"Admins should lead by example"

I think the last few threads, do have a point.  If there are going to be rules / guidlines, then it is not only fair for everyone to abide by them, and not this one rule for one, and a another for everyone else.  Otherwise this is going to set a bad president, and there could / will be a feeling that Admins are acting like politions, and do as we say, not do as we do, and I think that would be a sad day if it comes to that ?.

Let's look at the bigger picture here, if your a newbie, and you come across threads of a nature whereby aiming your comments to another member on here, with the intention of upsetting them doesn't look good for us as a whole being the OOF.  And would you stay for long if this seams the normal ?.
And if in a conversation about car forums are brought up, and someone new who's just joined, goes back to their friends with negative comments, what happens, when a once good reputation of a forum goes downhill  :-/.

If reading this, then admin decide to have a go at me personally, or start to mess with my level of membership, then so be it, because I have a life as well as this one on here, and I have to end by saying I'm disapointed a member on here, when this sort of thing happens... And this isn't the first time this has happened, and it'll probably happen again, but for Christ sake were adults aren't we, and surely were better than this.

Anyhow, I've said my piece, so let's get back to doing what this forums suppost to be all about, and that's helping each other out, and banding together, because if a small community on here can't, then there's no hope for us as the world !!!

[PhilRich]

Blimey, i'm gone for 5 minutes & look what happens!
Come on you lot, wind your necks in lets get back to 'rubbing along, regardless'!
Lizzie, you're more than able to put this spat behind you, anyone in a position of 'Authority' or Reponsibility in any walk of life develops a thick skin  as a matter of course. You are much  bigger than this, & must shrug it off & come back stronger than before. STMO is no less a strong character than you are, & you know better than most that 'opposites attract' & equals repel'!  .
STMO, you know better, you chewy git , now prove to  everyone just what a fair minded Gent we know you to be & hold out an Olive Branch?

[Welung666]

I'm very sad to read that you feel this way Lizzie, but I can fully understand your reasoning behind it. I've logged on maybe 6 times in 2 weeks, and yes I do miss it and I do lurk in the background.

This feeling of the forum being 'broken' has been floating around for quite a while now. I asked before the lakes meet if this was going to be discussed and I was assured it was with the members present at the lakes. Now I work in a school environment which means I couldn't get time off, as it was term time, to attend so asked if it was going to be discussed further online afterwards which I was assured it was. From my understanding, some of the problems were discussed between the Admins, Mods and pending Mods which, IMO, is a great start but that is as far as it has gone. Where does it go from here? I'd go as far to agree with the small changes that have occoured since the lakes but I still have reservations. There seems to be a definate cliqúe forming which just seems to be making the situation much worse than it was beforehand and this is just reinforcing my descision to stay off the forum further.

I don't know what caused this & i don't need to, suffice to say i'm glad Lizzie has'nt left entirely. It's good to know you're here even if we can't see you so to speak. I'll be honest Lizzie & say i don't agree with everything you say & feel sometimes you are to easily offended although this is only my opinion. I do however recognize & admire your knowledge on subjects that would leave me reeling.
    For the rest of you i know i'm outspoken at times, some of wish i would go away, others have become firm friends on & off the forum. Don't be a stranger, Guy.xx

You are?  :-/ When?         

[Mr Skrunts]

Lets not lose track here, in the misdt of Admin did appologise  (and is awaiting punishment  )

What has started out as H21 tuning the rules, to a couple of people having a general chat about lager in a for sale thread has kept us all talking for quite a while.

Lizzie has stepped back and not left, and I think all concerned are just hoping this thread fried up on it's as I am sure is is doing.

So the thing I am more interested in now are.

Whats the forecast for the result of the British Grand Prix tomomorow 

and what will the world cup outcome be.  Who Will Win. 

[FoxyV6]
