New member and I got in at last!

...and has it not come to your attention that the 'regulars' are also abusing me? Am I allowed to get abuse because I'm not as high and mighty as regulars? If this is how you view my status, ie below regulars and that your definition of 'abuse' is a selective definition, then your bias (blinkered view) has absolutely no affect on me whatsoever.

I don't kiss arses for advise, it is either freely forthcoming or not at all, either way I will sleep well.

When you post these words to the regulars I will know that you stand a neutral ground. Until then I'm sure this forum will remain an 'us and them' set up as you have just innadvertantly pointed out!

If you find the tirade of brainless moronic foul mouthed abuse that has recently been directed at me (I'm sure you'll be able to justify it) then I can assure you that you will be able to accept anything that comes from me as mild.

This whole thing started because you misconstrued a comment made by one of the 'regulars'. You then took it upon yourself to go on the attack.

I am not having a pop at them because they are merely sticking up for each other. Thats what mates do.

I am also mates with these guys.

As you can see I am not throwing abuse at you. You may also notice that I offered you the proverbial olive branch.

Some of the guys on this thread I've never met. Others I have. I will help anyone I can. That includes you. I don't like bullying and won't tolerate it. Winding people up and then wondering why they are argueing back doesn't constitute bullying though.

Other people have also gotten off on the wrong foot on this forum. They have then eaten humble pie and have fitted in to be as normal as a landrover owner can be.

As for my high and mighty position......I'm not here to fight with you. I don't hold grudges. I've upset people on this forum. That includes the 'regulars'. I've eaten a fair old chunk of humble pie. If I'm wrong, I am prepared to acknowledge it.

A constructive post without abuse, I take my hat off to you!

I am of the opinion that if two people have cross words for whatever reason then those two people sort it between them. I don't agree with friends all stick together regardless of who is right or wrong. My understanding is that to stick by a friend even when they may be considered to be in the wrong by the 'protector' then that 'protector' has moral issues.
A good friend in my books is one who will be prepared to speak out against friend when they know them to be doing a wrong, ie pathetic childlike foul mouthed abuse, childish name calling ie 'gay' etc etc. I do not bow to that kind of crap and olive branches are in short supply toward such an imbecile.

As for the rest of your post I am happy to go with the flow.
I drive a Land Rover, I've driven and owned many cars but it doesn't make me any more special than the next man just because I own a specific brand.

Alienating can come from people who feel they are something special because they belong to a specific group of similarly minded people. An example of this would maybe be someone who is familiar with using their Landy for mudplugging along with their mates but will alientate someone who is equally happy to use their Land Rover on tarmac because they are not ready to risk paintwork damage etc. I fail to see why a mudplugger feels they may be superior to the other?

Yes I could've done things differently on here but then I'm not alone there am I?
I will happily extend a hand of friendship (limited supply you understand) from this point on but certainly not on a one way basis.

It's called having a laugh!

Did you actually take the time to read any of the banter here before you joined, or are you just working your way around the various LR forums making yourself unpopular?

LRD5 said:

Laughs...no of course not, just didn't want to waste my time making you look a bigger **** than you've already done yourself!
What, you think your buddies are impressed with you? Like I said , muppet.
Now run along there's nothing to see here. :doh:

You CAN sit back and ignore but what you mean is you WON'T.
Friendly? I saw and appreciated a few welcomes and expressed such.
Those that have gone straight into dialogue or poked their nose in without so much as a contribution to the threads topic or a welcome is not what I call friendly.

Nope, I don't expect people to change for me and you would do well to expect the same from me.

I apreciate you don't wish to give me your advice and so I've had a think about what you 'advised' ( :doh: ) me to think about and have deduced that you too lack people skills!

In this instance you don't have a point but I do and this is it...

you were the one who stated that you would "ignore my posts" and I was the one that stated you wouldn't!

One of us knows the predictability of the other one best. I'll leave you to guess who that is.
How about we now quit while I'm ahead?

Ok guys, I get the distinct impression that LRD5 has more than taken the bait!

He (I assume it's a he) is new to the forum and is obviously a bit green to the fact that we are actually a friendly bunch who share a common interest in Land Rovers, help one another where possible, enjoy/organise a good day out and above all have FUN!!
There is a need to be thicked skinned and **** take (whether dishing it out or being on the recieving end of it) is an occupational hazard on Landyzone.
Being new and introducing yourself is a lottery; some get away lightly, others (like LRD5) go wading in all heavy handed after baiting, provoking the kind of responses from seasoned members that we have seen on this thread.
LRD5 mentioned my 'buddies' in an earlier post; you may (as I have) meet some fantastic people through Landyzone and form strong friendships with some of them or as in my case, a new relationship.
There are people on this forum that I would trust with my life.
LRD5, you are from Dorset same as me, I dont know whereabouts you are in relation to me but if you are interested in doing some off roading and would like to legally explore some parts of the county that are not widespread knowledge then I'm the guy to ask, other people on the forum will back this up from their own experiences.
I know you have been wound up and maybe had your nose put a little out of joint - I too am someone who does not suffer fools gladly in the real world, but on an Internet forum I am quite happy to unwind and become one!
I very rarely offer the olive branch - perhaps we should all just climb down from our respective soapboxes and start afresh?
Over to you..............

This popularity contest, is it judged by the same names that crop up on this thread? If so then why are you still participating in communicating with me if I am so unpopular?

I can't see the funny side in calling your clubs ****S, SLAPPERS etc irrespective of how close to the truth it may be. Maybe my sense of humour is failing me or maybe it's how you draw attention to yourself? Nowt as weird as folk eh?

For a moral person, I have no morals.

The guys taking the **** outta you are the same guys that take the **** outta me. The same guys that I will also take the **** out of.

If I screw up they're the first to publish the fact. If they screw up I'll be at the front of the queue to show them up.

it's kinda like a love hate thing. But......

the day they're in trouble and need help. I'll be there. Complete with camera to record the unlucky event.

I hope this is the end of the 'serious' argueing. With a bit of luck you'll accept any **** taking that may follow purely as high jinx. If you haven't already been told.....Having skin like a rhino's arse is a valuable asset.

Damn it, thought you would've guessed that that was what 'etc' meant on this occasion.
Can't do a SLUT run unless it's on tarmac, I do have paintwork to look after y'know and I don't want my tyres to get wet. Even on tarmac I would have to be in the front as I don't want to risk a stone being thrown up from someones rear tyre and hurting my Land Rover!
Can I watch from the main road?

Ratty, are LRD5 and Chromiumuk one and the same person?



You know what I'm on about:

• not knowing when to shut up,
• doesn't grasp when someone is trying to help,
• believing their own rhetoric,
• generally behaving like a sanctimonious prick,
• etc, etc

I'm now bored with this - you can't help someone who won't help themselves or at least try to.


This guy may turn out to be a bigger asshole that Tweets was when he was preaching his gay pride crap.


So LRD5, quoting the words of Trewey:

WHY DON'T YOU JUST **** OFF AND DIE???
