Agree. I think someone was probably ranting about stuff like this decades ago......It is utterly pathetic. To allow a perfectly innocent diving signal to be highjacked by f4ckwits to then be offensive to other f4ckwits is beyond ridiculous.

Sorry for the rant, I'm just a bit sick of it.
What are we going to do about this now?
