For Dudley...now Richo has departed...

[BarryGrogan]

Can we say The Cho now?

No mate it's still.disgusting so unless you're under 12 try to control yourself.

What's disgusting about it?

Why don’t you just google it? Then you won’t need to ask.

I just did.

Found nothing even remotely offensive.

I can see a ban coming up.

...can you please remove your avatar pic of Alan.

I can't wait to find out who the next avatar is.

Is it just me, or does anyone else find it kinda creepy that this guy continually calls Cho “Alan”?

Like, “hi Alan, I know it’s been a tough day today, can I drive you home? I have some boiled sweeities in the car. Come on Alan, the car’s just over there in the car park, what do you say Alan?...”

It’s really kinda icky...

I still find it creepy that the whole issue about calling him"The Cho" got down to one or two posters actually knowing this obscure term and taking offence to it, based on them thinking it as a common term that everybody knew - says more about their porn habits than it does about our collective disrespect

I've run this by countless people, asking them if they're familiar with the term "Cho" or "The Cho" in a sexual context, even the young hip slang talkers n the shop floor - Nope, no one's ever heard of it

that this escalated into a bannable offense on this forum was as nuts as it was absurd

<1 week ban for deliberate use of a banned term - and if you read the ruling the reason it is banned (whilst CHO is not - is because the poster who started using it the banned term - used it at a time where he was also posting other pornographic and sexual accusations at the coach and players ... so the actual intent was there and the term used was no accident>

Im trying to think back to some of The_Dud alumni...

I think there was Goddard early on (I turned his career around) Raph Clarke, maybe Dawson, Brad Hodge, maybe a Marsh brother...

Is that Steven Baker in your new avatar?

Agree - the term was incredibly obscure in the first place and only backed up by some American website that none of us had ever heard of and would never normally use for reference.

It offends anyone who doesn't have a mate nicknamed Cho...or feel left out when 12 year olds are laughing at Urban Dictionary.

[degruch]

Can we say <edited by mods> Cho now?

<No! And if it is used the ban applies>

f****** give it a rest Simon.

The poster that ORIGINALLY used that term to reference our coach did so amongst other porn / smut filled posts referencing the coach and players. The original usage of that term was deliberately done and highly offensive. Others may have used it innocently or cheekily, but there is ZERO doubt that the original usuage was porn / smut inspired.

End of subject.

It is a porn term.

Use it and face some sort of ban - a day, a week or permanent.

[HardSaint]

wow - while we discussing the actual extent of its use as a porn term

lost on pretty much all of us

not being so up on porn as some of us seem to be

Sorry but what a lot of crap

in the Urban dictionary the definition of "Cho" is to lose ones state of mind; to go ballistic; to go postal

To exclusively say it's a porn term first and foremost is absolutely wrong and then for you to dictate to us these terms that it has one meaning is truly laughable

Cho can be used as a scientific acronym, a nickname, and a term or word that might have several different meanings according to several different 15 year old kids scattered across the globe with access to the interwebs

Stop trying to pigeonhole it and force your tunnelvision idea of what it means on us

The CHO is dead long live the CHO!

<1 week ban for use of a banned term - please note CHO is permissable - the banned term is not CHO>

[vacuous space]

As far as my latest google search went, the term in question:

is an independent, self-regulated trade body that exists to represent your interests, and the interests of all the credit hire companies (CHCs) that work tirelessly, providing intervention and direct hire services to give customers back their mobility after road traffic accidents.

Woo. Is it getting hot in here, or what?

[Devilhead]

Cho also has meanings in many different languages including being a Korean surname but apparently due to one idiotic poster and a administrator wont let it go Cho on this site has only one significant definition

Stupid thing is the original.CHO post is dead and buried deep within the bowels of Saintsational may even be deleted - a lot on here would not have seen it (incl me) and would have no idea it existed yet there is one poster that continually refers to it giving it legs

Likely 95% of posters on here use CHO as a fun nickname for Alan clear of any hidden porn meaning or any other meaning for that matter

Had said original.post been deleted and never been referred to again most of us would know no better

No different from pouring petrol on a fire

[HardSaint]

all i get when googling is Margaret Cho



Margaret Cho was a phone sex operator at age 15

[tedtheodorelogan2018]

It's a pretty well known sexual term amongst kids and young adults. I've heard male Saints supporters use it at Marvel on more than one occasion.

[The Fireman]

Ted has heard it people.....must be banned.... bizarro world.

[tedtheodorelogan2018]

Not up to me.
Mod made it clear it's not to be used. Accept it or depart. Simple decision to make.

Oooh, I'm in with the tough kids, I'm gonna act like a hard man and tell you how it is....

I reckon I'm going to start referri g to you as another old coach, Rodney EAD

[The_Dud]

Free speech?

[saintsRrising]

Ted has heard it people.....must be banned.... bizarro world.

Ted enforcing the rules. So busy at it that he is missing all his normal SCOOPS this week..

MIA on Richo going and now on Hannas being put on the indefinite list.

We are being denied all the INSIDE news

that this escalated into a bannable offense on this forum was as nuts as it was absurd

What it was was 2-3 forumites dug themselves into a hole banging on about how they were super loyal supporters and the rest were disgusting for the personal attacks on Richo.

When it came to evidence, this little gem was brought up as means for them to justify their frequent attacks on forumites

When asked to give just one example of how that term was used to attack/demean the coach in anyway, they all frequently and consistently ignored the question.

Most everyone saw it for what it was... a smokescreen to justify bad behaviour

[satchmo]

Yes, it's enough to make you continuously refer to another poster as "corfe", apparently.

[tedtheodorelogan2018]

Joffa Corfe is that mad Pies supporter.

The art of telling some one to f**k off thinly veiled behind a reference of a famous historic ruin in Dorset

I’m not sure about the forum rules, but are you allowed to repeatedly tell a poster to f**k off?
