Having read some of the comments from the SIDC Chairman and KS members, I offer the following response.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

I created the thread in the first instance as I was disappointed with the level of moderating applied to Prodrive Tony's "Name and shame time" thread regarding the problems he was having with the service (or lack of it) from Innovate Performance.

Whilst I accept that a degree of moderating maybe necessary from time to time, I also believe that the SIDC could have and should have lent its support to Tony. A letter from the SIDC Chairman with nearly 10,000 members behind him, to a poorly performing service provider would be hard to ignore.

I also thought back to the recent Kent Modded Show, which Kent Scoobies attended as part of and to promote & represent The SIDC. I am not aware of The SIDC offering or providing any support financial or otherwise to KS for this event.

So there you have it. Rightly or wrongly these were the reasons for the initial post.

However, some members decided to use the thread as a tool to question the integrity of and insult other members including Tony, Pele and I. The same members that do nothing for the club, are quiet and nowhere to be seen when all is ok, or things need to be done. However, they appear at the front of the queue to lambaste those running the show when things don't quite go as well as they would like. Members that put nothing in, but are happy to sit back whilst others do all of the hard work planning and organising events and meets.

Kent Scoobies is a great club, unfortunately some of the members aren't.

Thanks for that

1st no one has actually asked me to approach the company and to be honest by the sound of it my involvement would not have had any result, however I am more than happy to assist where I can when asked

2nd Moderation is always done in line with T&C's and as I said at the time kept to a minimum. The poster who was moderated has accepted my decision

3rd The SIDC doesn't provide any financial support!! We don't have funds to offer financial support what we do is make sure the stand is covered under our Public Liability cover which is a great cost to the club and provide Flags and banners as we get funds.

 

I don't think people should be lambasted for there opinions however I do think your post was an over reaction on a public forum as I would have happily explain the reasons for the moderation via PM

I hope that explains my position and I would be happy to answer further questions either via PM or email

 

Thanks
