There are probably old people here too who don't drive with their face to the window and very slowly. It was purely my perception I was talking about. I did not post a rant about 4 X 4s.
Sorry if you took it to seriously but it was meant as a light hearted post.

I know what your saying bob, the reality is 'controversy sells'

as a 4x4 owner, I get a lot of abuse, so I have taken your comment in that vein.
I apologise If I came on strong with my retort, I get annoyed with it genuiney

that sounds about right bob, they dont give a monkeys really do they, look how happy we all are when there is a blog, they must be laughing their socks off!

if they cared they would do what other sites do and have moderators that mingle with the rest of us, as soon as abuse starts that person is banned instantly by the moderator

I'm quite new to Chatterbank and I am surprised that so many people get aggressive with each other over trivial things.
Guess it's all down to a clash of personalities (good job I haven't got one eh bob?) :o)

I suppose if you all moan long and often enough, you will get the moderators you so desire.
If you want some moron censoring your comments that's fine, but why foist it on everyone else?
The jobsworths will have a field day and eventually kill the site off, say nothing and offend no one!
Whatever happened to freedom of speech?
I hope you'll all be happy in your new little sanitised world!

I read on a thread the other day, Chatterbank was once taken off due to ........ erm ......... heated discussions between ABers.
I'd say: More humour, less aggression! :o)

Chappie, I wasn't a member when the old chatterbank was removed, so can't comment.
It's a rich tapestry on here, the rows and aggression are a very small part of Answerbank, you either take part or ignore.
Rather than constantly criticising the editorial team, they should be congratulated for treating us all as adults and not children, as a lot on here would seem to prefer.

Totally agree with you, Newsdesk.
It's a point I have made several times. On any public forum there will be a mixture of personalities, and if we were all like-minded, discussions would soon fade away!
Just a thought ..... re your comment about us being treated like adults, not like children. Reading through a lot of posts on here, you'd be forgiven for thinking we are children!
