Also, just to be clear, I dont know Mr White, nor do i know Dave Gtt. I may not even agree with what they say.
My problem is the treatment they get by the mods.
I am not gonna say i dont use the mod account, because i do. Its there for a reason and I use it. I also happily pm members about the reason why I close/move threads etc and often use my personal account although i should the Sir Mod account should be used so that other moderators can see what has been said via pm's etc...
I dont want other mods/committee members reading my personal pm's, hence why the sir Mod account is there so we can all use it at any time and know whats going on.
me and a couple of others with regards to freedom to speak what we want , where we want and about what ever we or i want is not funny or cool SIR MOD is a *****
You really need to get over yourself Kenobi .
I ruin your experience jesus christ .I make one sarky comment and your toys are out the pram .
Disrespecting other peoples opinions ?? ...yes that is all part of this great debate ...we should all be allowed to do so .I'm sure Mr White would agree
like i said the other day these type of debating threads get the highest view count even though no one wants to view them 491 people just cant stop themselves.
oops i should be talking about cars
Honestly this is getting out of hand.
I'm a relatively new member of the club and have so far found it to be easily the best car forum that I'm a member off.
Now in the year or so that I've been on here I've picked up on who know's what there talking about and who doesn't, I've also came to realise who post's total crap on a daily basis, to the point that when I log on hit "posts in the last 24hrs" if they're the thread starter I won't even waste my time looking at it.
Why can't people just accept that this is a car forum full of usefull information and not a social networking site. It seems some members spend their days thinking of controversial threads and argumentitive points which I also feel are of no benefit of the club.
If people really feel the moderating team are infringing there human rights and there freedom of speech then feel free to leave the club and force your views on some other misfortunate people on an alternative forum. Like cliosport for example there you will be allowed to argue till your egos are satified.

Down the years there have always been the odd one or two that like to give it the big one about rights and civil liberties and how this club is run like a dictatorship. Phooey.
And there are always one or two odd balls that get folks' back up with the drivel they write (and the persistence with which they write it). Typical.
Experience has taught me that the complainers haven't got much else better to do (given that there are so many more worthy causes out there to be supporting*), and the drivelers become dribblers and eventually disappear.
*that is, better places to be defending the freedom of speech, rather than being all righteous on a flippin' turbo owners internet club site.
What a load of hot air and wasted effort. Like Eastenders.

Any problems, comments or suggestions ? Post them here
You can say what the feck you like but I can't ? Is that it ?
no clee thats what you and other do to me and certain other ....
and geuss what all i do is care and want to help
Nobody payed me to post it I'm just a "free thinking" individual like youselves
I've never locked a thread or edited one and I'm quite happy to have bun fight .
To start, i dont post very often, but always read through the threads. If there is something i dont like i ignore it. I think the problem here is that people are getting aggressive and causing needless arguments. Its always difficult to understand something that is in writing rather than spoken. Maybe thats the problem? The mods do there job, and its a bloody good job they do to. I personally would have deleted all the threads from the last few days too. If there's a problem then there is a better way to deal with it, ie at the AGM or through a pm to who you have a problem with, i think you can even pm sir mod.
This club does amazing things, and yes there are people who have been here for years and others who havent, everyone is as sarky as the nxt in a sensible thread.
I think the mods, comittee, members and agrieved get the point now.
I as a member would like to see this thread locked, and hopefully things can be sorted more amicably away from the eyes of everyone who doesnt care, but may start thinking twice about renewing there membership.
