How come when I put in Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira's nickname on a thread, "***", it became ***? Is that a curse or something? I've never heard of it. N O G , wtf?
 
In my country, it means, 'a person/persons that likes to varnish the shoes of a yellow man'. I find it unacceptable language, and have sent Niall a PM requesting a ban.

It was only a question. I have never heard of that. That is why I asked. For feck sake.

That must be a regional thing. I always thought it meant 'someone who likes to felch midgets'.

Well maybe you should do some research before you go around insulting people. Varnishing shoes, that's bad, and of a yellow man? That's even worse.

Do you have any idea of how insulting that phrase is?

What are you talking about? I never called anybody anything, just asked a simple question. If I had to research every single question that I ever ask then I'd spend my whole life on the Intenet.

What about ***, always useful when talking about Smith, Fletcher and co?
 
You can't say D I S either. It comes out as ***.

Now I know that M U Q is banned because it's a crap abbreviation that people use on United boards when discussing players, but what the hell harm is D I S?
 
Sorry, didn't mean it. I had to type it to teach the thread author a lesson thoughh.
