Attempt by our Committee to change the Club rules without notifying the members

[Floyd Raser]

The series of arguments, that you consider are minor, could not be solved in friendly way due to several people thinking they could do what they liked. This can be judged by NickC's thread about the oversized outboard, which they did not like being ridiculed. NickC's solution was to sell his share in the boat, but he decided to sell his share to the 3rd member of the boat partnership. This must have caused a reaction as the other 2 partners thought they should obtain it and I believe this was the cause of NickC's expulsion.

The first line above has quite an assertive opinion, how do you know what their attitudes were? How do you know what the other partners thought? You seem suggest you are very well informed.
We unless you can enlighten us, have no idea of the verbal exchanges and their respective inflections, relating to this issue. There must have been some but Nick is never going to relate them if he lost out.
Going public was the worst possible thing to do, and I refer you to Vic's post on page 93 where he clearly explains that the club and committee are clearly identifiable. Nick seems to be basing his whole case on his own belief that the club was anonymous from the start.

Whatever we may think about the commodore, he may actually have gone around the expulsion in the correct manner.
I don't know what will happen at the next agm and I couldn't give a toss.

Question for you Concerto: I put forward the notion that the invitation letter which Nick posted was not threatening at all, and was a reasonable request, correctly worded in an effort to sort things out. No one has yet shot that idea down in flames, what do you think?

Question 2: Nick keeps all correspondence. Where has he ever said that he contacted the club to say the time and meeting place were inconvenient and could it be re-arranged?

Who the hell's bothered about all this stuff? Some disgruntled member with a bee in his bonnet. I know from experience of clubs how difficult it is to get new blood in the committee and how quick to criticise some ordinary members are.

Thank you to my fellow forumites who told me the name of the club, it seems that everyone but me did know the name of the club.

VicS, Don't feed the troll !

I don't and am not that bothered; but in the unlikely event of my wanting to join a club on the East Coast I'd be very keen to know so I could avoid it like the plague.

 

[l'escargot]

Indeed they are.

And he seems to be the only one not to realise...

 

[Otter]

Or is he?

At last - something useful and informative on this thread!

I had wondered how you do that.

 

[Floyd Raser]

Hi,
It makes no sense to me either. its gone on and on and on and on, not the thread but the whatever you want to call it. still a moderator has just Pmd me, so with a bit of luck Nick can get on with his agenda, and Floyd could try to get over his very evident problem with someone he has never met and never will. As I keep suggesting continually, just try to say something Nice. what absolutely amazes me is both Floyd and nick could well just laugh it all of so easily, why is it so dam hard.

Steveeasy

Oh yes. Easy isn't it?

Floyd,

I didn't see Nick call you an idiot, but if he did that was just a technically correct desription, not offensive as you have been.

Escargot doesn't seem to realise you have only appeared lately and been little but offensive, but I have been following.

You called me gullible for believing Nick's patient explanation of events, for a start.

I did not see any need to explain the hole you have dug yourself, but the fact mod's are apparently on to you - and Steveasy has tried to engage any sense of humour you may have behind your agenda with no luck - says it more than adequately.

Wey hey, look at me!

That's great Vic, thanks. Now I can offend even more people in one post. That's effeciency. :encouragement:

 

[VicS]

Are you really that Scottish university lecturer who used to post on here a few years ago and who made childrens television programmes on the side?

"Professor Foghorn", i think he called himself on Cbeebies.

 

[yachtorion]

So why is it we can't post the club name? I see nothing in the rules against it and therefore no reason why posting the name would result in the thread being removed. Much worse has been said in this thread.

If it's who I think you mean, you will find he's still on here under another identity, not Floyd though...

With this post, the thread now only needs another 50 posts to make the whole 1000.

Just a practical observation...

(edit: darn, beaten to it!)

"Professor Foghorn", i think .

Boredom is boredom and fair's fair, but that is really not playing by the Queensbury rules ...and you know it.

him calling Floyd Raser an idiot

Quote the post please boy

Come on chaps, let's get to the 1000 before someone says something stupid and they lock the thread

Nope, go look for it.

Are you cornish or not? The last few posts of yours have been minus the crappy accent attempt. Like Steveeasy has also dropped the suicide-bomber-trying-to-blag-his-way-through-immigration trait as well.

If eez gonna be a karracta boy, at lees keep 'im up!

How about the posts like the one below where he put him on his "idiot list", or are you going to argue semantics in your phony accent?

...As you know Floyd I have you set in my 'idiot' list so I only get to see your posts when they are quoted by someone else. If you don't like reading posts from NickC or Puggy or Kev try doing the same...

And why would someone refer to themselves in the 3rd person? :encouragement:

Cause it was why previous threads about this was pulled
The name is still here in this thread in post from andygc the admins allow that to stand so they think the club deserves to be exposed
