As Nigel Farage said on his Any Questions interview, the Met supposedly know of 19 active gangs in the area where Ben Kinsella was stabbed. So why haven't they been arrested?!

Because the Gestapo are too busy dealing with hate' crimes as opposed to those I-really-really-like-you sort of murders.

Ever thought of joining the Gestapo? Some wet lefty gaylover like you would be right up their street.

I'm afraid no one cares about civility here. They call it banter despite the fact it uncivil behaviour like that in most of Mike's posts drags down the tone of the discussion and the forum.

It definitely does drag the tone down. And I should very much doubt

is excusable as banter. As I stated, I don't care if I'm going to get an infraction for reporting too often; I want Mikeuk to be civil and not to plough on with his tirade of pathetic personal disses.

Mike's posts are often troll worthy. He is best ignored completely.

Have you seen the announcement on complaints?

Yes. That's why I said I don't care if I get an infraction. I just wish that he could engage properly. He's obviously either insecure or seriously lacking in material to support his stance if he can only now resort to pitiful insults. I feel sorry for him in some ways.

Complaint up held, infraction given.

Please report such posts. We don't want banter to be compained about, but we do want posts which are clearly insulting to be flagged. As you can see, this infraction was upheld.

Ever thought of a time-out zone to put mis-behaving posters in as a resort before implimenting the banning act?
[Rep]

Bans can be a variable length. Normal 'first offence' is one week ban, which is where, for example, BOB FM is. So similar to a time out zone.

How did I warrant a three month ban then?
