Hot Heads and MASSIVE Ego's
I read here every day....I have met some TOP fella's and had a brew, beer and a chin wag....I have gained much knowledge and respect a whole bunch of you...BUT...recently OMG....there are some enormous Ego's out there.....and they are beginning to show here....
Come on chaps...we all have a common interest... DISCOVERY 3...remember...and quite frankly the "my dad's bigger than yours" is gettin a bit boring......
Mods do a good job but we should all look to NOT put them in a difficult corner....
D4 HSE....Probably, but not quite decided yet.

Tune Wars. In this week's episode, accusations are made in a veiled manner, withdrawn, repeated and contradicted.
What I find ironic is that the person kicking off on behalf of a tuner isn't employed by them. In fact the tuner didn't post on the thread in question and from what I've come to understand of them would probably be mortified by it all. 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.

Totally agree with ND there, word for word, and becoming an agreeable habit too. The tuner in question I know too, and would almost definately be a tad embarrassed, upset by a customer of his spreading unwanted/unfounded/non-reasearched views. What there is to gain by this drivel is under our radar, but at least it was modded

The other thing to point out about what the mods have to do is remove long quotes. I'll be honest I used to do it and thought the message "Unnecessary quote removed" was an automated removal tool, but it is actually one of the mods having to remove it all the time .
I am pretty sure most people are not aware of this
