On one hand yes, new people will join but consider this - say *I* left. I just can't see anyone of my kind of calibre existing anywhere else in the world, so the forum suffers and no-one has a good time anymore.

    Not really. Tescos sell food. If you want it, you will have to pay for it. If you don't pay for it you will starve, or you could steal it and be arrested.

    This is more of an ultimatum, and yet no-one grumbles.



    Was more aimed towards the confirmed intentional non payers to perhaps encourage them to add their 1.3p's worth of why they don't feel the need to join if it be for those principal reasons rather than just be purely negative and F and blind.

    dont mean to be funny stan but until a line is drawn under what is offensive and what is humouress, this place will suffer.

    new outspoken people may join and replace the ones that have left, but i do think you need to put your hammer away for a while and stop removing posts/pictures/off topic posts etc etc (moving to relevant section is fine). thats what makes this forum great...the randomness, the pics that have no relevance. (i still have not forgotten the snoop dog/snoopy incident). Unless a post is offensive/threatening, you should allow users to express themselves freely albeit with pics of gangster rappers, otherwise this forum really will just become a site for car information and not a place where all the cool people come to hang out..!

    Are you including yourself in this group? Dunno

    If people want things left alone, that can be done to a degree. However, it was exactly that scenario which prompted people to say the forum was going downhill and that no-one was bothering with it...

    Tbh steve deserved that ban, I liked the guy but you'd be stupid not to see that was a comment purely for the purpose of causing fuss prior to the forums closing the doors. It was a blatant attempt at causing a reaction and the reaction imo was deserved.

    Nice re-enactment, appreciated. I felt like your heart was really in it, too.

    I will just say if someone wants to pay for my membership thats fine. I guess now is the time for me to say something from the heart.

    This is dedicated for only the beautiful people on the forum. (all of you).

    I dont really do forums and internet, but gotta say this site has been informative, hillarious and also bloody annoying at times. You are all good people, I dont have a bad word to say about anyone. Those of you I met I will no doubt stay in touch with.

    I already said why I am not paying, but just so you know I gotta work hard now and sort my life out for a change, so 1 less distraction will help me.

    Anyway,

    take care and just keep on rockin, f**k as many women as possible and dont use a johnny cus they feel s**t! Thumbs up

    Me any Kennedy will see you at the bus stop!

    If there is ever a reason for a paying site it is this last useless s**t post by Jsoulsman. They will at least cease when it comes in Zzz
