Thanks to admin/mods
I'd just like to thank them for protecting us against the scary knowledge that people might drive whilst on drugs. I for one didnt think it was
bad and im glad I now know differently!

Why post pointless spam like this? What does it achieve?

I was voicing my displeasure at (IMO) unnecessary censorship on an adult frequented website.
I could argue its as pointless as your reply?

don't write OT on a new thread title, you're creating the topic, everything you write is very much ON topic!

I can see Fozzie's point... doesn't paint the (largely educational) forum in a good light!

Personally I can't possibly, see what justification there could be, for bragging about very poor ( or Worse) driving standards.
Not something I could be proud of. I value my ability to control a car.
Cheers fozzie.

no... 'my brother wasn't on best form' would have done, still, we're all grown up, we know it happens, and i guess it shows
that using stuff like that caused the crash, and its a bad thing,
either way when chris or fozzie see this it'll be closed too and maybe deleted, so it achieves nothing anyway, except pissing them off 
same as this one

Oh yes, I forgot, accidents only happen to people when its 'their' driving thats at fault.
If the comments re drug use were considered 'inappropriate' then surely a simple amendment to that post would have surficed?

Although I agree with Fozzies closing comments on the thread, I don't think it should have been closed. It wasn't getting particularly
heated and didn't refer to any member of this forum. I've seen far more heated debates on drink driving topics..............

This website is primarily for those who are building cars.......seeking help with their builds, and a bit of chat....well actually a lot of chat.
It is NOT an 'adult only' forum........
It is also used very frequently by schools and colleges.........
You (loggyboy and mr wibble) clearly have little knowledge of guidelines and legalities involved in running a responsible forum.
As said..there was no problem with the topic, even though rather tasteless/pointless, it was the reference to an illegal
dare I say it, crime .... that was the issue.
You would do well to remember that any post on this site is 'making an announcement to the world.'
Anyone can see and read them.
I/we do not close threads lightly, thought and discussion usually precedes......and for those that have participated in the closed
thread it will not always be a popular decision.
ChrisW (site owner) and I both had the same view to close the thread.

it would of been nice to talk about this in private, however you haven't given me any choice and i'll have to reply here.
I think if u had thought about a legal and responsibly guided forum you would of deleted the offending remarks, and not done as u have now, which is
draw attention to them instead.
as for if it was a bit tasteless, there were a few laughs in that thread aswell, and as for pointless, next time someone says nice weather today, will
u just ignore them or pass the time of day?
and if u want to talk about crimes, go and look at the thread marked how fast did u drive on a public highway?!
as i have made clear elsewhere, my annoucement about my brothers poor judgement which i DIDN'T know about when i got in the car.
Had it been a comment about drink driving I don't think you would of done the same.

Sorry.........but you are the one drawing attention to this.......yes......I got your u2u......
There was nothing in it to change the decision.......
Edit to add.....Oh yes...perhaps, mr wibble, you would look at Nick205's title again.....it does NOT mention a 'Public Highway'

yeah and i was nice and polite and would of at least responded to you had the tables been turned.
sigh. enough point scoring fozzie i've clearly rattled you, so they all did 130 on track did they, not if you read the posts...
never mind mate, i just think you could of handled it better, i think i could of asked a better question in my post, and maybe been a bit more
sensitive to peoples concerns.

sometimes as moderator fozzie has to make a decision that wont please everyone. Thats life. I think its bang out of order giving her a hard time about
it, its a voluntary job that someone has to do.
