StevePark Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 But I'm a Chanel No 5 smelling friendly troll and my New Years resolution is to not reply to any post that is off topic which will probably last until 1315 hours on Jan 1st That long? Totally agree with SCB. You just have to take a look at the Newcastle 2017 thread and see the threat of physical abuse against me to see some posters really don't have much to say, other than to threaten and personally abuse other posters, which is a great shame as the majority of posters on the BSF, discuss things in a right and proper manner. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foamfence Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 I thought I made it clear I was being childish. I usually find that children are more accepting but fair enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Potter 2 Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 How do you do that blue writing link to something ? It's probably because they are copying website address and pasting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE DEAN MACHINE Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 I hope I don't fall into this catorgory , I am opinionated in what I believe to be right but I feel I'm fair to other people's ideas and I'm not one to say oh that's rubbish and not at least explain why I feel they are wrong , I have had some abuse on here but I don't really rise to it , I've even had a promotor have a blast at me on here but I didn't bite but one thing I don't get is from time to time we get a good subject and it just descends into 2 or more posters trying to rip shreds of each other , totally pointless 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 (edited) How do you do that blue writing link to something ? TBH in doing this I surprised myself. It was a hit-and-miss effort on my part TBH. As I remember I just copied and pasted the item Links now showing and they came up in blue - I was, to say the least, rather but pleasantly surprised things worked as they did in the original Post for the Link. It's probably because they are copying website address and pasting it. That appears to be the answer Mad Potter 2. I copied and Posted the two Links that lead on to this thread. They are - Speedway News and Discussions. Fao The Big Cry Babies Edited December 12, 2016 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The White Knight Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 I find most people on here fair and balanced in their Postings. There are a few, (they know who they are), who are just bullies who seem to like making people's lives a misery for no apparent reason other than their own personal pleasure. However you can still have a decent discussion and even disagreement on here with most folks. I enjoy discussing things with most people. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 At first glance I agreed with everything SCB put in the original post. And then ... gustix got involved. And unfortunately, it makes me realise that I am a 5 year old, after all. There is only one side of ANY argument for me. It just HAS to be the opposite one to gustix. Every time. Even this comment? The first British speedway meeting is regarded as taking place at High Beech, Epping Forest, on Sunday, February 19, 1928. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluPanther Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 Crumbs that rules out about 50 per cent of the posters on here! Those 50 per cent are basically just one person 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I now find myself being persuaded by the counter claims for Droylsden. ...but what need is there for a contradiction Grand Central. I did allow for manouverabily in any response. I said regarded - not a postive for the venue at High Beech. Aside from Droylsden, there are some claims fora 1927 at Camberley, Surrey, in which Fay Taylor was one of the starters. But a better place for this debate - which could be lively and interesting - might be Years Gone By I assume you are familiar with these two Links - http://www.defunctspeedway.co.uk/Droylsden.htm http://www.defunctspeedway.co.uk/High%20Beech.htm ...and if you visit this blog and scroll down you will see a mention of Fay Taylor and the 1927 event at Camberley - described as a dirt track meeting. http://thevintagent.blogspot.co.uk/2008/06/vintage-dirt-track-racing.html Edited December 12, 2016 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulco Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 It's the off season , people have no actual live speedway to watch , so they pick holes in other club's team building , or in some cases even their own club's efforts . We'll get this Christmas bollocks over with , then the countdown to March can begin and we'll all get back to normal ......................trolling and abusing opposition riders and fans , that kind of thing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 You're posting on a discussion forum, the important word being "discussion" if you don't want people disagreeing with you or discussing don't post. People who disagree with you are not trolls. If someone says you are wrong explain why you're right. Stop behaving like 5 year olds who can only see one side of an argument or discussion. Now we have had some afternoon fun! shall we get back on topic as outlined by SCB in regard to Posts on a discussion forum? your posts carry more weight than most because a) you've actually raced to a reasonable standard and you clearly think things through before posting that smiley thing is supposed to say b but now it won't go away There you go ~ killed it for you. Well 'the smiley thing' is still showing for me! I think all you have done is delete it from the quote but not the original message? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solrac Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 Ultimately this is a forum, nothing more, nothing less. It really doesn't matter that much in the general scheme of things, so if people think they are being 'bullied' and 'lives being made a misery' then I would suggest their problems are somewhat deeper than the gold old BSF. If you get a bit of clog from some of the fine readership on here than give some back to them or ignore them. Simples. I occasionally have an exchange with everyone's favourite right wing japester Speedibee but I have yet to cry myself to sleep about it. Ultimately the BSF is a decent place to while a way a bit of time and catch up with the Speedway happenings. I'm an Eastbourne man and our crowd is anywhere between 400-800 i'd guess. There's probably no more than about 20 Eastbourne posters on here so I doubt the Dugards will lose too much sleep if I declare that we should boycott the burger van. The BSF - A fine place with some fine people but don't take it too seriously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a few good posters, but there are also a fair few clowns and wind up merchants and nasty bits of work on here as well. But you just let it go over your head. I see SCB had to have his little dig in an earlier post, but thats his problem. Edited December 12, 2016 by Starman2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
