Dunno about you, but it made me laugh.
I rather found the pic that Rodrigo put up even more amusing. Almost epic amounts of hilarity in fact.

He was banned because he was vile. Don't get me wrong, some members, myself included, are hard to like, but we say what we see, we're not in life to be popular. 'Senna' is/was no different, but he didn't stop at being insulting and petty like I do - he was childish, ignorant and staggeringly immature for someone apparently in their mid-20s. You expect the odd 16 year old kid to come along and make a silly comment, laugh at them and carry on - we all had that spell on forums. But those heading towards their 30s are supposed to lead by example, have a bit of a laugh (at others and themselves too), and just go through it all. Brnco may be epically stupid to us, and as such be the constant butt of jokes, but you can push him and he won't crack, he'll just keep doing the same old thing, we'll all keep laughing at him and the cycle will continue until he gets bored and dies. 'Senna' (or should that be #27271, his new member number?) will just keep lobbing insults back at you, insulting your intelligence for daring to disagree with his staggeringly patriotic views.
I don't mind ignorant members. I don't mind patriotic members. I don't mind idiotic members. I don't even mind a combination of all 3, but all 3 of those combined with massive degrees of ego and temper is a new type of vile. That Dkjoe (or whatever it's meant to be - code for raging goatse fanboy probably) bloke is only about half as annoying, and he's bordering on Guantanamo-Bay-illegal homophobia - that's how much I dislike '#27271'.

Neil Pearson. Dave Ellis. Richard Dickson. Myself. And probably hundreds more in the GPx sections I never visit all provoke. If you take it as offensive then fair enough, it could be a bit hurtful until you know what we're about, but who seriously reads a post by us and thinks "@#$%&, I need to beat this guy into the ground or I'll never be able to show my face in public again"? 1st off, forums are a discussion (aka argument) medium - that's the basis of forums before the internet word had ever been uttered. 2nd, some people just know more than you do (or sometimes think they do), and so go about life in an arrogant kind of way - again I'm one of them. 3rd, why should 'Bruninho' have anything to do with this? He's been banned. Is that because he was a victim? You're sat on a European-dominated forum. If you come along in your Latin-American ways and proceed to try to tell us how to go about things you're going to get shot down - it's not our fault he doesn't fit in and can't accept that. We don't wander into Southern American forums telling them to be less passionate about their drivers and that their wives should all have wax strips liberally stuck on their nether-regions. It's a different culture - if you want to fit in you have to put the effort in - we can't all adapt to suit your wishes. For instance, Rodrigo is just accepted here. I've never really looked at his posts and thought "what a cunt". He just gets on with posting in a manner that is normal to the majority here. Some of his views may be different (none really spring to mind) but he generally doesn't go around twatting you if you disagree with them (that Senna rant excluded). #27271 will. Don't even dare to suggest that you might have information about his home track that he might not or he will hunt you down - only after he's bored you to death with repeated paragraphs of lies though.
Idiots are fun, but there's only so much of one you can tolerate before they start getting on your tits, and frankly my nipples are raw.
