    Hi Welcome to the Internet. I realise you may of been 10 years too late to the rest of us but the term slaps is not considered as an act of physical violence on a person, but instead to tell people to cop the fuk on or your liable to be banned.

    This explains it a little better.

    How does playing soccer improve your ability to not get slapped.

    You started a thread with a title that was bound to attract trolls.
    What did you expect?
    Everyone to come onto the thread and congratulate you for calling Gaelic football "bogball"?
    And then you get upset when a mod locks it.
    Jackass.

    Oh dear. Well if he slaps you, you just slap him right back. Though in fairness, I think he should be commended for making the long journey from America to Ireland to give naughty users slaps.

    I remember there was a similar thread a while back with someone whinging because they took a moderator's threat of a bitchslapping literally. I tried searching for it, but the likelihood that they spelt "moderator" incorrectly makes it difficult.

    metaphor: n 1. a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to something to which it is not literally applicable (e.g. food for thought).
    2. a thing symbolic of something else.
    [Greek > metapherein "to transfer"]

    Your ability to detect and appreciate irony is only matched by your ability to post common sense.

    On review, you will find that the answer to that question, is infact, yes.

    Eh...Mods. When you're finished with the "Sword of Damocles" can I have a loan of it? I need to fight a level 18 monster in the Cave of Despair :D

    I think we've got another Matt Holck in this one...

    In fairness, this could be seen as a threat to those who have a USB powered slapping machine that the mod can hack into over the interweb.
