I'm removing the obviously libellous stuff, and the warn button is now in use. Frankly, I and the rest of the sraff are bored with the daily pruning, multiple warnings being received and trying to decide what's discussion and what's trolling because too many people are treading a very fine line. To save myself the consideration any more I'll make the following statement for you to take on board. ANY attacks on anyone - poster, driver, team, officials or moderators will receive a warn. All other attempts to turn this into a DISCUSSION thread are falling on very deaf ears.

It was starting to get a bit too tichey.....I could see Wooley banging his fist on the table.
I do think some on the posts were a bit to pointed and harsh. Best we get on with it in a more constructive and positive manor.
There must be lots of rumors around about teams and the changes that happen at the end on the season.
I have herd one Holden driver is thinking of comming over to the blue side.......smart man.........

Seriously Mr Woolley I dont disagree that personal attacks are not on however here in little old NZ (& Aus) us folks do by nature engage in humerous type banter boadering on rudeness whenever possible. Add to that a dose of emotion considering whats befallen our championship this year & whats been listed on this site recently is mild when compared to the talk on the town.

Mr KM we should take Woolley out on the "drinks" one nite. Like most Poms he might just be supprised about the amount of banter and removed autocensor dodge we give each other. He might start to enjoy it after a while. My new pommy tradsman who has been in NZ for 6 months is just starting to get into " our way " but still finds it hard.....hes comming right

Been there several times and coming back. I thoroughly enjoy a bit of banter over the odd Speights or Monteiths. You'd be equally surprised to know we do the same over here. However, this is not a pub, it's an international board, and your comments don't change a thing from my last post. This is not banter in this thread - the world over, libel and slander are described the same and as a forum we have to take action to try to prevent it, as well as personal attacks on all sides. This particular thread is taking up way too much of my time and I am bored at opening up my mail box to find ½ doz warns and a couple of complaining PMs, most of which I find I agree with. I also recognize autocensor dodges, and clearly so do you, else you'd have just typed the word instead of replacing it.

So, to restate, don't do it. Gently poking at my moderating however humourously isn't impressing me, and you should be aware that all of the staff have discussed this thread and are in agreement that the type of posting cannot be allowed to continue. This is literally the last public warning, and this thread has become a zero tolerance zone as we're no longer willing to try and work out if a thread is meant to be humorous or not. If it looks like an attack of any sort it will go, and it will be warned for.

Keep it clean team!! If this thread is shut down we have lost free speech on
these issues that concern us all.
And....if it is shut down I will be forced to take my first Morris Dancing lesson at the Ekatahuna Car Club.

Could you make enquiries please as to costs etc to form a Morris Dancing
Team. How many in a dancing team & any special uniforms/gear required.
Could be a good option for next year.
Maybe if we get well organised we can get some promo work done
thru AutoCar mag. Will we all have to provide a Morrie 1000 fully spec'd
& checked as a T car ?

The Falcon currently has 10.5:1, whilst the Holden has 10:1. The ford also has .020" greater valve lift

Hi Mr Flying Duck, welcome back to the NZ scene... Are you suggesting that John McIntyre is to drive for Talleys next season??? As you obviously have your 'beak' very close to the ground... does that also mean Shannon Obrien wont be back next year??? if that is indeed the case... would Team Talleys, new team manager be Clyde Collins??? So many questions so little answers...please help us out Mr Duck......By the way what is the latest on the HRT scuttle-buttle????????????

Right. You've been warned and warned and warned. You've decided not to listen. You've caused massive amounts of work for the moderators and have now put this site in a situation where there are threats of legal action.

I apologise to those who genuinely wish to discuss NZ motorsport. I'm afraid you'll need to find another forum that is prepared to put up with the behaviour of those who have ruined that opportunity for you here. It's very sad to note that, based on the postings, at least some of the protagonists are involved with the sport offline as well. I can only hope that their online behaviour is not an indication of how they behave in the "real world" or I suspect that NZ motorsport is not going to survive the experience.

Thread closed. No further discussion of NZ motorsport for the next 7 days. Anyone opening a thread on this subject, or trying to divert other threads onto the subject, will be summarily banned. No warning, no appeal.

In 7 days time we will review and if people still want to have a discussion, we'll try again. But at the first sign of a problem, the thread will be closed and Tenths will no longer be prepared to host any further discussions of NZ motorsport.

I'm very sorry to have to do this. It's a first in Tenths history and it's deeply sad that the naysayers in this thread care so little about the sport they profess to have an interest in that they would drag it into disrepute in such a public way.
