Gary Glitter

[The modfather]

I thought you were going to proof read your posts... There really are certain things that shouldnt be joked about in a public forum.. Make these comments down the pub with your mates if you really must, but you never know if you are upsetting people on forums, unless of course............

whos that directed to?

Probably me.I have just edited a remark I made about the Gary Glitter look-alike.I seem to cause offence on a regular basis.

Agree

With Emdee in the post just above me who agreed with Tosh in the post just above his.

Didn't see your post before it was edited Roger, but Gary Glitter appears to be a particularly sensitive subject. The trouble is, the public and media take a delight in ridiculing people like him, and digging up the dirt, giving him a high profile. That is obviously why he ends up, rightly or wrongly, being discussed on public forums, and made fun of. He is seen as "fair game".

I did see the post before it was edited, and as before, what is acceptable in company down the pub is entirely different to what is acceptable on a public forum.I honestly thought the lesson would have been learned.

You have to feel sorry for this guy:

Is he still working?

Has he now shaved his head, bought a pair of metal rimmed glasses, and grown a wispy grey beard?
