Right, now where's a thread about CARS

I thought we weren't allowed to discuss cars in "The Pie and Piston"

as it is so there was no reason for you to start a new thread for the sake of it just to get some attention

Attention???? err... no! Haven't a clue how you worked that one out Mrs Fish??? It was a different subject matter anyway

Time to take out the garbage

Best remove most the threads in "The Pie and Piston" then mate!

This will probably be deleted before anyone reads it but it's a point I am entitled to put across

No not really. Just making a point, I probably wouldn't have posted in that thread anymore anyway

What point exactly? Are you suggesting that the P&P forum should not be moderated? threads should not be moderated/closed when they deteriorate to a waste of Ted's bandwidth with a few personal insults insults thrown in for good measure to spice things up a bit?

Feel free to expand a little more on exactly what your point is.

cheers

The personal insults were uncalled for but they could have been individually deleted... why were they not?

Yes. The P&P should be moderated but it should be moderated in a balanced manner, ie - You lock one thread then you should be locking other threads of equal qaulity

Does that answer your question Daz?

The locking of this thread pulls into question the whole point of having the "Pie and Piston"

A bit of emotion and babbling is always good to see.

Indeed. I believe if this thread is locked Ted will be swigging White Lightning on a bench by the spring...

Don't know, I'm not here full time, but clearly we need more moderation....

Very difficult to achieve the perfect balance, there are some that think to achieve balance this thread should be deleted as well. That maybe if you've got concerns about running of the site you should address them to Ted via email rather than trying to get an argument going on the forum.

No it doesn't. I calls into question how a few people are currently using it.

Stop whinging. It's most unbecoming of a grown man.

Let's get back to discussing something interesting eh...?
