As we are both aware,the derogatory comments were "I get the feeling one might be going down soon the way the politics and the personal agendas are going..........its become a bit of a joke there sadly".
But obviously this is only "trying to add value to the club".
The club will continue to grow because of the work put in by the MT,Webteam etc and the financial support of the members.I do find it sad that non members can post,I believe it should be a privilege of membership.

So based on a post in this thread, you went hunting onto another forum and then combined two different posts taken out of context due to not posting the contents of the rest of that thread and decided to post it here to prove what point?

I personally do not feel that his comments on the other forum were derogatory and that's my view as a paid up member of the dsc. Taken in the context of the rest of that thread they were a personal view of how he sees things on this forum.

The club continues to grow because 'people' put in effort, irrespective of whether they are MT or webteam.

:lol: :lol:

Eric last year I was indeed a member, and as stated in another thread I was even awarded by the MT at last years dinner dance for the number of posts in one year on this very forum, in excess of 5500 currently and I've been posting here for over 5 years.I have an opinion which you do not clearly agree with which is fair enough, but I'm still here posting even under the current grey clouds.To say you need to pay to access the forum would be commercial suicide for the DSC, would you pay money towards something and not know what you would get for your money?Truth of the matter is I don't have access to DSC Topics (I believe???) which is for paid up members only, so there is an area just for people who have contributed on a financial level. So there is some segregation but not a complete ban as you would like.My comments on UpNorth have been taken out of context by yourself, as has since been highlighted a thread was started by a non-DSC member who was shocked at the threads on this board and the problems and friction amongst it's posters, I made a comment which as I have stated earlier I'm not very PC so forgive me there, it was actually a bit tongue in cheek if you knew me you would understand my humour.All this is doing is adding more fuel to the already burning fire at the moment, something I'm keen to put out and resolve, if all the issues from the last AGM (did you go?) are finally resolved and the MT accept the new constitution that's been put before them, and the running of the club, the funds become more transparent to it's members I'd rejoin in a flash until such time I'll keep my 20 quid or so and put it to good use with riders for health (oh I did that earlier in the year when I lost a bet with TP on the board) or maybe the air ambulance service.Jon

paragraphs wouldn't go amiss ;)

:lol: It's all a blur ... calls himself a nerd too! Sheesh!

I can't even follow this thread anymore, and speaking as the official DSC thread hijacker I've lost count of all the tangents that have been 'explored'!

:lol: :lol:

I wondered why I hadnt seen you since then! :lol:

Anyways, it was 2 Silk Cut you gave me, thats equivalent to a butt rolie of my Regal King Size ;)

I type everything in with paragraphs but something with IE on this new work lappy and the new boards screws up... honest! I can't even click todays posts or any of the forum buttons at the top of the page they all redirect me to my control panel! It's all a wild blurrrrr...... :D :D :D

Jeeez How can you remember they were silk cut? :confused: :D
