Really?You only have to google the word.
The posters using it knew exactly what they were doing.
You should be thankful that BFUSA moderates this forum.
One moron on here actually denied that the word had any sexual connotations, which it obviously did.
Obviously, someone, not me, brought the fact that our coach was being denigrated to the attention of the mods, and for that I am grateful to whoever it was.
Sadly, I'm still none the wiser.
Google came back with a Telco, some guy called Kimball Cho, the chemical abbreviation for Carbohydrate, a fashion label and an airport in Charlotte.
Someone then wrote google “the cho” which brought the urban dictionary reference the sicko Saynta then posted on this site.
It seemed the only ones who didn’t think it was the coaches name abbreviated was Teddysainter & Saynta - weird units

Personally I had never considered Cho to be anything other than an abbreviation until Ted started carrying on and accusing multiple posters of using the term and Saynta posted the filth.

"TOP DEFINITION

And that's urban dictionary for you. seriously a joke some are using it as a justification for banning a common nickname.
btw i have never found it in my search on google unless i specifically type urban dictionary before typing 'the cho'
as i said in another thread - ted what's in your search history? your google needs it's mouth washed. naughty man.
i get thecho.co.uk.
followed by
What is the Cho? - abbrev for carbohydrrate
What is a CHO in business? - chief happinness officer
Does Cho mean carbohydrate? - yes
What does Cho mean in Japanese? - butterfly
What is CHO diet? - carb based
What does Cho mean in text? - chief happinness officer
Does Japan have street names? - mostly not
then i get
thechogroup.
thecho show.
then a reference to the sixth highest mountain in the world - cho oyu.
and a comedians twitter reference who defines the cho as the chief hittin officer?
so at least i've learned a few trivia questions.
ah the offseason. such a silly time.

Re: The Flux 2018 Daft Report: Saint’s need to build up – it’s PRO & CHO time boys! So chow down!
Out of curiosity I did some googling and found what I assume is the definition certain people are getting their undies in a knot about, and my first reaction was to laugh at the absurdity of it. If that upsets you then I suggest you can’t get thru most days without being offended. And it also makes me think you haven’t been internetting for long, because that’s on the tamer end of things! Don’t even dare googling ‘blue waffle’ or ‘tub girl’ as you might not live thru it! ![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)

I CHOose to believe that this topic, the absolute stooges that have their panties in a twist over it, and the hilarity of the moderation is one of Saintsational's lowest ebbs.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have the monkey's toe so I'd best be off to the CHOdbin.

Re: The Flux 2018 Daft Report: Saint’s need to build up – <edited by mods> So chow down!
Let me propose a story for you all...
You have a friend that smokes cigarettes. You come up with a nickname for them, "Fag". Neither of you thinks a thing of it, assuming it refers to the cigarettes.
Later, a gay person tells you that when you use the word referring to someone they find it offensive and hurtful.
Do you...
A) continue to use the nickname in front of them, stating you didnt mean it that way anyway
B) apologise, stating you didn't mean it to be offensive, and stop using the nickname?
By ceasing to use the nickname, do you really stand to lose that much?

It's far more relevant and appropriate.
Or the Banger, Plugger, Goose or Horse ones.
The debate here isn't that people know the term Cho is offensive yet continue to use it - it's that it is not an offensive term at all.
The term 'fag' is actually in the dictionary and is a crude and derogatory term.
The term Cho is not, and is nothing more than an abbreviation/nickname for Richo.
Outside of some random children somewhere that uploaded their definition to Urban Dictionary, there is literally zero evidence of it even remotely being recognised as a derogatory term.
Your analogy is simply rubbish.

Long live the memory of the good ship SS, and all who sailed in her. She was a solid old tub that served many a wayfarer well in her halcyon days. As a rotting hulk in her final days she dragged down with her many a poor unsuspecting traveler as she slid down to her final unimaginable depths.

But what do you stand to lose by just stopping using the nickname? I just don't understand why it's such a big deal. If someone finds the word Cho offensive then just stop using it. No one is saying you can't criticise the coach, they're just asking you to stop calling him a particular word.rodgerfox wrote: ↑Sun 25 Nov 2018 7:29amLet's go with the BJ analogy instead.lewdogs wrote: ↑Sun 25 Nov 2018 1:34am Let me propose a story for you all...

Besides, no one finds the word offensive. Don't be so naive. This is merely some silly posters playing tit for tat and being petty for their own personal squabbles. Meanwhile, the rest of us suffer whilst this s*** goes on.

For the record, an entire forum had no issue, but have had their language modified by TWO posters.......
All done using the highly credentialed and long respected tool of "The Urban Dictionary".......something that 99>0% of people had never even heard of a week ago....

Re: The Flux 2018 Daft Report: Saint’s need to build up – <edited by mods> So chow down!
Before I move many of these posts to the admin forum, I am giving history and context for the decision here.
Earlier this year a poster was given a permanent ban for making extremely lewd sexual commentary regarding the coach and his associations with players and club officials. It was by far the most disgusting commentary posted on this OPEN forum and despite warnings and previous bans the poster continued this practice.
It was during this period the nickname "The Cho" was born. Yes 99% of people had no idea what this referenced but it was a DELIBERATE term used to try to circumvent the rules and continue making lewd sexual commentary against the coach.
It is NOT an abbreviation for Richo ... Richo is already an abbreviation for Richardson.
The definition is easily found by a google search "Meaning of The Cho". My nieces and nephews know the term and they are aged 13 to 24. It is a demeaning term to women. So perhaps people older than that are not familiar with the term, but it is a known term.
Once there was wider knowledge and understanding of what the term meant, then it falls under the same rules that it would if the actual meaning of "The Cho" was typed out in a post. And that would be either a warning or a ban ... depending on the context.
For those that want to leave Saintsational because we have respect for a person that works 60+ hours a week to build towards a premiership and is doing his best, then please feel free to leave and use the term "The Cho" as much as you like over at Big Footy.
Saintsational is not a commercial venture (it is paid for and maintained by a private contribution) and has survived for more than 20 years and multiple "walk outs". We are here to discuss footy in an environment where our team is supported and not demeaned.

Re: The Flux 2018 Daft Report: Saint’s need to build up – <edited by mods> So chow down!
My main gripe is not with the extremely long bow being drawn about an apparent insult to the coach, but that much more obviously insulting terms for players are allowed to be used at nauseum with zero reprocussions.
Just like on field, some consistency would be nice...

If unreported and and unseen - then they may have slipped through.
Also the warnings may have occurred AFTER your reading of the posts.

I’m now glad we traded Tom Hickey... who wants that around when you’re at the game with your girl
We still have Jack Steele though... that’s a adult actor’s name if ever I heard one
And I bet everyone has made a joke about Longer
Imagine the commentary... Longer, Steele... this is a nightmare

I hope you have some shame & are remorseful for your actions. Please don’t pretend you are the victim in all this. If it were such an issue discreetly PM’ing Simon would’ve been far more appropriate.
I deeply regret offending anyone, apart from those using the term. They knew exactly what they were doing and refused to stop despite being asked to do so by other posters.
This, I hold a firm view on, but Again, I must agree with you. Referring the matter to Simon would have been a better option. He would have immediately put a stop to it, as he did a day or so later.
Even though I wasn’t obliged to, as a courtesy to you, I deleted it like you asked me to. It’s not my fault you were dumb enough to quote the whole post when responding.

Obviously YES because they are the accepted nicknames for those people BY THE PEOPLE THEMSELVES. I am sure that applies to our coach accepting that nickname being bestowed on him by some disgruntled people hiding in anonymity on a fan forum.rodgerfox wrote: ↑Sun 25 Nov 2018 11:21amBJ is Ok though yeah?BackFromUSA wrote: ↑Sun 25 Nov 2018 10:43am Before I move many of these posts to the admin forum, I am giving history and context for the decision here.
Earlier this year a poster was given a permanent ban for making extremely lewd sexual commentary regarding the coach and his associations with players and club officials. It was by far the most disgusting commentary posted on this OPEN forum and despite warnings and previous bans the poster continued this practice.
It was during this period the nickname "The Cho" was born. Yes 99% of people had no idea what this referenced but it was a DELIBERATE term used to try to circumvent the rules and continue making lewd sexual commentary against the coach.
It is NOT an abbreviation for Richo ... Richo is already an abbreviation for Richardson.
The definition is easily found by a google search "Meaning of The Cho". My nieces and nephews know the term and they are aged 13 to 24. It is a demeaning term to women. So perhaps people older than that are not familiar with the term, but it is a known term.
Once there was wider knowledge and understanding of what the term meant, then it falls under the same rules that it would if the actual meaning of "The Cho" was typed out in a post. And that would be either a warning or a ban ... depending on the context.
For those that want to leave Saintsational because we have respect for a person that works 60+ hours a week to build towards a premiership and is doing his best, then please feel free to leave and use the term "The Cho" as much as you like over at Big Footy.
Saintsational is not a commercial venture (it is paid for and maintained by a private contribution) and has survived for more than 20 years and multiple "walk outs". We are here to discuss footy in an environment where our team is supported and not demeaned.

Again, all I see is Urban Dictionary which, again, is not a reference site.BackFromUSA wrote: ↑Sun 25 Nov 2018 10:43amThe definition is easily found by a google search "Meaning of The Cho".
That's a quote from the site's creator. I'd also point out that we're not even talking about a well-seen Urban Dictionary page. As of my last visit, the page has 16 likes and 17 dislikes in over a year since being posted. Most of the page views are probably people who have been indirectly directed there from here.Urban Dictionary is completely subjective. It’s not presented as fact, [but] as opinions. I think that can be a lot more valuable.
If I go further into that google search I see no more references to the term. If I refine the search to specifically make it look for, uh, adult situations, I still don't find anything other than the Urban Dictionary post. I go onto reddit, nothing. I go onto that bodybuilding forum that has no problem demeaning women at regular intervals, nothing. Nowhere on the internet other than here and a very specific page does the term mean anything offensive. The term simply does not mean anything in particular to a wider audience.
Yeah nah pleasing positive

It's hardly suprising that the same people that didn't allow videos to be posted here for years - for the reason that they were sure people would post porn (WTF?) - are the same people enforcing the urban dictionary view of the world.
So what happens now, a few posters can hijack the forum whenever they see fit to suit their personal agenda and whatever they decide determines what can be posted?
I suppose that's the history of SS anyway.
It's just a shame a few ruin it for the many.
And for the record, I don't think I've every actually posted the much discussed term myself.
