So, you didn't mean to imply they masterbate excessively? As wankers is routinely used on tv shows these days there's no harm. Now if you used 'jerkoffs' it would be a different story.

Out of curiosity - have any other members who've had their posts on any OT moved - including Andrewb & DBcooper above - been PMed about the problem/issue before being bumped? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

The rule with bold at the subject about PMing:

"* We like everyone to be able to have their voice, so we won't edit, delete or lock a thread or post unless it's just gotta be done. Keep yer dirty pictures in the Sandbox, too. We'll do our best to send you a PM before we clean up yer messes."

I know that I never have been so contacted prior to any of several posts being moved, locked, edited, etc. in +/- 6.5 years on here.

I'd just say that IMHO it would probably be less work & most helpful if an Admin did contact someone first to state the problem/issue & let the OP fix it or say to bump it elsewhere. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

Just as a contrast - take a look at this section from a UK based Porsche forum called DDK.

The section is titled 'General Chat' and there are almost no rules. The topics range from cars to bikes to TV to .......anything and everything. There is plenty of Porsche content although it doesn't dominate as there are other sections in the forum for each of the older models.
It's all good informed and informative stuff, with plenty of humour, some of it dark, most of it lewd. No one takes themselves too seriously and it generally has a feel good factor. AS does 914world. They're both good - but different.

Oh no .... never .... what is the definition of excessive anyway!!?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I think that's why the UKers & Commonwealthers invented the term wanker! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Besides, we have a smiley specifically for that, which some overly friendly folks on here have used on me! I wasn't sure if they were bragging about their prowess in doing so, or asking for my help to do it!? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Implying they need a HAND with something I guess? You'll have to check with them to be sure. This whole thread has become excessively OT.

A "General Chat" forum isn't a bad idea - if all such chatter were posted or bumped over there - including the BBQ invites, Holiday Greetings, Mrs. K's/RTob's birthday wishes, etc. - then leave the Garage as auto oriented only.

Then the Garage forum could be further cleaned up by moving event announcements to the Events forum, AX & Racing stuff to The Paddock & Racing forums, O&H stuff to there, etc., etc.

But then folks would have to look at a bunch more forums to catch all the stuff, &/or have forum subscriptions to notify on more of them.

Well .... aside from our interspersed humor, sarcasm & side topics (as opposed to our doing further bashing posts) ....

I have tried several times to redirect it back to the rules & how/what to post OTs where, & asked some on topic questions! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

You could ask for some clarification in a thread. Ensure you title it as OT.

Oh Mark -

Do you mean jaggoffs like you who troll after me to every topic in O&H & Garage where I was helping other members with concours prep & judging matters earlier this year, & posted a pic of my wrecked 914 & a stooopid comment such as: "You mean like this?" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Or this & your earlier useless & meaningless post in this thread? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

BTW - I was taking time out from care issues for my aunt in hospital dying of pancreatic cancer, for some sanity time for me & to help other members, while you were pulling that mean-BS, & have continued even after I PMed you to stop & explained the situation & unprofessionality of your BS posts - even to the extent of trolling after me over to 914club, where your nasty troll post was immediately deleted!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

Aunt is dead & gloves are off pal! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Or do you mean other guys like TJ with a gazzillion posts - but generally with good stuff in them?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
