A SCOTTISH karaoke bar has issued a warning to punters about their behaviour after admitting some "just won't listen"...
City centre karaoke bar Cosmopol made a statement in relation to customers queueing and waiting to perform, urging them to "be kind".
They said that they "don't like doing this but unfortunately some people just won't listen".
A statement read: "All we do is the best karaoke in town. The queue gets longer as we get busier. With a full house that's a whole lot of four-minute songs to get through.
"We work our wee socks off to get your song ... please be kind, let the presenter get on with the entertainment, they're not there to pitch wits or debate queue position. There's no queue jumps here!"
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
