The problem is, Bongoave will make any facts fit in with his perception of events, and it doesn't matter how many people point him in the right direction, he will carry on like a little terrier and will not let go. ( he just loves $hit stirring, as people are starting to realize) and as was warned when he signed up on this forum, trouble follows him around like a bad spell, won't be long before he is banned of this forum the same as every other forum he has been on.

Daves post above is just fiction and regardless of how many times you tell him something it just does not sink. It is shocking how many threads he has been involved that have been locked and the number of posts that I have seen deleted is ridiculous. The mods will have a better idea of how many post they have had to remove of his.

I do feel sorry for the guy that he accused of been a Pedo as the way he has gone for me over something he knows nothing about is uncalled for. You would think he would have learnt his lesson by now.

Dave,

I am going to say all of this only once, so listen, and listen good.

Some points for you:

1) We can see who has and has not edited posts. Whatever his various sins and omissions might be, Dai has not edited a single post in this thread...but you have edited several.

2) Dai is my friend - I will make no secret of that. That makes all of this incredibly hard, because, as I have made abundantly clear to him, these situations are unacceptable to the club, to the forum, to us as his friends...and he needs to sort them out if he is to continue being a part of this community. Simon has already clarified his status on the forum. Since you seem to shout first and ask questions later, let me make this clear: We absolutely DO NOT support, endorse and cover-up for 'dodgy' traders. If you had been around a little while, you'd know better than to throw that accusation at us. In the interests of fairness, we tend to wait for the outcome of any legal proceedings, which can take some time, but there is a long list of traders who have been excluded from the forum.

3) We, the forum team, are not your enemies unless you make it so. Stop being paranoid.

4) I utterly resent the implication that by our actions we are in some way disrespecting the memory of the member who passed away last year. You clearly know almost nothing about the situation...not even his name. I was friends with him. I went to his funeral. I am not going to pass further comment on this situation, as it has almost no relevance to the subject at hand, and to discuss it in any further detail WOULD be disrespectful. Comment on this again, other than to offer a grovelling apology, and you will be permanently banned on the spot.

Listen to this bit particularly well:

You are your own worst enemy. How many forums must you be banned from before you realise that YOUR ATTITUDE is the problem, not everyone else? You would have been absolutely welcome here. We have no prejudice. However, in...less than a fortnight (is it?)...you have gone from being welcomed with open arms to staring down the barrel of a perma-ban.

Unfortunately, you have directed attention away from the matter at hand. If I were you, I would shut the hell up, and leave this to the parties actually involved. And no, that is not us trying to stifle debate...it's us trying to stop you ruining it.

I would turn your computer off for 24 hours and think long and hard about your attitude and actions. If you still think we are to blame for all of this, I'm sure it won't be long before it's not a problem to you any more. I for one think that would be a shame, but that really is in your hands.

cheers

James

Classicswede is one of the few on here that gives sound advice regarding LPG systems. He is a wealth of knowledge and has imparted this to us all on here who have the usual problems with our Volvo Bi Fuels. I am sure very many are grateful for his contribution on here.
I am sick to death of reading such vindictive posts and suggest to the moderators on here that the relevant threads be deleted from our forum.

Advice is great. U may think this is vindictive, but I got no personal axe to grind. When i see couple members being mugged-off and lied to, and have experience of his reluctance to accept his failings - palming em off to car owner, it does my head in.

Asking Autogas if he is. indeed registered, revealed he wasn't, despite his own claims he was both registered and approved fitter. Knock-on issues for people paying for approved installations (at their top=prices) getting cheaper ones fitted, badly, and discovering some insurance won't touch you without cert.

It's all a bit devious and half-arsed imo. Am sure he is most convivial and helpful on here. He's a businessman and we're his clients.

Why did you post this at twenty five to three, then post it again at ten past four?
