Why should I? You're the one that should apologise

Yeah, why the hell should I apologise for YOUR cock-up?

And I still need to know how to see BBC World, so I can make a fair comparison.

No, you spelt "that" perfectly.

Why are these message boards full of pedants? I rarely post here for that very reason: that I am likely to be criticised for making even the smallest typographical error.

Do you miss the humour in Mr Harvey's above comment?

I could be pedantic about your grammar and sentence structure there, but I won't because you have failed to realise any level of sarcasm or humour in Nick's post.

I don't see what was wrong with the old thread myself.

Fair enough - it was intended as sarcasm. It would really help though, for the unintiated like myself, if you could, when using sarcasm, include the (sarcasm) and (/sarcasm) tags. Would make life a lot easier. But we digress...

Erm, to be honest, they aren't actually part of BBCode. They are often used when members want to use even more sarcasm, not to help out slightly more demented members of our community.
