Post a picture of your car here Part 4 (quote a picture, get a 24h ban!!)

That's your perception but I disagree. I post regularly championing budget tyres, motor tax, pics of classic cars etc.

Just because I dont wish to ever meet any of you in real life or become online buddies, it does not mean I can not forum here too

thanks

Your without a doubt a massive troll in instances like this though PP, you come in with your big spoon.

You don't have to know us, there's plenty that we don't know either.

yawn, Id like to see more pics in this thread and less chit chat directed at me

I'm indifferent to all of this but yet again you have turned up to turn this into a disaster.

Why you post in this forum is beyond me!

your horse is so high i am surprised you have not broken all your limbs at this stage.

He said people met up previously to wash cars, don't see anything particularly untowardly about that.

Then again I dont have the mind set of wanting posters you dont like banned and sending out snidey pm's to mods.

nice Audi, but the silly German plate ruins it.

That Vento Atlintic looks like it was pulled out if it.

You're missing the point entirely. There's no problem with people meeting up for a chat and a fry, none whatsoever, but I was enquiring why the offer was extended seeing as we are supposed to be a community..?

You also ignored what I said about a meet in Midway and not telling people or making a thread. Guaranteed others would be (rightly so) wondering why the offer wasn't extended.



For me it sums up the sense or lack of community here.

Ah youre missing the point of this meet. It wasn't a boards meet, twas the first inaugural Irish motoring forum meet

As for meeting up with your fine self to wash our cars during the infamous hosepipe ban of 2014 by my lovely mammy, I'm confused as to how that constitutes a meet.
Suppose I should have made a meet thread for the day I went and bought my old 156 with yourself and dgt in tow
Soz guys

If I can weigh in (not that I give a flying fudge about a meet on the other side of the island) but PP could have edited that post to say 'wash cars', he left it as 'wash themselves' and just posted below it (which he then edited because he spelled wash wrong) he posted it like that to get a reaction, bad form if you ask me.

There was also a megane, an e39 520i and a marea jtd abandoned there.

The megane had a lovely shade of moss green carpets I have to say.

I really don't get the negativity here tbh.
This wasn't a boards meet, it was a group of friends, most of whom happen to be on boards (like the majority of the country) meeting up for a chat.

I've personally met most of the guys from other forums or through mutual friends. I'd chat to a number of them on a regular basis, unlike the majority of posters here in motors.

Sorry if a few people feel excluded but frankly you need to grow up.

Tis a sad day for the motors forum if a few guys can't post up a few pics of their cars without getting crap about it.

You're choosing to miss the point here along with everyone else who attended. I have absolutely no problem with a group of people meeting up on a Saturday and I have no problem if those people met through Boards. The problem that I have is them posting about it afterwards. I'm close friends with a number of the regular posters on here and we meet on a regular basis. However, when we do we don't post about it on boards afterwards talking about how fantastic a meet it was.

So if I go to my doctor with a severe pain in my left nut and if I post about that on boards, is it then boards related?

Get over yourself there would you? If you don't see the difference between a large number of regular posters meeting and going to the doctor you must have to wear adult nappies.

Crikey, bunch of whinging girls on here. Boo hoo.

Nice collection of cars, pity I'm not a bit closer to wherever it was (I'm assuming cork some place but I don't know as I wasn't invited either lol)

I was abit far away in north Galway, but like y'know they had rashers so that was that really...

I didn't complain about anything only the lack of pics :P

It was a group of locals for the most part and nothing to do with here. Does everything need to come through here to be screened? Community doesn't involve living in each others pockets. I think all there knew the others meeting up, some of the people there i'd consider friends in real life. Meeting up with your buddies isn't a sin surely?

Personally I wouldn't be a bit put out by others meeting up. I see that as a good thing, people out having the craic with more like minded people. That's a good thing.

Now let me make this crystal clear here. There is no problem with people meeting up, obviously not, if I had a problem with that it'd be a bit odd.

The problem lies when one chap drives 150 miles each way to this "local" meet and nobody else outside that? As in not even a short post in the chat thread to say a few were thinking of meeting tomorrow in cork for brekkie, pm if interested.

IIRC people who attended that "meet" were also the ones who complained of the clique in the chat thread recently enough and yet now are creating their own.




For the third time, if there had been a meet organized by 10 of us in Midway and we hadn't mentioned it here you can guarantee people from Connacht and Munster would be wondering why not.
