Who let the children near the Forum controls... [Archive]

Can we please have the name of this forum section changed back to F1...

Thanks!

As with all children, including mine, the tantrum will pass, they will tidy up their mess, and puts things back to how they were soon enough.

In the meantime, I find ignoring them best, otherwise they get spoilt.

Well, the new name isn't exactly inacurate... ;)

How about - the difference of opinion that some are not mature enough to realise thread?

When you use public transport, you soon learn that a sense of humour is sucked out of you the minute you step aboard....

....assuming the train is actually running of course. ;)

Has there been an unusual amount of anti-Ferrari sentiment on the board recently? I don't visit as often as I used to and things are pretty tame on that front, certainly compared to the good ol' days of 6 or 7 years ago.

What prompted this amusing, if somewhat juvenile, "attack" on out beloved forum?

Not content with abusing one forum title, I see that the 'chit chat' has also now been tampered with...

What a great advert for the Forum... well done.

Mind you, someone had to have reported it, so I guess it is believable.....

I find neither the new title for the forum , nor the title of this thread , funny .

I find both dreadfully disrespectful .

And , I am insulted that having this opinion seems to mean that I have no sense of humour .

in the immortal words of a certain mod.....Can't allow that on F1 Forum...not even for fun, sorry

Besides, it can not be "bashing", when it is simply true statements of fact and not the ill spirited whinings of the jealous...........OTOH, the new title for chit chat is MORE accurate....opps, i can see a new title: ill spirited whinings of the jealous of ferrari....

I've missed this whole encounter, but I assume from the above the 'Formula One forum' name was changed to 'ferrari bashing forum'. If so, we should keep it as I'll have more fun :D

All I can see is a forum called the "Formula 1" forum. I don't see why this is any way distasteful. Still, if you disagree, you are more than welcome to go off and join another forum. We won't miss you :)

I don't get what the problem was. Are some people that uptight that they can't handle a bit of a joke.

It's amazing that people can't see that Mark himself changed the names of the forums and somehow see this as some hacker attacking the forum :laugh:

First people getting angry at a post getting edited and now people getting annoyed at what was a pretty obvious and (if you've been on the forum a while) rather hilarious joke.

So I think this community would be best served if they let Starter out of his cage and ban them both permanently. I don't know if that would be too harsh a punishment. Not to worry though, as soon as he ascends to the thrown we will have a coup d'état, and insert Easy as the Prime Minister, Gloomyday as the sergeant at arms and provider of bitches. Donk's as our foreign affairs minister. ioan and Tamberello as ambassadors of goodwill, Rollo as our Nobel laureate Mia to make coffee VOP Propaganda minister, Eki will receive a chair on the Supreme Court. You can answer the phone at NORAD, and I will be in charge of woman’s criminal detention :)
