Guest LukeJLFC Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Before I start (again) just to shed light on the comment thread, I originally put something that was awfully vague and prompted an argument based off assumptions due to the lack of information I provided. ^ old Team has disbanded due to COVID-19.

Guest DrAlexanderTobacco Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Nah, I just remember EvilMonkee being annoyed the last time this chap posted a team thread. Apologies to EvilMonkee if I've misunderstood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah no drama, just I’ve made about 3 different posts for the same thing, but group focus keeps changing and I can’t be arsed describing what the group is for in another post, so the people interested can PM me and I’ll tell them there. i don’t know what the first guy’s problem is, maybe he’s got something against recruitment posts idk?? Strange either way 😂😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitmanNo2 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 The way it comes across to me is OP is seemingly trying to project a very hush, hush, "you know if you know" kind of mystique around his group as if he's recruiting for some actual military/government agency that is so secretive, it doesn't state what it's all about in the job description. Now, if this is how he wants to go about matters, that's fine, it just comes across a bit walty imo. Just update an existing post. No need for new threads with zero new information. OK, "things have changed", state the changes. You can't be arsed to type it out but you're going to have to anyway if someone PMs you. I'm sure you're probably missing out on possible new recruits due to your unnecessarily secret post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure you're probably missing out on possible new recruits due to your unnecessarily secret post. I’m sorry, but this has to be a troll. there is no way you called me a Walter Mitty for making a new post basically saying PM me if the title interests you. Also due to some weird an unnecessary controversy regarding the explanation of the group the last time I made a post, I decided to save it this time around and only explain what’s going on to people in the area who want to talk and get things going. There’s no intention to make the post ‘secretive’ and ‘iykyk’ your over analysing it, so from that there is two ways I’m looking at your reply. 1. you have way to much time on your hands and trolling, in that case well played. 2. you are genuinely stupid and looking to slander the name myself/the group for making a post without giving an explanation. Also nothing really secretive about it, it wouldn’t really be a secret if I openly said “PM me if your interested”... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s slander if spoken, publishing false statements would be defamation. Stating an opinion is neither, claiming something false that damages reputation is slander or defamation depending on the medium.

Supporters Adolf Hamster Posted July 31, 2020 Supporters Share Posted July 31, 2020 that escalated quickly not that i'm taking sides, but hitman does have a point about being mysterious, when i first read it the impression i got was that there had been issues with this topic/team before hence my nosey probing into what that meant (lockdown has made a very bored hamster). problem is, if that's the impression people are getting, then surely that's counterproductive to recruitment? how do people know if they want to ask with very little information to go on?

hitmanNo2 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 All you had to say was "yeah, I guess not posting more information could be a bit counterproductive to my recruitment drive" But no, you had to be a colossal bellend and derail your own thread. Maybe in a few months when you try again, you'll behave more like an adult and not a petulant child flinging insults left, right and centre.

Yeah after seeing the first few comments causing confusion I was going to type it out to shed light on the people that didn’t recognise the name after my shift. however hitman did leave a rather patronising message for quite a simple mistake. hence the replies. i agree this had completely spiralled out of control however I don’t feel that Im all at fault here, Just because of lack of information on a post doesnt mean I should be accused of being a Walter Mitty. Possibly a new post without the dickhead at the start who tried to shoot down the last recruitment post I did could be a good alternative. 8 minutes ago, hitmanNo2 said: All you had to say was "yeah, I guess not posting more information could be a bit counterproductive to my recruitment drive" But no, you had to be a colossal bellend and derail your own thread.

Well maybe... you shouldn’t assume I am commuting a very real crime which is stolen valour based on no real evidence and assumption. due to the confusion the original post made I am going to repost this with a proper description. And I ask politely this time that you don’t comment on it. but only time will tell on whether you do or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I've just got back from work and on my PC now so im gonna jump on and change it up. Looking at it now, its very confusing to some people who never saw the last post, very idiotic/lazy on my part. Also that picture is just a reference picture for what the team is aiming for, now i realize that even after the long chain of comments its still not clear. Im going to update it all now, thanks for being level headed on the situation. Hopefully it will all drop and we will get some new people who are interested in joining what we love!

There is no such offence of ‘stolen valour in the UK nor of walting. Fraud legislation would deal with fraudulent use of uniforms, medals and a false history. The nearest thing to ‘stolen valour’ would be the Uniforms Act if wearing the uniform in ‘contempt’ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
