Oh it was a joke?! Maybe these 'jokes' best stay in the General Forum, so that people like me (with an absolute level zero of humour), who do not read the General Forum, dont have to interact with them.

Originally posted by divegeesterspeaking of which, wouldn't it be simpler and cheaper to just ban the old coot permanently, rather than invest in all this complicated ignore technology? sometimes the simple solutions are the best.
What do you think Grampy Bobby has been doing all this time...it's subliminal, in amongst all the crap there is a secret coded post where he asks you for your bank details and nudie pics of your Mum.
