What's going on?

Hi Dave

I think you are getting a bit carried away here

With regards to Pig I think if you go back to the post around him leaving I think you will find that I was very much in favour of him staying and I know that CC still keeps in contact with him.

With regards to closing the thread, I think if you read my comments that I on put when I closed the thread I would hope that my reasoning was to stop it getting too personal and as I said it was time to agree to disagree and move on.

Also the thread with the sunglasses it was mistake and it was fixed once I realised I made it, I suppose I could always take a pay cut for it..

Then again it cannot be all that bad :smile:

I agree to a certain extent , it is good to have a laugh and a bit of banter never hurt anyone , the need is there for moderation as I had some abuse for a member now gone which I felt got out of hand but no moderation took place but then I never complained , I think when pig got banned it was over the posts getting hijacked or language or something like that ,I am friends with him and he's a great bloke with a lot of knowledge , the guy with the sunglasses post I must admit should have been investigate before banning but there have been spammers on here and they advertise sun glasses and sadly the mistake was made.
The need for moderators is a needed think to deal with issues that arise in the forum, its not the easiest of jobs knowing when to step in or delete a post , I will be sticking around making a nuisance of myself ......not

 

I personally miss Pig and Bry, great characters on the forum and there in the earlier days when the forum was just set up. Only problem was sometimes they would just take the laugh too far and what was amusing and a laugh to us sometimes intimidated newer members.

Have to say its quite refreshing when you do get members who say what they think and are sometimes controversial but....

Every successful forum has moderators and admin, all done for free and in their own time. I hope any intervention can be done only when necessary and with a light touch, I for one am not planning to go anywhere else

 

Keep it strict, keep it bikes, keep it fun, loads of other sandpits for time wasters and abusers...

Respect

 

Wow! You proper love that Pig fella don't you! Lol

 

Really? Did that kind of thing actually happen on here? I thought laughter, fun, banter were all members on here that had also been banned around the same time as the other chaps?

My bad :wink:

 

Don't forget to keep chasing those tumbleweeds too....

 

But it's not acceptable!

 

That sounds a bit slanderous to me!

 

Well I suppose you could say that he has a very colourful way of describing things but also used to have me falling off of my chair a couple of times laughing.

I think he is related to this chap :biggrin:

 

Great clip btw

 

I thought it a bit dead when I joined.

Perhaps some members have doubled up there membership and disguised themselves under different user names.:biggrin:

 

Lots of new Trumpet owners !!
