Where Are We Going?

Is it provokative to have an opinion, Vojx?

PS The Which mag isn't even availiable where I live. DS

Hi M,
I suppose the German spelling is for the benefit of Vojx? LOL!

If Which isn’t available where you live: it’s an amazing coincidence that you both refer to Factory Five in the same terms. There’s no natural connection that I can see.

Hi Vojx,
The provocation (or is it more like prevarication?) doesn’t concern me one bit….

But I am curious as to why all M’s posts have concerned BMW, Python and/or my references to it.

On another webforum there was so much 'baiting' and accusations that a few people were banned.

And like I recently said (in another thread on this forum): I think my words on that other forum have proved to be true.

Den is keen to fight his corner.

I’d prefer to say that I’m ‘standing my ground’. The actual ‘fighting’ finished about a year ago. Presently the parties are respectively either licking their wounds or bleeding to death.

It would be nice if you introduced yourself (in way of your profile). Everyone here is interested in making friends.

We all enjoy a good debate.

I think, in those words, you speak for everyone here, Mark.

Hi M,
So how about removing your veil?

I take you up on a dare, Den. If I "reveal" my tru identity and if I'm not the person you think I am, You'll attend the forthcoming National kit and performance show at Donington wearing a red clownnose!
Time to put your money were your mouth is ;)

Interesting Challenge that, M.
But it contains a couple of fundamental problems.
Firstly, I haven’t a clue as to who you might be.
Secondly, I’m barred from the event in question.

1.I'm sure they let you in despite the barr if you came along with that nose strapped to your face=Problem 1 solved.
2.Then why raise questions/implications over my identity in the first place if you don't have a clue?=Problem 2 solved.

Problems solved.
Are you ready to put your money were your mouth is, Den? a simple yes or no will do? ;)

The questions have concerned why you’re being secretive. People who hide their identity usually have a hidden agenda – don’t they?

Even pirates nail their colours to the mast! That’s why firstly Vojx, then Mark, then I asked you to unveil yourself. We’d simply like to know who we’re talking to. Being good boys; we were all taught, as children, not to speak to strangers.

M

What is the issue?

We have explained why we are (I guess) being nosey as to knowing a little about you.

It is an innocent request, yet you target Den as if you have something against him.

Time out children! Who REALLY cares who's who as long as we discuss kit cars? After all thats what this forum is about, isn't it?

But too many forum threads have been ruined by people with hidden agenda's, so if he has nothing to hide why doesn't he come out in the open?
6 Sep 2006, 7:59pm
M you are under no obligation to reveal your identity so please don't feel that you have to.

This is a friendly forum and peeps bend over backwards to help each other so it's only natural for people to ask who they are speaking too if only out of politeness. If you want to keep that to yourself then I don't see any problem with it.

Well, it is not easy to discuss kitcars when the forum doberman selects you as his target, just beacause he doesn't share your opinion. Sorry if I helped derail this thread. My intention was to discuss kitcars, nothing else. :(
This identityfetish of yours was brought on me.

At least I tried to make it just a little bit more interesting, whith the clownnose, guess it revealed more about Den then me.

Finally a thought to JG:
How are you ever going to have a positive and productive forum If there's only room for one opinion and certain things is taboo because if brought up the doberman freaks.

M, on the subject of Den, frankly I value his input and whenever he's around we get a lively and worthwhile debate. Den has a lot of history in this industry and we need more like him to contribute to this forum.

As for how this forum will ever be productive and positive, well I think you are missing out if you don't think it is already.

M, Den, how about starting afresh?

John,
I know that you’re wise enough to see through the Doberman nonsense: but for the benefit of all, the following shows whose been barking at whom:-

Just red the article, Kitcarman.
Since all publicity is good publicity…. your doing a great job, promoting the RV Python, what´s your cut?

A "filbyfactfile", I mean really, how mature is that????

Hi Den, -No I won´t try to explain why it is immature to create a “Filbyfactfile” on the internet, you have to figure that one out for your self, maybe time will tell….

For my part, all I’ve done is to express my curiosity as to who it is that goads me to “be a man” and “mature” whilst also requesting me to act like a clown. Consistent he isn’t!

I’m still curious, but would like to move on. May I suggest that M starts his own thread in which he can raise his questions regarding the FilbyFactFile, Which Kit mag, Python and Donington, leaving the rest of us to discuss “Where We Are Going”.

is this a swipe at me questioning the intentions of M? grrrrrr....

i am on no-one's "side", i prefer coming to this forum to speak about kitcars and not to read comments designed to discredit or malign ANY individual

(not true totally - i take a lot of pleasure poking fun at Hawk Transformer owners)

hello, my name is Laurence (sorry. . .),not vojx, my friends call me lol :)

good PR is required, and an unbiased manufacturers' association

shouldn't be too difficult

OK, found me coat

its like a bl00dy playground in here, chill out guys and stop all the bitching.
You obviously have your differences, so just let them be and move on with things.
8 Sep 2006, 8:27pm
Hear, hear........

It's threads like this, that discredit this industry, magazines and forums.

John,
I suggest you lock this thread and throw the key away. This has nothing to do with kitcars.

This is spoiling the best kitcar forum on the internet.

Why is that, can you explain ?
9 Sep 2006, 6:56am
Italo.......I find myself in the unusual position again of agreeing with you.

I don't see anything wrong with active discussion - when these threads get locked the forum seems to die a death for a while.

Lets not get all politically correct in here. Please.

Yeah John, Lock it!!

We're too weak to make up our own minds.

Save us from ourselves!!!

Help!!!

I think he's trying to tell us that he has no willpower, Italo.

Despite the fact that he's not interested in the contents of this thread, he just CAN'T resist clicking on it.

:lol:

Or maybe he thinks that because he's not interested, we shouldn't be either...

Which is nice.
