I did.
Didn't actually come up with much if I am honest, except Armageddon '2' which has now just confused me slightly more as to what it really is.

Well I think the vast majority of us don't have a clue either.

It's what happens at 2am round here quite often, people go mad and take out their frustrations on a keyboard. Sometimes it can happen on the same thread several nights in a row!

Much to our amusement

Yes, it's a MAD world in all senses of the word.

Oh - and one man's comprehensive explanation is another's inability to concentrate for long enough.

Tbf I've always had that reputation, but I prefer to cover all bases in one go.

I haven't read the rest of tonight's contributions yet but can you see how divisive it is, the two camps forming?

You've made a contribution that I find positive, even though it's not complimentary to me. But then it's not insulting or abusive either - imo, so absolutely no offence taken.

Points can be put over, and people can reflect on how better to interact with others, without any nastiness.

So why do some immediately imply (or even say) 'what a ******* fcukwit, doing that to their Scooby', or 'what the **** did you buy one like that for?' when someone absolutely jumping with delight at owing one wants to show their absolute pride and joy on a forum full of scooby lovers, as they think?

Mine's stonechipped at the moment.
It might end up with car park dings (aaagggggggghhhhhhhh !!!!!!!!! the thought).
I might go mad and decide to sticker it up.

And those who hurl abuse at me having 'fcuked up a good car' or similar words - how would they feel if they - as they say 'have their a$$ handed to them' by it?

As Gary and others have said (intimated), avoid advice about the mechanics and that is silly.
But cosmetics (stickers, paint etc) don't affect performance, so for what
reason do people harp on, and insult and abuse those who have them on their car ?

The main thing that's annoying me is the consistent posting of drivel and google copy n pasting of law and consumer acts Ect. As a result giving incorrect info. Searching company house was the latest stalking scooby projects after a bankruptcy. When it's got nothing to with him !! Going out his way to cause trouble !! Out of order !! IMHO. Being a Subaru specialist garage myself, knowing the ins an outs of business, and how hard it is in this climate to keep the doors open, I have overheads of £3500 per week before we even break even.
GOTCHA !

So, you're "a Subaru specialist garage ......, knowing the ins an outs of business, and how hard it is in this climate to keep the doors open, I have overheads of £3500 per week before we even break even."

So, tell everyone one here one more thing - have you ever left Subaru owners out of pocket to the tune of over £60,000 when you've applied for voluntary bankruptcy?

Oh - and have you and your business been the subject of a thread on here where a considerable number of genuine, hardworking people who entrusted their hard-earned cash to someone who let them down?

Oh - and it IS something to do with me.
A SN member has asked for my assistance, and I'm providing it.

It's clear from your post and the thread you refer to that I am the subject of that particular fly in your ointment.
It could be contended that this entire thread started by you is aimed at me.

What you are going to do now is this:

YOU are going to post on here that I am not the person you have identified as "a nosey Parker pops up and says to the buyer " hey man, you know that tow hook is a fake !! " bearing in mind, I'd removed this from a breaker. The tow hook says benen ind, so advertised as such. The guy was just out to make somebody look like a mug !!"

Failure to do so will result in me taking this up with Site Admin (if it hasn't already been picked up upon) on the grounds that it is libellious.
Your post has been copied and archived.

Now, I think everyone needs to know this, in the interests of openness and transparency:

Do you have any association with AJR Performance Ltd, Scooby Projects Ltd, Keith Brian Rigby, the subject of a bankruptcy order issued in the Hereford County Court in February of this year or any of the Directors and/or Secretary of those companies?

Since you've stated that you have a garage to run and therefore it isn't to be expected that you'll be online until the end of business hours I'll give you until midnight today (29th Nov 2013) to make the required response(s).

PS gents, sorry for the lateness but it's been a long day.

(Strange thing is I had a lot to drink this afternoon due to a wake - far more in fact when I posted early evening than now).

Anyway, Paddy's paddy will no doubt continue but it's the midnight hour that tells whether we will be bewitched by 'his' answers or not.

I thought there was a little more to Paddy's hissy fit than was being let on. What I still find puzzling is his indignantion if he is operating/has operated within the law.

Let's clear up a few things,
1, I ain't ever and don't intend on being bankrupt.

2, I'm nothing to do with scooby projects.

3, never ripped anyone off !!

4, hopefully never bored the bollock$ of other members !

Most of all I don't have to do anything which you are TELLING me to do. This is an open forum where members are able to speak freely.

And please!!!! Don't threaten me !!

Like i posted in a earlier comment, you haven't directly affected me. I just can't abide the long winded posts, containing incorrect information and the fact u get involved in people's business when it clearly doesn't concern you !! This isn't just me either, I've spoke to quite a number of members who's back your also getting up. And a small number of moderators agree with me !

Tell me a bit about yourself anyway, have you owned a garage ? What do you do ?

I was quite dissatisfied with the response which I had got. Bearing in mind he'd been drinking heavier than usual.

The tow hook was an example that's all. I bit someone's ear off on fb, due to the fact I was getting pised off with someone else.
