A new chance for banned members.

** Takes cape off and stashes it before anyone notices**

Yeah what Iain said.

Welcome back Ratch.

[fuzzy]

Wielding such instant power must be a heady experience indeed! I would wear a cape whenever logged in on the zone if I were a mod.

But I'm not a mod alas, so I'll stick with the scuba flippers for now.

Cheers pal!

just in time. im sure you must have been running out of ideas for aliases by now.

[Kos]

^^do you work for the UN? or perhaps a marriage guidance councillor?

bitch

[fuzzy]

its what i do best.

[Royalratch]

Good to see that the zone is big enough to welcome back previously banned members,trust that all concerned will play/post by the same rules that the rest of us keep to.
Our common interest,afterall,is in using and maintaining/restoring elderly cars,not sniping and scoring points off those less articulate than ourselves.

Isn't that called 'The Banter?'

[Dave_M3]

Welcome back Kos!

Feck sake, you got me thinking of modifying my 318iS from seeing your old one and now I'm building a M52 and here you are talking about how your doing yours, lol.

my m52 is in an e36 Compact lol

you doing a 6sp conversion or is that some one else ??

Don't worry... one of my mates have a crazy M3 compact drift car that we built in less than 2 weeks has made be become rather fond of them even though I hated them before


Yeah, just finished the 6 speed conversion on my iS.
Was easy enough really with BMW having all these kinda swaps in mind when desiging castings or just being plain lazy and cutting costs

[Kos]

is that the blue one, there were a couple of pics in one of the BMW mags about it, i think TBMW.

as for the 6sp conversion, fail play mate. make the car any better? i dont think it was bmw cutting cost as they thought it would be funny to change diff flange sizes for some reason which made the diff swop on my compact a touch interesting. there was no need for them to down size !!

[Bally]

Good to see some of the characters back, I know he left and did not get a ban you dont suppose tigger (Stevetigger) will sign on do you , leaset the zone gold will grow now,
Kos still got to fit the dial gauge I got off you , how is dips has he got a yard yet I need some work done,

[Kos]

i'll drop steve tigger a pm as he's on the e36 coupe forum...

dips if cool, give him a call but he's bloody busy at the moment and working a lot of hours

[e30bmlover]

[d6dph]

Steve Tigger was at pod on the saturday evening, I was most astonished as I didn't think he existed!

We tried to talk him into returning but only time will tell.

[pacerpete]

Free the 'Tigger three' . I am not too bothered about Steve but his wife and daughter sounded promising !


Welcome back Ratch and Kos, let the abuse, sorry , banter begin !

[fuzzy]

why the sudden change of heart over previously banned members? some of the official statements the last time this subject was mentioned seemed pretty definite.

[blitz877]

nice to see some old faces return

[Royalratch]

Because they were sick of you having no competition Fuzz.

Now you'll be rightfully put back in your place as 3rd most abrasive zoner, which frankly is a generous ranking.

You would have placed higher but your Scottish background inherently makes you mean and moody so that natural advantage has been taken into account.

If you were the way you are and from Somerset, you may have made it to 1st place.

here we go again!

Fuzz knows I'm kidding.

Though Freud did say, 'There are no jokes...'

[gcs325i]

why the sudden change of heart over previously banned members? some of the official statements the last time this subject was mentioned seemed pretty definite.

My guess would be that the mods want a bit more unofficial moderation done on the countless pish threads that arise by allowing the more outspoken members back to put those members in their place . That or they are bored of banning Ratch's various user-names.

What ever the reason welcome back to the old members who have done some great work on projects while they have been away.

[fuzzy]

i wouldnt have it any other way.it has been rather boring of late with all the fence sitting diplomats

whos first and second now then? surely you dont rate yourself that highly? i dont consider myself so bad. perhaps an abrasive rating of 80 grit.

You've never been to Chard or Bridgewater then!

[Kedge]

Come on, you know what the real reason is, they realised that all this 'over moderation, banning' and 'political correctness' malarky has sent the place downhill, what better way to liven up the forum and ward off the scummer types at the same time!

Oh god zayyan, I hope he doesn't come back. What a waste of time, the amount of zoners he messed around through him buying parts. I think I spoke to you (Dips) and Kos about him a while back.

I'm very pleased Kos and Ratch are back.

[Kos]

Come on, you know what the real reason is, they realised that all this 'over moderation, banning' and 'political correctness' malarky has sent the place downhill, what better way to liven up the forum and ward off the scummer types at the same time!

but not open for discussion because its simply not worth it and not existant any more

[blingsta]
