You swine....you made me go read over there!
I am not anti C&RT in any way.
But I can see they are getting too many issues wrong, causing confusion down their own management chain, never mind the effect on boaters.
I don't believe they are an evil empire plotting against us, just confused and misguided (perhaps by solicitors on occasion).
I've continuously cruised for nine months of the last 12 years, without any personal bad experience of C&RT staff, but I can see that the enforcement situation is tightening up (twice in the last two years I've received, incorrectly, over stay texts).
But surely the point of that discussion was how others are being affected not just "I'm alright Jack".
I really think it is a big mistake by C&RT to seek to drive young families away from living aboard, rather than to seek solutions to let them stay. A bit like a sports club, get the kids involved because they are your future.
Anyway, you are a really naughty boy. Not for being banned (again) but for not bringing the discussion to here, the Premier grown up boating forum.

Have to admit I've just had a sweep through Canalworld. Nowadays it seems that Canalworld is keeping one set of people happy, Thunderboat is performing its original purpose and that's for those who want a similar kind of thing without the toothy vicars of Wales. Some have their feet in both sites. Everyone is now happy.

TBH I'm surprised I didn't get socially cleansed a few weeks back when I signed a post 'bassplayer'. Of course we should remember that a lot of us got banned, not for being naughty, but for having contrary views to the likes of Mr Fincher and co. That's when the social cleansing list got written up. Just for the record, I'm not anti CRT either. I also praise them up when they get things right. I also accept they are in a rock and hard place sometimes.

"I also accept they are in a rock and hard place sometimes." They applied for their jobs. And for those who are raking in 180,000 Pounds/year they are obviously taking the piss.

I wasn't thrown out, I walked away sick of it.
I re licensed my boat in November, and asked for paper copies posting to me as I don't have a printer.
They never arrived so I rang up licensing, and a jolly pleasant lady sorted it out for me. They arrived two days later.
Whilst on to her, I asked whether I needed a paper license displayed. She said there wouldn't be a problem if I didn't (as long as my number is displayed) and they are working towards the car tax disc situation, but that the law actually requires the display, so the 'movers and shakers' cannot progress the plan as yet.
She was very helpful, but behind the scenes seems unnecessarily confused.
Only a minor example, but the confusion seems to be endemic.

PS So were you banned just for being bassplayer, or because of your outrageous views (fancy arguing with the CW stalwarts)

So were you banned just for being bassplayer, or because of your outrageous views (fancy arguing with the CW stalwarts) The official reason by NB Lola is duplicate account with bassplayer (banned)....but who knows? The first time around was another story. There is plenty of info about the 'list' if you look through the history on CWF or here. I don't like arguing BTW, but I will speak out when I think something is wrong.

I did say 'sometimes'. They do get pressure from the likes of the NBTA and on tbe other side, the social cleansing brigade. The fact is you can't keep everyone happy all of the time.

Don't know but MtB should have been given a warning for saying they were hard of thinking. I doubt the 'report' button works on the social cleansing brigade.

Had a good nosey around there, prompted by bassplayer, and can't see I'm missing anything. It seems a bit quiet and certainly not the place I used to enjoy.
I'm happy enough here with the weidos.

And it's surely obvious by now, that if Thunderboat hadn't been made, and we hadn't had all those silly warnings, and I got 'eliminated' in July (without warning), then I'd probably still be on Canalworld, and no danger to anyone. ...oh, forgot... have just been called 'dangerous' here recently.
...steps back into the shadows....
