This one will be going the same way yet again tat is not allowed on this forum......please bear in mind.....
Some really need to stop feeling Life

Grrr, down with Fozzie, Fozzie is bad, she administers with a rod of iron. Lets protest, down with Fozzie. She interferer's with everything.
grrr.... Save locostbuilders, overthrow the draconian overlords......
Folks, does anyone feel that we have overbearing administration on this site? Its done very gently and self moderates very well. Fozzies intervention
is (i think) very infrequent and expertly judged. I would have personally liked the MK thread to have continued till an answer was given as its a semi
regular thread & an answer would hopefully have given closure and stop it restarting. Although i do appreciate i'm an idealist at times with
very few axes to grind and completely understand and support why it was closed.
ps already reported myself to Fozzie for a severe punishment & yes i've found it ironic reading this thread

To answer
NO
I agree
So would I after so much bikering a most definative answer would have a fitting end to the thread.
Nothing wrong with being an idealist I also ( having a scratch build ) have no axe to grind BUT I do like closure and definative ends to questions and
problems.
I do understand why it was closed ( to much slagging )but feel we were cheated for an end to the question.
Sometimes being a realist and an idealist does not get any answers.
Fozzie has a hard job to do sometimes and very very rarely has to intervene. I Hope she doesn't feel to bad when she does have to. IF it all
becomes to much for her then we might need to give her a big bosey ( cmon fozzie i reckon you know what that is)
If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.

Mike and Omega ...
Thanks for the encouragement...and yes, it is very much like being 'between a rock and a hard place.'
I also very much understand the desire for an answer to the questions (albeit off-topic) raised.......
But............the Post Originator a relative 'newbie' had his thread Hijacked which was not fair on him.....
It would have been better and probably more constructive to have started a new thread.
Debate is a good thing, especially with such expertise as we have on this forum...but again
when some resort to personal bickering (which is not on) it can and does put a lot of peeps off
and stops some knowledgeable peeps from joining in with their knowledge. 
And then the debate becomes forgotten and more 'bickering' ensues......
Kudos is then lost.....
I think someone started another Roll Cage thread anyway......I haven't looked at the site in depth today
as I have just come out of hospital (a couple of hours ago).....I feel really sore, tired and got loads of stitches..(had surgery this morning)
.....
I will catch up with it tomorrow....
Fozzie....
Mike...no 'punishment' needed
Omega ...yep a big bosey would be welcome...but only because I am feeling sooooo 'ouchy' sore ...

I get the feeling that a forum like this attracts a specific kind of person, namely one who can think for themselves/theirselves. This means that two
people will have very different opinions on something and even scientific basis/proof/experience to back them both up.
Luckily Fozzie's "rod of iron" doesn't have to get swung much
Oh and:
I feel this thread is pointless, please close it

Grrr, flipping easter eggs out in January, wtf? As soon as one "holiday" is over they're ramming the next one down us!
Although as far as I'm concerned they can sell creme eggs all year round
