There is talk on these boards that legal action is being taken by a Swan against a Cardiff member. . If we are going down this road I can't see how not606 can continue.
its now painfully embarassing. i dont recall 15 page threads moaning about swansea fans when we got an Wums from them when they went up. censorship by neveroffsideref, and now this, JH shouldnt be using such language but FFS.......
Wtf? Don't know anything about this but people do get sued or prosecuted for Twitter comments and that's still going strong. Why would it end the forum? Bit melodramatic?
Legal action is the ultimate censorship, how can people post with this hanging over their heads, you'll have to have all comments looked over by a legal team, otherwise those who run not606 could be thought to condone things.
the fact is that taff said something 2this effect the other day in a warning 2 him,so am I right In thinking taff would know the person who told him 2 pass this warning on>>>>>>>>>>>>or is musty just talking bullshit threats??? another sad day for common sense
I hadn't heard of this as well, shocking if true but I don't think it will mean the rest of us need to be careful, we just continue to refrain from using any sensitive words that we know the law is hunting for. In other words, we just carry on.
I hope this is just that, talk of legal action is not funny and if it is a send up I think Musty should apologise to both boards.
It was brought up (on a Swans thread) that a man was successfully prosecuted for using the term pikie whilst having an arguement with a night club owner. Apparently this now means the term pikie is classed as a racist. It is not clear whether or not the offended party was in fact from the traveller community. I have asked that people here refrain from using these terms as some people can be offended by it. As for the legal action threat, it may be real or hot air, but I have no knowledge of this action or the person instigating it.
not a send up Dave, just a warning what can happen. your buddy JH best watch what he types in his little bedroom. this is a public forum like facebook, twitter etc etc, ppl have been sued for racial remarks therefore I see no need for me to apologise to anyone, in fact I should be thanked for warning fellow posters what could happen. personally I could not give a rats however some sensitive ppl might. I see dave warner (aussie cricketer was fined 6000 for comments made on twitter).
OK then if we can not say Pikie as it offens the jacks i will say Feck off musty you peg seller ,that better pikie boyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy......................;o) Can see why now cartoonhead and Chico want to leave their board with a pleb like this as a so called mod ,sent any violent PM`s lately son?..........................................................
