Love you too.
 
I am receipt of the following communication from a poster called john5655. I don't care for this sort of ad hominem attack, especially not by poison pen, or keyboard, letter. Since the originating thread is now closed I offer it here:

Perhaps, john5655, you would like to continue the debate over driving license issuance procedures in a more professional manner in public. It reflects badly, if accurately, on your trade that you do dirty little things in secret corners.

He has got a point.

I suspect this thread will be closed, with the advice that you take this to PM's.

This is really just another excuse for you to have a go at the police and the people that carry out that role really :sneaky:

I can't believe this is the first time you have been insulted either - ad hominen or otherwise - why publicise this one?

Actually it is the first time anyone has chosen to send hate mail rather than to come right out and say what they think. Shabby. Not the action of a decent poster.

That a corrupt life has corrupted his view of humanity? He now thinks everyone is a shit?

Not exactly on duty on this forum though, is he? :)

I'm with dbd33 on this one. I think it was a cheap shot.

Site rule number 6.

I'm rather surprised the thread is still here. ;)

Is it me, or aren't there an awful lot of threads being closed these days? I'm not online during working hours at the moment, by the time I log on sometimes it seems the discussion has been shot down already. Just an observation.

I had the very same thought the other day. They are super quick to pounce on us these days...don't let us get our teeth into a good argument...:rofl:

100% agree with you on this one ! As i`ve not been around for a few months i have really noticed the difference !

IMHO i feel we should be able to have a balance of opinion and not just get cut off when things get a bit heated........after all i thought it was supposed to be a "discussion" forum :confused:

If somebody gets "hate mail" then why shouldn't they have the right to bring it up on here ?

If we all had the same opinions then this forum would be very boring indeed !

Because it breaks the site rules that you all signed up to! What's so hard to understand about that?!

The only threads that are deleted or closed are those that break rules, or that we get numerous valid complaints about. Simple as that.

And, as this one clearly breaks site rule no. 6, I am closing it for that very reason. Sorry peeps! ;)
