Beanz you need to relax mate, I have no idea why you get so passionately irate with Lyle, Brock, Miles, Walrus, whomever it may be this week or that. It is utterly alien to me. You see the rolling eyes smiley ()? This is how I react to 99% of my everyday life let alone this wonderful forum.

I come to this terrific place to chat with boxing nerds and comment on a few social/outside issues. That's it.

The way I see it is - you need to address WHY you get so upset by people that don't share your opinions? What are you trying to achieve? You come across very angry and obsessional about matters that are very trivial to me. Hope you don't find this offensive too
Because the long and short of it seems to be. Many here are now outraged that they can no longer be misogynistic, racist, xenophobic in the real world and so this forum has become ironically, their safe space. They can come here and just refuse to respect anyone not exactly like them. Saddo was always somewhere that you could post pretty much anything but that. It was refreshingly free of censorship ...unless it was racist. Now it's almost required etiquette as part of people's posting style. Throw in a missive every now and then, blame the muzzies even when where nowhere to be seen, it's even all over the boxing threads now so that people can't mention Khan without throwing in Rotheram and now anti Jewish stuff is also just part of the landscape. Walrus can't post without mentioning the Zog, Brockton is explicitly racist about races all the time, Lyle is still not happy even though all the female posters have left, It's like they are sticking two fingers up to the mods and ripping the piss. I know you don't make the rules but they sure as hell seem to have been thrown out of the window now and anything seems to be fine. If that is the way it is going to be then fine, but it will put a lot of people that come for the boxing off.

And i am never going to apologise for being opinionated and writing passionately. It's not the same as being angry which is nothing to be ashamed of either. I have to be so considered when writing professionally that maybe it's not just my appalling grammar etc that I let go here. I just write in a stream of consciousness babble because life is too short to compose stuff for a forum. Some people are naturals and i am not. I have to work very hard at it and here is not the place for that.
