I'm afraid recent site updates have attracted some unwanted attention and derogatory messages from members of other sites, leading them to suspend my access to thier site, all of which I find rather sad. Clearly long standing issues exist for which I unfortunately don't know the history.

Putting that aside we do ( I believe ) wish to move our site forward and add value / features/ interest to our registered users and subscribers, which I am prepared to assist you with whilst support exists for this.

Name and shame!! What wrong with trying new stuff how will it improve else? Think it's good to have a piccy slide show somwhere on the site, also could you poss think of a rider profile section with proper face pics as opposed to avatars? These are good for forum posts but if pictures were up it may help with putting faces to names when out and about? :-B

Well Ive no idea whats happened or how this site, its members and how it looks and runs can upset, offend, cause jealousy to any other site, its members nor can I see why it matters??? If any other sites and their members have problems with you or this site and how its progressing then thats their problem and sad that it may be who gives a fu*k?!! If others have an issue then they do not have to log into SWB! I dont remember anybody having their arms twisted behind their backs to join :-o Ive hardly met anybody from here but for the most everybody seems cool and friendly so for those who have a problem PISS OFF< GET A LIFE AND DONT LOG IN!!!! well thats my rant over with :D

I was going to post a paragraph or so, but then saw Bullet and Badger have covered my thoughts reasonably well ......

It's a website - thats all, just a website. No-one makes money out of it, no-one (hopefully) gets hurt by it, no-one worries too much what one page or another looks like. We very rarely edit or censor posts (beyond the language auto-censor), and people are pretty much free to post what they want, when they want - and thats the way it'll stay. If folks lives are so shallow they get that upset about the way something looks, then they really need to get out more :roll:

Keep going Rowland, your taking a great job 8)
