Topic: a question for one of the mods

[Knight]

This place used to be full of name changes, in-jokes, characters who'd posted on RAWK for years. It was part of the culture of the site and formed its own little society. I'm quite happy to admit that I changed Al's username (not his photo mind). It was a light hearted bit of fun that I've not heard Al himself complain about? If he had, I'd have changed it back instantly. I didn't change it to anything rude, disrespectful or offensive. Al is one of the site's most established posters and I would hope he'd take the change in the spirit with which it was intended.

I have absolutely no idea why people on this thread are complaining about something that has nothing to do with them. Bore off, and Al please let me know if you want to chat about it.

Well that’s reassuring. It’s being used as a stick to beat him with in pretty unpleasant ways mind. And I’m asking the question because the personal attacks and insults on here are lowering the tone, you needn’t be defensive about it.

Speaking of name changes I don't think I need the 87 in my name anymore.

The other 86 Amir's that were here when I first joined have all left now.

[Red_Mist]

The mis-spelling change in mine was/is funny. I won't change it back.

I’ve never noticed that spelling before!

Username’s can be misleading…think I always assumed you to be a Turkish Arsenal fan. Which I guess either one or both are probably wrong!

Ah ok, I thought he was posting under 2 id's at the same time.

As you were ....

In one of Al’s response he describes himself as a mule so obviously not offended by the Eeyore renaming.

And I’m sure if he was unhappy he let you know , in detail, many, may times.

Who the fuck is Baldrick?

[Draex Navidad]

Back to your sex couch you, as I always read your CT incorrectly

One of the all-time classics...

I didn't notice the change either for a good while.

I'm neither... not that there's anything wrong with being Turkish...

Again, if Al is remotely concerned about it, he's welcome to post me and if I've upset or offended him then I will be happy to apologise.

Changing someone's name to a beloved Disney character is probably, on balance, neither a personal attack nor an insult. I'd say at worst I would put it in the category of "gentle ribbing". But as the opinions of the target of the joke are important, I'm happy to be persuaded otherwise by Al.

The toxicity on this site, where it exists, comes from aggression, relentlessly baiting people, and ultimately taking some things far too seriously.

Haha! I see what you did there.

[Bing Crosby was a prick]

I’d like to file a formal complaint for all 127 of my name changes since I joined (might actually be more than that!).

[John C]

Can this thread be deleted/merged

Didn't realise oojason had already made one

Done.

I think I might have made an innuendo about one of the mods amd it obviously came back to bite me on the arse

[Elmo saves christmas]

bite me on the arse

That's enough detail about you and the RAWK mods sex life, thanks.

[Draex Navidad]

Someone people will do anything for draft votes, shameless.

Is “it” the 5th Benitle’s preferred pronoun?

[Claire.]

Done.

Look at John doing actual mod things.

(I did look at it before, Barney, but then I couldn't find the other thread right in front of my eyes so didn't do it)

[Samie]

Still waiting to be confirmed as the next Pharaoh of Egypt.

Fair enough, thanks for engaging.

Perhaps it's an investiture rather than a confirmation...

Might ask the next time I'm in their 'company'

[O little Sausage of Bethlehem]

I mean, look at mine. I basically fuck chickens.

And I’m made up. Thanks VDM

You realise that I’m back, and you post an invite like that…

Welcome back SP!

Any chance the Manchester United thread can be unlocked, perhaps with an asterisk and request for no Greenwood talk?

Start a new one. Put No Greenwood in the title and OP. Can’t be arsed to tidy up the old one.

Any chance we can unlock the liverpools midfield thread?

Done.

By someone else, I can't take the credit for it

When I read this site on my mobile phone it looks the same as the desktop. Is there any way to change how it displays

[Twoturtleduvvas]

Can we have our Mo Salah thread back please? Or is it staying shut until the Saudi window closes?

[John C]

Unless one of the other Mods opens it, it might be best being left as a locked peaceful place for now

The WAP2 link in the footer looks very different.

I was planning on leaving it until after the Saudi window shuts.

Yeah I remember when Jim changed my name/CT once became a pea flew off his plate and he thought of me. (Hope he’s okay btw if anyone has been in touch with him?)

From what I’ve seen, Al finds the name change funny.
