The weather's awful out there.

I'm amazed at the amount of people registered to 'nay say' the post. Can't they register and show their Land Rovers instead???

Did someone mention Zag????? Laughing

If he's got LED head lights fitted to that I think they may need to be self levelling / washing and he would only be able to sail it outside the EU on the off chance they are not legal Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter It's good to be back from the dark side

I am disgusted by that image. My brother's wife's mother's third cousin once removed is fat and therefore I am offended deeply despite it not affecting me in the slightest.

Do you not think!?

As Pike of Dad's Army once said..

"Yarbou sucks Ner Ner "


No I don't know what that means. And YES! I know it's Off Topic But I don't give a damn I am going to use my FREEDOM of speech and use it sensibly without needing moderation from higher ups.

It's unbelievable to think all this stems from a post about an aerial. Two or three threads of rubbish Laughing $W33T $0U7H3RN $UG4R

Right, well I am completely damned now as I have removed the photo from the post - so there goes freedom of speech - keyboards at the ready.

The forum is post-moderated, this means that anyone can post what they like and moderation can only take place AFTER the event.

Complaining that certain posts represents the forum's attitude is competely short-sighted and seems to be being said because some have general underlying problems with the forum as a whole - I take it this is due to anger.

I noticed that no-one has commented on my response in this thread to the original point, but have decided to continue an argument?

I find it utterly unbelievable that people would rather have simmering resentment towards an entity (the forum), and me as forum owner, because of something that they didn't like (going back to the original point, sponsor activity) and chose to keep totally quiet about it and/or stop using the forum. How can I improve the forum when there is zero feedback to me about issues members have? Instead there are rants months/weeks later, and elsewhere on the web, claiming the forum is a dreadful place - which I obviously do not agree with.

I do not want to run a forum that no-one wants to use, or feels that do not want to be part of. I would hope that taking all the forums I run as a whole shows that I am committed to running friendly, welcoming and informative sites with helpful, interesting sponsors who enhance the forum.

There is no point me begging people to stay - you all have freedom of choice - but I would ask that if you have a problem then talk (complain) o me and help things improve. Why take offence and complain elsewhere?  1988 90 Td5 NAS soft top

Anyway back on to the subject ... it's been a wild week on D2 - Forums need to evolve and improve and that's what is happening, CHANGE - embrace it or die !

If you don't own a land rover or don't have an interest in land rovers - find another forum to BMW (bitch moan and whine)
