Too late. You've quoted it there, which makes it conclusive. I'd say that makes Franklin the frontrunner for both the Oatcakes 'worst speller' and 'worst smeller' awards at the end of the year To be fair mate I don't pretend to be clever I know what and who I am a dullard from Bentilee 🤓 as for smell I wouldn’t know I've a stinking cold atm and can't smell anything 🤒 How do you know it’s stinking if you can’t smell?

1. What do you mean by people like ME? 2. Where have I been offering any speculation or conspiracy theories about her on this thread? There was an interesting discussion last night on the negative role that social media has had on this sorry affair on Channel 5 news. Not content on accepting that this is a young woman with three young children who's had a major operation immediately followed by a Palace Press Release in an attempt to stop the rumour mill followed by another press release to say that she wouldn't be appearing publicly until after Easter Social Media and it's swathes of morons went into overdrive. Even the most stupid of people out there could probably add two and two together and work out that it was serious. It's my opinion that you've added to this with a pathetic thread about a doctored photo who really fucking cares? It had the correct mother and the correct three children in it is your life really so empty that it's important enough to keep plugging it for 12 pages despite the fact that a few people on here have alluded to health issues, medical privacy, dealing with young children, etc, etc For anyone that doesn't know there's a facility on here that if you press on the number of posts it gives you the chief culprits. I pressed on that before I made the above post last night and saw that you were way out ahead of the crowd bumping it along merrily. Personally my own opinion is I think that this thread has made you look a bit of a twat but of course it's only my opinion and I can't prove it. I also suspect that I'm not the only one but of course I can't prove that either. Have a good day unlike the suffering Kate. So you're not going to answer the question then? Have you actually READ the thread? Quote the posts where I've made myself 'look a bit of a twat' and I'll debate you. Otherwise you're coming across as doing nothing more than virtue signalling. Oh and insulting people doesn't make your comments anymore legitimate, absolutely no need for it whatsoever.

It's the weekend, there's much better ways for people to spend their time and I'm back from a day of eating and drinking to find that the dullards are still trying to prove that they're the rightest in the land.
Bugger off and spend your time doing something interesting, even if it's pickling your liver or getting off your swede, it's got to be preferable to back pedalling on some drivel that has no real consequence to you in the real world.
However, I'm home now, Saturday night TV is utter dogshit, and if you want to keep up the petty mindless squabbling I'll join in.
(I might not respond immediately as I'm watching something sub-titled).

Regardless of whether you dislike someone for justifiable reasons the need to call someone a T*@t isn’t a great look. I’m not sure whether it’s said to say that they hate someone more than the next person but for me there’s too much hate in the world, isn’t easier to just disagree or dislike especially if you’ve never met the person in question.

Amazing how some on here seem to suddenly be VERY selective who they're outraged towards for childish insults etc. They never seem to mind insults being thrown around and posters trying to belittle others if it's a post/poster they agree with themselves do they? In the same way that that some say they "just don't like people being ganged up on", yet sit back and happily watch other posters they disagree with on other threads be "ganged up on" with no issues whatsoever. All of a sudden that principle seems to go out the window when it suits them (and they have to nerve to accuse others of virtue signalling, whilst pretending they're outraged by insults so they can use it as some get out clause).
Shows that they're not actually outraged at all at the principle of people insulting others/stopping to that level, they're simply pissed off when those they don't agree with do it.
Same as the people "respecting the forum" bs. Happy to call out BJR for simply not backing up a statement but seemingly more than happy to allow others to literally make things up to misrepresent views they don't agree with. That's fine and dandy but apparently it's disrespectful to the WHOLE forum to just not provide evidence when one person insists on it.
The lack of consistency in their application of what they do/don't find distasteful, is just showing their true colours here.

No, you're not saying he's a dick. You're saying what he did made him look like one. Language is important! There's a reason why social workers tell parents under their supervision (if needed, obviously) that there is a HUGE difference between saying "You're naughty" and "What you did was naughty" to a child. They quite literally mean 2 entirely different things.

Millsy, you're better than that.
Instead of being vague, call out exactly who you are talking about.
I will ...
Cobham is forever suggesting that people should have respect for other posters and that there are no need for personal insults on here but he's more than happy to 'like' a thread littered with personal insults because it suits his viewpoint.
That is the very definition of hypocrisy.
How can you describe 'respecting the forum' as bullshit?
I've already explained to you that I haven't even read all of wannabe's posts, yet it seems now, that you're happy to completely disregard that reply from me to you as being irrelevant, in some bizarre attempt to point score.
What lack of consistency and what true colours am I displaying?
Examples please, or is it ok now to suggest whatever you like on the Oatcake, without having to remotely justify your position?

Well, ok then I'll call you out on your lack of consistency. You were the one talking about the importance of respecting the forum, yet seem happy to allow others to make things up and intentionally misrepresent posts, which is far more disrespectful to the forum than someone simply not complying with your demands.. I told you about it, yet you couldn't be bothered to even look at it (which is strange when you're using "respecting the forum" as some kind of a way to guilt people into playing by the rules You want to play by). I then even tagged you in one of them so you had no excuse to conveniently not see it, just to see if again you'd just be silent and surprise, surprise.... yet more silence from you. You were only bothered about "respecting the forum" when you couldn't get the answer you wanted from BJR. Amazing (and convenient) how you never saw any of those other posts though, despite the fact it's your thread which you've been on every day and made far more posts on than anyone else and apparently you're offended by people not "respecting the forum". You can't have it both ways. I'll also call out gawa who apparently just doesn't want anyone to be ganged up on, yet happily sits back and watches others be "ganged up on" in any political thread, unless it's someone he agrees with. I just expect the both of you to actually be consistent if you're going to try to use those things as some kind of way to play the victim or to get people to play by your rules. Obviously, you don't have to defend people you don't agree with but equally therefore,no one has to believe you're really fighting for any kind of fairness or respect when you're being so selective over who you do or don't defend. You're calling other people virtue signallers, whilst plainly and clearly merely virtue signalling yourself about your concern for "respecting the forum".

I'm sure you've suggested that about me in various forms Paul. If we're playing the 'show me a quote' game then Fel hasn't actually called you anything, but I'm willing to debate if you show me where he's actually called you something. Otherwise I think it's poor form to accuse someone of something they haven't said. But hey, if it's any consolation I'll admit that I've come across as a bit of a twat a few times....Shit happens. Just be thankful that you're not one of the 2 or 3 on here that come across as twats 100% of the time.

He's acted like a dick. That means in that instance he acted like that. Saying someone IS a dick however is saying that's what they are as a person. I don't wish to sound patronising, Paul but it really is basic English comprehension.
