Must be that time of the month or something but all I've done for the last four days on this web site is get involved in bickering and childish crap.
I'm not naming names because its so widespread it applies to loads of people, I've also spent a lot of time already and I've really no desire to spend any more.
Can I politely ask that people grow up a bit. I can't really be any clearer than that. I'm getting pissed off so I'm sure other people are with the constant immature little cunty comments all over the place, to the point that I need to post this. Feel like I'm back in the classroom dealing with little kids who need to sit on the naughty step.
If its a Help thread, help. If its a project, look at the photos and read the text and give words of encouragement or constructive advice. If its a general car topic, don't ruin it by talking shit. If its an Off Day topic, have a bit more of a free run but don't take the piss if you think it might result in a complaint.
Sure I've said this before but clean slate time please, get rid of your little twatty grudges for things which don't really affect you anyway. Read the message and respond to the message, don't just look who it is posting and decide that you're going to ruin the thread because of who it is.
I'm not holding anyone's hand and bringing them round to avoid a ban, and I won't be reading any emails relating to coming back. I've been out of a salaried job 12 months and I've got less time for childish crap now than I had before, and I'm not even interested in delegating the job and taking people's time away from important jobs.
If you're wondering whether it applies to you, it probably does. If in doubt, carry on and you'll be clear when you see the ban message.

This forums not a bit as bad as some for childish bickering and trolling. Pistonheads for example
But nice to see there's action being taken.

Off Day normally is better, its stuff like project threads being filled with crap and people getting involved in things instead of just making a complaint and leaving it there, and in at least one occasion people not doing what the staff ask them. Just a whole volume of stuff which makes talking on the internet far harder than it needs to be.

I know what you mean, pointless insults are just rude.
If you wouldn't say it to someones face, then don't hide behind a screen.

For example my thread, most of it isn't offensive its just saying stuff to get a reaction, people don't care if I don't do track days, nor do they care that I haven't bought an r26 nor do they care my car hasn't got semi slicks its all just said to get a reaction, at least I hope it is because youd have to be a fucking simpleton if it isn't.
