I'm forever getting tailgated.

I have been a member on here for a number of years and find this type of thing crops up occasionally, usually about this time of year when people are
bored or just pissed of after christmas .Look back over previous years and there are a number of threads like the recent offending ones usually early
each year.
I have looked at the threads but refrain from posting in them as it is what the originators want , if we all ignored them then there would be no
argument.
I found this site invaluable when building my car and now try to be as helpfull as I can but feel no need to join in the pointless arguments.
Hopefully new members will not be put off and this site will continue to be the valuable resorce that it is.
Paul.

is it safe to come out of the garage ?
without my bullet proof vest !!!!
Sad - Very sad. snoopy posted that hees off.
I dont pertend to be an expert on anything - the day job computers and systems i am not an expert but i know quite a bit but I still learn things
everyday.
but the waring factions on here !!! why can't people agree to differ there is more than one way to skin a cat at the end of the day you have a
skinned cat who cares how its been done. advice on different ways can be exchanged, all forums or peoples views shaould be taken as ' a way to
skin the cat ' not a personal attack that some would go about it a different way hey it would be boring if we were all the same.
Gees it all about helping each other out Last weekend I gave up my spannering time to assist a freind getting a 1960's fordson major tractor up
and running ( he's helped me in the past rebuilding my V8 engine ).
If someone thinks I have posted duff info on here by all means post it up I may have miss understood somting I aint going to take it personaly.
At times in history people were put to the gallows for saying the world was round not flat. we know now diferently.
Lets not spoil the resource that assists us all by acting like 4 year olds and if someone questions your reasons sit back and say 'well thats
there opinion' and post back with your opinion on the subject lets not get personal.
life is too short to argue lets leave that to the politicians ( was going to put wimin - but did not want to upset fozzi - THIS IS A JOKE ).
Kind regards

I posted this on the Snoopy leaving thread, I felt it relevant to add here too!
I used to believe in self-moderation - but feel the time has now come for moderators to step in. The self policing element only works if the majority
are pulling together - at the moment, the majority are splitting away and not visiting at all.
FACT! - This site helped me build my car!
FACT! - This site WAS a great resource for checking out how to do things, best advice etc
FACT! - This site now degenerates into a farcical slanging match at every opportunity
FACT! - Nearly every manufacturer who is being argued over stays out of these petty arguments - WHY? Because they are petty! I don't believe for
1 minute that any kit is better than another - it's interpretation and EVERY single person has different circumstances:
a) money
b) time
c) location
d) experience
e) tools
etc - the list is endless. a car that suits one person might not suit another - hence people buying Cateringvans ready built or factory built kits.
AT THE END OF THE DAY ITS ABOUT ENJOYMENT!!! ITS ABOUT STICKING 2 BIG FINGERS UP TO BORING OLD TIN TOPS AND GETTING BACK TO FUN MOTORING!!!
I love the back to roots feel of looking down and seeing my tyres eating up the road (unless its raining and they are soaking me )
So PLEASE people - let's get back to enjoyment - it's all SHADES OF GREY - the only two things in this world that are BLACK and WHITE are!
1) You will be TAXED
2) You will die
That's it!
So let's get some fun in before the latter happens

If you believe you're not crazy, whilst everybody is telling you, you are - then they are definitely wrong!

Has this never seemed just a tad dodgy? what happens when you go over gravel?
I was thinking of spats like an aeroplane would be better and more streamlined.

Nah, you need to be able to see the wheels going up and down! Just avoid puddles, road kill and cow pats.

That would look a little strange, but could look quite cool. Quite futuristic and spacey.

It's still technically Christmas everybody... so let's just maintain that spirit... and chill out! It's all pretty unimportant in
the grand scheme of things!!!

Wellll, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that. If the rest was flowed a little to suit, it could look ok. Not a lot like a 7 though.

LOL - I'll stick to checking out my tyres
I agree though - roadkill/puddles/cow manure etc all make for problematic viewing
Luckily I don't have a windscreen so my visor affords me a view
Well at least this thread has cheered up!
