I love the jokes Keith, whether off topic or not, and often post in jest myself.
Its only the continuously disruptive person of which we've only had two, and the deliberately offensive of which we've also had just two, that I object to.
Since three of the four are no longer with us, we don't have much of a problem, and that's the way I'd like to keep it.
In the introduction to the new forum on my website and the opening post I made to kickstart this forum, I was impeccably polite, starting as I meant to go on. As almost the only person answering questions in the early months, I maintained those standards and feel I was at least in part responsible for making it the polite forum that it's been.
On two occasions when a new member has determinedly been consistently offensive, I've been instrumental in eventually driving them out and I make absolutely no apologies for that. The only alternative that I would entertain is for me to depart instead, since I can't stand the offensive forums that pervade the web, particularly some from the USA which seem to have started that objectionable trend.
