binchickendreaming Posted November 30, 2024 Share Posted November 30, 2024 You know, the Formal Warnings and Bans forum tells me that some mothers do have them! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0xC0000005 Posted December 3, 2024 Share Posted December 3, 2024 Obvious bigot/troll. It is surprising they only received a warning with that user name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlienSlof Posted December 3, 2024 Share Posted December 3, 2024 Actually. I wondered about that too. I've seen less offensive (and a few I didn't get the reference for) getting a swift banhammer up the bum, but this one is just slapped on the wrist. This one made me shake my head: 'Mind your Ps and Qs' is an old-fashioned comment about having good manners. My mum used to drill this into me all the time as a kid. This person has none despite the name! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought it was related to typesetting on a manual printing press, as the lower case version of those letters could be easy to mix up.

AlienSlof Posted December 3, 2024 Share Posted December 3, 2024 I didn't know about the typesetting - learning something new every day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlienSlof Posted December 4, 2024 Share Posted December 4, 2024 This one gave me a reason to smile today: He mailed support for help on a pirated game, but did it quite politely! It makes a change to see someone being polite and... minding their Ps and Qs! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes a change to see someone being polite and... minding their Ps and Qs! He's a typesetter????? Here's another one that didn't bother to read the EULA when he signed up. Else, he may have noticed that admitting to having a pirated game is grounds for immediate dismissal. Granted, he WAS very polite about the whole thing. But, asking for someone to remote access his machine????? Hhhmmm..... Not sure how wise that is.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
