I'm a well hung chap, hung like a bastard says i.
Presumably, 95 percent of all punters are either attached or married, which means they are cheating on their partners each time they punt. Is this is a fair scenario, and should it be mandatory that punters tell their other half what they are up to?
I know most people here aren't going to believe this, but escorts generally pay tax. I wouldn't be surprised if, like many other self-employed people in cash businesses, some of them occasionally "forget" to declare part of their income. But I don't think there is much money escaping the treasury that way. Escorts are well paid, but hardly rich. If you want to know who's not paying taxes then you might want to read this: 4,000 high earners 'paid no income tax' last year | BreakingNews.ie

“All right,” said the Cat; and this time it vanished quite slowly, beginning with the end of the tail, and ending with the grin, which remained some time after the rest of it had gone.

John Rambo only banned him temporarily. I don't think he had much choice. As I understand it, he can't edit or delete posts outside the disabled forum. So if GGB was not bluffing and really did post Lucy's full name then it would have stayed up until morning. I agree that GGB was almost certainly bluffing, but I don't think JR could take that risk.

Banning someone in a case like this for a night it's fine.
It's like a barman refusing to serve drinks to the already drunk customer.
The customer will sober up and be back when his head is clear.
What I don't get is all those troll accusations. Troll this and troll that ...
The guy was banned initially for adding a very aggressive photo in a serious topic (I won't give now details).
A little like nicegirlsarenice done once with a very controversial sex photo. Not sure now, but I think even Rover did it once.
What is a troll in fact ??? Definition on Wikipedia says:
"In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into a desired emotional response[1] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[2] In addition to the offending poster, the noun troll can also refer to the provocative message itself, as in "that was an excellent troll you posted".
If that's a troll, we are all trolls.
We all been off topic, joking, trying to provoke emotional answers from others. Even me
What we all should be looking for are consequences.
Attempting to ruin someone's business, name, reputation, privacy etc. with malicious remarks, jokes, or direct accusations? This is for me a troll. Someone who damages.
I agree that John couldn't take the risks last night, fair play to him. He was suspecting that Lucy's privacy could be at risk. But my pleading post from last night was of a different nature.
I do believe that Gordon can be also a nice bloke, others don't.
The funny thing is that most people could indeed change and try to do damaging things if they see that's the general perception on them. So I will probably live to regret my posts in this thread if he is really gone to that stage

What a fucking stupid argument.
Anyone who knows anything about taxation would simply recognise that the BUSINESS - ie the escort in this case - would merely act as a "collector of taxes". Therefore, if Gordon is willing to pay an extra 21% on top of each punt cost then I'm sure the ladies would be willing to pass that amount on to the government (anonymously of course).
Basically, the escorts pay exactly the same tax as the punter, ie VAT, income tax if they have another job, road tax if they have a car etc etc etc.
Gordon get your facts straight before you start stupid fucking threads.
So to break it down like that but what a stupid thread to start.

Yeah, I strongly suspected as well that Gordon is actually stupid enough and spiteful enough to the escorts that he is in favour of this idea because of it being "unfair" to punters or something. The reason I didn't mention it is that he doesn't mention specifically in his post that he would be in favour of it, just would it be the "fair" thing, as in terms of how almost all other trades are taxed. Considering that he does business with them and assumingly likes some of them, it would be an extemely retarded thing to be in favour of, raising his own prices and giving a fraction of escorts' income to our glorious government to piss away.
We all know the man's a troll anyway. I'm getting sick of this idea that seems to be around the air here lately that some trolling can be funny or acceptable... then you have people coming up with topics like this that they mightn't even believe in at all just to annoy people and illicit a reaction.
