Baldrick 1 Posted October 19, 2014 It is with deep regret that I have to announce the following. In line with upcoming and newly mandated UK laws regarding Internet trolling and the possible imposition of a 2 year custodial sentence under the new law for anyone ridiculing or flaming other Internet users, I will from this point onwards be adopting a more civil and respectful approach with regard to my future interactions with members on this forum, I think this new approach will be welcomed most by the sensitive ninnies among you and those of limited cranial capacity...( yes..you know who you are...and so do we ).....and of course any 'noob' who exhibits any degree of nincompoopery and or snivelling servile fawning upon Mods or senior members. If you find yourself in a position where you experience any kind of emotional distress brought on by the abuse of others and in particular by myself......then file a Hurt Feelings / Butt report with Mods before retiring to your blacked-out windowed bedroom and subsequently stuffing your coupon with copious amounts of Ben and Jerrys and Mars bars. The rest of you can fucking relax....you lot have passed the test....you're still idiots.....but through sheer persistence you've bobbed about like flotsam and jetsam and been indoctrinated...( certainly ..not welcomed )... into the bosom of the forum. Carry on ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bash64 17 Posted October 19, 2014 Definitely, the dawn of a new age. So... given that these same internet trolling laws have not been adopted in other countries, might you have left yourself open to the persecution of others who may continue to act with impunity? Or do the UK laws allow for some level of self defence? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baldrick 1 Posted October 19, 2014 It's not a new law...the law has been in force since 2010......it's a move to increase the penalty.....mostly aimed at fat-faced fukkers who have no life and who threaten others with rape or assault on social networks....JohnG has retired his 2 foot long trusty rebar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scorpion 0 Posted October 19, 2014 Erm just one minor point we are all technically doing illegal shit every time we sell a rep m2m. So noob abuse and trolling is just an extra crime. The new rules are more aimed at people who target others and threaten illegal acts or encorage suicide. So we should all be fine....Sundog acepted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
