Before we set off up the Bingley three and five this morning, I'd noticed a thread where a new member had enquired about having a wide beam put into the GU at Watford, before getting a bit of an unnecessary 'kicking' from the great and the good on there.
I noticed the discussion had moved onto thunderboat, with telemachus and trina attempting to defend us.
I had planned to respond myself this afternoon, to a comment mtb had made about the reasons thunderboat started, but the thread has been shut down.
Did anyone receive an explanation?
Just being nosey.

It was locked because it mentioned thunderboat too many times.

I think you’ll find it was me rather than Trina involved in that thread!

You are probably right.
I wanted to point out that people were banned because mods together with their friends got together a 'hit list' and the site owner did nothing.
People over there get a bit upset about occasional bad language.
I find CWDF's hypocrisy and cant much more offensive.
Right, I'll put my soapbox away now.

For me personally the most shocking thing on that thread was Nick defending thunderboat. He must like it here despite all his claiming otherwise.

I met another really good fella in Leeds who posts as 'midnight' over there.
He joked that the bad language and 'baiting' on here (much in the very early days) put him off thunderboat.
I know this is true of at least half a dozen others. It's their choice, and I have no complaints.
I know which site I prefer, and which is the more open and honest.

I've found that thread and read through it now, . . and I wish I hadn't. By the time I got to the end I was even cheering NickNorman/Telemachus on, . . . and that's taken the shine off my entire weekend.

I think you’ll find it was me rather than Trina involved in that thread! By the time I got round to reading it, it had already been locked ! What type of people does Mike TBM think frequent Thunderboat ? ! 😞
