Please God, no. No, no way and never in that order!
Why? It would be good to bring some traffic here, and a lot more effective than re-instating certain banned members.

Well yes. But you don't know me. I mean you're probably a paedophile, nobody knows.

Is that "in your opinion" or are you verging on slander by suggesting that someone may be a paedophile. Being branded a 'muppet' and a 'probable paedophile' are on completely different levels.

Within the context of "you don't know me, I don't know you", the speculative use of the term loses some impact; but James, you have been warned for the innappropriate use of this term in the past. Please don't make me revisit the issue with you again.

The plain fact is that it is an abhorrent act, and it is easy to see why people are outraged by its use as some kind of glib retort.

It goes outwith "acceptable boundaries" as far as insults go - even in a "hell hole" like Metropol.
