Shaw's Shack Redemption - The Off-Topic Chat Thread

The Official Off-Topic Chat Thread currently known as "Shaw's Shack Redemption". Used to be Prowsey's Corner [Taking], and Hooiveld's Hangout. Formerly Guly's Joint Gaff, and was known as Krueger's Korner. Was Liebherr's Corner, formerly Cortese's Corner. The original name of Beefy's Corner, is being replaced on an occasional basis. Next time, who knows..? Could be anyone. Could even be my corner or yours.

Firstly, the normal rules of the site apply. You cannot start a discussion about contentious issues, Politics, Religion, or show Porn, etc... The flip side of this arrangement is that there will be a much stricter enforcement of the "no going off topic" rule which has always been the case anyway, on the other threads.

Secondly, the normal rules of the Saints board will apply, (except that you can go off-topic obviously). This is not going to become a "private GC Lite." Personal insults will not be tolerated, and neither will goading someone to draw them out. The whole tone of this board has suffered in the past as differing views have been aired and there have been far too many angry exchanges. Vitriolic exchanges are not welcome and will be dealt with as appropriate. If you have fallen out with a poster put him on your ignore list and don't rise to the bait!
If you see content which is not appropriate, please send the mods a PM rather than fronting up the poster and let us deal with it to save a bun-fight. Lastly, if a thread is closed or deleted by one of the Mods, and you have some good reason that it should reopen, then send us a PM with your reasons. Simply re-posting the same thread again to be confrontational would be considered very provocative and would probably lead to action being taken.

It would seem that large numbers of posts and subjects causes problems for mobile phone users to access this site. So from time to time it will be necessary to close the threads down and start a new one. Approximately every 1000 posts or so.

Messages that are purely designed to increase a post count will be deleted.

 

5 views already. What did you expect to see..?

 

Again I raise my objections to this ******ed practice of changing threads all the time.

 

Noted.

 

I've still seen a grand total of zero complaints at a thread growing too big.

 

At worst it allows posters to whinge over my peculiar choice of Beefy's Corner titles.

 

But I thought this thread changed because the plan was to keep changing the name...as opposed to other threads where the intention is to keep it short.

 

Excellent name

 

Why, thank you astute visitor and friend. Come back any time.

 

No one will ever out-pun me.

 

Well you're going to struggle to out-pun yourself after your first one.

 

It'll likely never happen. But we'll always have that first one.

 

Err... who would want to bother..?

 

Don't need to start a new one to change the title.

 

Hopefully no one, as I wouldn't want to start a pun-off.

 

I can remember at least one (cough).

Anyway, why are you guys so obsessed with long length.

Are you by any chance compensating for something....?

 

That was a stretch.

 

yes, I use short words

 

Not really the point I was thrusting at.

 

Actually, I know that football fans are not always the most educated of folk. When I am replying to certain posters, I am always careful to type nice and slowly.
I also try to keep my posts full of simple vocabulary, avoiding alliteration always.
Puns are cool though. One only need say "fish" and off people will go.
