Is there any wonder lots of previously aired comedy shows have now been banned from television. Not quite following the PC line.
There are people dying and an innocuous thread has so many negative viewpoints.
You talk of written context without maybe understanding the personality of woody:
I mentioned ‘dude’ earlier as I wasn’t sure if the recipient was male or female and got a sharp response for that.
Thank goodness it’s Monday and back to trading topics.
Enjoy the week
By past comparisons, yes, Woody's comments do 'seem' innocuous.
But look at the some of the comments that immediately followed. Not tackling this in the bud emboldens others to think it is alright to make comments in a similar vein. It isn't.
BTW I was one of those who asked for Woody to have another chance last time - see, context again.
Enough said. You are either going to agree or you are not.
At the end of the day, this is a BB about Synairgen related stuff, not an outlet for one's personal frustrations or fantasies.
This week brings us closer to anticipated news. So GLA.
well said andy, i quite agree, and look forward to the time we recognise that women are equally selfish and exploitative and flawed, given the opportunity. human beings are just very ****ty, very few ever deal with their own ****, let alone anyone else's.
context is a weapon of mass destruction and woody ain't so bad

Ndn71 as other people have tried to explain there is relevant context to this.
A few months back the individual you are supporting was crassly inappropriate on a regular basis with sexualised references permeating many of his posts. Some investors who happened to be women were deeply offended and yet said behaviour continued and if anything became more overtly demeaning.
Similarly a number of male posters offered their support for offensive posts again seeing nothing wrong and ridiculing folk for calling it out.
Said individual seemed to have realisation that he was causing considerable offence. He apologised profusely and was apparently going to voluntarily remove himself until he got to grips with what he himself now recognised to be crude and offensive.
So context is important. Said offensive behaviour albeit very low key has started to creep in again. This coincides with some who do not understand or want to understand this is exactly how it escalated last time with this individual emboldened and playing to his fans.
So yes in terms of context I think what people have historically found acceptable has evolved over the years. It took a couple of hundred years after Shakespeare for slavery in the UK to be abolished as for hundreds of years people presumably didn’t see much of an issue and then maybe around another hundred years for women in the UK not to be legally classified as property.
The full picture allows things to be seen in context, this isn’t an attempt at virtue signalling or getting offended at ‘banter’ this is just trying to be decent and allow others to contribute here without being demeaned.
Apologies for the terrible grammar. Autocorrect. Its not it’s. Are not is etc etc.
There really is some fragile folk on this board!
I worry so fragile that if SNG fails it’s trials we might see some people jumping off the nearest bridge. Anyway, another week looms and announcement(s) getting ever closer!
Let's all forgive each other and move on

Smooches and jammy smears all over your ears
Ndn7
You and everyone else should realise that there is absolutely no need to objectify woman by making comparisons of this kind in a chat room. It is absolutely offensive, completely unnecessary and he should stop doing it.
We shall have a think

Many months ago Woody made a promise regarding his conduct and analogies.
It seems his word may not be worth much in this regard.
There is no need on a share platform discussion board for comparisons of this kind.
I hope he will rethink the promise he made to stop doing this
Look, here is my last comment on this topic. As one of the ones who was here last time this kicked off, there is a lot to be offended about. I find it sad that me, and one or two others are saying this and yet many on here think that just because they aren't offended then there can't be anything wrong. I find this very troubling. If someone said to me 'I find what you are saying offensive' then I would sure as anything stop doing it. If I had some decency, then I may even apologise for it. I certainly wouldn't say 'you are outraged over nothing and the offensive comments are rather charming'. What the hell is wrong with some of you?
I'm going away now to sleep on this. It bothers me that on a scientific stock investment board some people are so happy to be offensive. You are as bad as some of the anti vax loons.
Can't see anything wrong with Woody's comments, I find them funny and somewhat charming myself. Lot of thought policing and outrage over nothing.
Ndn71, I tried to explain, but you are not listening.
I have received an emissary from the Women; they say Woody is alright

I can only assume you weren't here last time he did this ndn71? It's not particularly what he's said this time, but more the echos of previous behaviour.
Doc Not the time or place.
I have more to concern myself with, than an old bloke who feels compelled to share his obsessive unrequited sexual fantasies on a Investors public bulletin board. This not a male only old duffers private members club. Goodnight.
In the meantime, he seems to have picked up a few more apologists. It was offensive then and it is now.
Doc, you've been here a long time just as I have. Do you not remember the fallout from last time Woodstock did his creepy Swiss Toni thing? Didn't he promise to go away and mend his ways. He did for a while and then came back and appeared 'normal'. He is however regressing it appears.
A creepy clown you wouldn’t want in the same postal district as any female family or friends.
As for the moronic supporters congratulations on promoting your pal, birds of a feather flock together as they say.
Sigh.
Even the word 'beautiful' is loaded and toxic. In certain contexts. I don't want to say anymore tonight. So I hope I can leave it there. But I do wish everyone a beautiful day tomorrow.
AJ316- You'll soon realise that the crazies have control of the board, from 17:00 Friday until the grownups come back 07:00 Monday.
Got excited when I seen so many comments today as it’s a lot for a Sunday. I thought maybe it might be some news posted I didn’t even have to scroll down for more then 1 minute to learn it’s a bunch of bickering sh*t talking clogging up the board again
Nice one woody...
Andym123. I have actually been invested in Synairgen since February 13th 2020 at 16p when we were lucky to have 4 posts a day. I have seen many come and go.
Regards
What do you mean 'if I'm a dude'. Does it make a difference? Jesus, what century do you live in?
