Hey! New club night in Brixtons Myth Bar

[editor]

Agreed. This thread makes me sad, and shows just how non-inclusive urban is.

Your edit painted the poster out as a spammer. People generally don't like spammers and so reacted accordingly.

I tried several times to politely engage the fella but he seemed too full of puffed up attitude to listen to anyone, and kept on going on the offensive.

If urban's proving 'non-inclusive' to people like that, well, meh, I can't say I'm too bothered.

No clique, just continued putdowns and generally unwelcoming language well after the initial apology. For (some very well justified) reasons, this place has some paranoid and withdrawn attitudes. Happens everywhere, of course.

Crispy - to edit the spam post to a bunch of yoof speak and then bemoan a lack of "inclusiveness" because people are taking the piss out of that yoofspeak is a bit.. hypocritical, no?

so why did you edit the OP to make them a figure of fun then?

 

[Onket]

Are you really that fucking blinkered?

clique
group noun [C] DISAPPROVING
a small group of people who spend their time together and do not welcome other people into that group

Oh, I getcha, it's a LARGE group. Sorry.

Blaming crispy isn't really the way forward from here, Jeff- he's the best mod on these boards by a long long way.

 

[El Jefe]

no, I'm not blinkered. I just think you're talking out of your arse. I also think you pick things to get upset about, you're always moaning about lack of consistency but I see none in your whining

I wasn't aware that pointing out the problem in crispy's statements meant I thought he was a shit mod.

I think we might have a deckchair/popcorn situation starting up.

not from me. I've witnessed Onket's selective strops before, and they're not pretty

 

[Crispy]

I edited the OP because it was spam
But because the poster appeared to be a local and showed contrition, I warmed up

Sounds contradictary I know!

but the main focus of the piss taking was the language used in the OP.
THe language in the OP was, in a sense, YOUR language.

But still, much later, you find it appropriate to condemn people for taking the piss.

Can you see why I think you're wrong about this?

 

[Onket]

Yawn.

Under the Freedom Of Information Act, I demand to see what the original pre-edited post was, in order to help me come to a verdict on this very important matter.
