In a previous forum that I belonged to they had pictures of their members, I was just wondering how the club members would feel about taking a picture of themselves next to their vehicles and have them on the members view area :?: :?:

Also if the club would be OK due to server space?

he has adhd and mild autism from the lady who had to write him up for school suitability after being exspelled from middle school then secondry always been a practical kid has frightend me to death from around 5yrs old with his talents of finding shed keys starting hedgecutters and transit vans whilkst im distracted! they wanted to prescribe ritilin but after seing a mates lad zombied on stuff and being anti any drug i declined and put up with his behavoir! i put it down to lack of disciplin i would never of dared do/say answer back the way he does id have had my head knocked of me shoulders i think this has made me to lenient on the little horrors!

(RIP) PLANK
22-03-2007, 23:43
Jace, a laid back attitude is probably the best route, there isn't a lot to be gained in battleing uphill every day!

I am sure i had adhd or simmilar as a kid but it wasn't diagosed then, i was just considerd naughty :lol: but a bit more empathy from my old man would have gone a long way! :wink:

jace
22-03-2007, 23:52
i still have the old attitudes though i havent the heart to clamp down on little blighters ive dogs placed with social workers in area they are so inept at running there own lives i cant believe they propose to help others there to good hearted by far i could see the sharper of there clients taking them for a ride quite easily which is a shame.im no angel myself quite a few dodgy deals passed my way if u get my drift an it is very right kids pick up on things very quickly not good but modern life is so quick they have to be i gues they have everything they could ever want pcs internet gmes consules tv video dvd i think we spoil them to much as we had nothing as kids but theres more money around than our parents had!

(RIP) PLANK
23-03-2007, 00:01
I dont think there is anyhting worng in spoiling them a bit. we never had much as kids, the old 'I can't afrod it and even if i could i don't believe in spoiling kids' attitude, and going without never did us any good!

I remember some kids seemed to have evey thing, good clothes, good bikes, nice parties, etc. and they allways seemed to turn out ok to me!

most people i grew up with are either junkies or in jail or both my mate was earning £1200 day selling smack i was so tempted but i warned him itd bite him he was adamant 12mths and ill have enough no i said once youve had that kinda cash so easy you wont be able hes doin 41/2 yrs now of us all theres only me another lad who moved down south who are not into drugs hes tied down with a mortage etc and around 5yrs younger than me if hed of stayed up here hed be a junkie by know he luved his smoke i could never see point init watched all others go smoke to smoking smack to injecting the stuff i could never understand how they could inject what looked like cold tes into there arm knowing it had potential to kill them then crack was smoked to get so high more smack to fetch em down they would sell anything and everything to buy more crack it must be some potent stuff!

goodness gracuious wolf do youhave a stick and a pair of big boots, a bit heavy handed this morning aren't we? I agree though a bit of tidying of the thread wouldnt go amiss, I think it is a teething issue with pub chat in that we are getting used to a more random natutraly ecolving style of conversation in threads and got carried away.

23-03-2007, 11:17
He might not have big boots and a big stick but i have and can give a spell in the glass house if my mods are attacked :wink: :lol:

True except this is not the pub chat area its 4x4 general if it was pub chat it would not be an issue.

I was thinking more of a section saying some thing like "Members and their Motors" and a indervidual Pic of their choice with them stood at the vehicle and a name or some thing attached to identify them :| I have looked through all the pics but would be able to identify who is who from them :( oh well hopefuly soon I can meet up with a few :smile:

I think we ought to open a new chat area in the pub for you and call it the snug, then you can wander off topic at will :roll: :lol:

(RIP) PLANK

(RIP) PLANK

24-03-2007, 22:10
Off topic myself here:

We used to have a chat area called at one time the Pub, but it was rarely used, it was also called the chat room, again rarely used. It was also a way that could allow hackers into the site i believe. One of the other mods called Nikon used to sit in the chat room for ages and monitor it, it was a good way of speaking and meeting members on line, also quickly exchanging ideas and advice. But as i said rarely used? Maybe if enough members wanted this again and were preparded to use and moderate it, software allowing of course, it could be re looked at by admin for a later date?

(RIP) PLANK
