spursboy61 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Sorry to see you go Steve. I can see where you're coming from. I have my own thoughts about the Jade Goody news, but rather than provoke debate, I keep them to myself. Happy caravanning. Pop in now and again as a guest so you can keep in touch with the more fair minded of us. Regards, Mikey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest John KS Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 (edited) I can't see why you feel you have to leave Steve. You put up a news item which was bound to be contraversial. I have to admit I can't see what it has to do with caravanning. We have all been exposed to it on the news as the first item!!!!!!! No point in throwing your toys out of the pram though!!!! This is still one of the best forums. Edited March 22, 2009 by John KS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy B Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 . ..... I have to admit I can't see what it has to do with caravanning. ....... As said, sod all to do with caravaning, but it'd be a very boring world if we weren't allowed to discuss owt but caravaning here . ... surely that is was the 'social club ' is for! :huh: There are far too many here who have a very narrow mind when it comes to other points of view. They deem that they are right so everyone else has to be wrong ie handbrakes and jockey wheels.

Guest Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 (edited) I just can't see what this all about, it obvious that every individual has their own opinion of life and the right to express it. at the end of the day that is what a forum is all about.

Lee E Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I dont know what has went on either but please tradetec dont go!!!! If you have an issue with certain members then block em. If they are truely the 'narrown minded idiots' you refer to then everyone will eventually block them and they will leave. Otherwise it might just be a question of personality differences????? Think about it be fore you leave. regards Lee Quote Please note that my opinions stated are those of an enthusiast not an expert and humble at that 2006 Hyundai Sante Fe towing a Coachman Vision 580/5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Surfer Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Tradetech has always been helpful but I am a litle surprised that he did not contact Admin direct with the request as he has all their contact details instead of posting it on an open forum. Yes I would like him to re-consider as the incident to which he refers was extremely minor in the big picture and the poster was posting what some of us may have thought but did not voice. We are all entitled to our own opinions whether right or wrong and some of us may throw tantrums when others do n ot agree but that is all part of life, a life that we should be thankful we still have unlike others.

ian dunning Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Hi, I also know of one other helpful member that messaged me, a couple of weeks ago, to say he was giving up on this Forum due to the attitude of some members. I won't name him as he didn't want any fuss but he's a loss because he was also very knowledgeable, Regards, Ian.

ian dunning Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 I too have had a similar situation with a very knowledgeable member messaging me to say exactly the same. The trouble is, its not just threads that look as if they may be controversial that end up in slanging matches! Time for some people to grow up, I think, and consider the feelings of others in articulating their responses - its often the way a thing is written that causes offence and just a little more thought would remedy the situation. Everybody is entitled to a point of view - and everybody is entitled to be treated with respect. That is sadly lacking on this forum on many occasions. Hi Chris, I wonder if people would be so quick to insult/be so aggresive if they were talking face to face? I doubt it, Regards, Ian.

You can say what you feel but it can nearly always be worded in a way to avoid offense to others. It has happened to me a couple of times. I usually give as good as I get but if it looks like it is getting too personal I block them - problem solved.

rustygates Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Hi all, I can honestly say since I have joined this forum some 4yrs ago, there has been the rare occasion that the odd sniper has come out of the woodwork to try and upset individual members,like those who make spelling mistakes or those who ask basic caravanning questions " that everyone should know" but these snipers don't usually last long and move one to other forums to cause trouble on any subject, but losing a good person bothers me more, even if I've never met "Tradetech", his knowledge is invaluable to some of us, dont let them beat you, I'm sure you would not let a competitor do it. PS. I do apologise for any grammer or spelling misakes. rustygates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin63 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 It's a real shame if Tradetech decides not to participate anymore. I agree, that there is a certain amount of 'hiding behind computers' syndrome on the forum these days, along with one or two aggressive members, who seem hell bent on lighting fireworks and then retiring to watch them develop. ............... Nil Desperandum and all that. ................ I hope Steve reconsiders.
