I always wonder if the element of humour tends to become blurred between the different nations involved in this forum. Even for the English (there is one of us who can converse in English properly) speaking nations, there are differences of what can be classed as tolerable and banter and that which becomes offensive or inflammatory. In these days of political correctness and indoctrination, humour is all too easily misinterpreted and offence taken. I have seen several examples on here of where the translation or interpretation has appeared to be unacceptable. Humour is a difficult element of human nature that does not necessarily translate very well, and as such can lead to misunderstandings from both parties.
