craigdmcd Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 but big Terzo Neil was round the garage for a chat last night as I was splitting an engine out of a P1, and had to get the crank pulley bolt off. It had the wrong front pulley on it so the special tool wouldn't work, so whilst I locked the flywheel, Neil undone the front bolt. Just as well, it was tightened up to at least 300Nm. The Big Chap put all of his size behind it and undone it. We may slag him off, but he is always willing to help out when needed Top bloke

supremeweb Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 Not wishing to stir things up but I have no idea the relevance of this? I am sure that he is a nice guy, I am sure that he is a great help and has done so much for the Subaru community at large and will continue to. But who is slagging him off? What is the point of this thread? I was of the understanding that he was unhappy with the club and had decided himself to leave.
fai17 Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 Spoked to Neil on saturday and wished him well for his birthday. But i couldn't help him to get a table at my work because we are still refurbing!

What is the point of this thread? I was of the understanding that he was unhappy with the club and had decided himself to leave. The initial relevance is to thank Neil, as I know that he, as many others do, sometimes visit the site without logging in. I am always grateful for his help, as have many people been in the past, but few were quick to wish him well or try to change his mind when leaving. As for helping the Subaru community at large, I think you will find he will confine it more to people he considers friends, rather than the broader spectrum of this forum, which is a loss. If you are looking for a deeper meaning to this thread, it has about as much point as at least 50% of the threads on this site, so why shouldn't I post it?

If you are looking for a deeper meaning to this thread, it has about as much point as at least 50% of the threads on this site, so why shouldn't I post it? So why not title the thread "Big thanks to Terzo Neil" rather than implying that he is being slagged off. This way you could thank him publicly and if he visits the forum he could see it. You state that few were quick to wish him well, this does not mean that people are not thankfull of his services maybe they just know they will still see him. There were in fact 5 people wishing him well etc in the thread. It seems that you have a massive bee in your bonnet about the site(or some people) although you seem to be an active member . If you dont like it, do something about it! Negativity like "If you are looking for a deeper meaning to this thread, it has about as much point as at least 50% of the threads on this site, so why shouldn't I post it?" gets us nowhere.
