Maybe but you cant go on MH Fun and call Boris Johnson a moron or that Brexit was the worst idea since Jacob Rees Mogg suggested that it was a good idea to employ the five year old children of the poor to become chimney sweeps again. From what I gather you will be hung, drawn and quartered for that. You can of course say that on here.

 

A forum is supposed to be a place foir the interchange of ideas not a soap box for a minority of vociferous politically motivated paranoid odd balls so the removal of the right to free insult and the return yo a Motorhome forum would be a distinct improvement.

 

So you want to remove "the right to free insult" Rich but in the same breath call the members of Chatterbollox "Paranoid odd balls"? (lol)

I’ve encouraged the forum Administrator several times to remove the Chatterbox forum completely. Its original purpose has been degraded and it’s just become a pseudo-political free-for-all that Freud could have written a book about. But so far my entreaties have fallen on deaf ears.

 

 

That proposal would have my support too. Maybe if more people supported the idea it might help persuade the administartors as Chatterbox no longer adds anything of value to this forum?

I'm surprised at you and Derek, neither of whom appears to have questioned why a ten year old obscure dead thread is suddenly resurrected by an fm who made just one post since registering an account four years ago to come on here advertising a rival motorhome forum.

 

You rarely post in Chatterbox Richard so naturally you support Dereks wish to shut down a sub-forum neither of you use, the logic of which escapes me but i'm sure others will figure it out. It's a way of encouraging Chatterbox fm's to use Motorhome Matters I suppose.

Your strange conclusion that 'naturally' I agree with Derek because neither of us use Chatterbox much is typical of your 2+2=5 obsession with your own odd ball theories.

The logic of your conclusion escapes you because it has no logic.

The real reason for me is that Chatterbox, once the light hearted fun side of the forum, is so riddled with looney left odd balls whose theories bear little relationship to reality that it has lost most of it's interest to me.

Derek has voiced his own views often enough and I should not be assumed to speak for him or associated to his own views.

As I say Chatterbox ihas become an irrelevent polital soap box for the few and it is time it is retired.

Don't believe me - just look at how few members actually come on here now compared to the wide spectrum of members that used to just a few short years ago.

So what you are saying is that there's people here with views you don't agree with and you think those views should be silenced?

 

Anyway as a newcomer I thought I'd look back to the golden days you described, I came across this gem, seems like racism was frowned upon even then, how very woke.

Why would anyone want rid of a sub-forum they have no interest in and don't use? It's only "irrelevant" to anyone who doesn't post there.

...Whether this site has improved on that I don't know as I'm quite happy on MH Fun and don't have the time to split between 2 forums.

 

So hi to those who remember me and I hope you are keeping well and safe.

 

 

As far as the Out&AboutLive forums are concerned, Mel, there has been minimal development software-wise since you left 4 years ago and, realistically, that’s likely to continue to be the case for the foreseeable future.

 

The Motorhome Matters forum (in my opinion) is probably still the best place for a rapid informed response to a technical motorhome-related enquiry, but I’m not sure that’s going to continue much longer as the ‘core’ of expertise (never that large) is contracting noticeably..

 

The O&AL forums have 2 active ‘volunteer’ moderators - a hang-over from when the forums were brought to their knees by spamming in 2016 - but the loathsome Chatterbox forum is a no-go area for moderation and the half dozen or so Chatterbox ‘specialists’ who dominate it are largely left to their own demonic devices. Occasionally one of them gets a yellow-card heave ho from the Administrator for extreme outrageousness but this doesn’t have any real long-term effect. I’ve encouraged the forum Administrator several times to remove the Chatterbox forum completely. Its original purpose has been degraded and it’s just become a pseudo-political free-for-all that Freud could have written a book about. But so far my entreaties have fallen on deaf ears.

 

Happy days...

 

 

I suspect CB would fry even Freud'd brain :D ..........

 

It's not a place for someone with a analytical mind like yours Derek ;-) ..........

 

Which is why you dont understand the fun we have taking the p*ss out of each other :-> ........

 

Even when it gets vicious only Ego's are hurt ;-) ..........

 

Ergo the bigger the ego the bigger the hurt.........and its those ego's that go running to you Mods or Warners *-) .............

Long term visitors to Chatterbox will be familiar with Trackers trademark sanctimonious hypocrisy - he preaches moderation, toleration and respect for other peoples views - and then refers to people who don't share his political views as " loony left oddballs ".

 

If anyone doesn't like the current garbage on Chatterbox, they are quite free to leave.

 

Most people have.

Politics, like beauty, lies in the eye of the beholder. The further to the right one's instincts lie, the more other people seem to be loony lefty types. The further to the left one's instincts lie, the more other people seem to be loony righty types.

 

I largely agree with Rich that too much Chatterbox content is politically biased, uninformative, tripe. Mostly posted by those who think that they are the only "true believers", and that no good ideas ever came from the "other (dark) side". That is why proper debate has been defeated in favour of political sloganising.

 

I also agree with Paul that writing off someone else's opinion on the ground that it comes from a politically flawed perspective is daft.

 

Does any side of the political spectrum have a monopoly on being right? Has any government, of any political complexion, ever been consistently right, or wrong?

 

Don't let the politics get in the way of the good? :-|

No need for that Tracker if Dave leaves it will just leave the gang of four patting each other on the back and we can just leave them to it.

 

It's called care in the community and Warners are doing everyone a favour by leaving them to rant to their hearts content.

Unfortunately we have the builders starting in a couple of weeks, and they start work at 8 am 8-) .........

Yes and fortunately, when the lefty stooges on here try to infiltrate Motorhome Matters with their so predictable political and anti patriotic tripe , they soon get slapped down.
