I think you're being a bit literal re the forums purpose and content. The forum is a broad 'church' for many and the discussion is varied and diverse.
This thread, amusing and random as it is, is actually pretty much par for the course regarding anything non D3 / 4 / 5 related.
Whilst I have my views on Dan NL's views, ignorance and naivety, I will back him and support him all the way to have them, however deluded and wrong he is. D4 HSE EU6 (Known as Jeeves)

Chaps. This is not acceptable. Trolling, personal insults, and general unruliness will not be tolerated.
Wind it in, or the thread goes.

A bit late Gareth as the bizarre trolling started with the opening post.
At least his tinfoil hat mini-rant was in the correct part of the forum. As he repeatedly posted stuff that was not true and didn't change course when corrected he either expected the responses or actively sought them.
Calling the forum members a bunch of tossers suggests he was not looking to make friends or play nice.

Just picked back up on this thread. The last Assange one I locked resulted in a barrage of PM's as to why Dan couldn't have the last word ...seems now that he truly has 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

If he had just expressed his opinion that Assange was getting a rough-ride through the justice system a debate could have been had. Everyone is entitled to an opinion and some parts of the justice system do require a judgement to be made and we all have to be open to that.
The recasting of facts and distorting of truth in an effort to beat others into submission both catalysed and justified the rough-ride Dan received. If you cast yourself 'right' and everyone else as 'wrong' then it will only end one way!

Volvos and Mercedes you say? I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Talking about Land Rovers, I walked into main dealer yesterday
Me, have you any D4’s
Salesman, What is a D4? Oh you mean a Discovery 4
Me, yes, have you got any Discovery 4s in.
Salesman, What colour are you thinking of?
Me, under my breath salesmen,
Me, prepared to walk out, your website shows you have 6 in stock.
Salesman, not at this branch!
Somehow I think they have just lost a sale!
Now back to JA and let the U K legal system take its due course. Somehow I can not see the U.K. court system granting him bail again or any other country granting him bail.

I'm thinking, after Gareth interjection, I may now add "Internet Troll" to my CV. What do you guys reckon?
Joking aside... the BSNews links in Dan's links were enlightening. Some strange versions of logic being applied methinks. On the face of what i read, the BBC will continue to have my attention rather than the "unbiased" ( yeah, right) bsnews.

Look Chaps, just because the Volvo and Mercedes (oh, and Porsche) forums are about as exciting as a bee-sting, on a hot summers day, you are welcome here. 👍
