What a fu(ken joke. If "ratings" and "post history" are all you care about well yeah why not leave. And as for SAU Vic, it's people like you who sit on the side lines and take shots but don't have the motivation to get of your arse and help that I despise.....

[RTFGTR]

Come on boys... I see cracks forming in our GREAT FORUM and COMMUNITY. No need to get narky... Good progress in forum / events and members section have been made since I joined only 8 months ago, but coming from someone who is "new" also... it can be hard to get involved and does take that extra effort. If it was not for the HUGE ammount of time I spent on the forums B4 my car arrived and all the GREAT help I received (I owe you guys heaps) I think after attending my first club meeting I would have also left. I think I made an extra effort to talk to people as I remember walking into the room at the Whithorse and not a single person said hello, hi, or what are you doing hear. It's enough to send a person straight out the door. Same thing happened the next meeting... I now know a few of you and I hope you don't take this the wrong way but I can see how a paid member and we have ALOT may be discouraged from arttending and putting up there hand to help the club. We have XXX members we get XX attending meetings and group x and group x talking at the meetings... thats the way I see it anyways.

Please don't get me wrong I love the SAU group, but dont get on this guys case because he is upset.

you guys ever heard about being diplomatic in your responses.

people are always going to have an opinion or issue with the club and are going to vent it on here in many ways that probably arent going to be to our or your liking, as reps of the committee you really should be a lot more tactful in your responses.

it reflects on the club.

[funkymonkey]

I am being diplomatic don't you have a temporary registration to be getting

[acsplit]

Well yeah thanks for yor contribution over the years Rob good luck and a break from the forums would do you the world of good.

take it easy

Hi Adz, I'm not swinging shots at anyone, and personally I reckon, each to there own including Rob... but I sort of agree with him, only because of my own experiences, about the VIC club being a little "slow" in getting things done. He may have other motives, or he may not...I dont know and dont care! But damn me, I remember when I had pretty much organised the "distributors license/deal" with eXedy, and the BFGoodrich deal, and all that was needed was some paper work from the club... which never eventuated, and what a runaround.

Again, no pun intended to anyone, I really do think you guys are genuinely passionate about the club and it's direction..

OK, look it really gets up my nose.

I'm posting this here because as an indiviual I do understand the concerns of club members. I can see from thier point that for the $50 they have paid that they have not received all that much and I do agree. What people dont see is all the time we spend whilst we are working our day to day jobs and after hours. Who ever thinks setting up a club is a simple task should think again, I've got letters from the Department of Justice, the government etc. It's one hell of a big job. Of course things are going to start of small and slowly but there has been progress made and I feel things will only get better with the sponsorship as this offers you disscounts etc and also puts more funds into the bank. Just out of interest do you guys have any idea how much CAMS charge us to be affiliated? It's a fair bit let me say that! But there is also a lot of work to be done in the events side too, we need locations, ways to get there, people to do the run and check it etc and there are only so many ideas to come up with. Thats why so much input is aksed for and out of 109 members most of the time you can count the response on one hand. You might wonder why I take things like this so personaly though hey, well it's because no matter how hard I try it never seems to be good enough, always seem to fall just that one step short.

So all I ask is next time before someone takes a dig, how about you approach the committee about the issuepersonevent that your having an issue with and sort it out like adults instead of a child. The best resolution for conflict is discussion and I'm sure that 99% of issues that usersmembers have could be sorted with very little fuss. As an member not a committee member I am more than willing to help anyone with any issues as I'm sure a lot of you know so as stared if there is a problem PLEASE LET SOMEONE KNOW.

Also there was a VERY good point made by RTFGTR, I remember when there was no club, just a bunch of people with cars cruising and I didn't know anyone at all. For the first couple of meets I came and stood alone not knowing anyone and it wasn't untill I introduced myself that I made some great friends so I do think a little more could be done there and I will look into that myself BUT it doesn't hurt to come up and say hi on your own

[inark]

also a good point... i know how much stress getting it all going u and the others went through, all im saying is replies could be a bit more tactful like this one.

Adz its not just about that, its sort of loosing a family album not that extreme but building it up again at the moment with the amount of hours I have spent on the forums. With something simple as keeping accounts right for users to logon without the hassle, people in this busy time of age don’t have time to f**k around or get f**ked around. Like I said I have gotten busier with work and studies making me spend less time in front of the computer, but still trying to contribute in “some ways” on the forums in the limited amount of time. I’ve been meaning to reduce the amount of time on the forums not because I don’t want to..just because I don’t have time!!! With my account gone it’s a good enough reason to give it a break.

Adz I have nothing against you, you’re a top bloke!! You’ve always helped me out with parts questions, going out of your way to help many times.

In General…my post was my opinion, I didn’t expect/need people to have a go at my opinion otherwise I wouldn’t of posted it.

SAU-forums are like the mafia: Just when I thought that I was out they pull me back in.
