Now we are fortunate it doesnt really cross the sea politics wise, but if thats the effect its had locally its bound to be damaging to the rest of the club.

The stock answer from the mods seems to be.... if you don't like it, see ya.
A couple of points to consider. 1. Some people are offering constructive comment to make the club better....why are they being "invited" (with ever increasing regularity) to leave? 2. Some of the ordinary members have been here a lot longer than mods.... why should they just shuffle off, stage right, because the running of the forums has been called into question and they have a point to make???? They could have left at any time when it got on their nerves, or they felt patronised in a way that would never be allowed professionally..... but they didn't. It can be made better, the forums can calm down.... why not try and help that process. There's no need to take it all personally.... no one's gonna come down hard and ban you. Maybe listening might work. At the end of the day.... I like and use the site. I'm not that fussed about the social side. But there are people who are the polar opposite of me.... there are 10,000+ members of the club.... what if they all decided "Nah... *** this"? Adults with a common interest talking, exchanging opinions, arguing, falling out, making up and agreeing again.... why does that offend so many here? Fact is, it doesn't, really. But, it involves a lot of deleting and thread closing for no good reason The info and help from members here is second to none. But, being a member of both sites I'd say that mgrover.org get the banter and social side of things just about right. Sorry, maybe I'll shut up again. That's twice I've had my two bob's worth. I'm out past my curfew. Nighty night Bluey |

Cheers Bluey. Probably a life lesson in there I think. I do hope things get better soon. I really do.

You seem to have taken over this thread and are actively hindering its progress, and clearly are not receptive to any form of criticism, constructive or otherwise. Getting personal with me or pab or anyone on this thread is not warranted, and you have been warned after your last suspension not to cause discord which you are demonstrably doing here, whether you can see it or not. You give us no choice but to send you on your way I'm afraid. You can only have so many last chances. Thread temporarily suspended while people consider what the on thread topic was originally about. |

You too have been warned on several occasions not to bait or flame others, and have a poor track record for civil posts. While your opinions are your own on the way this site is run, they are clearly not shared by the majority of respondents on this thread. If you seek an unmoderated forum then you need to look elsewhere. I will not censor your comments, they can remain for anyone to draw their own conclusions, but the outlook you have for this club is at odds with the way it has been set up to operate, in a relaxed, friendly and non confrontational manner. Your time here is also at an end. |

Can I make it crystal clear that the decision to ban the latest 2 trouble makers was my own, Paul just got there with the explanations quicker than I did.
I will also add that they were long overdue and there are a few more overdue ones that I will be quite happy to "process" if they give me the merest flicker of a prompt. Enough is enough, this club is being returned to the members, to those that enjoy coming here to discuss the cars without bickering, politics, or snide remarks.
