Language is always interesting.

I had no idea ponce had anything to do with working girls or their earnings. Only ever heard it used in a homophobic way or at the very least to point someone out who was particularly camp.

Clearly varies by where you reside/grew up though by the look of it.

What’s wrong with that? Worse references are made constantly on that board.
I've been around a few years and have only ever heard the word ponce as referring to scrounging something or as a pimp.
Never heard it as a homophobic reference
I’ve heard it in the context of someone who is a bit flashed up, a bit of a dandy, a bit lah-de-dah. If I heard it I wouldn’t necessarily go straight to it being a venomous homophobic insult.

A Ponce meant a flash git when I was growing up, and agree that 'to Ponce something' was scrounging.

Poncy means pretentious. I don't think it is homophobic.

Ponce was just a synonym for poof where I grew up. Should it be a ban worthy word, probably not, but I found bimboman an incredibly tedious poster with a special knack for derailing otherwise interesting threads. I suspect that opinion is shared by some of the mods.

It was always a gay slur in the Valleys when I grew up.
Btw Hong Kong told the twat when he used it before it was unnacceptable.
No idea why the bwoman was banned and I don't care.
If he stinks here up he will be gone as well apparently.
I hope the recidivist chills out and uses words more carefully.

Actually most people relate it to pimping or living off others and by most I mean everyone bar you, calculus and “the valleys “ .

Threatening other posters like you’ve done here btw is amazing, and a new low even by your slug like standards.

You may wish to reconsider your concept of ‘everyone’...

and editing a post specifically to include a personal slur and attack as you have here illustrates your persona perfectly. You thought twice and came back to insult and incite.

Just imagine a scenario where a poster used a word like ponce as a term of abuse and was told by the mods it was unacceptable and agreed never to use the abusive term again.

Then uses it again and guess what happens :bimbo:

No idea if it was the reason for the ban btw, I suspect it was the abusive posts not just this one.
Going down the right wing conspiracy theory route usually goes a bit wrong on message bored . It doesn't help abusing mods on both bored either imho.
Try being nice is my motto, not racist, bigoted or antisemitic and respect people have different opinions.
Not calling people stupid and thick and claiming they don't understand topics helps as well.

I wish everyone a nice evening even if I don't agree with their opinions.

He's taking the piss sometimes but then sometimes he isn't. It's hard to know which is which is which. It's a riddle wrapped inside an enigma but hardcore English nationalism is what is driving it all. We had none of this unpleasantness years ago.

Bimbo deserved a ban for being a prick.

However, using the same standard, about four fifths of the bogtrotters also deserve a ban so I can understand why he's miffed.

You keep on mentioning other poster's stupidity, time after time, and related a numerous amount of them.

At one point you will have to realise that you are the utter aggressive fuckwit bigot.

And you have been just that for years.

You are like the wrong kind of don Quixote.
I'll take my ban for attacking the poster but he is just getting worst and asking for too much attention.

If Bimbo is to get canned, c69 needs to get binned as well.

Personally think they should both stay but they are pretty much identical to each other, albeit the majority seem to enjoy a pile-on Bimbo, not that he helps himself as conceding where he has got things wrong once in a while would certainly help.

Language point is interesting: I only knew of the homosexual noun and cadging verb meanings. Nonetheless, the irony of poncing a fag off someone was completely lost on me!

Far more tedious is the furore around Bimbo (in whatever guise). He can be a complete pain in the arse, but no worse than several others on here and the old board. If you don't like reading what he says, just put him on ignore. Otherwise, please could he and his stalking goaders set up there own site for their amusement.
