This is a RANT

How come a member can post a sensible thread and get ambushed start to finish then get locked. This seems censorship beyond anbodys ability. I couldnt give a toss whether I am right or wrong, but when you get a poster that seems to make a crusade in following me, with a dodgy hair cut, and leave snide,cunning underhand comments that make him look a Censored , and I would love to meet again one to one.

I posted a thread on my EGR, constantly amended the title due to comments left, but not replying. For those doubters I call Censored , for the helpers I thank you, and you really have seen what the forum is.

Many thanks to DG who locked the thread, catch up with ya soon Wink .

AGIAN THE FORUM REARS ITS UGLY HEAD

I don't often get dragged into these "discussions", but it does seem unfair. At school these activities are labelled as bullying. Groups of people ganging up on individuals. Even the mods are involved. Sad. A laugh is a laugh, but there's a line.

TBH Jason, you have managed to dig some very large holes for yourself to fall in and draw a crowd of onlookers.

Yes I agree Simon, the 1st to agree. But the 1st Censored comment was Kens, and although meeting Ken its the usual style "I know best, but carry on", then the usual Lemmings followed.

I started a thread to establish HELP, thats all, no different to other members.

Put me in a sealed room with these Censored , Censored off with the MOD/SPONSER bullying which you too Simon have experienced

I think Mac the thread you started was a fair thread. But many others have started threads and you've waded in with less thant helpful comments. I think the reason your thread got locked because it ended up as 5 pages of nothing. No useful information, your conclusion was that that you weren't going to do the EGR blanking, so why continue a thread that is about nothing.

I know you can be a helpful guy, but recently I've seen posts where you've made derogatory comments and I think you've probably been getting a taste of your own medicine a bit.

Treat others as you would want to be treated.

I'm a little dispointed with the forum recently, I feel that some the friendly banter and mickey taking has been lost to moaning and sniping.

I can't say I've been bullied by anyone Jason TBH.

Yes I've crossed the line on occasion (as many have), but I got over it and moved on.

I would ALSO like to add that:

NO MODERATOR can/should change a Thread Title to belittle the thread starter without permission. This is the upmost in low activitys, cowardly and slimy. If the title needs to be edited (as its in the wrong Catagory), then comunication with the thread starter via PM should take place.

IMHO, what a Mod done by changing a thread title, then call me a cock, then locking the thread is cowardly and abuse of power that was given to them by the site owner.

For once we ALL agree. I think Question I am totally ANGRY and Censored off that small minded people on a Sunday, that can constantly leave Censored comments on my thread, then a mod come along, call me a COCK then lock the thread.

Me a COCK, come to Censored Hastings and say that you idiot. Internet hardman seems to be at work AGAIN

Are you in charge now then Mac Question ...I had to change the title as you had called a site sponsor a cock in it.
