i havent noticed any bickering at all, but then i dont read every post here since id rather be in the garage doing some work.
but regarding posting complaints to suppliers i think it is wrong. ive hade bad dealings with a particular supply on 2 seperate occasions with very
long delivery times and missing parts when they arrived. i gave them 2 chances and they disapointed so i simply wont be buying from then again. thats
enough for me without having to come here and rant about it. if you have a problem badger the supplier not the forum!

Easy!
Thats the most obsurd thing I've heard all year! What exactly do you think that would achieve?? I don't see how booting ppl off the site
from either camp will solve anything. All you do is stand to loose some great advice from some truly knowledgable and skilled ppl. It p*sses me off
that ppl could even suggest such a thing!
Secondly I find it incredibly ironic that one of the main perpotrators of all the arguing is the one to come one here and moan about it! Its a bit
strategic. "I'll start moaning about how childish it is first so that I seem like the bigger man" Steve you should really grow up.
Mark you shouldn't rise to it. Suggesting that ppl should leave locost because they have other good forums is just non-sense as well! Why
don't we make a good indy forum for team hellfire then they can leave too? I'll hang around the Tiger one instead. It doesn't
achieve anything other than the demise of this forum.
I fell sorry for real locost builders as most of the hassle seems to be coming from "outsiders" who built kits....Anyway rant over you all
need to get a life and go build something rather than talking about it! Oli.
PS.
I think the moderators should be ditched. Especially if they are so openly biased towards one side or the other. We've managed until now
without them and we'll keep on managing thank you very much.

I am absolutely sick of the constant postings about certain manufacturers dominating this forum. Certain sections of the forum now have their own
personal moderators to lock the threads to stop negative postings. Is this forum free to all users or what?
This forum seems to have been commandeared by a few over-biased supporters. This forum is seriously going down the toilet due to a few over zealous
people.
99% of us on here are relaxed informative people who like to help other people... the way it's going this site will be down to one or two
antagonistic anal people, I'm about sick of it....

Oliwb, I think you'll find that if you paid more attention to the author of the posts, you'd realise that it is I (Phil) who has been
doing most of the arguing with your buddy CalvinX recently.
Again, if you paid more atttention, you'd also realise that it's CalvinX who throws down the bait and I bite most of the time. Maybe I
shouldn't rise to it but while ever it's personal, I'll bite back every time.........

I try not to get involved in the bickering.
This site is still absolutely fantastic for the techincal expertise of the members.
I've been playing with cars for years and this site has been the best 'tool' I've ever had!!

Why hide behind cryptic messages? Why not just say what you are inferring, for both the benefit of us and others?

I haven't got a clue about consiracies, but, if you post, stand by it.
And I'm not aiming at Hellfire / Calvinx or whoever, but people posting then deleting p*sses me off.
Sorry to hijack, carry on lads.

Phil, steve - whoever...I don't really give a monkeys! What exactly was the point in the first post? I mean really, what was going through
that little head. Its pretty obvious that your gonna end up with an argument.
Yeah I'm mates with Mark, so are lots of other ppl on here. I know you guys have your differences but contrary to what a lot of you prob think
whenever any of us are together we very, very rarely talk about the forum. Its a tool for us all to communicate when we're too far away
otherwise. I DO actually have better things to do in my life than phone up mark and rant and rave or listen to him rant and rave about stuff that
happens on here.
My point is simple. If your post has no logical reason to posted then don't bother! Its not worth the agro because all you do is feed fuel to
the fire that ironicaly YOUR complaining about. Its a joke. You should all grow up a bit....Oli.

Very wise words from young shoulders. Also IMHO the post has been made in this section so that Fozzie cannot moderate it. It is not really
"anything else" cause it's obviously related to all the bickering on the GTS section (which Fozzie can edit/control).
Maybe we should all be building prams and have a section "how to keep your toy's onboard"
I read almost all of the forum sections and feel that unless it's to do with building the car or technical/building issues then the postings
could/should be moderated.
If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.
