[Steve H]

Jules, yes I have removed your posting if you have a problem with this PM me through the forum

[jules]

Well GOD Ive PM'd you as suggested and I'm still waiting,whats going on!,its beyond a joke now,
what the fuck was wrong with my last post? ,no bad language,no pictures of pussy,
only a slight piss take  of the Dutch non campers and i mean slight,with no offence intended,
i take it from now on we have to be uber sensitive toward the non campers and car users who turn up to a  bike  rally in there cars and ask where the nearest hotel is,and can i just say to any members who have ever done this I'm very sorry ,i didn't mean to hurt your feelings........much.

Can I just point out that the Annual Rally isn't intended to be a camping event as such. The main focus of the rally is to bring people together, have a laugh and wear silly hats. The camping is important because it's the most cost-effective form of accommodation for a lot of people, but all attendees are welcome to choose a B&B or hotel if they prefer.

The first two rallies were based at a bunkhouse near Abergavenny and only about five or six people camped out (they were Dutch as it happens).

Cheers

Better than worm wee?

So what's the silly hat theme going to be this year GC? Perhaps (what with the hen's s**t, pig's s**t and worm wee) a gardening/farming theme might suffice, whad'ya think?

I'm sorry you took it that way. I didn't have site of the original posting so I didn't know what the content was. I assumed that it was in the vein of your postings concerning the Llanthony meet. I was just making the point that whereas some of our meets (such as Llanthony) are very much camping events (oooerr  ) others are not. As such any negative response to a rallygoer choosing not to camp seems misplaced.

Steve has a difficult job to do as moderator and people will always take issue with their posts being pulled (me included at times), but one of the conditions of using this forum is that we accept his decisions. It doesn't mean we have to always like his decisions, but we know that he's doing what he thinks is right. Which is a very good thing.

All this is imho of course

Just my two pennies worth, and bearing in mind I don't know what was contained in Jules' posting, but aren't we getting a little too PC nowadays??

Foul abuse, racial remarks, explicit sexual content - yes. Get it off the forum. But a bit of micky taking, inuendo and the odd saucey photo - come on. I know kids sometimes view the site and I understand no one want's anybody to leave the club as a result of a comment, but aren't we a little bit better than this?

I know from my own point of view that I consider this to be a 'bike club forum' and as such I expect there to be some content which I wouldn't want to view in work say (employed as I am by the Police) or might not be siutable for my 10 year old, but that doesn't mean we should all speak like a Nun is in the room.

As for offending others, surely we're all mates enough (and big enough) to stand up and say"Io! Leave it out!" for ourselves?? (or go away and sulk for a week )

Like I say, I don't know what was typed, and I appreciate all the work you do SteveH, but let's not sanitise the site cleaner than a WI cake stall. I mean, I want to be able to Fart while I read without feeling guilty.

I agree with your sentiment, but I have to say that for the six or so years that this forum has been running, Steve has always struck a sensible balance. The site has always included plenty of mickey-taking and innuendo... and long may it do so.

Hen s*&t is a lot more difficult to pour over yourself than worm wee .

Isn't it Jethro ?
