Unfortunately there are more like him.
Its terribly disheartening as it makes you feel ashamed of your own race just so that someone can take you seriously.

And yet no action is ever taken upon it...


own race? :confused:
#235383
Top 10 plays on SportsCenter!!!!!

#5 Manchester United's Carlos Tevez goal against Leiceter :rofl::rofl::rofl:

I love it how those Bozos know their futbol!!!!!! the silly media :wink:

What I'm saying is that Brittish Media is more polished in F1 matters,also the UK is the Mecca of F1 since most teams are based there! It's only my opinion!

What does Brittish mean?

I was thinking the same and looked it up. Low and behold it's listed in some places as an alternative spelling for British :yikes::nono::yikes::nono:



He posts nationalistic drivel like that and the most you can both think to call it up on is an extra t he put spelling British.

Unles sum1 iz tipin lyk dis, calling out grammar mistakes, strike that, one mistake, usually points that ones own argument is flailing and so as a last resort spelling is challenged.

Nationalistic drivel, doesn't have to be fed into. If you think it's drivel, leave it at that. Most members that come to the thread for F1 discussion and light banter will not respond. If you choose to see it as an attack or dismissive comment towards another nation or people and respond as being hurt or feeling attacked, it's just going to escalate into another argumentative thread about nothing with substance. That's what the report button is for.

I get it, there's nationalistic pride. In the US we're accustomed to ignoring nationalistic comments because everyone hates us :hehe: It's just pointless to respond to anything that isn't even an attack or a well defined argument but simply an opinion. Like I said though, I do get it, but here it's more of a regional or state pride (since everyone hates Texas, California, South Carolina, and New Jersey. Heck some states are so inconsequential they aspire to make it to the hated list.

If you come to the forum looking to stir the pot and incite a fight, let me tell you, it's not hard to do and someone will bite at the slightest bait... it's your choice to bite or let it go... believe me, one person arguing by themselves won't argue for long.

SO... it's the moderators job to moderate things keep them from escalating out of control and generally diffuse volatile situations, and a well placed bit of humor that does go a long way towards diffusing things when they're on the cusp of yet another meaningless fight. If we argued more and fought less, we'd all be master-debaters in no time. :D

There's a big difference between arguing and fighting, and that line is crossed when it's not longer about the debate but about winning when you resort to attacking them instead of their facts or opinions.

Some are here to gain knowledge of the sport, discuss thing, trash talk, and generally enjoy the fact that we're all fans of the same sport. Some just come itching for a fight or worse, itching to incite a fight and let the peanut gallery go at it while they revel in their self professed genius.

It's your choice boys and girls...

Just remember no personal attacks or derogatory/defamating/racist comments... and bring plenty of constructive arguments or entertaining posts to the forum. If you feel someone is talking out their a$$, not responding to their "drivel" is the best way to shut it up. :thumbup:

No aim intended... but therein lies the issue... instead of seeing it as aim, take the positive route and call it a catalyst, your post inspired others. :D
