The Committee have been aware, for a while, that a number of members have been working behind the scenes to create a alternative website/forum dedicated to Renault Turbos. Although we have had no objection to this site being created and advertised through various social network sites we have learnt today that these members have started to contact RTOC members directly through our site & consider stealing club Intellectual Property.
The top priority for the Committee has to be the protection of the club, its members and its IP which has been collected over many years.
Although we were happy to compete with the new free forum and work with these members, as a number are long serving and well respected members of RTOC, we cannot allow them to continually undermine the constitution of this club and put its future at risk.
For these reasons we have restricted the access of the following members:
Mart,
Big Steve - Raider,
Adey aka Ewok,
Sending PM's out, poaching members through the club is underhand and will not be tollerated.

Hopefully the genuine members of the club understand why this is has been done, it is the absolute last resort.
The Committee are having a conference call tonight to discuss any further action and decide how to get stop all the back biting and slagging matches on the boards as we are all growing tired of it. This thread will be updated once we have made our decision.
