left as in cast out ... AND reported to north Wales police
To this day I'm still stunned by it as I try to always be polite and to apologise if I unintentionally offend, and as I've said before there's only one here that I couldn't care if I offend as that person seems to go out of their way to cause offence to others. All I ever did over there was attempt to initiate debate but I think because it was construed I was criticising the police there was no room for debate or discussion. Nowt to do with their forum admin being ex job of course
Anyway things are much more friendly, open and lively here and with one cowardly exception fairly offence free

turns out the person who owned the domain name and / or the servers where the site and forum where hosted had fallen out with the club ... surprise surprise as they're such a lovely bunch of admins to deal with :S
... any way that person has gone bust or just pulled the plug on them in a fit of pique or something .
Bunch of amateur muppets is all I can say

There are only 2 online places of interest to me where beemers are concerned. Here, cos I think it strikes the right tone as a social / technical forum, and Pelican, because hidden amongst the abuse, patronisation and sometime unpleasantness is a wealth of useful info.
