This already came up and the thread was locked. I suspect this one will be as well.

Oh whoops, I didn't see it. I should have known that this would have gone live a long time ago.

That's OK. I read the Daily Mail piece and loved the quaint British phrase "passing motion", which I had forgotten about. It sounds so parliamentary. And on that note, perhaps this one should be passed over to OMNI P/R so it can be kicked around over there.

^ I've always thought it would be a better idea to send off-topic/ousted threads to OMNI than to just lock them. Or maybe even create a new board just for threads that have been kicked off of moderated boards.

This incident is just another long list of cultural differences that Chinese people are coming to grips with when they travel abroad. Sometime ago I read an article on such differences that outside of China would be an embarrassment.

Some articles on this issue:

Isn't "passing motion" a bit redundant?

In before the third lock.

Seems that some just cannot resist indulging their scatological posting habits.
