Are you on about this again? Yes of course, the evil empire stripped
you of your super powers. For goodness sake David grow up. Also, this is the first I have heard about any malfunctions. For anyone who needs to know. I am the Admin of this Forum. Feel free to PM me with any technical issues and I will look into it. Very little was "messed with" when DAVE left to deal with his life challenges. My personal opinion is the Club has way more pressing issues to deal with than these. But I am always available. Dawg (shaking his head)

Email doesn't work because the component that sends emails doesn't work on the new server. It's old. The site hasn't been sending emails for a while now. Damien, I appreciate you are the admin of the forum but this particular problem falls outside of the forum and is a server item.
With that, I have to say that I hate the politics that go on in this club. There seems to be a real divide and a lot of members backed off, some left (including me), when one particular person became very aggressive and rude to many. Sadly, nothing has changed for that person and it shows in this thread alone. While I can see that Dave feels like something happened to kick him out, perhaps with politics involved, I don't believe telling him to "grow up" is appropriate at all. There very much is reason to believe that politics got involved as this club is obviously struggling to maintain due to it. For whatever it is worth, I never would have joined without having met Dave, he was the glue that kept the club together as tight as it was and kept it going so well. I wish the best for the next person who is going to take that heavy role on, but I would very much expect 1000% respect for Dave as this club wouldn't even exist without him. I can't imagine anybody thinking any different. I do not believe the club has any more pressing issue than dealing with the politics actually. Membership is dwindling because of it, without membership, you don't have a club. In conclusion, I think it'll be best to start moving the whole site to a server that Damien and/or Colby manage. It might work well as they seem to have the time and desire to take on that responsibility. I'm totally cool with that and can assist in getting the files over whenever that may happen. Domain registration and management is still Dave, I have no control over that. I've been on the fence for a while but I think I'm out now, I don't feel the club will be back to where I wish it would be and in turn I choose to stop supporting it with free hosting and tech support. I do very much wish the best to all still involved though and I'll be watching from the sidelines here and there to see how things come along. Edited by Graeme |

Hello Graeme.
A well written message and fair I think. On some issues noted however is it posible you are hearing one side of the story? Thank you for all the good years of faithful support. Harrison, you have been trying to get the three of us together for a while now. Maybe we should make it a priority this coming weekend. Saturday is the best day for me. Glen, chime in here buddy. What day is best for you? I will keep my schedule as open as I can so we can talkabout these challenges before us. Graeme, maybe you could email me the transferring proceedure so I can prepare accordingly. Dawg |

Nice to see all the petty bullsh*t that inspired me to
leave years ago hasn't changed even remotely. I don't know who offended who, and who caused what, and frankly I don't care. But for god's sake, can we at least pretend to act like civilised adults? The originator of the club being told off by the current admin of the club is a surefire to drive this in to the ground. I was 21 in a club for off mid-engined two-seaters, with a significant group of people and often-times a penchant for going fast (And an acceptance for people doing whatever speed they felt comfortable with). If you had asked me when I first joined this club, I would've ecstatically informed you I was going to be a WCF lifer. And then came the poison of all this useless gossip. People whining about 'X'. People telling off 'Y'. Everyone's discussing location, and cost, and events, and everything else to try and save this club. You want a simpler, quicker, easier method of preserving this place? Before you decide to bitch at someone, or complain about every god damn thing you see, sit and HONESTLY consider if it's useful in the slightest. If it isn't, grow a pair and keep it to yourself. I've finally hit that acme where I couldn't really care less if the club lives or folds. I like everyone here, and will likely stay in contact with several either way, but it would be nice if people could set aside their irrelevant nonsense so we could all enjoy eachothers' company.

I am now getting a increased sense of something I was
obviously missing. I have always believed and still do that if it wasn't for David this club wouldn't have gotten to where it did, however some underwear seems to be getting knotted and it needs to get washed and hung out to dry. Please feel free to private message me with your insights as I would like to resolve this for the betterment of the club. Regards Glenn PS Graeme please get in touch with me |
