I stalked my new local club on S'net for months before moving, laughed till I cried at some of the **** taking....
I almost felt that I knew people were o.k. before I met them.
Have to say the Wyioc have had issues, but it's about the people not just the cars. First time you will feel isolated, but as said before dive in with both feet and chat to the peeps.
You can't expect to get on with everyone in life, so avoid the friction and keep positive.
IMHO

I am new to Scoobys and the forum and if anything I felt the opposite at first. (Nothing to do with Surrey Scoobys just my feeling from some on here)
I have a MY97 STI and as you know classics can be had for very little money at the moment. Some comments have been, Scoobys are now chav machines because of the price etc etc.
Well I can’t afford a new age car, I am not a chav and to be honest wouldn't want a new age car anyway I like the classics.
Before I joined when reading some posts I felt like I would not be welcome here because of it. But most of you have been very welcoming and helpful
Give them a chance.

So if the people that think there chav cars had any idea of the running costs,i guess they would reavaluate.
Good to hear your enjoying scoob ownership and best wishes

Just a thought.....
May I respectfully suggest that instead of you all launching an all out slagging match directed at JP4's post.... that you actually find out WHY he feels that way, in a calm and mature manner.... as if not you're actually coming across in the way he described, and I'm sure that's not in the true spirit of your club

I think the above post is one of the few who has bothered to say something sensible. ofcourse, it's hardly surprising that the SS have come out in numbers! Why did it take this for you all to wake up?
In my first post did I actually say that anyone was jealous of my wr1? So to those who assumed well
. May I say you need to learn to read, digest then respond! There are those owners who own new age that do feel that often certain classic owners don't wave to them so please lets not pretend that all is happy. This does not however apply to all!
Anger - i understood you are banned or atleast got banned recently from SS? Any reasons why?? That's all I have to say you ****!
Besides you have a cheek considering not long ago you were slagging of Scoobynet! You like to dish it but obviously cannot accept when tables are turned onto you.Ratboy - appreciate your second post - seems like you can think, as i said above, people should try and read better of what is being posted up. Sorry but it is not my fault if I found members of SS rather clicky?

Scoobs are like many other cars.....BMW's,Jag's,Merc's....dirt cheap to buy but very expensive to fix,and mod.
So if the people that think there chav cars had any idea of the running costs,i guess they would reavaluate.

WellI have had to put new pads and discs on it (due to a front calliper seizing cracking a disc first time I hit them very hard
) and now it needs a Knock sensor (I washed under the bonnet and the sensor had a crack in the casing ) and I am more Pis**d off that I cant use it not the cost to repair it 
But it still looks nice sat on the drive
and I now have more time to clean it properly

when was anger banned then matey?
as your telling people to get their facts straight, think you'd better live up to the billing.
also, if you've got a problem with the way the club is being handled then why not post on the forum concerned? or at least inform a moderator/admin/site owner of your concerns.

I called this site scabbynet what im not alone in saying because of the trolls
As im in Norbury everyday the next time i see your WR1 parked in Rowan road i'll park next to it and bib a few times and you can come out and say hi
Ive been in the scooby scene for 6 years now and your the only one i can say that seams to have a problem with me just because i wouldnt come for a drink with you
Surreyscoobies has over 400 members and averages 40+ scoobies at most meets even in the winter, if you came to a meet you would see that we all get on
Im not being funny but im not just gonna come and meet you because you have a scoob
Thats all im saying on this thread

Wilcoca - you show your intelligence (or lack of) by the words and exclamation marks used in your responses.

Look at the messages you sent to Chris on Surrey Scoobies
And look no exclamation marks.
Methinks your feeling unloved again and want some attention.
Bless, poor little poppet.

Nah, I'm happy with being a member of the NYOSC. But then again it's probably because they don't just jump out and presume but actually listen to their members before reacting. Thank you for your concern however.

If you feel you want to come to a meet and actually MEET people on the site thats very clicky i will happily meet up we can go in together and i'll introduce you to the friends ive made on there. cant name all but most. i'll be honest though i dont think you have done much for yourself starting this thread.
may i ask why you didnt post this up on our forum, maybe something could be done because dont think anybody would want an unhappy member.
Only reason i ask is that your the only person to date that has had a problem.
come along Ratboy will make you feel very welcome
