    Why do you think it's a waste of time? Just curious to hear both sides of the argument, and am not trying to start .


    And if you're the first to have a good laugh, check it out once in a while. I regularly get lols out of it

    Peas out brothers!

    Well as the votes stand it is 21 for relaxed moderation - and a big fat zero for strict moderation.

    I regularly frequent through here for a bit of a laugh at something silly and have forwarded many a pic on to mates who would find things funny too. If it is not your cup of tea, so be it. Sure, some images or jokes might push it, but compared to humour sections on other forums, the stuff on here is G rated!

    I feel sorry for the mods who have to put up with some people who clearly have too much time on their hands and maybe need to follow good old chopper reads advice and "harden the **** up". I certainly hope the motivational posters ends back up on here in its full uncensored glory!

    Is that what happened to them? I thought they were the BEST part of this section. How come they were removed?

    why people go to places where they know there going to be offended is beyond me. ffs do i turn up to a honda dealership and start complaining ? no! i dont want to see there cars hence i dont go rifleing through there catalogues, peeing and moaning.

    this thread is not a milk bar in a street you dont acidently walk down the road and stumble accross it, someone has to physically click on this thread to be here.

    for gods sake exercise some anishative(or however you spell it), if you dont like it dont go here.simple

    at times it seems like there are more mods here than members.
    yes i know being mod is a thankless task but come on guys ease up. if you took a more relaxed approach to things rather than spending all your time editing other members posts then its no ones fault but yours that you have created a massive work load

    if the mod team cant accept that then just cancel out all forms of humor and fun, but i think you will find the quality of this forum will be greatly reduced

    Gotta say I love the humour section on this forum. I post on various sports and music forms and the humour section here kicks arse.

    People should be aware of what’s in here. Perhaps if when creating a thread we leave a little warning:

    JOKE: GUY GOES INTO A BAR *WARNING SEXIST JOKE*

    That way people who are sensitive to a particular issue can avoid the thread.

    Also, to the people who are anti swearing, I can completely understand your views and have no problem with it, BUT, don't say that people are being unintelligent and not "exercising their vocabulary" simply because they use a swear word. Many intelligent people use swear words and I think you'd be making giant assumptions if you were to go around presuming anyone who swore hadn't taken their thesaurus pills when they woke up.
