Embedded media problem: Fixed this post for Won Ton.

Are you saying that in the last three days there have been no mistakes in posts that needed correcting? Is that your claim Bletch? Allow this thread to slowly disappear and you won’t be judged badly for it. I told you before that you’d never be able to maintain your initial levels of interference.

Spelling: Edited the spelling of the word Bletch in this post. It was onerously(sic) spelt as Bletchley instead of Beltch(sic).

That’s right Fatso, not a single error until yours above.

Cosmetic: Added an apostrophe to make cant into can’t in this post.

I don’t want to be a pain on this thread and I don’t want you to think that I am deliberately trying to derail your efforts, but I am very anti admin editing. I shall explain why. By having someone else edit my mistakes or anyone else’s mistakes, what is really being said is that the world (or this board) is perfect and mistakes are not allowed to be seen. But as humans we are flawed. We are flawed in our lives and in our spelling and in our ability to link videos. There is nothing wrong with that. It is a reminder that we are human, that we are fallible. A synthetic reproduction of our posts and our lives with all the creases ironed out is a false impression. It would be like removing the rain and only ever having sunny days. It would be like removing suffering from the world and only having happiness. Nature is cruel but not maliciously cruel. We are a small part of a larger system and that system is full of mistakes, errors, sad things, bad things and typos.

Let us be human, Bletch. That is all I ask.

I’ve locked Glasgow Saint’s FIFA 15 thread for the following reasons:-

  1. I don’t believe for a second that it’s a genuine call for XBox 360 players to play FIFA with Glasgow_Saint.

  2. There are better ways to find someone to play with, in-game.

  3. Even if it were all above board, and not merely a mechanism for GS to dick about with someone, it’d still be fucking shit thread.

Have another go, Glasgow. Do better.

Well, it’s not exactly like that, but there are similarities.

I made this decision unilaterally on the basis of remembering Glasgow’s modus operandi.

Edited the title of the Bearsy’s match previews thread.

Too many ‘e’ s.

That’s too many 'e’s in the title, and not too many ‘e’ s in Morris Chutney - Lawyer.

Fowllyd’s meltdown thread seems to contain a few typos…

I locked Bazza’s thread as he’s covering similar ground to the EU “Sotonians position on”. The site does try to suggest similar topics when creating a new discussion. Try to use that if you can.

Just edited Barry’s hilariously titled “Sleep Wanking” thread to something that’ll get him the help he needs, without using a swear word in the title.

Bazza, for the record, while we swear like particularly uncouth motherfuckers in threads, we tend to keep foul language out of titles.

Now locked after Barry changed it back.

Guess he’ll just have to work out how to do it alone. I suggest you sleep on it, Bazza.
