I'lll third this award... 8)
Biggest wanker: Spoffin.
I won the award by the way.
Seriously though, I don't really like this, and I don't think I did anything to directly provoke this (although I assume there are some reasons they don't like me).
Now why is this not considered flaming but out-and-out calling me a wanker would be?
(please, don't accuse me of whining, I just want a reasonable amount of evenhandedness or a reason why this is different)

Ok. So you've got an award you don't want.
Just live with it and change your habits for posting.
(and hang the award on your wall, is what you should do with it.)
Congrats are in order. :lol:
Don't let them get to you. It may be antagonistic, especially in some other context, but the way to beat them is to smile and keep your eye on your goals, whatever they may be. Often this type of attitude is shown by those who cannot get what they want. They Flame or spam or whatever...
Smile report them and move on.

Its not the award, its the flaming. Believe it or not, I'm not that fond of being called a wanker.

Well, if they're allowed to say this, I'm going to post a big list of all the people I think are wankers (it'll just be the ones that nominated me, but still).
Its only fair. :D

i was going to ask what a wanker is (it's not in my dictionary), but i think i just changed my mind..

British insult.
The literal meaning is a masterbater, but thats only in the same way that "bastard" means an illegitamate child.

Well, I suppose you could ask him to take those posts of his down. I'll have to find out for sure.. because I'm not 100% sure if it counts as flaming.. I would think so.. but I've been wrong before. However, if it does, I could delete them. I'll check and see. I'll try to get back to you ASAP.
{Edit} Ok this does appear to be flaming and if not flaming then for sure flamebait. I will delete the wanker posts{/Edit}
