World leaders have started to use it, I assume the pronunciation is Day shh, so now we know what to call them.

Daesh is just an anagram of shade.

Some like daesh because it further removes the islamist scum from islam.

[ummmm]

It's insulting you insinuating that anyone here is friends or supporters of Jihadists, ISIS/Daesh. You've been prevented from saying 'friends of J' but you still carry on using it.

But you already knew that and didn't really need it explaining so one can only assume you are trying to be insulting/offensive.

"Oh know....TTT has just found a new unfiltered word to insult people with! " - this is what you said ummmm, I was referring to Daesh using the new term. With your statement you attacked my usage of the word "to insult people" - how else can that be interpreted other than how I did? please explain.

it seems that in your rush to berate me you got yourself into a pickle.

It has been quite peaceful on AB in the last few days. I haven't seen any posts/answers being removed. No vitriol. All happily agreeing to differ sometimes. I actually thanked all ABers on one of my rare OPs for their input and the fact that it was amiable with no posts removed when I thought it had run it's course. Suddenly I see two answers removed today. You must draw your own conclusions why that suddenly started to occur. :-)

^You should have said, 'In your daesh, etc'. ;)

[Answerprancer]

I honestly have no idea - then again I haven't been following the thread that intently.

"Daesh is just an anagram of shade. "

And HADES
"HEADS" will roll, too (oh dear I probably shouldn't have said that ...)

[-Talbot-]

Are you ok TTT?

It is you who seems to be getting into a pickle (on a good few threads too)
You threw your new insult at Answerprancer before ummmm even entered the arena.

ps
Surely I get best answer for my Tony Abbott link?

[Answerprancer]

I think, MT, his 'insult' to me was tongue in cheek.

[ummmm]

What Talbot said...

as for name calling
sticks and stones really - but AB mods seem especially sensitive for some reason

[Answerprancer]

...or does this refer to something that was removed? (I wish they wouldn't do this, it makes everything very difficult to follow).

[Hypognosis]

This is interesting. When ummmm says "to insult people", I always assumed "people" referred specifically to other Answerbank users. Personal attacks merit deletion, IMHO.

Use of the term "friends of J" to refer to persons in the wider world, who are not here to be offended, nor 'defend' themselves (the indefensible, IMHO), was not what I expected and deletion serves no purpose except to protect the eyes of sensitive souls and kiddies.

Have you two been miscommunicating on this discrepancy for years? Hundreds of deletions?

[ummmm]

Hypo - he accuses ABers of being friends of J...terrorist sympathisers etc...

[ToraToraTora]

sorry are you lot blind, this is what umm said: "Oh know....TTT has just found a new unfiltered word to insult people with! " - I was referring to ISIS, thus "people" means them, however you spin it that sound like she is berating me for insulting Isis? please someone tell me why I'm now the villain here?

[Answerprancer]

Let me get this straight: this is all about TTT thinking you have to be on one side or the other and the 'insult' directed to me was "your mates"?

[Answerprancer]

Sorry to be so blunt but I am totally useless at subterfuge - especially when typed.

[ToraToraTora]

me too, all my posts are clear here.
