubt know is a figure of speech. Sounds like you are a booer then or at least a fellow traveller of the booers.

That's a bit of a stretch!

Hence my comment it should be best left to pantomime and any appearance of Boris Johnson.

Not half term AGAIN, surely?

I'm not sure booing is the gotcha that some think it is. I can only assume die hard Royalists would do that and it makes them look unhinged which is not a good look.

I agree, it's not a good look!
Although it does depend - which die hard royalists? The ones who support the official royals or the ones who support the Harry and Meghan royals.?.
They both have devoted fans, but the booing is definitely not great.

A boo apologist by proxy probably only for Prince Harry though ! Am I right ?

It also gives most an unerring ability to recognise a self serving angry twit when they see one.

Good skill 👍

Lookingatthesunset · 08/05/2024 20:23

Booing is not nice and I have never done it at anyone in my life - but taking uncalled-for potshots at other posters isn't a good look either.

I've spotted one.

How mature.

TheFirmBiscuit · 08/05/2024 20:26

What happened to the redoubtable Roussette and Mrs MaxdeWinter have they been driven away ?

I'm impressed you actually managed to decode that bit of jabberwocky.

I very much doubt that.

TheFirmBiscuit · 08/05/2024 20:29

They no longer post here and MN did read the riot act on this sub forum so I'm fearing the worse.

IsoldeWagner · 08/05/2024 20:29

How is anyone on here supposed to know what happened to other posters? Folks come and go. Their choice.

Needanewname42 · 08/05/2024 20:32

Booing at Royals is a weird thing. Why would anyone bother traveling to an event to boo someone?

Booing at sports events I can almost understand, duff decision by the ref, substitution fans don't agree with. At the end of the day they are the paying customer. How else do they express disappointment?

Nothing major I’m afraid - MrsMax hasn’t posted in a year - she was clear that her interest here was the dynamics of this forum which she was going to use to write a book and Rousette had one pile on too many by the usual suspects after Easter.

BigWillyLittleTodger · 08/05/2024 20:43

Funny how there are so many vociferous new posters recently who have developed a sudden interest in the royal family and feel very sorry for poor old Harry.

Sorry to hear it they were the posters I most admired and Rousette like the late Queen was a paragon of virtue and decorum. I'm an ex poster here but the whole tone has changed probably because MN didn't like the hassle of having to overly moderate protracted bun fights and gangs of posters policing the mood. I'll leave you to it and bid you adieu - I have an appointment with Twitter/X which is calling ....

New names, certainly.

It's not an airport. No need to announce your departure.

Absolutely! They can’t change their posting style though, easily recognisable.
