Let's keep the jokes reasonably clean please. :) - Techwatch: Satellite TV forums, FTA, Cable, Hardware, & Tech forums

Just a quick pointer - let's try and keep this board reasonably clean, ie, mostly suitable for general viewing, and not requiring an 18 cert.

Some of the threads we've been seeing would make even Chubby Brown blush.

I don;t mind a little maturity, but recently some of the jokes threads have been pushing the boat out too far.

Let's therefore avoid anything particularly graphic, sexual, or else relating to size, colour, or similar.

Remember, some of the best helpers on this forum are not white English males, so unless you want to alienate some of the very people best suited to helping you with technical issues, let's keep it off TW please.

Yes Brian i totally agree,
her indoors was not happy with me posting a few photo's in the joke section last week, she says she has not got a fat a**e, i totally agreed with her, she says she is not a ugly fat B*****D, and she is right again, How very dare of me to say other wise, so for complete sanity, i condemn all these bad photo's of my missus, and you are right again when you say some of the best helpers on this forum are not white English males, im a wee Fat sh*t From Dundee (that's what her indoors calls me) with a slight Dundee Berry tan..

Well said Brian...! Thanks for pointing that out...

As someone of a older generation I agree but you have to admit some near the knuckle jokes on here are brilliant.Just out of curiosity looking down the forums has this become the Sonya Blade page?

Sonya_Blade · 14-09-08, 03:22 PM

The Sonya Blade page...now that's an idea!

I dont think a busy housewife like your goodself would find the time

Especially when she's so busy helping the newbies get their boxes set up right.

Offend those who help at your peril.

I would just say that being of the older generation I have appreciated the help on here and I have took time out to say a special thank you if you check the forums,and also I have donated.Whilst I realise my intelligence is a lot less than most people on here I dont think I deserve sarcasm for a remark which may not have been pc but was only meant as a joke!
