The joker is well over used and to added to posts that mock another’s members opinion.

If you want to post a load smilies head to a chat and games thread.

Also the use of the words hate,hateful racists and racism should be defined, as in the media or the public.

It should not used on the forum implying members are being hateful or racist.

Also instant bans for taking a thread off topic.

These measures will get serious debates and news back to being a debate about the subject not the member.

I completely agree with you...

That’s all very well but I’m neither racist or hateful but been called out for both for disliking someone of mixed race. It’s how people with no common sense like to react....
Leave it to the mods they do a great job...

Sometimes, people take little things very seriously. It's usually projection innit. Trying to control something silly like smilies on a forum because they feel like aspects of their real life are out of control.

How do you know this, are you regularly infracted or something

I do try to lift my finger off the red triangle for a few minutes each hour to give myself a break

I think I’ve only ever used the report button once and that was only because it was double cowardly to be racist via PM.

I find them quite pretentious at times, but not to the point where i see it as an issue. I rarely use them, but don't see them as a problem, so whatever.
