The state of so-called "Official Forums"

[Bring Back The Cavaliers]

I'm glad there are well-policed friendly forums like these. The official Toca board is closed because of immature people posting.

oh dear. Not the sort of thing we want to see.

There's always someone who wants to ruin a good thing.

Did you see what was happening?

[touringlegend]

Besides immature people posting, the last post is the first and the first is last which makes everything very confusing.

I don't know exactly what went on Les, someone taking a dislike to another member i think. It was closed for a good half an hour anyway. It really needs to be policed like these forums. There's only 3 or 4 users who post regularly, and tonight they indulged in a thread to up their post counts by posting drivel, including attacking Johan from btcctimes.

im not trying to have a go but most of the people that use this forum have joined the other(i hope were on about tocatour)and i find that there is more being posted there than there is here.i do honestly prefer to use this forum but if there is more going on else where,why not join in wif it.

Don't think we want to get into who said what to whom and who did or didn't start it. The admins there have dealt with the problem as they see fit, let's not have it spill over into here.

To be honest it was probably only a matter of time before something like this happened as the board had been attacting more and more off topic, pointless or just downright stupid posts.

We've been very lucky at 10-tenths in that there are enough hard-working admins and moderators to stop things getting out of hand and keep this as the 'friendly forums'. Let keep it that way.
