The difference between the two is that moses really believes in his religion - UB just wants to do it as nobody else listened to his childish political activism for the last 30 years and he thinks this is his big moment. Both are perhaps misguided and gullible, but at least moses apologises afterwards.
Moses, on the other hand, is happy to engage in debate and at least give the opposing view the time of day.
I'm confident that this post won't worsen Robin's position by leading him to mental conflict as I am no doubt also on his "ignore list"
Although I suspect his unfailing self belief may just make him curious enough to have a look

I was trying to make the point that there is so much bitching on here, and then people moan about it, surely you can go and post on another board or switch off for a while. No need to get so upset about it.
Moses goes on, but he's harmless and I'm sure if people didn't argue with him, he'd find somewhere else to post... PSLewis is just a wind up merchant, yet people fall for it all the time...
That's the sort of thing I meant.

I'd venture that everything has a shelf life, including websites, and Scoobynet just can't keep the members interests.
As has been said, Impreza's are not cult cars anymore, and perhaps the majority of hose buying them are either too mainstream to have an active interest in a BBS, or too young to be arsed with a site which they may see as quite dull compared to some of the less politically correct and arguably more "open" boards?
A victim of its own success in that regard perhaps?

Combined with the SN old school getting sick of 'text speak bell ends' coming on here with their Lexus rear lights and generally making the place a less pleasant place to be.....

D, maybe half the reason people aren't posting is because they're afraid of being treated like this poor chap?

"trolling in muppets"
Kind of says it all really. Whoever infracted you for that should be shot.

As you can now be banned for trolling, insulting other members etc. people are now thinking before pressing 'submit' button on their posts, and the old 'second thoughts' is seeing them delete it instead.....
Scoobynets gone all pc........ and dull

Make CWE like fightclub, where you click a special 'I accept that I may get offended' tab, then once inside no infractions allowed......

The infraction system reflects perfectly this countrys move toward super capitalism, by empowering the few (who pay) to control the foolish masses, but by effectively taxing them to do so, is sublime.
if you want a bunch of paid up 'yes' men/women then fine, but dont expect any semi intellectual anarchists to be remotely contributory, even if they do drive Subarus
swim against the tide or drown with the dullards

Well, that went better than expected At least I didn't get any "thick bitch" comments
Oh, I never posted in 'CWE'
BTW, Scoobynet needs a bit of argument from time-to-time to make it interesting IMHO...

It's about time we had some boring mod come wading in here with a "I'm boring I'm locking this nonsense" post.....

Maybe everyone else is jsut fed up waiting for Phil Mills to update his Blog and have gone over to see if he's posted on the Citroen site by mistake
