  1. I’ve logged in today to find that my profile picture has disappeared. It was a picture of our Union Flag which I’m pretty sure isn’t an illegal image and the word Brexit, which I’m pretty sure was a free, democratic vote, and again I’m pretty sure that isnt breaking any forum rules. So I’m assuming it was removed by a Mod without consulting me as it’s not to their own political beliefs.

    it’s an interesting position when I moderator decides that they will impose their own form of political censorship on the forum.

    I’m assuming that had I used a picture of the Labour Party logo or Sir Kier then I’d still have my profile picture.

    So I’ve changed my post to Winston Churchill. Can I just check, is a democratically elected prime minister of this country acceptable to the moderators? Or would you prefer maybe George Orwell?

  5. Glad at least someone on here realised I was having a laugh. Remember when you were allowed to do that? Before the dark vale of offence descended to envelop us all.

  6. To be on the safe side, I'd change your avatar to a pic of Jeremy Corbyn...

    I think you should start a Bobby Sands like dirty protest.



    BTW - I'm not a mod - just and ordinary muggle these days.

  12. Blimey and people said my musings on Brexit were too political for this forum. That’s really took it up a gear.

    No modding of anything here…. Politics is personal; as long as a persons avatar isn’t offensive, sweary, or actually illegal (!) I’ve no bother with it.

    * this is not an open invitation to try and find out what is offensive, sweary or actually illegal ;)
