Feel free to delete this at leisure, at least hear me out first 
In my opinion a certain level of Banter is required to make this site a 'funny' place to frequent. Without said Banter Off Day would be pretty poor and boring.
There are two types of members on CS. Those that join in with the frolics and don't mind a few insults here and there, and those that oppose all Banter and throw their toys out their big prams when they get upset. The latter in my opinion only serve to drag CS down and make it dull.
These are the ones that should be banned.
Myself and James, I admit, have made a few threads recently but we certainly haven't filled Off Day with crap. We have kept it all in one place (mostly  ) and have been sensible about it. This is to be expected on any forum to be honest.
So to sum up, don't hate the Banter, hate those that hate the Banter
That is all.

The thing is though. You try to hard. You aren't very funny. Being offensive to people and generally being a keyboard warrior isn't even banter.

And by insults I mean telling James to STFU or telling Sooty to EMA.
Both will be replied by either a  or a return insult.
These member we need to keep.

What really pisses me off is anti banter people who use the fullstop key on 6-7 word sentances, these are the folk that should be lined up and shot

that's fair enough, but if I had access to the Trash Can and it's contents I could show you dozens of 10+ page threads where many members have contributed to the banter

I hardly call a post saying "wooooooooot wooooooooot" banter,
If you do, then you must be easily entertained!

In order to consider some things I say 'funny' you yourself need to have a sense of humour.
Must be terrible

Creating a "banter" thread just doesn't cut it.
The banter has to flow from within.

I dont see any harm in it really.
I can see a problem with it when people end up getting insulted, but the thread which was moved didnt insult anyone (unless i missed it )
Just trying to lighten an otheriwse dull day/week/life tbh
