The comment you are talking about attacked you (and was based on your behaviour on this board), not your family. None of your family were slandered.

Thanks for your take on it, I have to say I think they were and still do so it must be me.
Five pages of this? Crikey!

This is what I reacted to, I was accused of terrorising my family, I was only writing comedy mate attack me all day, most do and I deserve it.
The one thing that was lacking for me in every reply to date, is addressing wether a posters family is a legitimate target?
At the time this was posted I had left the board, I'm just waiting to leave it for good today but while I still have the ability to respond I will.
Q, Is it right to bring in a posters family?
Once my memberships cancelled I will never look at this site again as it would only wind me up and I would have no way of replying, so you can say what you want when I've gone because I won't see it.
But while I'm here if one person can come on and justify the use of a posters family as a legit target then I would be interested to see the chain of thought behind that one.
She did not attack your family at all, she was saying that the way you talk to people on here conjures the image of family life at your house that is contrary to your statements about your home life. That is 100% about how you behave on here, nothing to do with attacking your family.
Have you been taking lessons from David Smith about how to leave a forum? You're "I'll leave when my membership is cancelled but until then I'll call you all wankers" is like an exact duplicate of his departure.
Teddy, I don't want to see you go under a cloud like this. I think the only person who can clarify what was meant is keewik herself.
I agree with sglen and other posters that it seemed aimed at you and not your family, it was an insinuation that you must be a tyrant at home going on your persona on the boards...for what it's's worth I believe it was uncalled for and unkind, someones family life is a sensitive one so I can see why you snapped...but...she was going on her perception of you, you got to admit you have crossed her a few times on here and put the whole thing into context.
Put your energies into writing, and don't be going off in a bleedin huff!

I would have took it that way too Teddy. It was not a nice thing to say.

It's got pathos twist and turns you're not expecting. It's almost Russian. Perhaps Gorky? Anyhoo the rule is in any pseudo-Russian attempt at drama somebody must hang/shoot/behead/stab/drown themselves. I know who I'd vote for Merry Christmas everyone
Teddy, I remember an incident where I dared to critisise one of your Sketches...or rather asked you to explain the punchline to me. You immediately called me a coathanger and my country a "nation of coathangers". I didn't report you because I thought you're just a dick with an anger problem.
You really are a surprisingly touchy git for someone who is no stranger to insulting other people and getting personal.

Only happy with someone who 'completely' agrees with him, all other comments rebuffed and that disappoints me, shame there could be no compromising.
Take care Teddy, will miss your sketches.
Yes, quite. Teddy, if you're reading this, look after yourself...but you *really really* should try to calm down about stuff, you'll definitely be happier for it.
Quote: Teddy Paddalack @ 1st December 2013, 1:14 AM GMTI admit I can be the biggest big mouthed dickhead on here and God knows I've offended more people than any other poster.
I think that the best line you've ever posted! well done, now we all agree on something! (sorry couldn't find a zebra)

It's what he would have wanted.
P.S. his probably taking his anger out on his Wife and kids!
(Would be a very inaccurate statement and not in any way fair!)
I think maybe it's time to close this thread! Feels a bit wrong to go on talking about the man after he's left.
