If I have to fork out for a Panama hat, I don’t want to be restricted to wearing it on Tuesdays! This may lead to a flounce.

Nazi like auto correction should only be applied to one word. Obtaining a new player has nothing to do with vocal talents - signing/singing!
And how about a ban for the response " Have you tried turning it on and off again?"

Leave it as it is, seems to work

No……would work as a cretin blanket. We need to know who they are
Everything is fine. You and your team deal with trolls and pollocks perfectly well. Pillocks have to be tolerated. We can't all be Shakespear, and it's perfectly fine to be wrong and annoying. But as we saw yesterday, some can be abusive (like the twerp who abused me yesterday). Then you slap them around a bit, metaphorically speaking, or ban them a bit.
All is well

it would be a duller place without these and other idioms.

I had never seen this before. What happened? Why did it end so abruptly?
Funny to think how much has changed in the Club/World since this was created over 10 years ago.

I was going to say the same. I'm trying to remember what happened, but there must have been another thread from around the same time in which an enormous, gold-plated flounce took place.

Have you considered renting it out?
It could put food on the table for all your siblings and an entire Ecuadorian village, over and over again.
Almost everyone is serious, but many of us do like a bit of low comedy. It's usually fairly obvious. For example, any post of mine with 'should of' in it will be facetious. We seem to have moved away from the sort of red-faced confrontation perpetrated by the likes of several noisy and now banned people with (frankly) underlying mental health issues (depression mostly). Now, being filleted and defenestrated by wit is generally fun, and I personally don't mind being thrown through a metaphorical window from time to time. That said, it can be easy to miss-read the room. I have done it many times. My weakness* is mistaking deadpan grumpiness for confrontation. Fortunately one of my good pals posts extreme grumpy messages on here, so I'm getting better at judging. I think that NSC is great fun, and is also becoming extremely informative about all things BHA. Many posters have a brilliant sense of the weft of the club, and I find that to be reassuring. After all we have been through.
