| So, although I have been a paid up member, participated in trackdays, attended meets and rides outs, even led them, and promoted the club to new members for the last 3 years, I am now not ALLOWED to sell my Ducati bike here either??
And someone said this wasn’t personal……
The reason I deleted the other post, and those on here, were twofold; it seemed to be ruffling some feathers which isn’t great for the club (!) and I was pi$$ed off with many of the remarks I had aimed at me for my decision which I deemed personal – whether the poster did or not is immaterial as communication is what is understood not what is said..
The post was not one of political rambling, nor were there toys out of pram moments, nor big statements of everyone leave….I simply advised that I was not renewing and I had moved on and that I would still be around on the board, at ride out and support the club in ways other than the £20. I though some of my friends on here would be interested and it would stop people asking of I was renewing. For this, I get flamed, told I can’t sell my bike, picked up on spelling (!) and generally told I no longer belong here….and where were the WT then??
Some of the stuff people post on here about their personal lives is incredible, much of it not related at all to bike…they do it to share an experience, good or bad, with virtual (and some real) friends…well I tried to and look what happened, even though it was completely relevant to the club.
While I aimed to continue to support the club in promoting, membership, attending meets & ride outs, and generally helping where I could, clearly I am no longer welcome by some to do this.
To me, it stinks of the elitist, cliquey issues that have been levelled at the DSC for some time.
In summary, if I am not welcome unless I cough up the dosh, then I guess it’s another home for me. I assume those on this witch hunt will also go after all those without a roundel?? (Rhetorical) DuN seem to be a decent bunch, the best of here with none of the elitist ****, I think I’ll go there.  |
