Well I have not had a look, will not, see its a game we kids played.
Yes I have had my moments but am here still.
Because this site is both private property and the best.
We are making this thread a big one, because it interests us, not I think to throw stones.
I have seen far worse than foxy, in fact can not remember much bad about her.
We all should not fall in to the foolish responses to even more foolish posts/threads.
In way we give air to the foolishness by not ignoring it.
I would rather swim in the OLO pool and often clash than try to find one that always agrees with my views.

A current photograph, religion, marital status, sexual orientation,
IQ, ethnic background, citizenship,gender, all might help as well (joking).

Dear Belly,
whether or not OLO is "the best" is debatable (I can't be bothered looking elsewhere, and Graham "is" amusing); but whatever its merits it's only as good as its content (contributors), and that I'm afraid is indifferent.
Latterly, treading the halls of academy, Squeers and I are as one in our loathing of inflated, indeed ponderous (apt to burst)egos..
Ah yes, we pose and pontificate too, but that is mere form--de rigueur. There must-needs be substance beneath the persiflage, which we pride ourselves in. And that is what is too often wanting at OLO.
Squeers is yet to encounter anything remotely challenging here..

Graham does get a harsh bollocking on that site as per his links. Moderation is part of forum life and from the little gleaned of other sites this one should be commended for it's wide audience.

Graham's decision to delete my 'idiot' post was the right decision IMO and I think the reaction to some of GY's previous deletions or suspensions is out of proportion.

Maybe other comments do get ignored when they shouldn't but unless someone reports an 'offense' GY may not always be across the site as a one-man band. The Hitler analogy is offensive guys.

Lexi, "A current photograph, religion, marital status, sexual orientation, IQ, ethnic background, citizenship,gender, all might help as well (joking).'

More a classic straw-man diversion than a 'joke' I would suggest. As you are aware, none of those were suggested or have any relevance tp what I said.

It was a suggestion aimed at other things, but yes it could deter those posting under a number of aliases if that is what you are thinking about.
