John, if you are going to delete posts, and lock threads, at least have the decency to either remove the whole thread, or let those of us who have been long-term members of both forums defend lfgss against insinuations etc.
I don't want to reignite a flame-war, but I strenuously object to being described as:
"arrogant, rude, up themselves shister"
without being given the opportunity to respond.
Either delete the whole thread, and this one, or re-open it, so some of the 10 000 LFGSS members who are not arrogant, rude & up-themselves can have the opportunity to respond to this grotesque slander of our community.

I am still unclear as to what the carbon whore meant by shister, this needs clarification.0
-
Though Bill probably is a shister.0
-
what's a shister?0
-
Probably a mumbled insult0
-
Nah, I reckon it has something to do with ladies clothing.0
-
Whatever it is, Bill has been around long enough to have probably done whatever is required to make him one.0

Hadn't 'shister' already been defined as Sean Connery's sister?- - - - - - - - - -

Good shout Bill. The real spirit of LFGSS is perfectly embodied in threads like this, and its simply not fair to lump everyone on it into a single sweeping, insulting category just because the somebody had a bad (but not entirely unexpected) first experience. Relax and contribute to some other threads or (dareIsayit) come to a ride or social event and I guarantee those misgivings will evaporate.0

I have popped over to have a look at the LFGSS forum, and to be fair seems quite a funny crowd, and I had a good few laughs looking at the threads. I think its one of those places you will either know how to take, or not!
Infact, isnt it quite "arrogant, rude, up yorself" to start a thread slating another forums members?

I wondered exactly how many of the LFGSS community that covers, and how he knows: so I thought I'd sign up and take a look.Buffalo Bill wrote:...so some of the 10 000 LFGSS members who are not arrogant, rude & up-themselves can have the opportunity to respond to this grotesque slander of our community.

It was perhaps a sweeping generalisation on my part & I am not too proud to admit I over reacted to the posts.
However, I stand by my statement that SOME of the guys over there are all/some of the things I said, not ALL of them, in fact, most likely it;'s a minority of them.2012 Cannondale Synapse0 -
