SV650.org - SV650 & Gladius 650 Forum



Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

Hmm. Does that sound appealing?
The fact is that this site is not a democracy. If the Admins decide that anybody (and that includes moderators) are a bad influence on the site, or go out of their way to annoy other users then they have the power to cease the account forthwith. Snap, it's gone, it is no more...

The chaps that run the site can do as they please (it's their ball and they can play whatever game they like with it, with their rules).

It's more of a refined dictatorship

I don't see the problem personally, I drive more traffic to threads than anyone.

The benefit here would come from useful traffic. Anything else is a waste of bandwidth. Take that as an intended snipe if you like, it wasn't intended that way at all.

It has nothing to do with volume of traffic, it's the content. The threads that you have posted in all, more or less, tend to invoke ill feeling and resentment and this is not what we wish to see on the forum. Simple.

Not knowing the history, but having seen some of your recent posts, MPaton, I wondered if you were just playing devils advocate and chucking things in that would just cause reaction/discussion.

If you're posts are your actual views, then your opinions your entitlement, but they seem to lack general understanding about others.

However, folks- perhaps the best way of dealing with such things is to just completely ignore them? What's the point in getting totally enflamed- yes, if the general topic is worth getting het up over, fine- if it's just someone's point of view then cool- just don't respond to it!!!
