    Well I've read the last 3 pages if this thread I started and to be fair 'nick' seems the most descent out of all you idiots. He may talk a little bullshit here and there but you guys just keep feeding him and taking the p!ss out of him. He answer all your questions politely and yet you just keep picking on/feeding him.

    For the record, 'Nick' is a persistent troll who has now (he was banned again today) been banned from these forums ten times - that's TEN times - since the middle of last year. The reasons for his bans vary from offering dangerous and inaccurate technical advice, to personal abuse and threats of litigation and violence. He is also well known on other forums (like Petrolheads) as a serial liar and fantasist. I don't think it's unreasonable, on that basis, for a few of us to be thoroughly fed-up with him and his repeated trolling.

    But if you like him, that's great.

    my main problem with nick is that he parked his cr2ppy supermarket bike on a war memorial, took pictures and doesn't give a sh4t. massively disrespectful.

    apart from that its just a constant deluge of verbal diarrhoea as yer man above has said.

    oh - and per his post above - he's homophobic. nice traits.

    My recent post about doing something other than slagging each other off on this forum was aimed at anyone who doesn't speak to others on here in the same manner they would down the pub or in the office. I won't name names but you know if I'm speaking about you.

    Time after time I see insults and people ridiculing each other. It isn't just me with this view, others have mentioned it time and time again.

    As Bongo has mentioned, the atmosphere among some is pretty quick at alienating newcomers and longer-term members to find another forum or not post.

    Forums are intrinsically based around differences of opinion/discussion/assistance/advice. They should not be disrespectful. I have had people lend me tools and send me motorbike parts across the Atlantic for free on others forums so the atmosphere on here saddens me tbh.

    If you've not got anything positive or helpful to say, and you cannot be bothered to voice your opinion in a respectful manner then go and do something else. Please see my previous post on this thread for some suggestions!

    of we ridicule each other. they are british, we are italian. although they are jealous of us for being so good looking generally the brits do tend to ridicule each other - its normal and very healthy. its why they didn't vote in trump.

    without ridicule life would be boring.

    That's quite a negative post there. If you haven't got anything positive to say, etc and so on.

    Quite right Kingston. Also he's preachy which apart from misplaced arrogance is also seriously dull.

    I fear they may find this impossible, as they’d require mates, bikes, women ( men more likely ) who were willing, and I’m fairly sure their families hate them too.

    Wow are you suppressing something?
