And no doubt this post will be removed because you don't like it or I'm not part of the Basingstoke groovy gang.

Moderation of other members is not any of your concern. You can have your opinion, but I can't reply because as mentioned many times before its done in private with the member. If they choose to make it "public" then that is their own decision.

I will state again though that the forum rules are publicly visible to all members, and we request they are complied with.

BTW, not a great way to get a point across by insulting people.

Yes, you have posted that before for some reason and it didn't really fit then either. Not sure what you are after right now other than an argument.

EDIT: Adding this note as the post above has been edited after I replied to it. I originally responded to a post saying only "Freedom of speech". My response should be taken in context of that, not the edited version in its place.

The thing is with life is that we all have opinions.

I have mine and you have yours.

And nobody can say who is right or wrong!

Agreed. But it does help when you have access to all the facts on a subject. Otherwise it could be an opinion which is in fact wrong.

I've met Alan and he is a nice guy. Full of fun.

His only downfall is that he has a SOH,

Most of the people on here do not!

I actually find the majority of people on here have a great sense of humour, and they still manage to comply with the forum rules and not offend other people.

I'm sad for you that you feel that way about the people you choose to interact with here. But as you you can have your opinion. Of course the members may think that it's insulting to be labelled in such a generalistic and negative way, but that would be their opinion (of you) which they are also entitled to.

As a new member of the site I'm a little lost with regard to what is going on... From what I can tell someone has said sometime that is deemed to be inappropriate so has been banned...

So my question is:

  • Banned or suspended?
  • What does that mean? Do they still have read only access to the site or 100% gone?

Just trying to understand how things work here.

Bad things? I only disagree with Bonzo being banned.

@POG. To put it generally without going into specific details, the forum like every other forum has a set of rules.

In this case they have resulted in someone being banned for a period of time (2 weeks). Banning is only carried out in certain circumstances, and only after a clearly defined moderation process has been followed. When banned a member has no access to the forum to view or reply to posts for the duration.

All moderation is (usually) carried out behind closed doors with the member involved, and 99.9% of the time the other members won't visibly see there is an issue.

In this case Badman has decided to create a public thread to voice his displeasure.

Who are you to comment? Nothing to do with you!
Mark, I asked you exactly the same question. As I put in my first reply "moderation of others in none of your concern". You carried this on to state everyone has an opinion.

Now you are back tracking on that "opinion" and trying to, stifle someone else's. Are we allowed opinions or not, or do we have to listen to yours and keep quiet?

Typical, I decide to go to bed early on a Saturday night for a change, well, we are one hour ahead over here.
Morning Bad ///Boy, I hope your head hurts this morning, as you obviously had a skin full of your favorite brandy last night to pluck up the courage to come on the forum and get involved in something that has nothing to do with you. If I had seen your above post, it would have been removed for the simple fact that (even though we are friends) I do not like s*** stirrers and through the years that this forum has been up and running, you rank up there as one of the best. Thank you for wasting all our time again replying to your pathetic little posts, your input on this forum is on a par with Bonzo's.

As for Bonzo, don't go crying your little heart out with your 'look at me, look at me' posts to Gaz, I banned Bonzo.

As an explanation to our fellow forum members, Bonzo has been warned on numerous occasions about posting inflammatory remarks on new members introduction threads, but for some reason, this does not seem to sink in. He is the first member in the history of this forum to have received a public warning that is marked up on his profile page, and that was a couple of months ago.
Even before that there were numerous PM's backwards and forwards between the Mod's and Bonzo.
I will explain to @badman gee what PM means, private message.
For some reason, known only to the person them self, they decide to make these 'private messages' public by posting up on the public forum looking for some attention and a pat on the back with only their side of the story, as you would expect!

Bad ///Boy, go and play with yourself, or your dogs.

I personally think it would be a good idea to lock this thread as it is not within keeping with the type of Forum we have created over the years. JMHO

When it comes to detailing I provide good information on here.

Nothing wrong with chain pulling now and again.
