Wouldn't it be against the BBC rules for you to be him and have a username 'Foot-Loose'?

No. It would be against the BBC rules for Aled to do so as he is a BBC employee. From what I understand, Chris is an independent contractor. He is not a direct BBC employee. Therefore he could be Footsy -- but he's not.

I think he is still governed by the same rules and codes of conduct as he is affiliated to the BBC. I have no basis for that suposition but it seems to make sense.

But why can he be ldslad21 on Xbox COD then?

Shit what have I done.


*PS I made that Tag up, if it is Chris, then this is purely co-incidental, and also just a little bit spooky.

As usual, Andy, you're wrong. Silly boy. He (and I believe Dave) are independent contractors. He's said before that he could come on and be anybody he wanted to. I'm almost positive of it. Whereas Aled couldn't and Rachel couldn't because they are direct BBC employees. Am I the only one that pays attention?

I know they are contractors but I just figures he'd be bound by the same general rules. There are loads of BBC procedures he has to follow.

I think the guidelines do cover him in situations where he is representing The Chris Moyles Show or the BBC - so in truth, if he came in here, he would probably be breaking the rules if he was "hidden". But that doesn't mean he can't be anonymous on unrelated forums or in a game or something. If thats wrong, blame the person who told me.

I keep reading this as 'No more hangovers'.
If only it were true!

I hope so... but seeing as we're near the end of October, I think not.

She's not even had the baby yet. It's a few days late according to Sara this morning.

See, just when I start to think that you are a reasonable, intelligent and decent person Topher, you reveal yourself to be an idiot!

Start? * cheek.

I've never been a reasonable, intelligent or decent person. I was talking about Jo Whiley last night actually, he likes her too. But his wife grew up with her, so perhaps he's biased.

Are you aware that:
  • 'I am' is not all one word?
  • Sentences do not end with a comma?
  • 'Anyway' is all one word and the last part is 'way', not 'why'?

Because if not, you * should be.

...and what the hell is 'SRY'?
