taffy2jeffmorgan Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 I am back after a short imposed forum ban for the inappropriate use of an adjective, which was part of the content of my original posting entitled " Dam Busters remake " I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to the forum and to assure all that no malice or racial slur was intended. Thank you. 3
Mastermariner Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 I think your apology is widely accepted and understood. FYI The dog have in the remake been renamed Digger. Perhaps it is better so. Master
taffy2jeffmorgan Posted January 12, 2014 Author Posted January 12, 2014 I agree, and thank you for that. JM.
Scarecrow Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 It takes a big man to apologise for his mistakes. It's hard for us white folks to understand how awful that word is. It was/is used to remove the humanity of an entire race for exploitation pre and post emancipation. As a British citizen I find it a very embarassing footnote in our history. 3
Feathered_IV Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 Welcome back. Good news there too. Much better than Trigger, which had also been suggested. 1
EdwardTheGreat Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 I must say that I like it, how the moderators keep this forum a nice place without the usual flame wars etc. I was banned for a little too, some weeks ago, because I got mad about some childish stuff of some users.... It was OK in the end, though a warning would have been enough for that.
Feathered_IV Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 I've never been banned from a forum, ever. Sometimes there aint no justice
DD_bongodriver Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 it's like that for me with lottery wins
Bearcat Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 I am back after a short imposed forum ban for the inappropriate use of an adjective, which was part of the content of my original posting entitled " Dam Busters remake " I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to the forum and to assure all that no malice or racial slur was intended. Thank you. I can't speak for anyone else but I appreciate the apology.. and as I told you in the PM I know you meant no harm .. but as you can see this topic 9 times out of 10 and usually very quickly escalates into a mess if it is not dealt with and even in that context we just cannot allow even the toe in the door on that because someone will come along and try to pry it open.
