As someone who doesn't enjoy reading homophobic & sectarian slurs I think acorn is best without him.

I find it really odd that some endorse such behaviour.

I'd say "disturbing" rather than odd, but I certainly agree!

Alternatively, for those members that continually find his posts abusive or offensive, add to the ignore/block list. Is this not what that functionality is there for?

I respect what the likes of Admin, Rob, Edwin and/or anyone are saying, but I genuinely found some of the posts lightened the place up somewhat.

I'm not a fan of censorship. Never have been.
If I find something irritating, annoying, abusive, etc. I avoid in future.

This is why I avoid watching/reading any news, as the only news you here is bad news which mainly consists of poor goverment decisions, banks handing out £xxx,xxx bonuses for crap performance, various "celebrities" not acting professional and forgetting many of them are role models for the younger generations, individuals milking the state of various benefits they are not entitled to, yadda-yadda, just depresses me. So I avoid it.
