I'm glad that this has sorted itself out, but just to re-iterate for the future:

Okay, this is the one-and-only warning to EVERYONE: all the name-calling, baiting, trolling and other crap will end immediately. Anything that looks in any way like a personal shot at something or someone else will be followed up by formal warnings, the temporary bans, and a permanent ban if necessary.

You're all (apparently) adults, so please start acting like it. Less of the schoolyard garbage please, I was hoping you'd all be beyond that.

I know we all like to stir each other up in a friendly way, but everyone should remember that words written on a screen are not able to express tone of voice and body language. This is why emoticons were created, right? If your post is meant to be a friendly jibe, then MAKE SURE it comes across this way - add a smiley or something. It's an extra few keystrokes on your keyboard, use it.

Most people on this forum are really nice people and have helped me out a lot when I've pm'd them, and met them. It's really hard to judge someone by what they type on a screen because of the way it comes across like Godzilla said.

From what I've seen, we have the best part of SAU. Could be because we had bought a wagon for our family or business and don't get many boy racers.

I still love my Stagea and it was a huge bonus to have this forum as a place to go :) huge thanks to everyone for making it so great!

It must be a full moon at the moment.

I think Nick and OSB0RN's point is really important. What is intended to be fun jibes between 2 people who know each other can look like something totally different to the 99% of community members who don't have that history.

I guess I fit into that category ROFL :/

If being on Internet forums has taught me anything, it's that emoticons/smilies can go a long way to indicating the intent of a post. If you're joking around and you're not 100% sure everyone else reading it will get it, throw in a smiley for reinforcement. Just make sure it's a clear one - thumbs-up and thumbs-downs in particular can come across as sarcastic.

I try to adopt a policy of approaching a new forum as if I'm starting a new job - you're polite and respectful when you first join, after a while you can slip in the odd witticism, and before you know it you're one of the crowd, where everyone understands your sense of humour and can tell when you're just having a bad day. I also do my best to avoid sledging, because one day I just might meet the guy I've enraged in real life and I'll discover he's 6ft 9in tall, made out of granite and finds me irresistably sexually attractive.

:P <-- Required smiley...

Whoops.....I'm in the worn area again....way too touchy feely for me in this man crying area! :P

While I'm here though.....oh don't worry you guys won't care about me coming out anyway!

    • I would be lying if I said I wasn't interested in what MCM were going to do with the NC I really enjoy their banter and occasional collaborations (like Alan from TSF, Ben from BCW, or any of the Haltech guys throwing around their experience), and I have probably watched everything they have put out
    • Not yet, we basically drove it to a private road, got the logs and drove it straight back. I think I need a new passenger seat belt after the mrs squeezed the life out of it. 
    • Sounds insane! 🤤🤤🤤  Do you have any vids of it driving?  A flyby would be nice!
    • The prices of NCs are going to go up thanks to you... and partially the MCM guys.
