sintoma...

Can we drop the word 'retarded'?  This isn't America, and it's a word we'd prefer not used on blonde.

Thanks.

this is possibly the thing that confuses me most on blonde, the bizzarre singling out of one word as unacceptable

[Marky147]

Congrats again on the score Cos and ul for more. An epic story behind how you came to play too.

Moooaaaaaaaaaaar plz!!

[Girgy85]

Thread is a huge slowroll! We will never get the final part

More plz

I will say it because I don't expect anyone else will.

I think it was out of order to take advantage of the guys obvious lack of knowledge and vulnerability in taking the seat off him for €350 and 10%.

I know people will say it's a cut-throat world and all that but just because the guy didn't know any better doesn't make it ok to steam in and totally exploit him.

Punters Lounge must be a trainwreck of a forum,i'd have thought any moderators there would have at least made the guy aware of the kind of money he could ask for for the ticket.

Glad he gets a bit more due to you getting a good score in it at least,but he shouldn't have had to rely on you binking to see that kind of return.

the guys a romainian student last time i checked the life style there isnt as lavish as it is in the UK 350E€ is alot of money although he could of gotten more there is more than likely no chance in hell he would of been able to afford a trip to dublin to play the event and 350€ will go along way to paying his expenses

there are a number of words that are unacceptable on blonde and some we frown apon but tolerate if used sparely and in context

the word in question here is a personal hatred of mine and saw me get banned from the Championship manger forum (before it changed to FM) when i reported over 365 uses of the word in under an hour

the mods were fully supportive in my views on this and it was agreed the term wasnt acceptable
but obviously we cant make a simple request on the forum without getting questioned and
asked to justify ourselfs
btw
this morning i had cornflakes for breakfast and tomorrow i plan on having alpen (with no added sugar)
i belive reddog is hoping for a full english and ginger is hooping for breakfast in bed while kinboshi is usaully to busy for breakfast meanwhile tighty is having all of the above.

is there anything else you guys want to know

ps sorry greakstein for going off on a rant on your great trip report i look forward to part 2 and i will proberly delete this post tomorrow when i have cooled down a little

[byronkincaid]

i don't disagree but think you will find that it becomes common, especially with the internet. similar to the word moron years ago?

No its fair comment - I wouldn't make that particular comment because I don't know what I would do in that situation (prob same as OP tbh)

TBF the guy didn't lack knowledge and vunerability what he lacked was time.  He was prepared to go to Dublin but a couple of days before he had problems that prevented him going.  When he contacted Paddy they said he had until Wednesday morning to do the transfer which gave him a day to find a buyer.  Also any buyer was on short notice to arrange flights, accomm etc.

On top of this the guy had expenses in his package that he kept and he was given more than the deal he originally wanted, everyone was happy, so whats the problem?
