Thank you. My speciality.
It started off as a lightly humourous(sp) post but now you've gotten into the usual state of pointless internet rage that often affects the forum and the reason why many of us don't post much up. It all gets a bit tedious, so once and for all; I don't do serious, life's too short. Many mk5 and mk6 owners will know exactly what I mean and the comments were there for their digestion.

I'm sure you'll come back with a razor sharp comment but as for me, I'm going back on topic.  :kiss:

Why is it that the ASs always has to ruin a thread? I am very wrong.
Daz has started an interesting poll and has requested some suggestions.
He is a new member and should be welcomed, supported and respected.

Yes, a ruined thread, because I was the one that put the degrogatory comment. :rolleyes: If you cared to read half of my posts in this section you would see that I am generally helping technical issues and giving options, but then who am I if I don't own a mk6 eh? :lipsrsealed: Oh yes, and mod of the tdi section, must be because I'm an arse. :rolleyes:

Lol. Internet rage, yes, I am definitely raging right now. :laugh:

I really don't need to "come back" with a comment now after your post do I? :lipsrsealed:


Daz - Sorry to go off topic, but people who are too pussy to say what they mean wind me up. My original thread was a suggestion if you wanted a general (more accurate) concensus of the entire forum

AS:
In my defence, I was using a Blackberry, was in bed writhing in pain and made a vital error for which I apologise to you unreservedly. :embarassed:
You may flog me on another thread and I'll take it lying down, like a man and without so much as a wimper.
Sorry! :lipsrsealed:

PM'd you.

Okay, you've compelled me to go off topic-ish again.
You did come back with a comment and I've hightlighted it.
Who's being pussy-ish? That was just as indirect a remark as my little attempt at humour that started you off. Are you referring to me? You, a mod having an equally indirect assault on a little humour that I put into a post? Or have I got hold of the wrong end of the stick like you did to my post? If you thought my post was aimed at you being a non mk6 owner having posted earlier in the thread then I apologise if that was the perception you got, it was far, far from the case and I can see the angle you were taking whilst I also understood the angle the OP was aiming at. My little remark was aimed at those one or two members who appear in this section once or twice a week when they're bored and stir up the sh!te then vanish again for a while. I think they think all mk6 owners are either in debt up to the eyeballs with car loans or absolutely loaded. For some members that is the case but many of the rest of us are just normal hard working people that happen to be in a position to buy an overpriced shopping car after spending many years working their arses off to be in that position. I work a hell of a lot of hours to afford my little luxury on 4 wheels. No loans and no company assistance and a job that is way way off being a higher rate tax payer.
Daz Auto and other members on here who want to post threads such as this which are aimed primarily at users of this particular section of the forum only, I would suggest always put ''mk6 owners / section users'' in the title of the thread. Everyone is very welcome in this section (apart from pussy me it seems) but it is nice to see a general concensus of this section rather than the whole forum which is a large community, this I'm assuming is what the OP was after.
Now there have been many incidents that have grated me on this forum with pointless bickering that often puts me off posting, and now I've inadvertantly dropped myself into it and have annoyed myself and probably everyone else, so I've said my bit, possibly been called a pussy by a moderator  :grin: and therefore am going to go into self imposed exile for a bit (again), those that use it, see you on the other forum that came about last time a current model Golf section self imploded on here..... :smiley:

(and should I have to explain myself yet again, yes, I typed this tongue in cheek too)
