As some may agree. I've spent way to much time in this tread... So well see you all later.

Those who might care to continue the discussion of post placement and the cosequent highjacking behavior, please join me in the miscellaneous section under OFF Post.I should of done this many post ago. Sorry
Roy

In my humble opinion, I feel you need to be less biased, and stop running with the click,and I dont meen the track. How's that for balls. I am sorry it had to come to this. sometimes you just got to say what you got to say.
 
Roy, no problem.  I find your comments valuable and I appreciate your sharing them with me.

I think that my comments about hijacked threads were perhaps poorly worded and apparently ill-placed.

I skipped the Pizza today... I feel kinda bad, Please check the showcase spoiler section for more info (Hijack, Gna,Gna,Gna)
Also sorry to the Farmers
Cheers...
F.C.

Dang.
Dave, I haven't witnessed you poorly wording or ill-placing anything since I've been here.  Quite the opposite you've too often been the still, quiet voice reeling in some of our more rambunctious moments with that reason thing you do so well.  I don't know if you asked for or were approached with the opportunity to become Moder Dave but you did step up and do it well always with respect and gentleness.
Oh, I'm sorry, am I getting off the subject?  I just thought as long as the wet blanket has been thrown I may as well pop in.

Dave--I know I'm very new around here, but I would like to second bracheen's comment: I haven't witnessed you poorly wording or ill-placing anything since I've been here...I don't know if you asked for or were approached with the opportunity to become Moder Dave but you did step up and do it well always with respect and gentleness...  
 
Please keep doing what you're doing, exactly the way you've been doing it!!

oh oh oh Poor Dave, looks how well he's taking it. Come on Kiddies lets all go to his rescue. What a pathetic level this tread has fallen to.
Hey Dave have you had drills on how to handle descent?
(That is really not where I wanted to take this)
However since you insist!  If it quakes like a duck! H'mm. I know that I said I was out of here. However I couldn't resist this one.
 WOW a real live G-man I'm impressed. Welcome Eric! Let me know if I should be shaking in my boots right about now HUH.
Quick Scotty beem me up before they find the feathers.

Dave our moderator wrote: Well, in the history of our little forum here, I don't think I've chimed in on a motorcycle thread before; but I thought perhaps I might post in response to a couple comments above.  
 
Dave it wasn't a motorcycle tread it was a tread about a bass player and his Alembic at a motorcycle ralley. As moderator it should of been second nature for you to see that the treat had been highjacked.  
please don't you and your buddy's turn this on me to.

See See I can play the oh poor me card to.
OH oh hear come the feathers. Quick Scotty

Well Dave must be a Day person OR deep in his bunker planning covert operations.

Well do you think dave is a day person? Or!! Is he  deep in his bunker planning covert operations?

I was just making some suggestions. Since the subject of hijacking had been brought up, I thought I would share some things I had been thinking of for a while. Hijacking isn't necessarily a bad thing, and it often can turn out to be a good thing, taking a discussion to a subject that can be helpful to members. For instance, a thread on a particular speaker cab might morph into a discussion on ohms and how that relates to matching power amps and speaker cabs generally. So I don't think I meant to lay down any hard and fast rules or to suggest that any posts made in the past were particularly wrong.
 
Now tell me honestly! Is this not the style of a politician ?

Roy,
 
This is the style of a careful moderator. Some of us here appear to have tempers, and it is very wise of Dave to tread carefully.
 
Mind you, he usually doesn't think twice before adding his .02 to the jolly nonsense.

Adriaan,
This has indeed gotten out of hand. So I am going to try and reduce this situation to its lowest denominator.
Fact1: It is very easy to get all slap stick all over a post. Makes for a great defense.
or as some would say, turn things into a more lighthearted mood.
Fact2: We have guidlines to fall back on to keep things civil. They are our constitution. They should not be toyed with or manipulated. Not even from our moderator.
Fact3: Dave has taken on a tough job, if he choses to do it in the best interest of all its members.
Fact4:Dave jumped right in and acted like he was just another member having a good time.
Well posting as moderator does not allow you that privilege.    
It would be wiser of Dave to lay down the constitution of this forum. Not play politics
P.S. Dave this is the last time I address you in the third person. I am a fellow club member and demand to be treated as such.
Roy
