The Stars Return To Ferrarichat.com

Dear Comrades,,

The return of Stimo360 further consolidates the resurrection of this Forum. Many stars have returned already and I have no doubt that more will follow

With kind regards,

512 Tea Are

 

I've posted here for a while, and never did realise why the place suddenly got deserted. It was like we were all going "Hellloooooooooo" and nobody was there. Didn't discover Club Scud until Dave Z told me that everyone had gone there.

So, what I'd like is a quick synopsis of a) why everyone left here in the first place, and b) why they are now leaving CS. I don't have time to get to know the ins and outs. Somebody do us a summary please.

Rob

 

from reading between the lines the word neurotic comes to mind

 

There's no basement in the Alamo

 

Some of us have never left !

 

I come back occasionally and when I do theres no-one else around

 

I like straight talking people i have never left here people left as me and rob had a little difference about a tounge & cheek comment about the alamo and i still think john wayne was a better cowboy than jim bowie

 

as short as I can make it....

a) everyone left in support of SteveF after he was banned by Rob. After a while wandering around Sy created Club Scud which most of the UK posters parked their rrses in.

b) everyone is leaving because the place just isnt as good as it used to be and is being mis-managed

This is just IMO of course.

 

ANOTHER RIVETTING THREAD

 

Thought you werent gonna post in the UK section again .... grrrrhhhhh

nice post Rob and apology appreciated I am sure. Theres a lot of water under the bridge now, so let's all move on and talk about cars and meets

 

Did you see DOUG NYE posted this week on "more old photo's" how's that for a star.

 

I'd prefer to think of stars being the light spots in the sky. They are ALWAYS there, no matter if its clear or cloudy That is a real star imo.

 

Well I'm (nearly) always here.....does that qualify me

 

A sensible,adult and well structured post in the UK section, what a lovely surprise.

 

Then you'd be wrong.

Its simple. People want to use a site where there are good people, good discussion, good banter and everyone is treated the same. This site wasn't like that IMO, but now is much better, CS was like that but now certain people get banned/infractions for something others get nothing for and it seems their is a pecking order and their is no freedom of speech at all. If you say anything some of the mods don't like or don't agree with, watch your back.

Onwards and upwards i say

 

well without freedom of speech forums are pretty useless so im all for f o s. as long as f o s applied on here too

 

FOS is positively encouraged, as is positive constructive posting, which we seem to have pretty much nailed over here at the moment, even Fitzy is a good lad

A few people commented on mine and Robs heavy handed approach to moderating, but now, a few months on, the site is settled and fun, and the need for moderation is nigh on nil, so I would like to think we have got it nearly right now, just needs to get a little busier, perhaps with the help of people who view but dont/rarely post?.



<Hazy puts on hard hat and waits for the flak>

 

Did they also comment on your stupid and inane “welcoming messages” that you send to new posters? The ones in which you make presumptions and judgements based on zero evidence. Or is that not seen as heavy handed? If you want this forum to get busier then perhaps you should hold yourself in check before sending ridiculous pm`s to people you do not know nor have ever met.

You don`t need a hard hat for any flak, you should try thinking before you send whatever is in your tiny mind out into the ether.

 

Who are you on about KC?

 

wow i agree 100% only 8 posts and you worked hazy out that he posts without thinking just need to get hazy to realise this

 

Post the welcome message up will you please. We like a good laugh.

 

All this because you got a 'welcome message' you didn't like??? Wow, bit harsh don't you think.

Do you use other sites under a different name or am i missing something here ???

 

Totally agree mate.
