I don't care

**Peter Mallett** · 19 Jul 2003, 21:19 (Ref:665829)

There are lots of posts and (dare I say it) complaints that the "Gravel Trap" is closed. Why worry? We've got all these other areas to play in. And we can talk BX as we usually do, or we can be playful.

Better still why not try both?

This is our site to meet like minded individuals and kill the.......... er sorry, debate with them. Its owned and organised by Craig. We should thank him for its availability and if we really want to write BX then go to .........er um...... Well just go somewhere else then.

Mrs BlackX · 19 Jul 2003, 21:21 (Ref:665831)

Well thank you Peter for your kind words.... but maybe you haven't heard the whole story?????

**Peter Mallett** · 19 Jul 2003, 21:22 (Ref:665832)

Um.

Read the topic title.

Mrs BlackX · 19 Jul 2003, 21:23 (Ref:665835)

The dont express an opinion if you dont care!!

Stuart Hill · 19 Jul 2003, 21:23 (Ref:665836)

That's all well and good Peter, but would you expect to receive the full text from a Private Message sent to me by a Third party???? I think not.
Whilst I may applaud Craig for his efforts, his manners need some more work.

Sim_Da_BTCC_Man · 19 Jul 2003, 21:23 (Ref:665837)

Well said Peter!

Why are you causing so much work for the moderator team! Craig made the desision and we should respect that! He has a life like any other of us and we are lucky this place is hear! Dont make it any more difficult than it is for Craig and his team! We are all lucky to have them and the forum!

The gravel trap is a forum for lords sake! Your not loosing an arm! Your creating far to much work for people who spend all their time reading our rubbish to make sure you all have a good time here!

They all have lives and they all want to be pleasent so dont act stupid!

Manners? you used the words Manners and Craig in the same senrence? Surely you must realise that anybody who is willing to start something like 10/10 can't have a human bone in his body?

Or do we just come here to abuse his hospitality? Take your problem up with the person in question. Don't wash dirty linnen in public for the sake of it.

BTW. You may not have caught the "humour" i my posts.

We did..................They kept being censored or closed alltogether

Chris Y · 19 Jul 2003, 21:29 (Ref:665847)

And before you beat on about 'free speech' and 'human rights' - they have nothing to do with this site. This site and the server it runs on, costs money to maintain. It's Craig's site, and he (and the rest of the moderating team) have the final say on what stays and what gets pulled.

If you want truly free speech, set up your own forum.

It is being done in public as our pm's seem to be made so anyway

Maybe you should have started them somewhere other than a forum meant for marshaling topics? Or directed your complaints to the email address specified in the announcement? Or taken such a confrontational tone?

Just me 2c.

blackx · 19 Jul 2003, 21:31 (Ref:665851)

So PM stands for PUBLIC MESSAGE not PRIVATE MESSAGE.......

DOH !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Silly me

I love it when a plan comes together.

O the other hand let's just smile and thankl goodness we can at least communicate about our favourite subject. For me its baby oil and blondes.......... oops wrong forum.

There is a contact point listed below – please use that to express your opinions and do not flood the forum with complaints, as these will be removed and you will not force me to change my decision anyway!

I have some thoughts for the future, where should I send them?

Your opinion DOES matter a great deal to me and I am more than happy to listen your constructive suggestions for the format of the new forum. Please email me at graveltrap@ten-tenths.com if you wish to have your voice heard. All comments and suggestions WILL be read but, as I’m sure there’ll be many, a personal response is not guaranteed.

Can you possibly explain which part of Craig's post reproduced above is difficult to understand? My reading of it is that he welcomes opinions on three separate occasions. Just not in the public forum, that's all.

Maybe it's just me being stupid or something, I dunno.

Any idea's on how we do this????

Chris Y · 19 Jul 2003, 21:35 (Ref:665860)

I think there's a forum somewhere to help you set up a forum. Try www.google.co.uk

Mrs BlackX · 19 Jul 2003, 21:35 (Ref:665862)

TimD... The whole thing started from a question not a complaint.... Thats why we are so annoyed about it....

We were censored before getting any sort of resonable explination

**Peter Mallett** · 19 Jul 2003, 21:36 (Ref:665863)

Well if Craig could do it surely anybody higher up the evolutionary scale than say a melon, could do it.

(Think about that before responding)

Maisie · 19 Jul 2003, 21:36 (Ref:665864)

You were "censored" because you were in the wrong place, and going through the wrong channels, and ... hang on a minute, have you even POSTED in the Gravel Trap, and if not, why do you care??

Chris Y · 19 Jul 2003, 21:36 (Ref:665865)

You're supposed to address the question to Craig. Privately. That's why your posts were pulled, because Craig said he would, in his big announcement. If you'd read that first, it might have answered your question before you asked it.
