Blimey you.........got banned :o

I had a post removed by the moderators over there once. It was because it was classed as advertising. I was breaking a Mk2 and giving the parts away to anyone that wanted to come over and get them. Even though the parts were free they classed it as advertising and removed it. I then got the hump and complained. It caused quite a lengthly and sometimes heated debate...........but I was never banned. Maybe they've got harder on people now.

i used too also post at clubgti but the fact that i got banned a couple of weeks back for moaning about there censoring has ment ive been here more where i can say just about whatever i like!  ;D

Nice one Vix,I see that you are in favour of exact point that some people are moaning at, I think they should take a look at other sites and try and live with restrictions imposed by others.
We DO have a good site, lets not forget that, by undermining the literary freedom that it allows with silly squabbles
I don't own this anymore - I just can't be arsed to change the picture

it would be nice if the main section of this site actually got updated now and then or contained useful articles written by the members on how to do things to their cars, etc. ;D

I must say it is very stuffy on clubgti, they like to stick to their own.
Beware that some of the 'expert' members on there do actually give completely inaccurate technical information.
In short clubgti is worth a browse, but don't take what they say as gospel, because it certainly isn't!
