I do, Scott.
I'm not trying to act like I'm an angel myself - I have fcuk all to say about cycling, so I compensate with chitchat. I like a good joke, even a rude joke, but I know when it's too much. I don't accept serious racist/homophobic/xenophobic comments (I assume that we all can feel if someone's joking or not) without even a tint of sarcasm or irony. I agree that we all can have different sensitivity, some people are also more serious than others and that was the reason I apologised to you - I realised that you don't appreciate shallow silliness and I wanted to respect that.
I think that the main problem with the internet forums is that it's not the same as direct contact where we can see others expressions and pick up the tone of their voice.
