why is everyone having a cry over such a small thing?

everyday i see threads on the "site management" as you have chosen to call it, in the support forum, and all they get is normal responses.

as soon as i post a question, i get flamed, PM'd and told over and over by every single admin on the site (once from admin would be sufficient) how i need to mind my own business and not try to run the site

all i did was post a question, because i notice a massive amount of users with 0 posts.

if everyone wants me gone so bad that they resort to flaming every thing i do, just get it over with and ban me.

I do not think you are in a position to cry foul, and show me where you have been flamed to start with, I think we have been very responsible in repling to your questions and posts.

We have sent you PMs, btw, of which you have not replied and decided to make the issue public.

You have raised 2 issues lately, both of which should have been directed to the admin team for either us to post replies, or to answer you directly. If you dont want to deal with the Admins, then there are moderators you can talk too.

Not once were you told to mind your business.

I think we have gone out of our way to welcome you to the forums, and accomodate your needs, I am sorry you can not see that, and my reply above was in jest, otherwise i would not have included the smilies and just deleted your posts.

8 weeks of operation at this stage is not enough time to cull members, many of which do not post, some of which will never and want only to read, others will never return.

To add also, I am available on MSN and like others have done, am free whilst online and happy to chat to anyone!

An that is why this forum seems to be very open and free of agro. I love it and even if you can only turn up to the odd function you are still welcomed as "one of us".

I have met many great people through this forum a dn I would not want to change anything. Some us post when we feel it is appropriate, but that does not seem to make us on the outside we are still one of the family so to speak.

Dez - I think godspeed may have been telling Cams290 to upgrade his truck - though I'm only guessing.

G'day all. In relation to "I wish I saw what he wrote before it was edited", I actually don't remember what if anything else I wrote. Laminge; Did you actually edit anything?

For those of you who are wondering exactly what's going on here, the post was written by a r/l friend of Cam's in an attempt to wind him up. Don't read any further into it, because it's a pretty straightforward thing. Those of you who posted about the truck, spot on. That's exactly what I was referring to.

I've seen fire trucks with that twin steer thing, looks pretty cool.

Whats that 4WS (four wheel steering I assume) I've seen it a few times on old cars.
