Yes pumphol, but what was the reason for him to post it? It's not as if he was replying to a question, he posted that to backup his dislike for him. That is what surprises me.

Depressing and unfathomable. As has previously been stated - we all haven't got much longer to go

I was sure it would only be a month. GL for the future Slippy.

Perhaps the person has to be asian or appear on television, or both, in order for you to to be banned from here for making comments about them.
Menelaus and northernlad made far worse comments over the last 6 months towards Eeternal Optimist on the politics forum, but none of them had to do with the colour of his skin. He was called every name under the sun, and when he didn't bite immediately, they slowly turned their remarks towards his disabled wife. EO is not asian, neither does he appear on television, so those remarks must be okay. |

where in the post did he dislike Rishi Persad ? I think he didn't approve of his coverage of horse racing which at best is light-hearted and not for serious afficianados. Nobody could imagine Rishi smoking ganja or going off to an Al-Queda training camp ... perhaps the anti Mick Fiztgerald posts will be investigated for racialism also ? |

There is a long history of betfair getting it wrong
there was a popular forumite called bert who came up against a troll who wished his wife and baby would die bert was banned for retaliation. |

A completely ridiculous decision, Slippy Blue is a thoroughly decent bloke, honest and true.
Despite being on here for over 11 years, I have never had any respect for Betfair as a company. They have maintained (without enthusiasm) this forum, but they show little or no community spirit themselves. The words leech and parasite spring to mind. Just my personal opinion. |
|
By:
As others have said, I have seen some really nasty stuff posted on here which has gone totally unpunished.
I have tried hard to see how either of his comments can be construed as racist - and failed miserably. The lunatics have truly taken over the asylum. |

Sorry to hear about Slippy
( just back off hols) - He was an alright guy. I remember him for his offer of complimentary tickets to forumites for various Race meetings. Very obliging on that. Slightest thing is a ban for last 10 years . Since a company was supposedly assigned the task Of monitoring the forum. Per the head honcho then. Wait until it happens to you - you will be astounded You do not need to swear or rant as you would expect -- Just copy a newspaper article and miss something Minor in the pasted text -- which you don't realise and even later still don't think when pointed out is a problem -- it happens !! Best of luck Slippy. Soon be nobody left . |

A mate of mine joined BF and is betting with them.
He told me he cannot post on the Forum as there is now a 6 month " waiting period" before new accounts are eligible to post on it. |

I wouldn't be surprised if Betfair became just another bookie
... and not an exchange |

This is not only sad but very unfair.

It's a defamation of Slippy's character.

wd on the comeback tonight Slippy, doubt you've enjoyed a season as much as this one for a long time

Bugsy Suarez has made my week..

Hope you've enjoyed The Eagles tonight Slippy - even better if you were at the ground.
What a brilliant noise the Palace fans make. |
|
By:
Thing is, there was nothing even remotely racist about the comments made.
|
|
By:
He did have an unhealthy fascination with large no necked women though..
|
|
By:
Comments were removed from the thread, so we're not sure exactly what was posted. Nobody gets a lifetime ban for nothing. I'd be surprised if Slippy got his ban from the posts that we have seen, that would be very harsh.

Letitia's not so repulsive. I'd have a go after 8 pints.

That was an opportunity missed tonight. We should have organised a forum streak in support of slippy at the palace match.

Letitia's not so repulsive. I'd have a go after 8 pints. Remember that show 'Name that Tune' from the 70's? I'd goose that bítch in ONE - after ONE pint!  In fact, I'm desperate and I wouldn't need to be gassed to do the business...she's quite masochistically charming and 'jugular' with it though the remnants of Phil Mitchell's jízz would be a slight deterrent, hence the ONE pint  |

I reckon we'll find everyone's level eventually with 8 pints being a fiend that you'd accept fellatio from and ONE pint being a reasonably fcukable MILF that you'd be embarrassed to tell your buddies you did the deed with but from whom there's no way you'd decline a Joseph Blob
I'd be more interested in (obviously for research purposes) 'off the scale' material like Clair Baldy minge who I wouldn't touch with yours and if the scale was actually enforced, I'd be on a life-support machine (due to severe intoxication) before I could even contemplate a gorilla salad  You may have already surmised that I've got through a sizeable bottle tonight |
