Looks like yet another banking up ckoc. Doesn't surprise me TBH, I see it every day, "management" know best, trying to cut costs. I don't know the tech cause yet but pound to pinch of tish it'll be some outsourced function without a scooby do, who are "cheap". Penny wise, pound foolish etc!

Seems pretty clear what TTT is on about. Baks have been cutting corners by sacking Western workers, particularly in IT, and outsourcing to other countries. Often thes companies hire third rate personal or a load of grads. I know this because I was heavily involved with a couple of them doing this. One I was the contract manager for outsourcing. When I...

Makes one wonder if this pair even went to school? Mama.

Great, thanks.
//if you want to read back swearing and mockney and the Editor is happy//

The editor isn't that happy - can't we just talk normally so everything isn't such a puzzle? TTT, if you want to swear, just asterisk it out, or even better, find a way to say what you mean more politely. And if you avoid rhyming slang, your thread will be about the actual subject and not about how confusing/annoying the way you asked the question is - wouldn't that be preferable?
The old Ed said the same and TTT didn't pay heed to him.
How come we are deemed unable to "understand" TTT, but are expected to decipher the non conformist warblings of "others"? I cannot be alone in making perfectly good sense of what is being said. Perhaps one poster is considered less favourably than others. Disgraceful attempts again by contributors attempting to make mischief for TTT. Confected outrage that is intended to serve a different agenda, rather than the real reason.
Some folks appear unable to post other than how they do and so are left to express themselves as they can. Others seem to intend to be obscure for the reaction, and receive poster's wrath in return.
Togo, in my case you are totally wrong.

I simply would like to see the opening question (in particular) written so a newly arrived potential AB member could understand it.

Would you put faulty good in your shop window?

As the Editor has commented, I really will leave it now.
I don't speak rhyming slang and TTT posts lots of questions using it. He ruins his own threads.

PP tends to answer questions, I skip past his answers as they rarely make sense.
Ummm - yes, I agree with both parts of your post. TTT tells us he's a member of Mensa but doesn't seem bright enough to realise he'd get more response to his posts if he wrote in English.
I quite enjoy deciphering TTTs posts, gives my brain a bit of exercise and it's not that difficult. It's the way he is and I think we should leave him to it. We don't all want to be the same and can't tell one from t'other. Well I don't anyway.
LadyB...not true. TTT has had many different names on here. It's only in the TTT name has he started to do it.
Togo is spot on at 9.37..

// Confected outrage that is intended to serve a different agenda, //

No he's not Ludwig. He does it to wind us up.
TTT that is.
In that case he's had a big fail with me.

// The editor isn't that happy //

The editor should work on getting the Site Rules changed to include a clause forbidding the use of so called mockney then. If such a rule existed, the miscreants could be legitimately tackled.

It'd be a strange thing to do though, especially as most other users don't have a problem with it (personally I find it very funny), and he/she should be encouraging greater use of the site rather than restricting it to only those people who are prepared to talk 'normally'.
Absolutely right Ludwig.
They've changed words so I can't see why they can't change mockney.
I find it a bit of fun in a not very funny world.
I'll make a liar of myself (about leaving the thread) to add this - Ummmm, you/we are wasting our time.

It's refreshing honest for some to admit they find it's funny and I accept they do , the last time I giggled at writing rude words backwards to fool Teacher (online censor in this case) I guess I'd be about twelve.
