    Posts 5 and 6 are the posts that I saw as a niggle against the committee.

    http://www.clubvr4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=31613 Is the thread criticising committee members for being namby pamby.

    http://www.clubvr4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30780 Is the thread criticising the committee for over-zealously moderating.

    Posts 5 & 6 following those two threads after a short amount of time is not seen as jest. If it was meant that way then fair enough, but it came accross as far more personal. I am not asking for anything more than understanding of why comments like these are at best annoying for those of us who do try hard to keep this club alive and fun, through memberships, IT, moderating, events, etc.

    I (and I believe every other committee member) will welcome constructive criticism with open arms, and will try and evolve further. Wodj, I believe several of your comments are just that and I'm sure we will discuss a couple of things at our next committee meeting.

    oh ffs, this was intended as a gentle dig at the silly old fart who sends out the packs, he asked me ages ago if i was bothered about the gift and i told him i couldn't care less and as and when a decision is made as to what it is then i would receive it then, but obviously some people on here have had a surgical procedure to remove the last traces of their sense of humour and have blown it all out of proportion i ain't gonna post on this subject anymore, mainly coz i have better things to do ith my life.

    Well i was about to say that i had not looked at or posted in either of those threads above ! But on further investigation i see that i posted a reply to SGHOM about him having sausages for tea

    Thats basically what i thought of the threads and the subject they where raising.. I had no interest in them and thats because MODS are ther to MOD, so let them get on with it. Each MOD will have a different view on what they think is suitable and not suitable.. Each to there own

    As for post 6 ! This was posted in reply to what PSB had written Which as i have said !! I took as being in Jest.. There are certain people on here that if they wrote the same thing i deem it as being there serious opinion Others i wouldn't take seriously..
    For instance !! If Dr McCuckoo had written the same thing Would i be writing this post now

    Nope i don't think so..

    I'm going home now so i'll leave it to you Namby Pamby over Zealous Committee members to sort out...

    Glad it wasn't my post though...
    Just came back from work and read all of this and think that this went way too far.
    My post was a joke, and so the others in my opinion.
    I wasn't expecting any gift and I'm very happy I got that pen and a letter from committee (why not in Polish)?. As a matter of fact I'm using it (the pen) on everyday basis! (black ink would do better but you can't make everyone happy )
    Also £20 is not much for everything I enjoy on this site and club events. I would probably pay even £30 if that was the price (doesn't meat that you have to bring it up to £30 )
    Don't think anyone would make any serious negative comment about the membership. If the individual doesn't like it, just don't pay it.

    Then help us out in the future by using smilies that reflect the mood of the post, and not the opposite

    Why wasn't there an explanation sent out or posted, to say that something else was being sorted and there may be a delay on the renewal packs being dispatched..

    Like i said earlier !! I ain't bothered about a key ring or a pen or whatever else it maybe that is being sorted.
    But for those that are waiting and may have no idea whats happening, why wait to be asked by each individual ? Why not send an explanation PM to the said members ..

    Anyway.. This has been turned into a farce and this is my last post on it.. There was no dig at anyone mean't by anything i posted..But if thats the way it wants to be taken then so be it.. I thought we were supposed to be more grown up and mature on this site.. Well maybe were kidding ourselves

    Thats all i have to say on the matter.. Done and dusted for me..

    AU REVOIR
    There was. Also in response to a couple of posts on the same matter. PSB mentions the dicussion in his post above. Packs were sent with an explanation in them as well. So......................I'm done
