From the title I thought this might have been a thread about the bailiffs coming 'round for that 196inch plasma screen your missus bought on-the-knock for Christmas. Couldn't agree more though, the zone is as cool as the car for which it has been established.

I concur, there is something about the place, for all the time I have been on here, I have only been driving an E30 for about 9 months (old tech2), not driven any E30 for 3 years

I don't get it. The mods need months to "discuss" that BNP thread, but seem awfully quick in deciding to lock a whole bunch of far less risqué threads that have come up over the last few days.

Care to elaborate rather than making vague comments?
I'm guessing it's about the threads I have locked this evening.

I don't ever recall having to make an official report to 29930+ members about every decison we may make individually or as a team, nor so i see why we should.
I think the very answer which you seek about that thread in particular is answered in full by the clear fact that it was not reinstated.
If you have any particular issues about the way in which the for sale threads (none of which are yours i amy add) have been dealt with recentley then please PM me for further discussion as it seems there is just no pleasing some people.

. You guys do a difficult job and sometimes have to make difficult decisions. You also let some go a bit further than they should purely for the entertainment factor for the rest of us. As Billy says:

It's in at the moment having a new compressor. It got me home okay and actually shut up by the time I got home. Must have been the drastic drop in external temp when you get out to my manor. Checked it for play again in the morning and it was well and truly shagged. Got an 08 astra on hire at the mo.

Seem to remember that it was Dale Carnige who wrote...'You cannot please all of the people all of the time,you are doing well to please some of the people most of the time.'

mods do a thankless job,mostly pretty well.

I have only been on the Zone for a short while but I have to say I'm already hooked! I've found it both entertaining and informative and there are some really generous, genuine people on here.
Considering how long I've been a fan of the E30 and glued to a computer I'm quite surprised that I haven't discovered this before but there you go!!
So cheers

from me for making this Zone what it is and I look forward to remaining a member and possibly meeting some of you folk one day!!

Your site, your rules, live with it! If I do something which the mods don't like, then I probably did something wrong. Anyway, Thanks mods!

Thanks for letting me try your new virgin tools out anyway. It was worth a try.
