T-Bob Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Oh... THAT'S what this thread was about at the start. Nice idea. -------------------------------------------------------- So, after a crazy week here on the Hub SA, what with all the suspensions, warnings and all round madness, I have to ask myself what the heck is going on? Intolerance, fighting, trolling, baiting seems to have become the norm. I will be the first to stand up and be counted and apologise for any wrong doing and bad behaviour. We, as a so called "community",have made the Hub SA not a nice place to hang out as of late. I have made both friends and foes, yet recently I have become somewhat disillusioned by what has been taking place. Matt(Admin)has given us a fantastic platform to discuss, argue, SHOUT about all things cycling and other more trivial topics, for that, thank you. But, we need to get things back on track,as I'm sure all would agree? So how do we do go about doing this and make the Hub SA a more pleasant place to be?
Baaisikilist Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Holy Schmidt you can carry OOOON AND OOOON...! Talk about making something out of nothing.I wonder if my horticultural executive is plotting to kill his Umlungu employer because I refer to him as Madala.You're flogging a dead horse. Nobody really cares about the word but you. Get over it, miserable Caucasian.. Tumbleweed 1

A mass download of common sense should be the first step. Not the initial, buggy, my.common.sense.is.better.than.your.common.sense.v1.24 but the more acceptable basic.common.sensev1.98 should do the trick. Sadly, there are too many leechers, and not nearly enough seeders for this to be a viable option. So - tolerance v2014 should be on everyone's download list this morning. Also - study It Is My Choice Whether to Take Offence or Not and I Must Resist Spur of the Moment Retaliations to get an idea on what proper discourse should be. jaco369, Tumbleweed and BarHugger 3

Thug Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Having lived in the former Transkei pre 94, for a good 10 years or so, I have no issues being called an uMlungu and often refer to myself as one. But then again, I take life with a pinch of salt. Baaisikilist, Tumbleweed, Lone_Ranger and 1 other 4
Slowbee Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Is there a freeware version?I thought is was software?
Topwine Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 If someone "likes" an offensive post, does it make them reportable too ? Deler so goed as die steler ?

Rata Del Spruit Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Is there a freeware version? There is but the dodgy 'warez' site you have to download it from is full of nude buttocks. Tumbleweed 1
Agteros Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 This is by far the most offensive word I've seen in this thread. It is not just a general derogatory term for a group, but a very strong negative personal reflection on an individual. It is always negative, no matter in what context it is used. In South Africa a label like this can be extremely damaging to an individual. I would take serious offense if it was directed at me and would insist on it being removed with an apology attached. (So much for wise people not getting involved in a messy fight. )Bigot: a person who strongly and unfairly dislikes other people, ideas, etc The term and definition thereof according to the Merriam-Webster dictionary is apt in this case. Prejudice against a group (as per allowing certain terms, but not others of same nature)

BarHugger Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 and just to add, this thread should answer the question. but much is being done to change it Might it be....... Evan Andreou and Tumbleweed 2
Tumbleweed Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 There is but the dodgy 'warez' site you have to download it from is full of nude buttocks. I'm sure someone may even find it offensive that you even suggested a site with nude buttocks on it…
BarHugger Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 (edited) It's open sauce... .......especially an open sauce from the SPUR......die SPUR IS 'n LEKKA PLEK!!! Edited January 20, 2014 by BarHugger Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1
