There do seem to be some very childish threads about it though.
Posters from both fora seem to think that something of significance took place.

One that had nothing to do with the discussion, one started by a commuter trying to sh1t stir (and failing, even with my help) and one spill over of the original
All three started by commuters and roundly ignored by everyone there - try harder DDD

Er... your response; an example of not being able to admit that you're wrong, I think.
Recap: You said there wasn't "a peep" about the subject in Cake Stop. I posted three examples of threads created in Cake Stop (of whch one you also participated in) that contain references to or are about in their entirity 'the subject'.
You now post some semantic bullshit about trying to back track or ammend the original assertion. Not a good look, I think.
Anyway.... :roll:Food Chain number = 4

There is no discussion of this on the front, or even second page of (my) CS, wheras this has been top 5 in commuting chat all week - Deal with it boys, no one cares.

As you've came to realise,both areas have their own threads with the quote. Yet the discussion is all here,must mean DDD was shit stirring too?ddraver wrote:T.M.H.N.E.T wrote:

I dunno which Cake Stop you're looking at, but as far as I can see, there is quite a bit of venom in Cake Stop being directed towards here. Quite how that fits in with the "now the "girls in" threads are gone, all you Commuting Chat lot will no doubt be posting in Cake Stop" is a bit unclear.
For a group that claims to have "won", they seem to have a lot of anger to work through...0 -
Just read through all of this mess after having a 6 month hiatus from the forums. It all seems a bit sad, one idiot stirring things up when he knows the net will jump all over it, inflate it and now we have major change. Then lots of lackeys seem to jump on the righteous wagon and claim a win, hee hee have a look at yourselves, you're rubbish.0

Don't make me have to come over there and speak harshly to you people again....
Nice summary though.
Apart from the 'major change' bit. Nothing's really changed 'cept the standard internet gambit of making a new forum.“New York has the haircuts, London has the trousers, but Belfast has the reason!0 -
Holy thread resurrection!
I thought the last couple of days had a groundhog day feel to it.
One of the few times I was right.
None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.0 -

How's Cake Stop doing on the score sheet?
Oh yes. I remember now.
Eviscerated. Disemboweled. Left to bleed to death.
You really rocked to a win on that one, that's for sure.
And we all celebrated your win by herding the die hard Cakers into a new home. Where they could be happy together. And be seen and not heard.
It was a happier time, don't you think?0 -

Seems the embers of discontent glow in the night......Greg66triv20 has got his wetsuit in a twist because of Bottom bracket spilling out into other areas. He thinks he is King Poo of Plop mountain, but the more he victor matures the more we will endure his ordure. Someone ressurected a thread which was very similar to what has happened over the last couple of days, seems some people wont let things lie, ho-hum.

Ah I see.
Seeing as I was one of the more vocal (and female) complainants of the "Girls In..." threads, I'm probably best not even commenting, but what the hell.
I do actually feel that Bottom Bracket should stay - because it keeps the nipple count down off the rest of the site. I used to go in Cake Stop, but stopped because it got so lairy, and it shouldn't be a men-only site - that's what 99% of the rest of the internet is for, isn't it?
.
After it all blew over I stopped going in CS because I'd argued with a few guys who were incredibly misogenistic (one, to the point of PMing me and telling me I should just "go off and get myself r@ped"). It got rather nasty, and what I will say in defence of Greg, and a few others, is that he stood up for me in the thread, which very few did. I got a lot of supportive PMs (and some apologies) from guys who were a little spineless to be honest, in that they PMed rather than posting on the site, but only a few actually said on the thread "hey, this has gone a bit too far". CS is no longer a welcoming place for a girl, (and I can hold my own!) which is a shame as it used to be quite fun before it got really pervy and sexist.
I'm a girl and I work for British Cycling. I work with BMXers, Cyclocrossers, racers, hybrid riders, Bromptonites, Cyclespeedwayers, MTBers, commuters, as well as all the elite/pro lot downstairs. We all love riding bikes. We all get along. I just don't know why we can't get along on here.Commute: Chadderton - Sportcity0 -

msmancunia, I'm really sorry to hear that, hopefully you reported that, as there is not one any of the Mod/Admin team would have tolerated that.
I think CS has improved because of BB and would hope that you feel comfortable again to visit there, if ever anything like that happens again, please feel free to contact me and I will do my very best to take action against such person/s.0 -

Funnily enough, that thought (that you, not me, should be a mod) has crossed my mind too. Small world.0
