forumming principles - voluntary code

by horace Fri 19 Oct 2007, 01:24

what do posters think about signing up to a voluntary code of principles under which signatories would agree to post?

such a code would include principles such as:

affirming the value of non racial discrimination
celebrating cricket as an endeavour of cultural expression and artistry
fairness and equity towards other countries and posters
opposition to bullying and encouragement of the expression of diverse points of view about cricket.

the code would not preclude gentle teasing of posters or of the performance of particular national or state/county teams.

You trying to take all the fun out of this place horrie? Razz

3 and a half of the 4 points are OK, I suppose, but I don't see the need really.

still allows for multo bagging of the pomgolians as well as the bills and wusses

by Zat Fri 19 Oct 2007, 02:03

Hang on a minute...

affirming the value of non racial discrimination

WTF???
So we can't discriminate on racial grounds, but can on sexual, religious, disability...

You might need a rethink horrie.

i thought they were fairly minimal...personally i think religion is a blight on the planet...people who believe in fairies at the bottom of the garden like supporters of the pope, the dalai lamington, islam, religious aparheid (hindus) should be fair game

by HH_pink Fri 19 Oct 2007, 02:19

Hinduism as a religion does not have religious "apartheid". The 'apartheid' part of it is fairly modern and carried out in the name of Hinduism like suicide bombing is in the name of Islam.

But to answer Zat's question, of course all those are allowed. Gay people are santa

. Guys are ******* and females are ********. Handicapped people are jokers. No I take that last one back.

It's all just a cunning plan to preclude VoR from posting

Aye - the word voluntary having too many syllables for him to understand.

teehee...seems vor has already got the message given his absence...personally i hope he returns...i enjoy his posts and debates on the rankings, even if his tyrannical bullying of other posters gets up my nose

VoR's good value . . . even is abuse is funny . . . it's so knee-jerk (kind of like subi sooking).

by HH_pink Fri 19 Oct 2007, 03:14

Subis. don't. sook.

Subis?. Who're they? No such group exists as far as I know. Oh you mean like the pomsies and all derivatives thereof?

I'm. not. sooking.

Won't work. First of all, you'd have to assume that most forumers have principles...
