There wasn't any swearing in my last post - any swear words are blocked by the filter so it's moot. This is the whole point, why are people editing posts when there's a word filter already in place.
When I came here this forum was about a load of lads sharing their heaven and hell moments of owning these wonderful bikes. Now it seems that criticism and all round negativity to other peoples actions and opinions is the order of the day.
Perhaps the current nature of this forum; resentment and unfriendly attitudes fronted by coppers and narcissistic jobs worths is preferable for lots of other people - but not me. Admin - please delete my account.
you overcame the filter by trying to be a smart ass.. don't let the door hit you on way out.
Anyone else?
the forum hasn't changed all that's happened is people have been asked to tone down the language... if you can't even do that, then why bother posting.? i would like to think that most of us can make a post without being derogatory? is it that hard?
and if you would like to moan about me or other mods put it in a pm... rather than cluttering this thread!

I didn't say u did but you have been deleting others posts that really wernt that bad its a forum at the end of the day its all about having a laugh and talking about bikes. its not like it a family forum
I did ask a few times now for the gay thing to be toned down to a stop.
I had complaints and had to address it, if I don't then we're all stuffed. Despite whatever the hell someone wrote up there this IS a family site and certain material isn't allowed. It's a free forum, being free it falls under 'Family Site' .. if we want more privileges then it will cost.
Yes at some point I got extremely relaxed so the numbers would build, but please dont think i'm worried about the forum dying. It is dead and has always been dead.
The site never used to be that way and the hope was we could return to days of yonder.
Certain banter was NOT always here, it was brought in by new members.
A LOT of older members who used to provide valuable information left after the last wave of flounces. Sad but such is life.
Of course to a certain degree we have to be reasonable and normal banter is absolutely fine, but lets not be stupid you guys know exactly the kind of thing that's getting annoying.
If someone posts something that can get the whole site in trouble, it will be removed without warning. Why the hell not? Not doing all this for someone's jokes to get it shut down.
I've had two warnings from the host regarding people posting personal information and currently the site is being looked at thanks to Mr Scammer. You're choosing the worst possible time.
Times have to/will change
Regarding any mods. I appoint mods so if you have any issues or complaints please contact moi and i'll deal with it.
