Is everyone laying into the op because he is a member of a rival site ?
If its the one I'm thinking of they are ok blokes,if only you knew their generosity puts a lot of people
to shame ,and they don't take the piss out of my bikes and also ride most of theirs
If they are not rivals how come someone wanted advice on some specialist forks ,they were suggested this other forum,the post got deleted :roll:
I say there's plenty to go round so stop squabbling

Its not really a rival site though is it. Step back and the opening paragraph is rather daft.
After some quiet behind the scenes investigating, a certain other site has some serious issues it would appear, I have been made aware that they have isms with disability, which is quite sad really especially when previous incidents are taken into account. Generosity shouldnt be used to mask some outrageous behaviour which ended in a permanent ban despite 4th, 5th and 6th chances.
It also seems that large parts of said site are devoted to knocking other sites but one little dig back and certain members of this other site freak out big style.
What a few of us dont get is how one certain member has a small but passionate group of devotees, sort of like a deranged mini svengali Rasputin type thing.
Others and myself have only met this member once and have been instantly repelled, or, after previous incidents, PM's and private emails, at least sensed something rather worrying.
I dont see the same happening on LFGSS which is just as passionate as RB (theres a lot more swearing though)...

And to put it all into context - the missus' says ' you are all a bunch of kids!'
Right, I've been through the member list and created a spreadsheet which shows all the RB members that live in London. Those that list Camden as their location are at the top of the list.
I've cross referenced this list with a list of members that were active on the site on the night of the incident, eliminating anyone that was posting here at the time of the alleged verbal assault.
This has given me a third list of people who live in Camden/London who were not active on the site and therefore likely to be 'down the pub'.
I then created a search on the site for "worlds end" and drilled into the results to create a list of forum members who have mentioned that they drink at that pub.
By cross referencing the list of London/Camden members who were not active on the site with the list of members who have indicated that they drink at the Worlds End, I am confident that I know who the assailant was.
Rongo, you were out of order mate. Be the bigger man and apologise.

I must lead a sheltered existance, i don't even know of a bike related site thats black and orange.
Also, i can't imagine anybody getting drunk in a pub and saying anything that might offend somebody else, outragous

What's up big cheese refused membership
Nice to see you still hate people
that don't think like you
And the person you are talking about just happens to do loads of
jobs for members just for the karma like we all do

Ok, I'll bite, why not
1. for what its worth, I am already a member
2. Dont particularly hate anybody - see below
3. Dont let generosity blind you - if you had experienced what went on last year, you would probably have an entirely different opinion regardless of what others or myself think.
*and another thing, no forum or individual has been mentioned directly so for all you know you could be barking up the wrong tree. There are some big shakers and movers in the flower arranging world.
