No? You refuse to tone down your inflammatory behavior? I believe I've been fair in asking you to moderate your inflammatory behavior and you now resort with being antagonistic towards a mod?

Please cut it out or you may find yourself temporarily banned. This site, forum and thread is for everyone to contribute to and is not just a podium for you to argue in an antagonistic fashion with other members on here, or mods for that matter. In order to spell it out to you, here are the two rules you have broken.

1. BritishExpats.com is an interactive site, and everyone who participates is "in it together", please treat others the way you wish to be treated. Personal attacks will not be tolerated. Challenge others' points of view and opinions, but do so respectfully and thoughtfully ... without insult or personal attack.

4. Trolling on this site is not tolerated. We define trolling as any inflammatory threads or posts that are started with the sole intent of upsetting or antagonizing other members. Anyone found making such posts will be removed from the forums.

Please refrain from your behavior on this threadas I have asked repeatedly.

And this is my last request.

I suggest you read the site rules as I've posted above and do the same thing.

You're too smart to be stupid.

It seems that Aussies, Kiwis and South Africans are very similar and are quite often categorised as arrogant by Brits. We think it's just because we like to tell it like it is.

So, on the basis of returning this thread to a 'sensible debate'.

Does that mean if you call me "an ignorant tw@t" you are telling it like it is, but if I was to do the same, being English, I would be being arrogant and rude?. How does that work then?


Keep in mind that I have yet to meet any Australian I have considered rude or arrogant. I also don't mean you personally, just all Colonials !!

Before I get banned I would just liked to say that I agreed with your position on passports.
