Thanks from Zbirdy

...Victim of unprofessional moderation.
I just wanted to 'pickle' that in a quote, as I have a hunch that you might change it within 24 hours.

I thought the moderators were all volunteers?
 
Oh Its you again, I nearly forgot you existed, what a holiday its been without your sarcasm and worthless banter. I wondered how long it would be before you stuck your nose into something that is no concern of yours. Twas YOU albrecht, that sparked off the argument in the first place by your worthless contribution to my thread about Kent Specialists, which led to it being closed, or whatever they did with it.
In my opinion the forum volunteers who until now have been wrist slapped no doubt, and whom you say "take responsibility for me" need to take responsibilty for themselves before assuming they are qualified enough to take care of others.

This is not the "Self Pity" trip you would so like to paint it Albrecht, the only Pity I feel is for you,. Users of this site will, as many have already realised exactly what you are all about. "knowledgable" YES.
"Ready and waiting to stir up trouble wherever possible" YES. Those Mods and Admins, should have sussed you long ago matey.
And here I rest my case on this Forum.
 
What kinda pond life are you Albrecht ? ? You seem to be the type that likes making life miserable,, I for one think lifes 2 short. Leave my buddy Z-Birdy alone or I'll have to challenge you to a round of Conkers,,,,I've got some soakin in vinegar as we speak so watch yur step ! :p ( i'll probably get reprimand for this but it's worth it !!!) :D
 
hello there Derek, hows the coolest guy on the planet today? And your owner Merlin ! :D Re the above ,,don't really matter does it? Just havin a laugh at things. Sorry ,I know it's not right, but just this once I coudn't resist puttin foot in cake hole.:rolleyes:
 
Hi Ya Wally, nice to see you about again. derek's fine thanz and so am I - just chillin watching you humans make prats of yourselves on this forum. Better than the telly, I've almost given up sniffing lamp posts to watch the latest edition of Zbirdy V The Moderators with the Evil C(o)unt Albrecht. Should make a good mini series.

......You have to be respected for not airing the dirty laundry on this forum.
Er, I'm sorry - I did tell myself I wouldn't post on this thread any more - but do you think you have a full grasp of the situation? You just gave me one of the biggest belly laughs I've ever had on this forum ( admittedly tinged with bittersweet irony ).

The only reason you haven't seen his dirty laundry here is because it has been taken off view of the Forum by the moderators whilst a decision is made. The moderators / committee are trying to protect the Forum / website / Club from any damage that could possibly be caused by said posts. It is a serious situation. It seems to have gone over the heads of many of the people on the Forum, but it is indeed serious.

There is a certain irony in me writing this, but participants in this Forum must abide by the rules, and accept the decisions of Admin / Moderators. Trying to discredit and undermine those who volunteer their time and energy to make decisions for the good of all is an act of recklessness, and is NOT in the interests of the Forum and club.

When the main protagonist in this posts attempts to garner sympathy, it is all the more sad to see. To paraphrase John Lydon: "....ever get the feeling you've been fooled?

Completewally,
If Zbirdy is indeed a buddy of yours, you might like to have a word in his ear. Sometimes bad news and good honest advice is best delivered by trusted friends. If you had an idea of what was going on behind the scenes you might be better armed to advise him, but it is your business to make yourself aware of what has been going on. Without a full grasp of the background action, you might not be able to give proper advice. You might like to ask around a bit.

Pond life?
Can I be the rusty Waitrose trolley please? ;) :)

That'll be C(o)unt Albrecht actually.

Merlin not quite firing on all twelve cylinders tonight?
 
Sorry i got your Title wrong Albrecht, only realized on my way to the nearest lamp post and had to rush back but you beat me to it (probably to a lamp post as well).
 
I shouldnt really post, but hey...


"Behind the scenes" Albrecht, what do you think this is some kind of long lost manuscript from Nazi Germany about to be discovered in 1939. Get real.

There is no behind the scenes, apart from what is spiraling around inside your skull mate. It is no secret, that I have had a dissapointing time in relation to the restoration of my 240z, and if I feel that worthy of open discussion, without being outright libellous or unfairly critical, then I shall take my chances against the forum mods. That is my business and my right. It has sweet nothing to do with you, so why bother trying to run me down. There are two big differences between you and I, on this website Albrecht, and I suspect off the site they are;
(1) I have real friends. (2) You have real enemies.
Life is so cruel sometimes isnt it., but it is what you make it.
All my love..........Don.
 
Anyway Don don't worry about Albrecht he's got a very Big wooden Spoon,
If you want your car serviced or anything done, bring it down to me and I'll go throught it with you just for the love of early Z cars and next time you can do it yourself and save a heap of money.

Just bring some beers and we'll try not to drink too many before we start..

Might be abit of a journey though.

Nick..

Thank you Alan your right. I and the rest of the moderators have a million better things to do than read junk threads like this.....such as playing with our cars and doing other much more interesting and pro-active Z stuff.

Now then.....shall I be deleteing this thread this time round ????

Oh, and we must be looking at yet another rule breach and probably a ban.

Hey ho.

Welcome back, then :rolleyes:

I see you are making posts with the usual amount of planning and forethought. If it was a "....manuscript from Nazi Germany" precisely how would its discovery "....in 1939" make it "....long lost".? :confused:

The "behind the scenes" action I'm talking about is all the skullduggery and politicking you've been doing behind the scenes on this site, via PM and otherwise, trying to destabilise and undermine the forum moderation and get what you want. One does not need to actually know the ins-and-outs of what is going on behind the scenes to guess what is happening here; it is all visible in your recent threads.
Starting new threads just to protest and whine about threads that have been suspended precisely because of what you have written is a good example of this.

Apart from the fact that the above does not make any sense grammatically.....:rolleyes: :p it is also pointless bitching. Maybe it makes you feel better though.

You still don't see it do you? The Forum moderators and administrators are trying to save the Forum and the Club from being put at risk by you. All the slanging and name-calling is just so much white noise in the context of the main problem.

Get real? Very unlikely you would take your own advice, I suppose. You still don't seem to have grasped that you and I are Mr Pot and Mr Kettle.

:rolleyes: :D :unsure:

I hope the irony of the above will not be missed by people who really have a grasp of what this is all about.

You're missing the point entirely. Zbirdy is turning this into an Albrecht vs Zbirdy situation when it is really a Zbirdy vs Z Club committee / Forum admin / mods situation.

All the more ironic when I'm not even a member of the Z Club.........:rolleyes: :confused: :D

Carry on as you were then..........
 
Well, I'd like to know what's being "deleted" so I can make my own mind up. Anyone who feels like it can PM or email me though as I've now seen enough mudslinging in open forum and would prefer not to see any more.

Difference of opinion is essential to debate. However, this forum is for the benefit of the club, and the purpose of the club is the promotion and protection of the Z family of cars.

I don't want to see anyone leave - we need to keep as much information and enthusiasm within the club as we can, and I value the knowledge and opinion of everyone here - but it also has to be said that the wellbeing of the club and its aims are bigger than any individual.

Let's get back to what this club's about eh? If people want to get into fisticuffs then let 'em, but make em' do it somewhere else.
