To cut out a bit of the posturing, I'll attempt to answer one of those questions from what I hope can be taken to be a reasonable impartial viewpoint.

My understanding (and do correct me if I'm wrong, long-standing members) is that T5D5 was set up because some VPC and VOC forum members were unhappy with how those sites were being run at the time. I seem to remember VPC coming in for particular stick due to excessive use of the ban-hammer, particularly when "anti-trader" threads started. At the time, many of these were aimed at VT / CTUK / HLM, call them what you will. Some people declared shenanigans. The VOC forum later came in for extensive stick following its extended closure in 200...er...8? 9?

As far as I'm concerned, inter-forum battles will help no-one. I don't think the forum team are going to make a public statement about why RT Mechanics (and indeed HLM) are no longer authorised to post as a trader, but affected members are welcome to post their experiences, good or bad. If the "right to reply" issue becomes a problem, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it...although previously said traders have not shown much interest in responding.

cheers

James

Your Effort of what might i ask? Effort to upset people its working!
You have no idea of what might have happened in someone's life on this day? and you have the cleverness to say that to a stranger?

Then You apologise in one hand then throw it back in the other!

Please find something better to with your day! Other than upset people for no reason!

You may indeed be correct - The forums all blend into one by the time 2am rolls round. And uou

Anywhos. Remember Chas X - every post on this thread brings more attention to it, not only from VOC members, but from the search bots, so Google, Bing, Yahoo etc.

Anyone notice how Chas X's drivel is remarkably familiar to that of a certain Mr.Taylor.

Or the fact that Chas has been a member on T5D5 since 23-March 10 and has yet to make a single post..
