Don't think many people would have hung around after all the advice/abuse he got. Should change your name back though. Yes it wasn't definitely valuable. It should be in the rules that every newbie must read before posting. Benji is definitely braver than me! However, as brutal as you all may be, every bit of advice is honest and helpful, nobody can argue about that. -Kelly- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In hindsight, I completely understand the sh** I got, even now as a slightly more experienced NOOB I still want to tell some newcomers to go away which is why I suggested to the forum manager people persons to not just have FAQ but to have a dedicated NOOB section which is off limits to the pro's. However thinking about that now, would I personally choose to get advice from the real guys and take a beating or would I choose to listen to YouTube video makers and google specialists? I'd take a beating all day long 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You got a load of shit because you displayed obvious signs of being lobotomised. I think it's only now, when you look back, having come quite a way in the last few months, that you realise how brainless you appeared. You have however, always had a spine.

Rt Honorable Jim Reid,he ‘spit the dummy’with me,I think he went on to better things,probably now advising Elon Musk Blast from the past some of those names, but likewise I think some of the current crop are equally as memorable: Best Newbie : Definitely EPV and his progression this year Most Entertaining Newbie : MrV / Benji Best post: I nearly bought an Astra Most frustrating post: Anything about AutoTrader or where to advertise Most helpful member- Nick MK Outstanding technical knowledge award : Dave432109876 Most Annoying Subject- where can I buy stock-I'm new to the game What Do you Mean?
