    There are quite a few of us from 'Supercar Driver' attending with Ferraris to add to this incredible turn out for Connor, a heartbreaking story but hopefully some cheer will be brought to him and his family.

    Very upset and angry that due to a total jobsworth of a moderator i was unable to be a part of this. I'm from Huddersfield and i keep my car there most of the year. Literally about 6 miles from Meltham.

    Where has Steve gone? Only decent moderator on here and clearly a top bloke as well.

    As you seem fit to air your dirty laundry in public...

    If you harass other users and then tell the attending moderator "shove your warnings up your arse", I don't know how you could expect anything other than a ban. I would have much preferred to have merely had a polite word with you and left it at that, but you chose otherwise. You have nobody to blame but yourself.

    Regards,
    Andrew.

    You allow highly offensive + racist comments to remain on the board and for a long standard member to be accused of being a bigot. Thats what type of person you are.

    So don't be surprised if i tell you to shove your warnings up your arse as that's exactly where they belong. I have absolutely no respect for you on any level. Racists and those that tolerate racism are as low as it gets.

    I do hope Steve is ok and he'll be back soon to add some decency, common sense and intelligence to the moderation on this section.

    Why? A ban just means you can't post, nothing to do with attending what was obviously a great effort.

    Oh dear. Another timeout coming I feel..... I don't know (or care TBH) how you got in to trouble in the first place, but the above puts you on *very* thin ice at the least. The mods (all of 'em) do a fine job IMO and winding 'em up like that is never going to end well.

    Cheers,
    Ian

    How you could read the future, I'll never know, Ian.

    Also, your point is very well-made: a ban on this board in no way prevents someone from attending an event... any event.

    Hear that noise: it's ice breaking.

    This is how this ends: 60 days time out for 360stimo for being argumentative, combative, and for making false accusations against Andrew (saying he is racist when clearly he isn't), not as a Moderator, but as one of the most fair, even-handed, and more contributive users on the board.

    The accusation that i called Andrew a racist is completely and utterly false. It never happened.

    Hopefully an apology for the defamatory statement will be forth coming from Mike.

    Interesting that part of the reason i was banned was for 'making false accusations'. Will you be applying this rule to yourself Mike?

    It has been brought to my attention that 360stimo actually called Andrew not a "racist" but a "racist apologist". His exact comment in the thread was "Racists and those that tolerate racism are as low as it gets," which may be ambiguous as to whether Andrew is a racist or if he is only tolerant of racism, but his direct message to Andrew stating "You remain a racist apologist" clarifies his intent.

    Whichever he meant, Andrew is equally despicable. As accuracy is important, I have no problem correcting this for the record. The remainder of my ban message stands as is.

    As 360stimo believes the minor omission of the word 'apologist' and being 'accused of accusing another of being a racist' (yes, it is as odd as it sounds) warrants making threats of litigation against the board and one or more moderators, it is the unanimous opinion of the admin and moderators that he is not temperamentally suited to participation on a free-flowing board of this nature. Consequently he is permanently banned. In his own words: "So don't be surprised if i tell you to shove your warnings up your arse as that's exactly where they belong."
