Sorry dude, you outdid me so I removed my poor effort

Quite a topical image here though, Nick. Sweet contribution to the forum.

I can't honestly say I've ever disliked someone for being black/homosexual alone. If you're a c*nt, you're a c*nt, no matter what colour skin you have, or what you like to do in the bedroom

You 2 are having far too much fun... I want in on the senior member secret editing :(

Any senior members on the team who were banned a few times before they got the 'promotion'? Just to see whether there's any hope for lil ol' me :)

Who's gay? Why are we bringing tic into this?

JD, Bongo is a senior, so in theory at least, there's hope for you.

In truth though, there is none.

Enjoy :D

Ultimately I know that, but it's nice to have hope! Haha. I'll just continue to be here like 12 hours a day and catch all these sneaky edits...

NOTE: I do not believe I could catch any of you out, so don't test it.

problem is, you'll never know if you missed an edit or not.....

Exactly. Unless I created a script which fed off of the RSS feed for "Latest posts" and took a screenshot saved automatically to a folder somewhere, and then looked for discrepancies between posts. But that would just be silly.

On topic, I'd like to know how it is that they're going to find any person guilty of telling a gay joke or making an inuendo of some sort. Also, in primary schools now, children are being taught about homosexual relationships, and there will quite understandably be some parents who are going to protest this. Parents will make silly jokes, or say things about the stories being told in school about how 2 male penguins fall in love - (I read it in The Times newspaper a few weeks back), which of course the children are going to pick up on and thus repeat the things their parents say. If this new policy does become legal, I would certainly like to know at what age a person may be punished for the offence, surely they won't be able just to throw someone in prison? And what about Gay's themselves? Do we know how they feel about this? What ever happened to good old Freedom Of Speech? This country's pathetic. It really is.

This sound like the Red Army sentencing anyone to death who was found to be making political jokes in Russia. It's all been kept very quiet, even up until today, but they sent the secret police out to mingle with people, and arrest anyone found to be making jokes about them. Pretty harsh really.

I would hazard that some of them make gay jokes themselves, a good number of funnies perhaps.

However, yeah, I guess there's a lot of over sensitive people out there who overreact at the drop of a hat.

You make some good points in your post about where to draw the line, but the problem is that is the case with everything this subjective.

The government is bringing in legislation that deems all homophobic jokes to be illegal. Other than the fact they have far better things to worry about at the mo, isn't this a bit overkill? I'm not going to do a Noel Edmunds and be all "It's Britain gone maaaaaaaaaaaad" but I think it's kinda stupid.

I have to say, hand on heart, I find a fair few racist/homophobic/sexist jokes funny in the right setting; jokes about disabled people, Irish guys, black guys, queens, Muslims, people in wheelchairs, abortion, rape, blah. Nothing *too bad*, but just 'light-hearted' humour and never in situation in which I judge that offense might be taken. Nothing wrong with that, right?

Haha that made me giggle.
