766272 2009-04-19 06:04:00 Possibly not. It may have been better to give the people who pass personal comments a bit of time out.

But then PressF1 is not a democracy as such is it.

766274 2009-04-19 06:07:00 I agree, it is unfair. However, there have been numerous complaints over the last few days about that thread asking for it to be closed, so we take that into account as well.

Unfortunately we have a select few people who take bickering to a new level and never know when to let it rest or walk away. Then they complain they weren't doing anything wrong, so why pick on them. It is a no-win situation.:rolleyes:

Perhaps we should be tougher and just ban them for ruining the thread for other people. Man, I can hear the screams from them already ...

766276 2009-04-19 06:12:00 It may have been better to give the people who pass personal comments a bit of time out.I have decided to change my decision and I have given the two main offenders 24 hours off the forum.


Its easy to reopen a closed threadI'm going to reopen that thread and see what happens. If similar behaviour re-occurs, then the thread will be closed again.

766278 2009-04-19 06:46:00 If it was me, I would've been banned the day before yesterday, twice. :annoyed: --Wolf-- (128)
766279 2009-04-19 06:48:00 Thanks Jen, this forum may not be a democracy but you always provide evidence that there can be a benevolent dictator.

And for tuiruru, its the Tony Veitch thread.
