I have come to the conclusion that this is probably the more diplomatic way to go. I am going to take a break from here for a while.

Reason being is there have been a few things that have really gotten on my nervs lately and rather than lose my shit and get banned I will walk away. At this point its only a break so hopefully it all cools down and all will end well.

To those out there a tip, read the posts before commenting, comment on something if you know the facts or know where to find the info- dont post what you think you know, and stick to your word- dont condemn something one week but then be its biggest fan the next (people remember this shit)

Cheers to all the great guys (it goes without saying) Ill try for a month.

All the best and keep up the work.

Thats not good at all mate hope you cool down soon! From what little we have chatted it shows your a smart bloke and the members that are around you speak highly of you with alot of respect on various post. It would be a great shame to loose someone with your experience over something trivial such as a comment that someone has made!

Personally i would pull them up on it if i knew better not fir anything just that most people believe what have been told is correct and don't know any better, thats what make this forum such a great place. Just about everyone is honest and gives the facts that are needed to answer the question without beating around the bush too much. But you cant help if people make assumptions thats just how it is.

You take care mate and hope i get a chance to meet you when you come down to Melb in the coming weeks.

Cheers

Mate I know where your coming from. I have been keeping an eye on the forums but have not posted for a couple of months until the other day for the same reason. Take a break but keep on visiting to keep up to date with the Qld group and outings. See you soon.

To be honest blokes I have no idea what is going on or what has caused this?

If there is something that I can do then please let me know as both of you are friends and knowledgable members that we respect so can one of you please PM me with the issue?

Don't vent to me, it's bad enough we have to sit beside each other heading to Mexico (Victoria)! lol

Hear ya loud and clear mate, and fully support your right to make the decision. You're a wealth of knowledge and knowing you personally, a bloody good lad .. need to learn to drive a fourbie, but a bloody good lad none the less!!

Chat to you over the weekend and we'll work out the flights etc - in the meantime, you can provide me all the right information to post up here for the things you normally respond to, and I'll take the kudos for a month!!! lmao

I know it'd be something serious to get a guy like you offside mate.

Bloody Hell Mat!!

Here I was been thinking for a few days that NissanNewby probably needs a Name Upgrade? Something like "nissannewbybutknowsabit" or "daman" or "notreallyanewby" and hear you are taking a break!!

Damn!!

Mat, I have the highest respect for you mate, I really do understand what your saying and think I even know some of the stuff your over, shrug it off mate, keep it real and keep the forum accountable mate. Your contribution to this place is First Class mate. 2730 posts in 12 months is a testament to you mate, of the highest calibre. Always interested in what you write here bud. It would be such a shame for us to miss out on your knowledge base long term.

Happy to have a chat in private and really hope your still coming to Melbourne? Can't wait to have a brew bud.

Pm me mate and happy to chat often.

As a Moderator here I have to try my best to keep it real but keep everyone happy too. The membership here is also generally very good at self moderating and I often see members pull other members into line with respect.

Goes for everyone, there is a "report post" button in every post. fYI, if you press that then each of the Mods will receive an email advising of the posts, the thread that your concerned about and you have an opportunity to give a paragraph comment about your concern about the post. Use it people!

Mat don't go too far bud, you'd be missed here. Come down to Vic for a beer and let's chat about a name change

Cheers Darren

I have no idea whats gone on newby, but i am a true believer, it takes a bigger man to be able to just swallow ones pride, and walk away from a conflict, rather than to brew up some sort of keyboard war, some of us do know how hard it is to do this sort of walking , so for this, you have my understanding and respect.

Not that you didnt have my respect already mate, you have proved to be amogst the most generous and helpful people ive met on this forum.

At this point id launch in with stuff about you not quitting the forum etc, but as i see Scotty has seen this thread, i know 100%, there is no F*%$!ng way he will ever let that happen, so i dont need to say anything else :clapping:

23rd March 2013, 01:01 AM

Hi Mat. Like the rest of the guys here I have the highest respect for you. An absolute wealth of knowledge and you've helped me so much with information and advice on my new car. Can't wait to meet you (and to a lesser extent, Scotty.) at ABs in a couple of weeks!

If you're happy and you know it tap a post!

I do understand where you are coming from and the need for a short break.

This is a forum mate, people "say" things on the internet,that they would not say face to face or the written word can be easily misunderstood in how it is meant.

There are two particular threads running on here that far out weigh any silliness going on in others.

You are obviously a clued up bloke and your input would be sadly missed by the majority.

Now ,I don`t know what has gone, nor where things went astray, but those two threads on their own should make people have a think about situations that really are not that important.

Hope you stick around bud, your choice though.

Hey all.

I'm done. I have been thinking about this for a while. I'm leaving. This is a great forum and its just that a forum. A lot of things have been getting to me and before anyone says it I know I should just try and ignore it but I need to focus on other things. Thanks to all on here who have been absolutely awesome and to the mods you guys are the best and sometimes don't get the credit you guys deserve. The mods certainly make this place what is.

Cheers guys and good luck with everything.

As you posted just before midday I really hope you are going to jump on this arvo and say April Fools,

Mate I don't know you, but I have read your informative posts, I have also seen how you regularly put your hand up to help out a forum member in need. THIS MAKES YOU A VERY VALUABLE COMMODITY IN THIS COMMUNITY!.

Sure take a break, get your stuff together, I realize there are greater priorities in life than just this forum, but please come back.

You will be missed by people such as me, Please take care and hopefully we'll see you back here soon.

Regards and Thanks

Having said that though I'm just wondering: does it have to be a case of "all or nothing"?
Please don't take this the wrong way but is you leaving a bit like taking you bat and ball and heading home?
Come on mate, stay:-)

Well to say I am pist off and disappointed is an understatement.... If this is because of other members then I say (as my wife does) you are the bigger man.. dont let them get to you!!

Ignore the crap and go with the good, you are a good man and I would hate for us good members (I hope I am one) to lose you while the others stay.

There are members on here I like but rarely share any threads with but when I meet up enjoy there company, then there are the ones that give me the shits and I just choose not to get drawn into crap with them and if they follow me around the forum I just ignore there posts and stick with the facts.

If your reasons go beyond here and are life issues then so be it but if it is because of certain members then I say stay as you will run into these people all your life and you need to learn how to deal with them or tune them out all together.

I just dont feel the good should lose out on your knowledge your good will and your humor..... stay mate!!!!
