Matt..... lol i'll be buggered if i'm reading through all 4 pages of Crap! all I wanted to know was when our mighty leader might say something.... and 4 pages on.... nothing
Ha ha facebook what's that!!!
Chris it seems to me you have a big chip on your shoulder about something don't know the ins and outs but it's all getting a bit ott now.
Draw a line let go.
Try not to forget this is a car club not a secret service. In my opinion there should not even be CM boards, FFS just text each other!
Not getting drawn into the bickering as I am here for a laugh and share the knowledge of my cars and have been for 15 years or so.
One second there Matt. I hope this doesnt affect our mutual appreciation of the f4r with a T engine.
club articles. There is no such thing really. This whole thing about intellectual property of the club is a bit on a nonsense.
The author who writes the posts retains the IP. Unless specified by a terms and agreement when they sign up.
Its incorrect to say that RTOC own everything on here. They dont. The individual who wrote the post ( like the top articles by IanS ) are the IP owner.

oh well that reads differently. Where were these posts steve?
Its not the legalities that's at question per se more the act of using the articles for the benefit of another web site/club. Andy im sure all systems will be back to normal shortly and we can get back to discussing bent f4rt con rods!Originally Posted by Adey aka Ewok
As a last thought on the use of articles, im sure if someone asked to share your porn collection you would be less than happy. After all you dont really own the females displayed!
EDIT - The Facebook comments came from a feedback to a post from an original comment by Chris Smith aka Shopboy about a new car or something... (can't remember) It was a discussion amongst friends as you would in a pub. Didn't think it was going to be used as evidence in the Committee's Court Marshall of Mart and I that's resulting in our impending Ban come this Saturday...
I haven't bothered posting on here recently..
But seeing as it looks like Mart &Steve are going to get banned, I will let you know all know how they saw the committee boards....
I still have access to the all boards.
During my time of membership bod I set up my account to have full access in the event of me being removed from the committee.
Please feel free to ban/remove me from the site.
My time here is over
mine my membership is up at the end of month 8 years of rtoc is an end , club is not what it used to be ,this thread and subject is a joke and the committee are a joke , two of the best members on here and you restrict and are thinking of banning them wrong imo.
time to move on
So Chris, it was you that took the snap shot of the CM boards? This is all the Committee really want to know.
Finally.
So, CM decisions can now be made properly in each member's case, permissions sorted where necessary, and then this can be closed out.
Then, all those that still want to leave can do so.
1), I had my reasons for standing down - you know exactly why I felt I couldn't work on the committee and that I needed time off the boards.
2) was not my intention to stop it going anywhere, was my intention to help push things forward and have abit of a shake up/motivation...
3) will be happy if that last statement is proved incorrect
Depends on what the future brings... when this website is migrated over to a new Forum it will "hopefully" be a big improvement....
It appears the committee/background members are now acting abit more productive and going towards the members wishes....if this had been done back in day X when it was first mentioned alot of the recent crap wouldnt have happened...
Absolute joke Chris, very dissapointing! I can't believe you've sat by and watched all this unfold without saying something!
At least now decisions can be made and, as Trev says, those who feel the club is going now here can let their memberships lapse and leave. Hopefully then we can crack on and push the club forward without all the sh!te we've had recently!
I trust Mart & I can look forwards to the reinstatement of our full membership status this evening, as swiftly as it was afforded to Adey aka Ewok?
Amen to that, finally this saga is hopefully concluded gentleman.
Stop moving the goalposts, Gord'. The Committee have got the answer they wanted, so there's no reason not to reinstate the both of us now.
Penfold, thanks for owning up. Takes a bigger man to do that.
