Quit with the ad homs.
Tell him, BO. He was the one who introduced them into the conversation, not me. I simply give as good as I get.

Big difference between this, Brian ...
No. Nobody would help them because even local Mexicans are afraid of these people. Nobody wants to get robbed
And this ...
Who? Run along, back to your little kiddies' playground. I can hear your nursemaid calling you. Tut, tut.

Whom is Brian O'Connor? :roll:
Your Bwian, I call him O'Connor. I want to be original, and it's funny.

He has consistently insulted me by calling me by a name which is not mine. Funny how that gets missed in your deliberations, BO.

You really think 'O'Connor' is worse than 'Islamophobe', 'racist', 'bigot' etc? Seriously?

Too much snowflakeism, not good, O'Connor.

I think it is worse, as it is a personal ad hominem insult, something you accused me of, BO.

If what I said about him "trotting off back to the little kiddies' playground" was bad enough for an admonishment, then so is calling me a name which is not mine. My name is plainly and clearly identified on all my posts. He has decided to use a nickname which I have asked him not to. Now, if identifying a person's position is insulting, perhaps he needs to change his position, just as does anybody else who I identify was a "Islamophobe" or a "Racist" or a "Bigot", BO. If he stops posting Islamophobic/Racist/Xenophobic/Bigoted stuff, I'll stop identifying him as such. Simples really. He OTOH appears in no hurry to stop using his nickname for me. Indeed, I doubt he'll ever stop using it, unless you apply some discipline to him.

In Australia nicknames are a term of endearment, Brian. I don't see O'Connor as being an abusive insult. Perhaps we should have a poll on it?

Discipline cannot be applied to me. I'm not five, O'Connor. I usually behave very friendly and good, and I am polite, unless someone starts to behave like a saphead with me. This is the last time I answer you. You do not deserve us to pay attention to you.

And by the way, O'Connor drives a 500 HP Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R. That's bad? Oh dearie dearie me.

Nicknames can be a form of endearment, they can also take the form of an insult, BO. Flektarn's use of a nickname I disagree with indicates what about the manner in which he is applying it?

Flektarn had declared that he cannot be subject to any discipline you can apply. Are you prepared to accept that he is undisciplineable? He considers himself more important than the Administrator of the Forum. Is that a position you're willing to accept/support?

I am quite willing to accept a ban or a direction to modify my language - if it is fair. If I don't think it is fair, I'll just leave the forum. I won't make declarations against the Administrator or declare they are powerless to discipline me. I am a mature adult, unlike some posters.
