    And that was considered homophobic?

    I also liked the line where the cowboy came in and said, "I just done lassoed Billy the Kid. Where's my cookie?"

    OK it's getting a bit ridiculous now, the post deleting.

    Bronaldo called all the mods "F#ggots", I hid the post but did not delete it.

    I want to say Switzerland but whether that vague memory is correct or not...?

    I will delete every one of Bronaldos attacks. Your f%ggot attack was the last straw.

    Keep moving around Europe, back in Amsterdam again for a second spell now. Might actually move to the States for a few years next year so that will be interesting since I don't think words should hurt people (while guns certainly do).

    Was there for almost half a decade until earlier this year so correct as of your previous retirement.

    I lived and worked there too at one stage of my life. Murren to be precise.

    Beautiful part of the world; happy days of my life though I wouldn't go back again permanently (wouldn't mind a holiday home in Lugano/Ticino though).

    What were you up to in Murren though? Not much happening there outside of the tourism industry.

    Dear Bronaldo, your posts are getting deleted, because you connived in that burst of b.s. to try and associate my objection to your homophobic slur to a completely unrelated post vice the offending post. Nice try :)

    Yep, that's what I was at the time, hotel management. I'm actually back in that field now after a few years in post secondary.

    I used to assistant manage a hotel in murren. It was an awesome time of my life for sure....I especially loved going canyoning in that part of the world. Mind you, it was scary as ******** at times. I was there when they had the flash flood in one of the canyons which killed a bunch of tourists.

    Irrelevant. You deleted my post directed at Nimma (relating Nimma to traffic cops). You continue to delete my other posts.

    Okay, okay.....let's just try and get past this together. It's clear some rookie mistakes have been made,,,,I think what might go a long way to mending some bridges, is if Jon Paul and Nimma create an 'Apology thread' where they apologise for recent heavy handed tactics on their own brothers.......and a personal sorry to Bronaldo for trying to paint him as some sort of villain.

    Irrelevant? You are being punished for your offending slur, more chastisement will follow believe me.

    No one else sees it, but your attacks and slurs continue against mods via PM.

    Bronaldo is proving himself a villain. No apologies. Life will go on.

    Well it's wrong.

    You punish the (rule)offending post, not subsequent unrelated, non-(rule)offending posts.

    You're on a personal vendetta right now and abusing your mod powers.

    That puts you in the wrong.

    Serious question to other North Americans on here; I know you lot live in a PC-crazy world where words are considered insulting but it is acceptable to shoot an unarmed young black kid for wearing a hood in a white neighbourhood but do you guys really think calling someone a ****** as an insult a homophobic slur (to quote Jon Pall here). Not talking about the roots but as an insult, any worse than a choice of a dozen other words used as insults.

    As with anything, when the powers that be find it convenient, it will be so.

    Surely this shit should be resolved via PM with Bronaldo, not by escalating it on the public forum?
