See ya guys.
Martin

oh dear... see ya boss

[jboweruk]

Yeah, don't go mate, I've seen you help too many people. And stuff in writing can often be read as an insult when that's not what the person who wrote it meant at all. I'm one of the worst for taking things to heart. Just take a break, think about it, maybe even read and re-read some of the posts. Add a few smilies to what you read. Then you'll often see that what's been said just didn't come out right. I'm guilty of doing that, sometimes we all read it the way we mean, and forget that maybe a smilie can alter the meaning altogether. I'm sure people here have read things the way I didn't mean, and if I ever offended anyone on that then I am truly sorry. I never mean to.

[richieclarkie]

Not sure whats happened but hope you are OK mate. Hope you change your mind.

It's a fact in Forums.. We have all the time to think what we type and yet we still post messages or comments that can be intreptated in many way by other users..

Then the RED MIST rises and we in there to tapping away... not really meaning what we say/type

Another point is smileys.. they have a powerfull way to of conveying the wrong attitude sometimes.........

Nice Heli mate or

Nice Heli mate

See the difference

This happens in all forums...................

real Shame

[gazza]

What's with all the tree hugging softly softly crap? The guy gave it and couldn't take it back. Plain and simple. He's turned every thread he's become involved in into into a warzone by insulting people.
Let him **** off to another forum if he wants to.
All You're all doing is giving the guy the attention he so obviously craves Ohhh I'm selling all my fleet now You've all upset me

[pompeyjohn]

Gazza, Gazza, Gazza.... wanna hug?

[gazza]

All I'm saying is there's no need for any of this. We're all here to help each other and pass useful information on in the hope we can all learn something.
There are some fantastic contributers to this forum, and I'm grateful to each and every one of you for any help You've given me along the way.
And yes, that includes you Martin & I thank you for that. But I'm sure I'm not alone in saying that openly assaulting businesses and forum members ain't the right way to do things- It can cause untold damage.

Sure, we can all have disagreements & debates. The world would be a pretty boring place if everyone had the same opinions & idea's.
I think we need to draw a line under all of this as it's now been blown out of epic proportion. If Martin wants to sell his helis and not return to this forum because of the events of recent days then I'm sorry but I see it as nothing else but an attention seeking exercise & I pay no creedance to it & all this sucky sucky pussyfooting makes me sick.

If however, he decides against jacking it all in then great. I think it would be a shame for HIM to let it all go just because he's ****ed a few people off & they've let him know it. We all make mistakes & say things we don't mean in the heat of the moment but we hold our hand's up, apologise, & move on.

[gazza]

Go on then

Gazza, Gazza, Gazza.... wanna hug?

[Thomas]

Go on, sod off and don't come back neither!!!!!!



........ but I guess as you've gone you'll never read this so I can say what I like about you now

Joking apart, I've not really followed your posts but saw what was going on, people can be very insulting from the safety of there armchair but never at the field to you face and there is a reason for that, remember not to judge those until you met them - Classic example is Phil, a few on here thought he was a dick head but said to me after they met him that he was actually a good bloke, Ash being one of them, and some of the bun fights they had were a great read, I still reserve judgement

I've been trying to quit the internet habit of the hobby for ages and never quite managed it, just too easy to make a coffee (now cold), relax and see what's going on - so good on you for giving it a go but expect you'll be back, like Chris before you, and may even read this garbage but as I remember you are not bigger than me so I'm not afraid.

[Ashley Davis]

I'm sure I said he was a dick head after meeting him......... just kidding
He's a very nice chap (who has promised me a coffee at Charmouth)

[kevinh]

Well said, if someone chooses to throw all their toys out of the pram then let them, gives the rest of us something to laugh at.

P.s. Its good to see that as we all get older we get more childish.......
