Here we go again!!

Simon did say that he was going to lock it if the **** taking continued, and surprisingly it continued!!

Don't blame him locking it as it was just getting ridulous

Check the ScoobyNet policy will you!

He did warn aswell, get off his back and allow him to run the site, the time he spent trying to keep that thread open could have been better spent i feel.

Thumbs up

Wemaster's reasons were coherent, justified, and - above all - made public on Page 24 of the thread. I, for one, have grown in my respect for his judgement give him my absolute support. Conspiracy theorists can make what they will of the very last 2 posts!!

Exclamation

Simon, one person ignored you, i would apreciate you deleting this person's post, as you have done during the thread when required, and then reopenning the thread.

I would be surprised if anyone else was so stupid again.

Thanks

Thanks guys.

John. The reason my last request was made was simply because time is too short now to continue to spend it on that thread, which a) seemed to be going nowhere, b) had run it's course, and c) was turning in to a joke rather than being of actual use to anyone.

The only way it was able to be kept open was due to the huge input of the tireless moderator team, shaun and myself, but we can only spend so much time on it.

The balance has now shifted away from the importance of the thread, so it will remain locked.

If time permits again, we will consider unlocking it again, but this cannot happen for the next few days certainly.

Unfortunately, this is yet another case of a minority (in this case one person) managing to spoil it for so many people who wanted that thread to remain open.

All the best

Simon

It's not the pages, it's the views that count Doc

Simon,

Shame you locked it, but it hasn't really run it's course as nothing has come out of it.

Apart from creating a band of 28 brotherly hardy track goers with one mission in mind
