    Notice the lack of cheering? :P

    Honestly, I'd love to see a few of the blokes from that site over here. There's a couple in particular that REALLY know their stuff! I think they'd be far better off with all of the awesome people here to mingle with and chew the fat. There are certainly some real knobs over there though, I won't mince my words but I'll try and remain someone family friendly.

    But alas, it doesn't matter what I think. I'm just glad this site is rock solid with an active crew of moderators who are patient and helpful and an Admin who is on top of 99.9% of any issues that arise.

    I'm not going to comment to much as I have already expressed my opinion on Patrol4x4. The owner/admin is no where to be seen and all we hear is it will be all fixed soon. How long has it been since the site got infected? A: Way to long!.
    This is a bit of a shame because it was a really good forum.

    One thing I can say is the owner/admin of this forum is 100% behind this website and will do anything in his power to support it, maintain it, back it, protect it and will also do anything to look after his members.

    I have had dozens of PM's from the other forum members supporting my comments. This explains it all.

    That's all

    I am willing to throw Link some slack over there. Yes, he's been away and things may not have been as good as they could have been. But chit happens and a guy has to take care of his life before a business. The mods there like mods ion most forums are pretty decent guys volunteering their time and expertise. Most people are welcoming but there are trolls that surface in every forum. It is very friendly here, but I don't see why it has to be an either or thing.

    Mate, I totally understand. Sh1t does happen but most businesses or forums for that matter have back-ups in place for these situations to reduce the impact on their customers/members. Unfortunately the mods and an Admin have no idea what is going on or where the site is hosted to be able to help. This is unfortunate as the site has been one of the best around.

    Also, this is not about this forum or that forum but its about the support/feedback people are getting from the BOSS! and I am more then comfortable this site is supported100% by the boss!

    I just want to say I have nothing against the Patrol4x4 site or their members or mods but I think the owner needs a good kick up the arse no meter what has happened.!

    Fair comment I only read about other Trolls in the paper on the weekend (different to the nissan ones ) but even so there's no reason to tolerate w@nkers/ trolls. That was the first forum I signed upto. Reckon I've got two posts there. Came here and never looked back first impressions count IMHO in saying that people are fine to roam where ever they want ay everyone marches to a different tune be a funny ol joint if they didn't. I've met one of the mods from patrol4x4 and he seems like a top bloke willing to help.

    IF YA DONT GET STUCK YA AINT TRYIN HARD ENOUGH........OR YA TOOK THE CHICKEN TRACK

    I appreciate the positive feedback everyone but I am closing this thread as I don't want to go down this path.

    Let's just hope that they sort the problem out as I'm sure there are some good minded die hard fans on that site which would be bleeding if all that data was lost. Same as if it happened here.
