From what I'm told, the forums aren't helped by the fact that there is so much political based debate and conspiracy mentality.
Having said that, I don't have time or inclination to start censoring or dictating what is and isn't allowed to be discussed, so I'd rather find some other way of enthusing people to talk about motorbikes like they used to
Dabz, I think the forum punches pretty well for its weight, you have a relatively small number of members and catchment area after all. As for examples of enthusing people to talk about bikes look no further than the recent postings by House on his 650 Yam and 'nearly bike', that guy should get a regular TV slot let alone the odd forum thread ; )Originally Posted by Dabz
James, you know how much I respect you and enjoy WBs. I deliberately didn’t start a thread on the Labour leadership result for the very reason outlined in your post. However, I only contributed after I thought it was a topic other members were happy to discuss. Personally speaking, I have never understood why users of forums, be it biking or cricket or any other, which have a general chat section, complain about too much of this or too much of that subject under discussion because it does not interest them. It is what it says on the tin, ‘non bike chat’ or ‘non cricket chat’. If I have no interest in a topic under discussion under any section I simply give it a body-swerve and move on to something that does interest me. It always baffles me when people come on Facebook and complain about X factor after sitting watching it for an hour and a half. Lol. Let’s talk bikes.

No worries at all Kenit's always good to have debate, as long as it doesn't turn in to bickering!
Great that's the end of that debate now lets move onto religion!
Well a Labour thread was never gonna go down well on a Wiltshire site, was it? We did religion years back, i seem to remember some members on here getting very hot under the collar
Shouldn't that be hot under the dog collar?Well a Labour thread was never gonna go down well on a Wiltshire site, was it? We did religion years back, i seem to remember some members on here getting very hot under the collar
I was actually expecting this to be about Danny Kent by the way!
I wouldn't want to see too much censorship on this, we are lucky that with have party's with differing views, and people on here to share theirs. I think there's a name for places with only one view allowed to be held. And some of you lads do pick up on stuff that I've not read, I'm sure I'm not the only one
I like the Levellers by the way, but being my age I see (latest album sleeve..) and hear a lot of Crass being recycled. If that's your bag I well recommend digging out some old Crass musing. My records were all scratched to hell listened to them secretly on and old Dansette - they would have been confiscated if my mother had heard the language, and the anti Tory ranting!
