It was deleted because so many people on here, admin included, do not want to fix the issues or know about them. They would rather sit back and complain about things and that way nothing ever gets done.
This site is as much to blame for the state of bowling in Australia as anything else. It encourages narrow mindedness.
Many people on here ADMIN INCLUDED have put enough hard earned money and time into the sport over the years to try and make it go forward or better yet just even keep it afloat...
To be quiet honest GARY from MILDURA if that's what your name really is, ADMIN along with many other forum members are pretty fed up with your antics and negative argumentative attitude on this site...And until such time you fill in the required info needed to be a forum member all your posts from now on will be deleted...
The thread was removed BECAUSE the Author of the quoted paragraph asked me to remove it, as since it's rebirth yesterday thanks to Wayne has caused him some grief, perhaps even his job...those comments were made over 2 years ago and do not reflect his views now...
When are people going to learn that solving "defamation of character" problems with threats of legal action is about as effective as trying to make friends with someone by smashing them in the head with a bat?And if I delete THIS thread too, another one will start, and we'll all be traveling around the same vicious circle, and all parties involved are going to look like tools...
So here's my advice to all the people who will threaten, in future, to sue me.
Try resolving your dispute in civil manner first. I'm happy to act as a mediator between the two parties if necessary. I don't like disputes, I like resolutions. If the two parties involved in THIS dispute would like me to try to mediate a settlement between them, I'm happy to.
Until then, as long as this little black pleb/duck is running TB, you're welcome to say whatever you like, so long as it falls within the Guidelines!
