I hadn't read the joke I posted up anywhere else (which for the sake of clarity was not violent or of an extreme racist/sexist nature) but if it's an old one and the source is automatically not acceptable then so be it. 

This is not my messageboard, I didn't set it up, I don't spend hours of my spare time running it and if people post here then they should accept the rules, which I crossed purely out of ignorance. Fair enough, I hold my hands up on that and will do my best to be more aware of the guidelines in future.
