Then again, if your are connected to the internet, you are capable of watching BBC news live.

AAARRRRGGGGHHHHH. I don't fickin know.........

yes but your ok youve got a licrence

[feeutfo]

Well this is it ticking along nicely isn't it.

Geoffrey, your not doing yourself any favours mate, tbh.

If its implied you watching tv without paying the license, you can't really be surprised if your pulled up on it now, can you.

[Lizzie_Zoom]

Ok Geoffrey although you are not prepared to give me any answers to my questions, for the good of the Forum I will say "Sorry" for stating you were a criminal.  Your postings suggested what I have explained they did, but obviously you are playing some kind of game.

Too mature to go along with such games and insults from you which have been going on for some time now, even spilling into another thread with highly offensive remarks, which I also expect a "Sorry" for.

However, if you are prepared to say sorry so will I apologize to you. Fair enough??

To clarify you don't need TV license to watch VOD content on iPlayer, you only need to have it if you watch a program live at broadcast time.

yep thats what ive been saying

[ozzycat]

............and before you answer Geof this is exactly what you posted:

Surprise surprise I thought you might disagree. I'm beginning to think you're some sort of left wing puppet tbh, going by your posts in other threads. The world is full of people, organisations and so on who want to control others. The BBC should be impartial, otherwise it's unfair to those who have a different viewpoint but still pay tv tax.

Of course I watch television, how could I comment on it without knowing about it? That's a silly thing to say isn't it. I just don't pay the tv tax! 

?

And? I watch tv now and again. I don't pay tv tax. I'm still well within the law though and not doing anything wrong, whatever your legal or political outlook.

yes you are if you watch tv evan if it only now and again its illeagle your breaking the law it dosent matter wich way you put it there are no exeptions to this rule ask everybody who watches ty leagaly

[STMO123]

Chill pill time, Ozzy.

[ozzycat]

Chill pill time, Ozzy.

okey dokey STMO sorry get abit  well you know what i mean
my apologys to every body

[Entwood]

Probably find "geoffr70" actually lives and works in a "communal" area .. so his TV licence is paid under contractual rules ...or some such technical reason .... but why he's choosing to play games and not actually state his reasons is a tad childish IMHO - especially given his comments in another thread.

OOF does not need (or want ?) this pettiness IMHO.... we're "supposed" to be adults, this does absolutely nothing to generate good will and just ends up in petty point scoring.

[ozzycat]

fair enough entwood i get a bit wound up somtimes especialy when i get bad results from the hospital so i was upset to start with i know its no excuse for loosing your rag so i apologise for it  ill take stmos advice and take a chill pill and ive got some beuties

[geoffr70]

Who's playing games

Watching or recording tv signals in a place where would be liable to ensure the said premises are covered by a license isn't the default way to watch tv. Many people assumed it is, wrongly, and are then quick to publicly judge and brand people as criminals

I didn't intend to, and haven't misled anyone. I'm certainly not playing games thanks Entwood  . As said there is no default way to watch tv, but I could see where the thread was going, certain OOF regulars, and others who aren't in the clique so much, whose posts look like they can't string a sentence together, perpetuating mis information and falsehoods, without stopping to ascertain the full circumstances or what the actual rules regarding the situation are!

Well at approximately half the age of a lot of you, I'm glad to say I have an open mind, to my benefit. I'm not pompous or pedantic like I observe many to be on here. It's not just me who's noticed either, I've received communication from numerous other members about this.

Entwood states that OOF does not need or want pettiness, what pettiness? I could say that OOF does not need your pompousness and pedantic posts to people, of which there are many. But everyone's different.

Lizzie brands me a criminal after assuming wrongly. All I can say is don't join the police or legal system. When I was a policeman, I worked with a whole range of police forces in this country and right around the world, I had the decency to get the facts before taking action that could potentially blacken someone's name.

Did anyone see Emmerdale tonight? It was a right corker!!!!   

[geoffr70]

I'm sorry Lizzie if you thought I was insulting you, I have a crack right across my iPhone screen right where the pictures are so I can't see them very well. I'd fix it but I'm saving for a tv license!!

[geoffr70]

'Geoffrey'

Who are you? My dad?

As said, I watch tv, I don't pay tv tax. I'm within the law. I'm doing nothing wrong. As said, too many assume, get it wrong, and are then quick to judge.

[ozzycat]

first i say sorry to stmo and entwood
geof why dont you grow up and stop trying to get one up on everybody  if you say your half my age that must mean your still at school and naughty boys should be in bed if you watched emerdale tonight then that counts as a confesion to watch ing tv with out a licence which if you cant get intio your head is a criminal offence or do you still live with mummy & daddy so grow up and realise when people are thaking the piss t
 this is my last worg on this subject so rant on if you want i aint gotherd nite nite
