Ambassador, please can I be considered for a managerial position? I have a Visa Card a Mastercard and an Amex, so I can't offend anyone there. I'm never offended but some say, an offender and I have someone else, close to me, that is considered an offender too, so I qualify at 2 and 4 of the above....

Will be back on that after consulting with Ms. Sutra...

Ok now... I find the 'complainers' more annoying than the so-called 'baiters'. If you think someone is "baiting" ignore it (i.e. don't "bite") and move on...try to open up an "intersting" thread instead of "reprimanding" the "baiter", blah, blah, bl...

Depends whether your first language is English or not. Makes sense either way, so no need to split hairs. Really! I don't think it would have anything to do with whether English is a person's first language or not. How would that be? One version is grammatically incorrect the other is not (it does ...

This Offendatorium company is great. I heard back from Ms. Sutra and you are in luck; there are at least 64 available.

*shuffles the CV's for a second look*

^^^ agreed but "off topic " (about whether English is first language or not)

Back to grammar. Yes, Posters' age is correct because it is the "possesive" of the "age of the posters" and it is "singular" because the thread is about the "average" age (there being one average) not the indiviaul poster's age (note the apostrophe) in the rig...

@ arniegang, Here is a suggestion; what if the mods did nothing for a week (no editing, deleting, moving, etc.), exept for deleting spams (easy to spot :wink: ). Since there is only a small group of posters I will say that nothing will happen to the forum. It may make it better as the baiters will k...

Have a great Eid holiday. May i add Peace, Happiness and Good Health to all of you and your families.

"Families?" I know, I know... (is it "up to 4"?)

EID MUBARAK.

Will be "trickly". There are those who think it great "feel good" story. Others will think it is no time to be spending money in lavish ceremonies when many are unemployed. The media will love it; lost of tabloid stuff. *booking rooms in London for 2 middle weeks in August 2011 :...

And who is going to reign you in???? That is the big question!!

I say he is reigning himself in with all those inane posts.

You can't start discussing ages and average ages and expect the actuary not to comment (I'm sure there's a law somewhere that says I am obliged to weigh in .. :) ) Suffice to say, IMHO BM has won this round - the correct grammatical phrase is 'posters' ages' .. not ' posters' age' - but to be fair ...

Obviously the answer to the OP is: YES.

And mistanken in the belief of "victory" (see previous post and OP)

Can I ask if anyone else has received a 'threatening' PM? Now it's not in my nature to complain, I can honestly say I've never complained to anyone about anything said to me or about me on an internet forum, but I ask myself when do I start? If action is taken against a person on the amount of comp...

What's the difference? From a non-racist point of view.

There was a period a few years ago when we had some PM 'stalkers' and the issue was simply resolved by the Mods and Admins. If a member receives threatening or improper contact, then they can either ignore it or report it to the Mods or Admins as they feel necessary. A call will be taken as to whet...

What do they do?

Moderators, please see PM I just received from "desertdudeshj". Please do something about this (I think I read you will ban him). Hey Ambassador stop posting on this forum or I will send someone to beat you and your family up so you'll never walk again p.s. See what I mean about the sillin...

I haven't been to one but I'm wondering how they are - any thoughts?

They were ok a few years back, minus the ogling workers who travel around in groups and stand over top of female sunbathers to get a closer look. I'm not sure about the current state of the water because of the sewage issues. Maybe someone else has more details. I've heard about the workers and in ...

I've got my own little private patch of sand but it is always good to visit other spots. My daughter used to have her own patch of sand. I used to put a lid on it at night because the cat used to do all sorts of nasties in it. Do you find you have to put a lid on yours too? :D :lol: :lol: :lol:

BM, you may be suffering from a case of threatinitis - we've got a cure for that at the Offendatorium.

Fully booked at the moment (from just a few threads ) but will put you on the waiting list just in case!
