Jog on sunshine.
where was the argument against the facts? I just made a satirical comment about how long all of this has been going on! and how long it will probably run for.... I think If I showed you a mirror you could probably have an argument with yourself

Not really flower. Why make the satirical comment? Except to promote a reaction, in which case you're a sad little troll. Other than that Russ has promoted the length of the reaction and is his worst own enemy by his stupidity in his actions .

You might want to reference this.

This thread itself arose from a new incident between RT M. Each time something like this jhappens of course a new thread will appear.......

The only way this can be calmed down from the way i see it is if RT M try to resolve the issue in a civilised manner between those involved without resorting to threatening moves.

Can I ask a quick question?

Has any member of this forum actually received a copy of this letter directly yet?

I only ask because until such times as our membership is directly affected by this issue we cannot justifiably act in order to protect our membership. At the moment it is just (to use strictly accurate legalese) just hearsay and thus cannot in all fairness justify a considered reaction by this forum's Moderating Team. Should our members be directly threatened by this letter we will of course rethink our views on allowing posts about R T Mechanics and the potential threat of legal action this may entail.

And yet again the Chimp has nothing to add nor has the Chimp been around long enough to make any useful judgement.....

I'll give you an answer from a moderator POV - Yes, and not only are they a member of the "volvoforums" but also a fully paid up member of the VOC.

If you wish to know more, please PM me <Here or there>

One must not forget that MrThompson has also made advances towards VOC officials requesting the Editing or complete removal of posts and threads which he deams to be harmful to his business.
