Dave, for the abuse rules all you have to do is look at the bottom of the page (and Neo kindly copied it into a post in another thread for you yesterday).

Going on ANY forum as a new member and immediately criticising the forum structure, benefits, staff and other members is hardly going to be popular now, is it? We've all tried to be very patient, but if you want to be taken seriously you need to start writing your suggestions in a less confrontational way.

The next post you make that involves personal abuse against another member will result in a ban. Please amend your ways. Now if that's harsh moderation, I'm sorry, but we have to set a limit somewhere.

Anyway, only a fiver a year? Briskoda is free!

Fine - what will you be doing about postmanpat? thats instant ban criteria posting right there...

But i guess that newbies with polo's cannot join the "confrontational" banter on here unless they own a skoda and are cliquey with the mods...

Catch my drift?

Like i should need to even ask the questions in my first post you guys found "confrontational" - it should be very clear / concise and inviting to people like me...

Else yet again - you'll have more questions being asked and no-one joining...

As for postmanpat - i dont know what you said as it is filtered - as mentioned - you got something to say to my face - pm me and ill arrnage a place to meet.

{and hes getting quite scary now:eek: :orb_wise_ :eek: :orb_lol: }

Stop being childish and showing yourself up on a public forum...

No

Stop feeding the Troll

Fine - what will you be doing about postmanpat? thats instant ban criteria posting right there...

and just were have I been personnally abusive? Your the one wanting to

take me outside. The only post i have made remotely personal to you as used **** and as been edited by me because it obviously caused you offence. In all your other threads I and others have tried to be reasonable and accomodating towards you but have recieved nothing but rubbish in return.

Oh well suppose things will quiten down when the kiddywinks go back to school:rofl:

Stop feeding the Troll

Sorry bored and a gluten for punishment:P

and just were have I been personnally abusive? Your the one wanting to take me outside.

He only wants to give you a cuddle

Care to elaborate - or is troll offensive also?

Guessing al those long time members wont be banned...but moderation here covers up the bad things so it looks all hunky doory....

I really do not care anymore - its your site - your forum to do what you want with - but if you cant take a bit of criticism - then thats your major flaw in your master plan...

Thus why you probably dont care about what my intentions were when i posted...you all know that as your better and bigger than a polo forum and a polo owner looking to be a part of your community - oh well crack on locking / deleting threads - as i say its your forum.

He only wants to give you a cuddle

Thats quite worrying he called me a big gay lord earlier:D

Thanks - probably appears that i have come across "troll" like in some respect...

Here is my face of concern

Ooh I see a massive contradiction here, calling postmanpat childish and then telling him to meet up and 'say it to my face' pmsl! I haven't heard anyone say that since primary school! Child.

The reason none of us will get banned is because the mods know that we are normally all reasonable people and get on really well. You have come starting patronising post and getting people's backs up, then you just wont drop it. None of us have said anything without reason to.

course we can take constructive criticism, but yours was borderline sl@gging the site, and us, off. there is a difference. Even if a long term member did that they may not receive particularly happy replies.

Oh, and get over your polo ownership complex, if you feel so ridiculed for owning it, buy a different car

Here is my face of concern

Aww being a child again? Try going back to school, I suggest English class is a good place to start

I suppose it's about time I stuck my oar in..

Everyone one here ( without exception) has posted a comment that people disagree with, and 100% of the time we all agree to disagree.

After all everyone is entitled to his/her opinion. I think we all agree that you are not willing/happy to pay for freedom membership.

Fair enough.

Constructive criticism is welcomed by all.

Why are you being so confrontational?

As said before, if you don't like Briskoda, don't post, but please don't wind everyone up.

FYI, postmanpat is 6' 7" tall and SCARY

Walkie is Uber-fit and very strong

Emily-Elizabeth has the potential to be a mass murderer and get away with it because she is charming.

I have been called a lunatic in the past.

Now please stay and enjoy, or go away, and leave us in peace.

Like you?

LOL

You lot think that because you dish abuse and dont get banned on here you can do what you like - well i dont work like that - and if someone has something to say to me that is offensive and is intended to be threatening (forum rules) and nothing is done - well that leaves me to do that by myself now doesn't it...

Im sure ill see you all at some stage - i have a good year planned scooting about looking for some good shows etc...

Will be nice to meet some im sure.

Your site owner is very understanding and is reveiwing some pointers of mine - do i need to say anymore? NO - stop making me defend myself against petty remarks.

I really do not care anymore - its your site - your forum to do what you want with - but if you cant take a bit of criticism - then thats your major flaw in your master plan...

Yet again Dave appears incapable of being able to action a suggestion made in a previous post.

Oh and Dave, it's constructive criticism, thats the way forward and all is listend to when made as requested, unlike you've done so far.

Really folks, lets leave him be.

Aw thanks Mr G. :hug:

I will be your girlfriend Loz

Thanks Grumps - Very Concisive and well written...

I will stay and enjoy - if others stop holding a petty grudge over a poorly worded post.

We don't think that at all. If I went into all the threads and abused people I would expect warnings then a ban. I don't do this though, but you seem to be at the moment, hence why everyone has very little ttime for you.

I'm sure if you came to one of our meets and were a sound guy some or maybe all people would change their opinion of you. But really, stop being such an arrogant, patronising, up-yourself newbie, then people might chill a bit...

Does that mean you don't want me banning anymore:D

Thanks Loz - Advice Taken - and have been trying to repair some damage so far but may take a while...

Ill bugger off now - i am actually unaware of many other threads - you lot are quite a handful when you get going...

If only it was like that when your car is broke and you need it fixed sharpish! lol

Or should i say - it is actually like that on here ill bet...

Dave

Yeah it is, you get pretty rapid replies to your queries because people on here like to help each other.

Right, get out of this thread and go round the site. Reply where appropriate, if you want to make a negative reply then do it, but do it tactfully. I hope you wouldn't go round treating people like that in real life, you really would get nowhere. It's no different on here

Really folks, lets leave him be.

As that's from the boss's mouth, then might I suggest http://www.briskoda.net/forums/profile.php?do=editlist

Nah its been almost as much fun as the treadmill thread, Forums need threads like this to break up the humdrum and remind us all what a good thing we have got:thumbup: If no one replied then the thread would not exist and then there would be no discussion, no 'pulling together' and no forum. Personally I have never been happier to be a freedom member. As for Dave so long as he doesn't continue his troll like behaviour (intentional or otherwise) then as far as I am concerned he his welcome and as broken up the monotony (sp) of a wet morning:rofl:
