Didnt notice it had gone, but not hard to see why if it has, was monstrously off topic even by PF standards

Especially with that wrc numpty and his tag conspiracy obsession littering it with that nonsense.

That guy really was on a mission, he seemed to care as much about the conspiracy of tags as I do about stuff like accurate info about engine internals, I genuinely believe he would have gone on for 100 pages if left to it

I know im a bit on the throough side about getting the correct technical info into threads so Im not looking down on him for his commitment to his cause, but it really did just seem like not a very interesting cause in the first place.
He literally joined the forum just to complain about the tag conspiracy too, he wasnt even registered until then.

Proper fruit loop!

If you singled out the tag moron by removing all his posts only can you imagine how much more he would then shoot his mouth off everywhere about "the powers that be silencing my quest for the truth" etc

Agreed, seems insane to delete a post of techincal merit without deleting posts or locking it?!

I thought it was amazing, a couple of very skilled mappers and Simon going at it and asking questions that went straight over my head but my quest to understand it got mereading around more!

That is what his forum should be about - technical knowledge and skill and love for our Fords (Or BMW's in 90% of cases )

So how do we find out why it was removed?bit lame if it's just cos of the tags issue,which ,albeit went off on a tangent but did surprise a few people to find out they weren't wholly anonymous.

Interesting.

You could always start a thread in the policies and problems room and ask the question?

I wouldnt on principle TBH if I was a mod, on the basis that there is a specific room for such queries and if they start replying to threads everywhere else as well then people will expect queries from anywhere to be answered, then will get upset if they get missed in a busy room and so dont get answered, when if they were just in the one place it would keep things a lot simpler for both the users and the mods.

My word Chip, you do sound rattled

I didn't think there was a conspiracy so to speak, I just wondered why Stu was unable to reply to me and why you were trying at lengths to gossip and lie about the tags removal.

Especially as you 'claimed' later in the original thread that you don't gossip Hence proving you do lie

I am sad that I missed your original reply to my last comment I was able to post before removal. I would of been interested to read your reponse.

Judging by your clear annoyance on this thread, it would of been entertaining with a touch of comedy no doubt

Just as long as it wasn't your typical hypocritical reply, I think I will get over it. No doubt you will leave plenty of opportunities in the future to discuss your contradicting and hypocritical nature

Proper fruit loop!
The only reason it may of gone on is because I am a retard on computers so can't multi quote as yet, hence this being my 2nd reply. And also the fact that I hadn't actually received a proper response from the horses mouth to the tag removal. All I had was your contradicting,hypocritical,name dropping lies

I didn't just join the forum to complain about the tag removal/conspiaracy, so yet again your wrong and trying to be misleading as usual.

To be as sanctimonious as you portray yourself Chip, you need a better memory of what you have said in previous comments on here

As regards to the fruit loop insult I think it's pot,kettle,black time
