Turkish

I find it offensive and i expect most on this board will.

Thats brilliant that, very funny, offensive to muppets but brilliant all the same. Well done you.

No, you feel more sorry for them, you deliberately chose to say you feel sorry for me because you knew of the connotations. You could have said you felt sorry for another poster but you deliberately didn't and you now wear your faux donator to the Turkish cause as badge of honour. (See, this speaking for other people and telling them what they think is easy isn't it)

Dont feel sorry for me, my feelings aren't hurt, feel for people speak for other people and spend their whole lives in state of constant offence, even at the most innocent and inane of things, it makes me wonder how they manage to leave the house each day.

that is quite offensive, i know some of you lot are eaily offended so to fit in on here i am offended by this and expect you to be infracted for this unnesssary comment and abuse of another poster both of which are against the forum rules.

I think you'll find if you read an above post from a forum hero it was mentioned so i was proven right, something along the lines of "my love for starting threads like this one and the anti semtism one along with my avatar" was said (although i didn't start the anti sematic one but why let the truth get in the way of a chance for unfounded criticism).

Err no i dont, i'm simply replying to people who are judging and being critical, like yourself. If it was that offensive then why, despite having it for months, have no Mods asked me to change it? I'm not "crying" about it, merely pointing out how quickly some of our forum superstars and guardians of politcal correctness are to critise and accuse based on assumptions and ignorance. Ironic that this is the very thing they would accuse racist of. As for yourself, you appear to be very good at speaking for me and telling me what i think, maybe you've spent a bit too much time watching Papa Lazarou's circus act.

This is my favourite character from the show, why should i settle for someone else? Why should i switch it to someone else because people are ignorant of the show and have their own agendas? The avatar has been explained, not that it needed to be, it's the usual people making an issue of it, it's not my fault people assumed it was something it wasn't. I've had it for a while now and no mods have contacted me to ask me to change it due to the offence it may cause some, so clearly not offensive at all. We are all tolerant people (when it suits us), so i dont see why i should change my avatar as it's simply a character from a TV show, live and let live dont forget. And just for you Joensuuhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdtfH2D8j9g&feature=related

Should i put a disclaimer underneath it just to satisfy everyone? Should i go on every thread and post who my avatar is at the bottom of every post just in case it offends people? It's already been discussed on another thread, i didn't feel the need to justify it again and again. It's only an avatar FFS.

No, it really is.

Yes it is. This place is the most important thing in my life. I've already said plenty of times, my avatar was selected based on liking the character from the show, nothing more nothing less, it's other people who have made an issue out of it. If people want to be judgemental and leap to conclusions about it and even when told what it is still continue to attempt to justify their accusations thats up to them, but it says more about them than it does about me.

Again, more sweeping statements, you really need to check your facts before commenting otherwise no one will take your "new very important political views" seriously in the wider world. I didn't start the anti sematic campaign thread and i started this thread and most seem to agree with me that being arrested for playing Kung Fu fighting at a party is ridiculous, as do the police who have dropped the charges. That combinded with my totally innocent avatar of a character from a comedy show led me to the conclusion that you reserve the right to be a petty haughty, judgemental scum bag without actually being called one, quick to accuse and criticise yet unable to back down when proven wrong, you'll probably make a great politician.

I am hurt by this, my raison d'etre is to be popular on this forum. As i say above i didn't think there was any need to justify the avatar as there was no racist intent whatsoever. People started to happily throw around the accusations and make assumptions looking for subliminal messages of racism when there weren't any and when corrected failed to show any humility for leaping to these conclusions it's not me that should be made the black sheep (can i say that? i hope no one is offended by this) of this forum, it's those that are oh so quick to judge.

Again you'd need to read the anti semitism at football thread.

Avatar assasination, who'd have thought something so insignificant could cause such a stir, some people have too much time on their hands and too little going on to occupy their minds it would seem.

Sorry, i forgot myself, for a second thought this was a football forum.

I just dont feel the need to justify myself over it, especially to the judgemental, clueless majority on here who are quick to criticise and show haughtiness, yet slow to apologise and show humilty.

Last year was horrible, freezing cold night, crap pitch, crap performance and i am sure you or T spilt your pie down the back of my jacket!!!

I find this very offensive myself, also those that leap to make accusations based on assumptions and ignorance.

I'm still waiting for your apology for your comments last week Verbal, or at very least justification for your comments. Do you think we'll go up this weekend by the way? How do you think Huddersfield will get on at Brighton?

NO worries, it was a follow on from the racist accusations i got last week with no substances other than speculation and leaping to conclusions.

This was on another thread where i was accused and i quote of being a "petty racist scumbag" based on a comination of my avatar and saying there was no mass of racial hatred towards Jews in football grounds in England.

As i say, there was no reason to think there would be. I dont see why i should justify myself to those that have a superiority complex and take the moral high ground. Maybe they should be a bit more humble and stop leaping to conclusions before making sweeping, ill founded accusations? Talking of which i am still waiting for my apology from Verbal for his comments.

:lol::lol:

If it makes you happy.
