I just have to ask........

Re: Let have a forum about Motor Boats!

Amazing that...for a family day out.

Please advise when you would next like London raunchy. Just send 2 blank cheques...the second will be 10% of the first.

Hope the tin helmut fits

...I wanna boat please..
 
Re: Let have a forum about Motor Boats!

Wow! I could get to like this winding up business, no wonder wakeup and boatone love it so much, it's so.............................exhilaratin' innit' not to mention a rush!
 
Re: Let have a forum about Motor Boats!

Never mind a boaters lounge, we need a real time chat room so csccott can wind up real fast.....

yada yada..
 
Re: Let have a forum about Motor Boats!

It's not boaters lounge, it's bullshitters parlour! Can't be bothered actually I just love the banter, passes the boring hours out here, sometimes I'm up to my arse in alligators for days on end, then it's a few days of BORING! thats when I get on here, passes the time!
 
Re: Let have a forum about Motor Boats!

Don't understand why you would consider bwing wound-up by others such a rush. Now the real artistes , they have style ,,, never know which version they are on...taking of which is Byron ill, no insults all day ...hmmm

...I wanna boat please..
 
Re: Let have a forum about Motor Boats!

er ummmm! I'm off for my dinner, but feel free to continue, he says retiring confused!
 
Possibly my last words on the subject,,,,,,

ccscott said earlier..."Anyway where is that boatone, wakeup is gettin' right uppity!"

Oh dear, nip off for a few hours to get some work done and look what you get up to!
Wakeup/Colaholic/Learner/Brendan and even BarryH (tho must admit BarryH did at least express some sort of opinion rather than the mildly schizo ravings of the others)...seem to remember sailbad having a bit of a foray as well.........

Let me express my views in a reasoned and unemotional way thus...............
I really do value this forum...the collective knowledge and open handed generosity of many here is a refreshing antidote to the general aggravation associated with so many aspects of modern living. I have had good reason to be genuinely grateful to several of you for your support and assistance with my boating endeavours and I would hope that some of you feel that I have been equally helpful to you.

I also do actually enjoy the wit and banter and even (occassionally) the windups and emotional angst displayed by some but I often do not have time to wade thru a plethora of inconsequentia which just may contain the odd gem of really practical information.

Earlier this week I logged in after a few hours away from base to find over 100 new posts in this forum alone!!!! A few were serious issues and in some cases folks were asking for advice and information I might have been able to supply but the thought of reading every single post did my head in, I'm afraid.

What I would like is to be able to quickly identify and read that which is likely to be of practical value and to dip into the humour/reparteee as and when I have time or am in the right mood to participate.

Many of the subject headings are themselves of little use in recognising what the content is about.

I stand to be corrected (and I'm sure I will be...) but am I unreasonable in believing MoBoChat's raison d'etre to be primarily a forum for discussion and information exchange on motor boating issues which can, of course, contain some wit and humour in its delivery, or is it more of an entertainment venue where motor boat issues may sometimes get house room as and when.......?

MoBoChat for motor boaty topics and Ministry of Fun (MinFun) forum for the 'lets have a laugh and a wind up' stuff doesnt seem to me to be a bad compromise and there do seem to be others here who share my view.

Alternatively, should we be using PBO R2R as the place to discuss info and advice and totally release MoBoChat to the entertainment role?

Re: Possibly my last words on the subject,,,,,,

But Tony it's all been discust before. I've just been away for a week, so theres hundreds of posts. It's not a crime if you dont read them all and I'm sure some one else can answer.
If it's split up it will be. Disjointed. No subject to joke about. And anyway. Wheres the break point. Whats interesting, whats practical and whats boring.

Re: Possibly my last words on the subject,,,,,,

<font color=blue> I too have been away all week and come back to a "load " of new messages and threads. As mentioned before I cannot get braodband (living out in the sticks) so jumping from Forum to Forum is a pain in the ar*e. I have to accept that unless I'm always online I may miss out on something. That's life.

Having spent hours at Wareham in the early days - Dads boat was moored 1/2 mile down river.
I think ONE massive thread on Wareham is a credit to those involved. If you wanna read then do so - if not then don't. Much better than loads of NEW threads.

Why not have a "HUMOUR" thread that everyone keeps posting on the end off - Same again, read if you wanna - don't if you don't.

But lets not split the Forum up. (sorry Tony - for once I'm not with you on this one)

and finally I wonder if Kim could introduce a Spell Checker - for the saddos that do knot no how too spell proply. </font color=blue>

Re: Possibly my last words on the subject,,,,,,

Quite right.

one hardly needs broadband to change forum pages, surely? (I can't say I notice any extra delay changing forums compared with just clicking on a thread heading in same forum)
