Ok, what ever, I red it from the planning regulations that were slapped infront of me, but have it your way, I myself like the local council were looking at bogus regulations sent by a bogus non-existent government. I'm not waisting any more time on this thread, its got out of control. If you think the planning regulations were writen by the sun I sugest you contact that tabloid for a copy. I don't think Brown has made many changes in his so far very short time in power, I'm almost 100% sure he's not bothered much with planning regulations yet, but yes, you are 100% correct if it shuts you up. Subject over? Good!
The "hoohar" during the world cup was about people plastering there houses in england flags. IT WAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE UNION JACK! Get it? THE ENGLAND FLAG AND THE UNION JACK ARE TWO DIFFERENT FLAGS. You can cover your house in as many union jacks as you like on one condition, they are not a FULL SIZE union jack displayed the correct way up, however you are aloud to hang a union jack the wrong way up as it's considered to be a silent distress signal.
That was after the world cup, I was approached during the world cup. The reason given in writing was for displaying a full sized union jack flag without permission. If you read the post correctly it wasn't over a pole, I had now flag pole... unless flag poles have suddenly started being made out of brick and strangely resembling a side of house shaped wall! I am sure things have changed since the world cup, I remember the hype, nothing changed until the world cup was over.
Your correct, you need planning for a flag pole, if its two meters high. You also need planning permission for a union jack, I had this same argument with the local council after I was presented with a summons for planning during the world cup. I had two full sized flags on my house, one was an england flag and the other a union jack. I could apply in retrospect or remove my union jack, they took the flag down to check it was full size and then had the cheek to hang it the wrong way up. I pointed it out and then told them to leave it the wrong way up as they had distressed me. I had to remove the union jack because someone (ethnic minority) had complained I did not apply for planning to hang my union jack. I think you should check planning regulation on flags and flag poles. England flag is fine, union jack is not.
Its discrimination because it apply's to the flag pole and the union jack, does not apply to any other flag.
I do read papers, not the daily mail, im not that sad. Do you read papers? there was a story about a boy suspended from school for racism after a sports teacher found he had union jack boxers on. I think you missed something there.
Ok, I got this wrong. Here is my public correction. Most road signs in slough seem to be in a different language, I can only assume this is because Slough is full of people who immigrate here because they want to be here so much they can't be arsed to learn english.
I'll let the Irish speek for themselfs.

Reason : I said two meters, im corrected, its 6ft, not that there is much in it!
There are hundreds of free MP3 and WAV to OGG converters available on the internet. Its probably quicker to find one than it is to send an mp3 and wait for an OGG to be returned. There are many that will do this directly from CD which means you dont have to convert to MP3 first. Can I remind you that "backups" of orignal CD's are still a grey area! Only your own materal and what you have writen consent for is strictly legal to copy or reproduce.
I'm not very good at getting my wheels off the ground, but I suppose the idea is to keep them on the ground anyway. Took me forever to get them as my PC seems reluctant to take screen shots.
The first one? Oh YaY. The sconds? Osh-ite!
BTW, Knoobly tyre's are a myth...

I think it was more aimed at the British people who use this forum. How would you know anything about being a British citizen? I think your wrong.
And dougie, I actually agree, the Irish seem to have this problem 10 fold. You must understand how I feel.
And if you follow this advice.... "On topic, why not start a new server "ONLY RUSSIANS IN HERE!". That outta show em" can I pretend to be Russian? You got some hot talent over there!
Yeah, no problem there, did you know you can freely display any full size flag in this country, its great. Did you also know that if you want to display a full size union jack you have to pay £135 planning permission? Is that a discrimination against the British? If I ware union jack boxers am I racist or patriotic? Our government seems to be obsessed with the idea that anything traditionally British is offensive, its not the ethnic minority that bothers me, its our government taking things too far that goes to the bone. If I was of the ethnic minority I wouldn't have to change anything to avoid offending anyone. Yes, White British I believe are starting to become oppressed by the powers above, correct me if I'm wrong.
No I'm not a member of the BNP, I'm not even racist. There may be 77% white men in wolves, however, they mainly live in the rich areas surrounding wolves. I don't take any pills unless prescribed, and all I get prescribed are pain killers. Anyway, I was just making a point. If you want to know, I lived in a black dominated neighborhood where it was acceptable for the ethnic minority to throw racial abuse at the white men. Got any statistics on why most of the road signs in slough have been changed to muslim? It takes me twice as long to read them now!
Yes and funny as it may seem, CNET is also infested, even tucows is infested. Its a true but sad fact, some idiots bogus software always seems to get a link on these sites.
Ok, my bad, I assumed (bad thing to do) that filefront was another spin off of download.com or one of the other heavily infested sites. Is that the only LFS download on filefront?
There was no point in that cheat, I have now watched the replay and really, if he was gagging to win that much why didn't he just race AI? Thankfully it looks very hard to use a tweak while racing. I think we have to work together to make these idiots feel unwelcome, I noticed in the replay there did not seem to be much effort made in banning him, am I wrong? Is he gaining a real experience or is he just cheating himself?
You should always download LFS from the main site, when you download from a third part you have no idea if the files have been tampered with. Third party sites are an easy way of obtaining viruses, trojans, spy ware and maul ware. LFS may refuse to offer you support if you have not obtained the software directly from them.
DONT GET THE ITRONICS. It takes about a month to brake them and one short walk under a raincloud it enough to send them to mp3 heaven. I have had a few different mp3 players, I get bored of them and get a new one from time to time. In my experience the iPod's have been over rated, you get a nice player but not nice enough for the money. The only mp3 player I regret changing was the creative zen, it was 8 gig which was more than big enough, I must of dropped it more than 100 times and it wasn't going to die. Another thing is the headphone jack sometimes works loose on them when you carry them in your pocket, this did not happen with the creative zen. The docking station (an optional extra) is amazingly good, very loud, does not distort and come with all cables required aswell as an infa-red remote. I was able to pack up my hifi for the zen.
Edit: I don't think a docking station is available for the zen stone, however, this unit is much smaller than that of its predecessor. I think the earlier model was a zen touch.
This is quite funny. Are you that bothered about someone not wanting Russians on a host? Its a fine line I will admit but I don't think its quite racism, I could be wrong. Its not like LFS is short of hosts, I'm sure you can find another! If the owner does not like Russians then maybe you don't want to mingle with him/her. It could be the host IS discriminate against Russians and instead of joining hosts where he risks finding Russians he would prefer to segregate himself. I wouldn't complain too loudly, people who don't agree with it simply wont join. I can understand you feel offended about it, but try to have teflon sholders, brush it off and consider yourself better than the host owner. Btw, I know what its like to feel discriminated against, I used to live in Wolverhampton (Spot the white man) and then slough (Spot the English road sign)
Every star is another sun, for every sun there is another group of planets.... logically a life form must be out there some place! One day we will find it, until then we will never know. I think too many people are influenced by sci fi books and films and there for all assume that aliens are of a specific size, have black eyes and walk on two legs. If something purple with 6 legs, 4 eyes and 9ft tall was to turn up one day, im sure we would all think it was just a freak of nature or a newly discovered species. As long as I don't get abducted and probed... I hope there is another life form. The chances are that were not alone.
