I have not been a member of this site for as long as some other people on here, but I am already annoyed with the twats that patrol this site thinking that their silly little comments are needed.
I will not put up names for I am sure all of you know at who I direct these critisms, what I ask is that Tim and Ian consider their options and do something about the constant arguing and bikering there is on this board, there really is no need for it.
I am surprised that certain users have been aloud to dick around with this site so much and still be users, personally I would have banned these trouble makers ages ago, but it is not my place on this forum to do so.
Granted a bit of fun and jokes every now and again keep the place fresh and with a light hearted atmosphere, but enough is enough, certain people are allowed to run riot and do as they wish apparently without any judgement being placed upon them by those in charge.
Like I say, maybe not my place to say, and I do admitedly welcome laughs and jokes on the forum, but blatent disregard for the purpose of this site should be punished with banning, we are here to come together as owners/past owners and even just forumites to enjoy a well run forum, we are not here to put up with idiocy shown by the few.

Don't continue to insult me by asking not to take it seriously. Unfortunately, some of us do, and thats our decision to do so. The crap that Steve and Rich have just posted in here illustrates exactly what is wrong and this isn't really a discussion point, it will stop - however that happens.

I am sorry to bring this topic up Ian, I do not intend to undermine your judgement by bringing this to your attention, I just felt it had to be said.
And thank you Steve and Rich, you havce just highlighted my points for me in no better way than I could have hoped.
Oh and Sxi Boy, it may be an internet forum, but this forum is designed for a certain purpose, and that purpose I am sure is not to let idiots run riot and ruin the place for other users.

 @ Steve, his innocence, haha.
You know full well as do I, Rich, Ian and many other users that the comment regarding 1.2 8v was some poor attempt at an insult, just like 33nm @ 3500rpm I know the figures, I am not particularly bothered, my car is what it is and I am happy enough, for my first car I am happy with it so please take your pathetic little put downs and cram them up your ass.

the purpose? an internet forum where you can exchange views and opinions with other people regardless of whether you agree with them or not
i.e. if someone tells you they think you may be asking a little over the odds for your car then accept their criticism with little fuss and don't provoke them

Yes I agree fully, yet this is not happening is it, and I did accpet your comments about the price of my car, I just thought they were badly placed and commented as such, I also thought they were wrong
I still find your innocence comical steve, thing is thats about it, you act a prick and for some inane reason your are allowed to get away with it, and we all know full well it was an attempt at a put down because of the context in which the comment was first made.

i could have worded it a lot worse! if i were you id look at what similarly specced cars are going for on auto trader.
i was only trying to offer you my experience as i sold a higher specced, newer car for a while at near to the price that youve advertised yours for

I have looked, and then added the costs of mods on top (bearing in mind I have half the price on them all) and then added a little extra for look, as I have already pointed out I have put "offers" which means I dont expect £3,500 bang on, it just seems like a decent starting point for negotiations.
Oh and Corsa Nut, yes I understand its just the internet etc, but the fact is why should I leave when I follow the rules, I am then the one missing out on this board not the trouble makers, or maybe I should stay and just put up with it which I am willing to do, or for my final option why dont we just get rid of such twats and make the board a better place for all.
I am sure that the last option is what everyone (except certain fools) would see as the correct option, majority rules my friend (except Ian rules in a fashion on his own :lol

Well Rob if your pretty new here how can it be better???
I love the site, you seem to be missing my point, I just dont see why certain users should be allowed to ruin the experience of this site for others.
This thread was also not intended to cause more problems, it was intended to let people voice their opinions, admittedly it was inevitable that such a thread would cause arguements buyt such things had to be said I feel, and action has to be taken.
I am sure Ian see the point of view on this matter.

Nothing to say whether anyone is right or wrong here - but something I do notice quite a lot...
the majority of the people who complain and think the 'mods should Do something' aren't even Premium Members!
I know its not compulsary - but if people want the mods to do things, its hardly much to ask, for you to simply pay a little £12.50 to show you support them...
You give a little, you get a little 
Not saying your not entitled to your say or are not allowed to get anything sorted - but the amount of 'freeloaders' on this site is crazy
Anyone would of thought to get Premium Membership you had to be millionaire!
