I saw that Cindy had commented on the Jokes thread. I checked at the time, it wasn't closed.

I notice this morning the Jokes thread has now been closed.

A great forum being ruined by immature ^&*#@. who either can't read rules, can't understand rules or don't give a damn about anyone else.

Enough said by me.

No, you haven't lost the plot.

Yes you are, sign everything over to me .. ahaha...

Yep, I've lost it for sure, now it's closed again 

That's it, I'm going down the back yard to dig a hole then shoot myself 

 

It wasn't the "Joke" section of the forum but a Thread in General titled ''Jokes".

---

 OK you are sacked 

I can't see any topic in General titled "Jokes"

Bugga, what did I miss? 

Opps, I found it Page 2

 I blame my short legs  can't get around these topics too quick.

Met a lot of blokes on lifes journey who used to take 2 1/2 hours to watch 60 Minutes so don't feel left out.

Can you lose something that most people consider you have already lost ?

(here's 2 cents worth )

I dont spend much time trawling through this forum (I do like it, though mainly because I can find things of interest) and it was THIS thread that directed me to the 'jokes' thread (now closed)......etc

OK, I reckon ALL forum members are better contributers if we conform with the agreed rules of membership here, regarding our contributions and where they are placed, no exceptions (because there are too many members now for exceptions to be ok)......

IMHO, its an enormous task to maintain/administer/supervise a 'well-oiled', high usage webforum such as this (thank you again, Cindy) and so...... well  surely, the obligation of conformance is upon us, as members....with every post. 

To act otherwise is not conducive to this forums progressive future!

 Well said, nobody is saying your can't add humour to a reply in the context of the topic as some are implying, just put jokes where they belong, in the Jokes Section, pretty simple really 

Hi all. The guts of it is for scribes, yes ALL of us, to lift our game and make the Admin teams' job as easy as possible. If you can't shuffle your own pack don't play cards.

who needs a joke section when we have Dougwe, dazren and Vic41, 3 of the biggest jokers you could ever meet. 

and to stay on topic, you lost the plot when you were 18 years old.

Do any of the GNs ever trawl through other forums? I find this one to be far more organised than most. Thanks Cindy, but also I'm sure that most contributors to this forum are more careful about where they post than contributors to other forums. So lighten up, I think most of you are doing quite well in comparison to the rest of the online world.

IMHO banter is just that and doesn't belong under "jokes" anyway

---

Nobody has suggested that banter or humour belongs in the jokes section, my comments from a post further down here;

"Well said, nobody is saying your can't add humour to a reply in the context of the topic as some are implying, just put jokes where they belong, in the Jokes Section, pretty simple really   "

As for other forums, I found the opposite, step out of line where you post your subjects and they come down on you with a ton of bricks, usually they have more than one moderator or admin too.   I am talking about RV forums, not sure which ones you are talking about.

That's what we are trying to do, and you've commented on the "final word" in the wrong thread, but that's no surprise, your attitude is the one that is dragging this forum down.
