I noticed since i have been banned from active participation in the regular forums and been branded a 'Caged Moron'. Now is it me or is that a pretty offensive name? Heres the definition of a Moron:

mo·ron ** (*P*)**Pronunciation Key**(môrn, mr-) n.
1. Psychology. A person of mild mental retardation having a mental age of from 7 to 12 years and generally having communication and social skills enabling some degree of academic or vocational education. The term belongs to a classification system no longer in use and is now considered offensive.

I guess in a world of polical correctness that this is worth reporting to the authorities/charities. Infact I will.

[Edit]
Done!

Well I didnt modify your title to that so it must be the default for people put in here I guess....... having looked back at your 30 posts it does seem quite appropriate tbh.

Please ensure any legal matters are directed to the proper email address and I will be only too glad to send you my postal address..... but please ensure that any staples are first removed from correspondence that you send as they play havok with the old shredder yah knows !

Lol .. I wonder if this thread could have something to do with my email address being added to a mailing list for a site that involves doing strange things to animals (least i assume thats what it is from the name) .... nicely flagged up by message labs and the security firm we use though .... give em somert to chase down I guess ... hope yah didnt do it from a works address if it was you Kale :)

You seem have selectively quoted the definition.


mo·ron Pronunciation Key (môrn, mr-)
n.

1. A stupid person; a dolt.
2. Psychology. A person of mild mental retardation having a mental age of from 7 to 12 years and generally having communication and social skills enabling some degree of academic or vocational education. The term belongs to a classification system no longer in use and is now considered offensive.


I like how you have still included the context with which it is considered offensive, without realising it wasn't appropriate to your post. But then what would you expect from a moron? :)
