I read the start of the thread but didnt catch the end of it so didnt realise he'd taken it personally.
I have to admit I was very surprised at Georges reaction to the comments and actually thought it was a bit out of character to be honest.
Makes me wonder if he is alright. Does anybody know him personally or lives close by him......?
Dave, I must say George is a true gent. I had the pleasure to visit George, a couple of times and what great visits I had. He is a man that would help anyone, and give great advice.
He spend very much of his time alone, and does have health problems. He may not speak to anyone in a single day, so it is important the forum gave him daily acsses to stay
involved in the pigeon world. I would say is outburst was out of character. Because I know George is better than that.

I feel this will be the downfall of this site, it is becoming a case of lack of respect for other members views. Think about it.

If you read the topic when George left can you say if I was rude in anyway or was George rude don’t forget he said the site was better before Mike and myself joined
I didn’t say a word then as you know he used the F word so where was the respect shown to me by George ? It didn’t bother me one bit my toys never came out of the pram so he left on his own no one was rude or drovr him away

He will be back anyway
Neil I never got to read the posts as they had been deleted so cannot comment
Not sure what mod edited then Buster but it wasn’t George as I posted a reply when he swore reminding him that children could be looking in and that was deleted aswell
It doesn’t worry me but my point it there was a total lack of respect there which seems to be of no concern only George leaving seems the issue
I locked the topic and deleted 2 posts. The one by George using the F word and the reply of yours Neil, but only because it was a reply to George’s post and included the F word in the quote. Just felt it was the right thing to do.
Back just enjoying club racing for the time being.

Totally agree Andy that’s the right thing to have done my point is in that topic only one person was rude and insulting and it wasn’t myself or Mike it was George unfortunately and I know older members will not want to hear that but it’s the truth .

Neil, can you just let it go, He said She Said. So George made a mistake, its not the end of the world. You have done it in the past, and no one made a big thing about it.

Why did you start this topic Devo ?
Funny enough looks like you couldn’t let it go but wanted your opinion when no one else was bringing it up
Maybe take your own advice instead of starting it up again and leave it alone

Neil, I read most of the comments and didnt think you was rude
or offensive in anyway, infact I thought you was very polite considering Georges misplaced comments.
I thought the mods done well to lock the thread to stop things festering and getting out of order but by the sound of it George had already got the hump - dont think anyone was offensive or rude.
Very kind of you to say so Dave

Few things i would like to clear up about my current absence from here.
It has nothing to do with what anyone said. I dont think there were any bad intentions from anyone inside the post that we were discussing in. Of course i felt a bit misunderstood in the moment but i do still respect their opinion that they shared and there were no heart feelings involved in the discussion atleast from my side of things i still like everyone here and respect everyone. i been comming here every now and then and still read through everything.

I simply been dealing with alot in the past 1-2 months specially health wise which is the only reason why i haven't been around recently atleast not around to talk about stuff and create new topics etc.
