RSK 0 Report post Posted July 15, 2011 Hello there, No longer an Alfa owner nor a member of the forum of the same name but noticed that this brave new endeavour was under way so thought I'd sign up and take a peek. Not sure how participative I'll be but it's nice to see a few names I recognise, and also to happily note the absence thus far of one or two others Anyway, all the best with the site, early signs seem encouraging.

Morgan 46 Report post Posted July 15, 2011 Welcome aboard, RSK. From what I knew of you at the other place, I can safely say I think you'll like it around here. Our mantra is that we're a grown-up forum, designed for grown-ups, by grown-ups. Well, I say "our mantra"... I just made it up, in truth. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RSK 0 Report post Posted July 16, 2011 Kind words all - thanks very much indeed. It's certainly interesting watching the steady stream of new recruits. Just to add my 2p I never really had a problem with AO the institution and certainly not with the mods. I just found that the disproportionate volume of certain people's voices which was effectively tacit bullying just wore me down over time. As an institution I thought it was great, I commend Ian on what he achieved with the site and am sure that the two sites can, and will, happily co-exist. I sometimes think of AO in the way as I do America - I love America it's just Americans who piss me off Anyway that's the philosophising over and done with.........

Morgan 46 Report post Posted July 16, 2011 Anyway that's the philosophising over and done with......... Philosophising is as welcome as all other forms of chit-chat on AlfaDriver, RSK. However, if anyone takes soapboxing too far, we have a special smiley. This one: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
