when's the ban up we need more non bay owners to balance it out on here, there's far too much talk of breaking down and low mpg.
Admin, for rising to Woody's baiting with a heavy handed ban. I've no idea how long he was banned for. Woody, for (I suspect) refusing to come back after his ban's finished. This is all speculation because we don't actually know exactly what happened or why. Personally all I saw was amusing, and sometimes pointed, occasionally close to the knuckle, ribbing, which is the "Joke" that I was referring to and was a nice example of the freedom of thought and speech which I assume we all hold dear.
But surely doesnt all that get a bit boring when the mods and admin have a job to do to keep everything even and, well, moderated? As an example, no one likes having to deal with petulant children all the time. They get sent to the naughty step. The above sounds like this. Perhaps I am wrong. Im sure hes a lovely chap in the real world but if the above is true, a bit of self moderation would have probably avoided this. And as a sidebar, is this thread still going? Cant we just talk about Ricky leaving some more instead?
You posted on it so yes I think it's self evident that this thread is still going. As for being boring I don't think anyone has accused Woody of being boring. Petulant children. Well I've found the best way of dealing with a petulant child is to ignore them, not get embroiled in a futile argument about some inconsequential transgression which neither of you will remember in a weeks time. I'd prefer not to talk about Ricky leaving, I personally hope that he stays on here for many more years. But then I'd also like to see Woody back posting, irrespective of whether I agree with his posts or not. I'm sure we've all heard of Voltair's famous quote, "I disagree with what you've said, but I'll defend to the death you're right to say it"
My lowest form of wit obviously lost on this one. Yes it is still going. And I am keeping it alive. As for ignoring? 300 + posts later we are clearly all over that one
