    Pointless Drivel

    Doesn't it go quiet when the wabbly-squabblies get assigned to the PD bin?
    Todays debacle just goes to show that when things get out of hand both the accused and the accusers haven't a clue what integrity is. Well done Joni for putting it in File 13.

    Well.... i assume it was you :-)

    Some threads certainly struggle to stay on topic, that's for sure!

    I hear you! The printer on my truck packed up, the Eft-pos started playing up again and then the truck batteries went flat 'cause I was working locally and the onboard equipment drained them!

    I was in a position to read the full original unabridged thread when it had got to 15 pages, and I really couldn't believe it had degenerated into the slinging match it became - I had made my only post on page 1. III was doing a pretty good deed in general, many people agreed with the spirt of the thread (at least, up to P15 they did), which was to generally condemn the actions of that particular group, and to show the pub in question how we feel let down as bikers and are willing to put it right. Some people voiced different opinions, which were fair enough and all fine, but some just went overboard and made personal attacks and flung abuse. I couldn't really believe it.

    At the time I was reading it Joni and Hitcher were lurking in there as well, so I knew the abusers would get what was coming to them in the end, but it shouldn't have to come to that on KB. Having said that, the mods have my respect for the job they do here. Good work, the lot of you, for the thankless task of trying to keep this site civil.

    My thoughts exactly as a page 1 poster before I went to work in the morning.

    The topic was fair and sentiment was in the right place.

    By the time I get home (don't get to view KB at work) I was amazed at what the discussion had become. Why do people here continue to bleat on about a topic they disagree with. If you disagree its your opinion and you have the right to voice it, but there is no need to carry it on and on like we see so many times.

    Big ups to the mods, I know I would not be as patient if I had the power.
