I refer to the topic entitled Dont Say Happy New Year! (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=386085&page=1&pp=15)

Kramers Intern starts of innocently enough, but with an apparant undercurrent already in the opening post. It is, imo, made to spark controversy.

Every post, almost, that Kramers has made in that one topic has been to deliberately annoy people.

I'd appreciate it if a Mod could look at it for me please :)

Thanks, AP

Hmm, it all looks like joking to me. I can't imagine really being offended at any of that, I was more amused than anything.

Aside from that, there's no direct flaming that I saw.

Ok - thanks :)

I was just unsure because he/she was of the opinon that everyone had to respect the 'poor' Chinese and Polish people (yes, I agree - we should always be PC), but then didn't seem to accept that actually, people have the right to say Happy New Year on the 1st January.

Thanks for checking though :)
