Again, it is just a viewpoint and I believe these forums are available to allow us to express them (within reason of course).

You have expressed it, eight times in fact.

Quite true and there's a reason for that. There is still inconsistency occurring.

From what has occurred today, it appears to be personal bias, as some posters have ingrained themselves to become above the law.

As I have not the faintest idea to what you are referring, could you please explain?

Well why mention it then? Unless people were part of whatever it was, it seems like a waste of time to just make a point that no one but you understands.

You sure about that? There are those fully aware but in their blindness are failing to act due to personal bias.

Personal knowledge has been used to attack other posters yet actions are taken to protect that poster.

You yourself are aware of that personal knowledge from your private forum so is a current Mod. That poster continues to attack yet others are modded.

Again duplicity and inconsistency. If you and others want the proof, I am perfectly willing to provide it in an amicable and reasonable post, however, that will require admin and mod agreement.

I would not be all surprised if that is one of the reasons why Gary left.

Personally as I'm pressurised by the law firm to proceed, I am considering allowing them to send by registered post a cease and desist letter and also an invoice to recover legal costs to date.

To be quite frank, I don't want to travel that road, but I'm buggered if I will allow those personal attacks to continue on the Internet especially as the more recent ones are still on display.

What I'm wondering is why you haven't bothered to write me about your concerns? Why carry on here in a manner that would get you modded, but I've always maintained that my email is open to all?

If you feel there's an inconsistency, I'd like to hear about it and address it.

Hmm, sounds like something needs sorting.

The last thing I wanted when I started this thread was for it to become a source of strife amongst the local fauna.

Should the mods or even Fred him/herself decide to close and even hide it, I would not object.

Sorry Fred my apologies I've tried numerous times but it seems my e-mails are not getting through. Any help would be appreciated as these attacks are getting too personal and the poster in question looks like being protected.

Thanks for the reminder Fred, appreciated.

Sam, my apologies for taking your thread way off topic.

Please accept my apologies Sam, I didn't mean to contribute to dragging your thread further off topic.
