I haven't seen one for a while Pino so it must be getting better, or its far too quiet to get anyone heated up.

One of the great things about this board, and sometimes a source of consternation for the Mods, is that it's very multicultural and for many members English is a second language."Old roats am jake mit goats."

Definately need a few more posters.
I enjoy the banter. I think as long as people use a smilies to indicate banter as opposed to pure abuse, then its all good.
There are many old posters I miss. Although one is now back.I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

Sometimes they have to remain proactive and dish out some warning and/or infractions to keep the train on track before the accident happens.
As a side note, if it is being considered by Mark.....
I go to a couple of forums that have a single section each that they consider the "War Room" if you will. They reduce the amount of moderation in those particular sections, but have a very visible warning that if you can't deal with more harsh discussions and arguments stay out. They still enforce basics and have limits on the stupidity they tolerate, such as language and taking the personal stuff too far. They also require that only registered logged in members can view the pages, so visitors and kids can be kept out of those areas.
Just a thought.
You're a 100% right. FIA should rattle the manufacturer's cage. Take the compromise or go. Rally 1s are dead in the water. If manufacturers don't agree, make Rally 2s as they are now the top category...
