    Since I joined the site in September 2006 I have noticed very little change in the "banter" of the site. But what you class as banter seems a very different idea of what I and what seems the vast majority of NMS deem to be banter and actually funny. If you want banter and to have a dig at people then go down the pub or find another site that caters for your wants.

    Cant comment on posts deleted etc but banter is a very subjective personal view that can (without meaning it) get out of hand very very easily,most of the people on here have one thing in common and that is a genuine love of MINIs of one kind or another due to many factors that are no buisiness of anyones but their own and it can never be right to express views that have nothing to do with anyone else.Some may feel that because this is a forum that anyone can join that they have a right to express their views ...but they do not have that right and if they are not happy ...go some where else and play NICE but remember ..if you dish it out...... can you take it ????, for the most it is the love of their cars and nothing else that brings them and keeps them here,so many forums have failed due to individuals expressing their VIEWS...not happy here... please p7SH Off and leave this site to people that want to stay here and enjoy the family atmosphere /friendships that many on here have.But is this just banter ????

    (despite the fact I'm driving traffic here from the old NM url ) I won't say anymore on the topic.

    Well for starters you wouldn't have accused me of trying to ruin the site via PM before actually considering the fact that I might have been joking.

    I'm not party to what gets discussed behind the scenes but your (again) comment clearly indicates the fact that you believe I have an agenda against NMS.
